  • I wish I had bought it sooner.
Size: H4 for Classic Color: Carbon
I want to start this review off with a quote from another review that won me over: "I wish I would have bought it sooner". The design, materials, and color are a perfect match for my Aeron charcoal chair. I'll get to this later, but customer support was excellent. This review is for the H4 version. I'm a programmer and a while back I purchased a Herman Miller Aeron chair. However, during some intense programming sessions, my neck muscles would start to bunch up. This headrest is exactly what I needed to handle it. Now that I can lean back to support my neck, and it actually helps me with my posture. I was seriously considering purchasing another chair with a headrest when I saw this add on. The price was a little more than I wanted to spend, but it really is a perfect match and works very well. Considering I've had the chair for about 10 years, I expect it is worth it. Fit: In regards to fit, I'm 5'9. When the chair is in the upward position, I use the top downward slope as support. When reclining I tilt the rest up and use the front part. It fits quite well. Adjustment is pretty quick with the clamping lever which is easy to reach, but for the most part I just tilt the upper pivot. Support: The first one that I ordered had a slight manufacturing defect where one side wasn't fully pushed in. It worked fine, it just looked wonky. I contacted support and they got back to me immediately and sent out a new one. Adjustments: (This is not as big of a deal as I probably make it sound, but thought I would mention it.) There are two pivot points on this headrest (which in the pictures, you can tell from the two circles). The first is the bottom part which is controlled by the clamp. The second one is higher up behind the headrest, which is controlled by the tension of two screws. If I'm repositioning the upper head rest a lot, I eventually need to retention the screws. Its really not a big deal, but thought I would mention it. The plastic caps that cover the screws have kind of a fine edge. To keep from marring them, I used a credit cart to work around the cap and pull it up. As a side note, they include spare caps in the package if you do mangle it :) I just keep the caps off for now, but I'll probably just put them back in and not fully seat them to make removal easier. I'm quite happy with the product and considering I use it every day, well worth it. ... show more

  • Perfect Addition to the Aeron Chair
Size: H4 for Classic Color: Carbon
This headrest for the Aeron Chair is a brilliant addition to an already outstanding chair. It not only works seamlessly but also complements the chair's design aesthetic beautifully. This headrest offers an impressive range of adjustability, allowing you to tailor it to your exact needs. While it's true that it's not the most budget-friendly accessory, it's in line with the Aeron Chair's premium quality, and I expected such an investment. My primary reason for getting this headrest was to improve my posture while sitting, and it has delivered on that front superbly. It's a must-have if you value comfort and ergonomics in your workspace. Its performance, design compatibility, and posture-improving capabilities make it an excellent investment for anyone seeking the utmost comfort and support while working or sitting. ... show more

  • Easy to Install and Vital Component
Size: H4 for Classic Color: Carbon
When I got my Herman Miller chair off of Facebook Marketplace a few years ago, I was highly pleased with it but felt that it was missing something: a headrest. I thought that I needed to purchase a larger chair but upon browsing Amazon one day, this popped up and it was instantly what I was looking for! When I finally received the product, I noted the high quality. It was solid. The color matched perfectly despite not having the sticker affixed to the bottom of the chair, indicating which color to get as per manufacturer's instructions. Without reading the instructions I quite easily put it together to the chair and voila! It was the missing piece. I got the H4 version as I'm 5'11" and it was just right. Now I can go about working and resting my head easily with this new addition to the chair. I took one star off because there appears to be some warping of the mesh on the right side of the headrest (you can see it in the pic). ... show more

  • With a $2.00 modification and adjustments it's PERFECT!
Size: H4 for Remastered Color: Graphite
This is the H4 In Graphite for the "Remastered" Herman Miller Aeron chair. This quality and finish makes it look as if it's a genuine Aeron accessory. Take the time and READ the instruction manual to INSTALL and adjust the headrest AFTER you've adjust the chair to your comfort. (The directions for the chair are on Herman Miller's website.) After adjusting it for my comfort, I tightened the all of the headrest's hardware a 1/4 turn clockwise to hold the settings a little better. EN doesn't recommend this, as they say the factory settings allow for easy adjustments. I agree, but I wanted it tighter than it was. I never thought an Aeron could be improved, but this headrest does it- DEFINITELY worth the $180.00! THE MODIFICATION: I had the same problem that many people had, in that the headrest would not stay adjusted for height, and there's no way to tighten it to keep the headrest from falling. I decided to use 1/4" ID fuel line to solve this. 1 foot of this product cost $2.00 at my local hardware store. This hose is reinforced inside to maintain its shape, which makes it very strong. To lock the headrest in at maximum height, I needed two pieces that were 2 3/8" long. (I cut them from the part of the hose that has no writing.) I then a piece in a vice just tight enough to hold it still while I carefully cut through ONE side of it lengthwise. Use a new blade in a utility knife and SLOWLY make 3 straight cuts, each a little deeper than the last, following the previous cut. You will end up with a sleeve that fits perfectly over the rod. Open the slit wide enough to go around the rod and slip it on. The hose will close up perfectly around the rod. You won't even see the slit. They are very stiff and don't look too obvious. Mine are on a Graphite (Gray) Aeron. If you have a Carbon (Black) chair, they'll blend in even better! Adjust the headrest where you'd like it, measure how much tubing you need ABOVE the bracket, and follow the directions above. See pictures... ... show more

  • Beautiful addition to the Aeron
Size: H4 for Classic Color: Carbon
This headrest fixed my stiff neck issue! Supportive and completely adjustable, my Aeron is now really comfortable to work AND relax in. It really is a no brainer addition.
