Perhaps a bit over priced but still worth it. Fully adjustable and great quality, it really supports you and kind of molds to your body. Highly recommend for any home office

My lower back is so happy!

I'm sad to have to write this, because other than my one complaint this really is an almost perfect chair.. But.. unfortunately.. it was designed to be exclusively for tiny people.
I'll leave my measurements here, if you're anything near my size DO NOT BUY. The chair has constant pressure points on my hips, and it feels like it's trying to rotate my legs inwards and force them together, even if you're a bit smaller than me you still might hate how it forces your legs closed.
I'm 6'5", 210lbs, I wear a 34"-36" waist in most pants.
The buy page *really* needs to have warnings about this.

I have this chair at work. Due to Covid-19 I am teleworking 100% .... developed issues with my sciatic nerve....ordered this chair for home ..... issues are going away!!!

What I like the most is that..... the chair came fully assembled...roll out the box and SIT!!!! Amazing!!!!!

I will say it's very comfortable and aesthetically pleasing to look at but I'm not impressed how the fabric at the front of the seat bunches up when sitting in it with loose folds, doesn't inspire confidence in the longevity of the seat and I can feel these folds under my thighs. At this price would expect little things like this to be a non-issue. I've confirmed with other owner's that is how it's designed.

Also not a fan how it's made mostly of plastic at this price. I feel like if you're paying almost 10x more than a big box store budget chair then it should be almost 10x times better, and it's not. I purchased from a local dealer and I think it's worth about half of what I paid relative to an average chair, and it was considerably cheaper than they sell it on here.

Important to consider that much of the cost is for the warranty, which I will say is pretty great if they honour it.

I have this chair at my office at work. When we started working from home exclusively I realized just how great this chair is. My back is thanking me daily!

I am in the fortunate position of having work pay for my chairs for a home office. I have one of the first versions of the Mirra which I fought over with my girlfriend during our COVID home stay, so ordered a Mirra 2 for myself. I could have chosen the Aeron or the Embody, but I really have loved the Mirra chair and the flexfront. I am 6'3" and 195lbs and this chair supports my legs better than the Aeron and I love the mesh seat. My girlfriend is 5'3" and she loves the fit as well. That is because of how configurable the chair is. The only thing that I have changed, is the roller blade wheels I added to the chair, as they are super smooth and fun.

White glove return service is a nightmare. It's been 3 weeks and I still haven't had a call for someone to pick up the chair for my return to be processed. In fact the new chair I ordered to replace it will be here in 4 days.

Very comfortable office chair

I actually ordered the Cosm chair, however, Herman Miller mistakenly delivered the Mirra 2. As I await delivery of the chair I originally ordered, I was told I could use the Mirra 2.

As I sat on the char, I felt something pushing into my rear-end. I can't figure out which mechanism is causing this. Another explanation could be that I'm actually experiencing a pinching sensation from the seat-back and the seat when the come together as I sit.

Aside from the above ergonomic challenge, it's quite simply an ugly chair.

I enjoyed this chair for a couple of years until I noticed it began showing a small rip in the seat. It quickly ripped the entire seat fabric straight down the middle, making it unusable. I make sure to never sit with my keys, pens, etc... to cause something like this to happen. I know the cost o this chair and have been very careful.

This seat was a present from my parents for getting a new job I really desired. They purchased it from a showroom in Pennsylvania, which has since closed.

Apparently, there is a sticker underneath of my seat that gives the green light for Herman Miller to process a warranty claim. This sticker is nowhere to be found, and likely, I pulled it off not knowing what it was. Also, I clean my chair habitually once a week with spray. If this truly is a sticker you are using for proof of purchase, I am certain it's gone because of that reason.

I have reached out several times to Herman Miller, each time which resulted in long delays in response (not due to Coronavirus delays). And everytime I received a response and wrote back, it would be met with that next email not being answered, and I'd have to reach out again. The staff is friendly, I'm not saying they were rude, but this is what happened to me. No one wanted to take on my request, so it was met with silence after the initial response.

While I understand the importance of having a receipt for warranty claims, it was TWO YEARS AGO and I don't keep my receipts. My parents cannot figure out the name of the place of purchase, and it has now closed down, so I am stuck with a $1,000 chair that ripped, with no one from Herman Miller willing to help me out to process the warranty claim. They said I can purchase a new replacement part which is $150. I'm sorry, but there comes a point where a company could see past the fact that a paper receipt and a paper sticker has gone missing, and take care of their customers. I will not purchase another chair from them, and I will be sure to share this story on every social channel/review site I am able to. For $1,000 (being the low-end of the cost of your chairs), you should do better. I have a $300 pair of hiking boots that started to tear along the sides. I called them up, and they didnt ask me for a receipt or anything. They asked for a photo of the boots so they can examine it, and then a week later, I had my boots back completely fixed up. No questions asked. Because it's a high-end shoe brand company that took care of their customer. You should have considered doing the same.

Love the chair. Good back support and adjustability. I like the way the seat is made because it is supportive and i never get a sore tailbone or behind! I bought it for telecommuting and its worth the money.

When I sat in the Mirra 2 demo chair at the showroom, I thought it was comfortable. It wasn't until after I used it regularly for a few months at home, and started sitting in it for hours at a time, that I realized it was NOT comfortable. The plastic frame of the seat that surrounds the mesh fabric seat material jabs into my legs if I have my legs spread apart at a comfortable angle. The only way to avoid having the front corners of the seat frame jab my legs would be to squeeze my legs together. For me this is an uncomfortable, unnatural position. There are many nice adjustment features on this chair, but no way to adjust the frame of the seat from being super uncomfortable to sit on for any extended period of time.

The arm rest broke off just from me bumping it with my elbow. The chair is also extremely uncomfortable and the back is hard plastic with no padding and my tailbone goes numb after 45 minutes.

I have a 19 or so year old Mirra. The back flexes and accommodates your back as you twist and move around, not entirely unlike the Embody (which I also have and love). The only problem I've had in all this time is some oil leaking from the seat piston which was repaired under warranty. 2nd favorite chair ever after the Embody.

great chair

This chair was great for over 6 years, but now the back plastic has split right where the adjustable lumbar support is. I thought this light and airy Herman Miller chair would be the last chair I ever needed. :<

I used similar chair for 3.5 years at office, it's durable and comfortable, that's why I bought it . The only thing I regret is that I chose fixed arms instead of adjustable ones. Would totally recommend!

I have a 2011 Mirra chair, and over the years the back plastic softens and flexes too much when sitting in the chair. The repair was denied due to "normal wear and tear." I would expect to get the full 12 years out of the chair and I would highly recommend not buying chairs with plastic backs.

Chair back split after less than a year.

10 out of 20 chairs we received in 2018 are split.

Very comfortable. very configurable high quality and nice looking

I got one of these for my home office. Great chair. It's one of the best looking ergonomic office chairs I've seen.

We were using that chair at work and I wanted one at home also.

I went from sitting in a chair that gave me constant back pain and no support to this. I now look forward to going to work and sitting in this chair. Not only has it alleviated my back pain and improved my posture but I love to look at it (I got the white plastic) and the contrast between the whites and the blacks. I can not recommend this chair more highly.

Brought this mirra2 with 15 % off from thanksgiving week deal . The back support is really amazing . I really like it.

Nice looking chair, comfortable but tears the back pocket buttons off...

The slots in the back are the right size to hook your back pocket buttons and rip them off. I have no work pants with buttons any more.
Aside from that, the unpadded back is horribly uncomfortable. Add to that the strange seat shortener that makes the front edge of the chair poke into your legs uncomfortably, and the armrest filling that is seperated fom the armrest shell, making the armrests feel like strange childrens toys that shift and move about under your arm.
The top of the back is unsupported plastic so that it turns white and breaks eventually. Either that, or the back will snap off where it connects to the back support.
There are 50 or so at the place I work, so don't think this is an isolated case.

I have always been skeptical about these chairs - they look unpadded and rather bare-bones. However, about two years ago I started working in an office where Mirra chairs were used and they are quite frankly amazing. I am an achondroplastic dwarf, meaning it is hard to find chairs that fit me perfectly, and almost all chairs leave me aching after a little while without constant shifting. This is the first office chair that hasn't done that, and it has 100% sold me on Mirra chairs for my future needs.

This chair is very well built. I was tired of buying $200.00 chairs that break in 2 years or less. In the long run, buying quality pays off in many cases and this is one of them. I would have given this chair a 5 star but the arm rest are low in my opinion and I did not want to pay for options when already spending $700.00. At any rate, I highly recommend Herman Miller chairs because of their solid build quality !

Great chair. Better back support than the aeron. No pushing forwards of the shoulders that the embody does. However, the outer perimeter of the chair is felt when sitting, so your leg muscles might not receive equal distribution of your weight across the inner vs outer portions of your hamstring. Design flaw i think, as the embody and other foam based chairs dont have this flaw. Still the best herman Miller chair though in my opinion except for maybe the eames soft pad chair, tho the arm rests suck on that one. Not disappointing by significant means, but has room for improvement in the seat border for weight distribution

I am 6' 3" tall and medium frame body size. I was looking for a seat with enough height and seat depth to support my hamstrings and keep pressure off of my joints. I ordered a fully loaded Mirra 2 hair and to my surprise found out that the chair looked smaller when I pulled it out of the box. The materials and craftsmanship is excellent however my hamstrings were sore after sitting on the chair for few hours. Back support is excellent and the chair was fully loaded, with every possible setting. On calling the customer service, I was told that the seat depth is 16" unlike 25" mentioned on the website. They have not corrected the dimensions -- as I write this review. I returned it with no hassles, free shipping both ways. Customer service was excellent...

I've been using an office chair for almost 50 years and have purchased many over that time. Some were expensive and some, not-so-much. I've also had back issues for many of those years. I've seen the Mirra 2 chair many times but thought the price was a bit too much. Finally I decided to bite the bullet and purchase one. I'm not sorry at all. It is the most comfortable and supportive chair I've ever owned. It's like sitting on a cloud. With all the possible adjustments available there is no excuse for not having a chair that is perfectly adjusted to you. I can sit at my desk for hours with no pain at all. Don't hesitate! Go out and buy a Mirra 2!

When i'm seated, I'm fully tilted back probably 75% of the time. The perforated backs of these chairs are not strong enough to support this seated position for an extended period of time. After less than 2 years, many of the perforations have cracked and ripped. It's only a matter of time before the back will be completely useless. my Mirra 1 suffered the same fate. I was hoping the Mirra 2 would be more durable. Great chair otherwise, but if you're a lean-back sitter, you should think twice.

I love this chair!

I am so glad I splurged on this chair. It is beautiful, functional and well made. My visits to the chiropractor are lessening. I am a 5'11" female and find my chair very comfortable. I added all features except the movable arms and the tilt control. If I did it over, I would do the tilt control. The chair leans forward naturally for good posture, and this took some getting used to. I spent a few days adjusting the tightness of the recline until I got comfortable. All parts work very well and are clearly well made. The teal is beautiful and the butterfly suspension fabric is extremely comfortable.

I was looking for a chair that was less obtrusive than the standard Aeron chair and the Mirra is perfect. It is sturdy and comfortable; just what I was looking for.

The chair is very well built and can last for years. It has several parts that are adjustable to your body type and that's good. One thing I learned is it can't go any lower than the preset and my computer station is a little low so it's a bit of a problem. Otherwise, it's very sturdy. A little pricey but may be worth it in the long run.

I was able to visit the Herman Miller store in NYC and try out the chair and knew how comfortable it was, but was unsure of the color scheme. I decided to play it safe, with the all black, and so glad I did. It fits perfectly in my music studio! Both in design, color, function, I can sit for hours, crafting music, and quite happy. So happy with my purchase.

There is color variation with the product and the seat portion is not comfortable.

When I emailed Herman Miller to inquire about the color variation I received an abrupt and unhelpful response.

I would not recommend this product.

Use this chair at home and at the office. Offers all adjustments necessary to maximize comfort. Easily modified to accommodate keyboard work, writing, or online presentations.

Although I didn't get all the bells and whistles, I did get the lumbar support and its fabulous. The teal color is beautiful and I Love how lightweight and movable this chair is. the only con I would say is the edge on the seat is a hard rubbery material and depending how i sit in it, it can annoy my leg. This would probably be different if I had gotten an adjustable seat. All and all I am so glad I purchased this chair.

I must have tried over 20 chairs in different retail stores and left only disappointed. I decided to look for one via internet and it was the best decision I made. I absolutely love my chair and can I say it is light and so comfortable that I loose track of time and how long I have sat on it. Best buy ever!!

Very nice chair, but had to return first order that did not have the adjustable seat. Unless you are very short, it is critical to order the tilt seat or you will feel a hard line against your upper thighs. Great service--they made exchanging the chair for the proper one very easy. Chair is beautiful to look at too!

I got rid of a Chinese made leather office chair (not Herman Miller) that had gotten uncomfortable (after 2-3 years) and was starting to cause serious lower back pain...I'm only 38 and in good shape, I shouldn't have back pain like that!

I believe in buying American made whenever possible so I decided to get this chair. Yes, these chairs are expensive but it was worth every penny. My back pain was gone immediately after I switched to this chair. I can sit in it for a full work day/week and not even think about it. I wouldn't buy anything else again.

I haven't had it long enough to say how it will hold up but initial impression is it's very well made and will last for a long time. My experience with USA made products is they last several times longer than the cheap imported stuff (like my last chair) and there's a lot of value in the longevity.

Everything about my Mirra 2 chair says high quality, and I love the features/adjustability of the chair (I bought mine with most of the options). For someone with back/neck issues, I have found the chair to be quite comfortable - I have had the chair for the past month or so, using it daily at work. My only issue: would love to see an optional headrest.

I am a jewelry artist and sit most of the time in my studio. When my office supply store chair broke I decided to finally invest in a Herman Miller Mirra 2 chair. I am 100% pleased after using the chair up to 10 hours a day. This chair is so comfortable...no comparison to any chair I have had before. It does not trigger my lower back pain.

I selected the upgrade for the casters because I move around between two back-to-back work benches and a supply cabinet that is just out of reach. This option is fabulous. The chair glides beautifully and is amazingly quiet on the hard floor. I would highly recommend this option.

I adjust the seat height frequently depending on which bench and tools I am using. Adjustment is easy.

Lumbar support and extended seat adjustments work well...I am so glad I opted for both these features.

I am move frequently while seated to reach for different items around my work area and the back of the chair gives me great support and flexibility at the same time.

I recommend this chair for anyone who needs to sit for long periods while working.

I own a media company. I edit video and photography during the day. This is my first Herman Miller chair. I upgraded to have all the bells and whistles. I loved the look and feel right out of the box. The adjustments on the chair are mostly great, everything works as expected, and there is some clever engineering to get just about the perfect fit. I wish I could get a little more out of the lumbar support, maybe another inch. And I wish there was a way to lock or tighten the arm rests (from pivoting inward/outward). It's not a big problem but I tend to rotate the chair as I sit down and often the arm rests pivot out of place. I'm really impressed with how quiet and sturdy the chair is. The only comfort issue I'm having is on the occasional really long days (8-12 hours) the outsides of my legs feel fatigued. I'm getting up every hour to move around on days like this, but still gets uncomfortable toward the end of the day. I'm a skier and cyclist and admittedly have large thighs. Maybe wide hips for a guy I don't know. My butt and thighs rest against the seems of the soft mesh seat material and the plastic and rubber outside edges of the seat. Maybe it's just a little too narrow of a seat for my build. As a reference I'm 6'0" 195lb.

Side note, but worth mentioning: The color I received first wasn't quite as expected and clashed with my office colors. I called HermanMiller and they were very nice and offered to switch it out for another option. I had the next one in a couple weeks and it looks great. Thanks!

I ordered a Mirra 2 chair and received it within 4-5 weeks. I like the ergonomic design, good back support, and the variety in color options. Overall I am happy with the purchase except one thing. The seat depth. Recommendation: go for the adjustable option...When I was placing my order, they offered the option for adjustable depth for an additional cost. I decided to pass on that option, since I would be the only one using the chair and didn't see a need for adjusting the seat-depth. The problem is that what they call "standard depth" is not comfortable if you are taller than 5 ft 10. The standard seat feels too short and not comfortable on the back of my knees at all. Other than that, everything else is great with the chair.

I sat in the original Mirra for over 6 years everyday.

It was my favorite chair because unlike the Areon or others, it's nearly impossible to adjust the Mirra to be uncomfortable. This is perfect for a shared office environment. No more "who messed up my chair?" If you wanted to adjust something you can just turn the big knob and you're good to go.

At home, it's also excellent. Very comfortable for long periods of time. The innovative back and comfortable mesh seat are really great.

The Mirra 2 takes this to the next level. The added cushion on the back makes it even more comfortable. I really like this chair.

I broke my original Mirra a few issues (several years apart). It was so great they sent someone to my home to repair it for free multiple times. The 12 year warranty is also really valuable and definitely helps justify the price for such a premium chair.
