4.0 out of 5 stars
Wonderfully comfortable and attractive task chair,
By
This review is from: Herman Miller Mirra Chair; Fully Loaded; Color: Graphite (Kitchen)
Needing to replace my old desk chair -- and acknowledging my advancing years -- I decided to find out what was the least expensive chair to offer blissful, sit-all-day comfort. After plopping down on every name ergonomic chair you've ever heard of (Leap, Freedom, etc.), I pronounced the Mirra the clear winner. (The Aeron is remarkably comfortable too, but more expensive.) I bought a loaded Mirra and have been very satisfied, with one little quibble for which I have deducted a star. That is, the two screws holding the chair's back to the base worked themselves loose after a few months of use. I consider this unacceptable in a $700 chair and caution all purchasers not to throw out the hex wrench Herman Miller gives you to tighten the screws. I have now tried applying some Threadlocker Blue liquid to the screws and hope this will solve the problem. I also think Herman Miller shouldn't charge a $150 premium over the basic model for the privilege of adjustable lumbar support.

Best chair for studying!,
This review is from: Herman Miller Mirra Chair; Fully Loaded; Color: Graphite (Kitchen)
I am a med student with minor lower back problems from years of hockey and rowing in college. I also have a back condition called spondylolisthesis. I bought this chair because of the amazing amount of strain it takes off of my back when I study (which is a lot of the time). I tried the rest of the herman miller chairs and the humanscale freedom and liberty chairs, and the mirra was clearly the most comfortable. I feel like it has all the features of the aeron with half the knobs. The mirra adjusts to you since the seat and the back are flexible. It has perfect lumbar support, and the chair just looks so sexy.
I do recline sometimes, and it is very comfortable while reclining. I would say that if you are mostly a recliner, it would be a good idea to check out the humanscale freedom with the headrest because it was great while reclining but not so great while just sitting up. Get the mirra fully loaded so you can have the extra adjustable options not on the basic model. One review on here is wrong and claims that the only difference between the basic and loaded chairs is adjustable lumbar support; the loaded has adjustable arms, adjustable seat pan depth, tilt limiter, and adjustable lumbar support. Some people complained about the building of the chair. I honestly cannot believe how whiney they are. You slide the back of the chair on and then use a 13mm socket to put in 2 bolts. That is all you have to do. If you screw them in at the proper torque they won't fall out, and if they do, take the 30 seconds to screw them in again. You really dont even need a torque wrench (I didn't use one)... just make sure you tighten the bolts but dont go nuts with cinching them down. Finally, if you try out this chair and do not like it that much, the herman miller Equa 2 was really comfortable and worth a test run. Plus you can find used equa 2 chairs on ebay for ~$200-300 shipped.

Learn from my mistake -- try before you buy.,
This review is from: Herman Miller Mirra Chair; Fully Loaded; Color: Graphite (Kitchen)
With all the glowing reviews, you'd probably assume that this chair is pretty comfortable. That may be for some folks but if you're looking, I urge you to sit in one with an open mind. I wish I'd done this because I ended up hating this chair and returning it... losing a fair amount of money in shipping and restock fees in the process.
The main problem is with the seat. While the mesh is just fine in the rear-end portion of the seat(quite cushy with lots of depth to its flex) it's the opposite in the hamstring area. The mesh is still there, but because of the location of the chair's frame in this area, the mesh isn't allowed the same depth of flex. The result is that there's pressure pushing up on your hamstrings, which cuts off circulation and it's really noticeable. I'm positive I had the chair adjusted correctly at one point during the time I had it. My feet were on the floor, my legs weren't dangling, I wasn't sitting on my head, I weigh 175 pounds and I'm not freakishly proportioned. Bottom line, you shouldn't have to think "am I sitting in this chair properly? What am I doing wrong? Is it me? Am I not worthy of this chair? It sure costs a lot, so it can't be the chair's fault, etc. etc." A chair is either comfortable or it's not. Sit in one before you buy. Sit in one before you buy. Sit in one before you buy.
