I am looking to replace my old office chair and would appreciate advice or recommendations.

Years back I bought a used Herman Miller Aeron, it was way out of warranty but also way cheaper vs buying new. Totally worth it, I do like mesh chairs and the Aeron is one of the best in its class. Plus it has a ton of adjustable levers if that's your thing.

The only thing I screwed up was the sizing, those chairs come in different sizes and I probably should have gone for one size smaller but it's not a big deal. Sizing is something to keep in mind when chair shopping, they're not all one size fits all and you may want something specific to your height/weight for better support.

Can you replace the meshing on those things or is that thing just trash after some mild wear?

Doubt it, kind of assumed once the mesh breaks the chair is done. Maybe someone handy with that stuff can rig up something to fix a chair like that?

To be fair the mesh seems pretty strong, mines hasn't broken thus far.
