I was looking for a chair with Aeron qualities at an affordable price, so of course, the Space Air Grid was an obvious choice. The chair was very easy to assemble, and the parts are of overall high quality. The casters worked great on my medium pile carpet and the design should blend in well with any modern workspace. However, the medium sized chair (standard size) is big. It is more like a size C Aeron chair (the largest size), and not a size B (the normal size). I am 5' 7" 150 lbs and it felt too large for me. It also did not go low enough for my feet to be flat on the ground. This is important to not only relieve pressure from your thighs, but to help maintain proper posture. There is also a fair amount of movement even when the adjustable back is set to the 'non moving' position. After an hour or so I found myself squirming in the chair.
I debated getting a foot rest and keeping the chair, but with my desk setup, it would not be practical to get one. If I was just able to lower it down an inch or so more, I would have given it near 5 stars for quality and price, but alas, it is just "okay."
I returned the chair and ended up purchasing an Aeron Size B Basic chair, the difference is like night and day. When you sit in the Aeron the chair adjusts itself to your body. Your back is instantly supported and the pressure seems to disappear. Yes, they are expensive, but if you sit at a desk for the greater portion of the day - it is worth it's weight in gold (and it weighs around 45 lbs!)
Pros of the Space Air Grid
- High quality materials
- Easy to assemble
- Attractive modern looks
- Nice large casters
Cons
- Not adjustable enough
- Too high
- Uncomfortable for 8-10 hour work days
