Engineered Now Headrest For Classic Herman Miller Aeron Chair H4 for Classic Lead

Product Information

Atlas uses the same pellicle fabric as Herman Miller to match your Aeron Chair, whatever the color you have. The Atlas Headrest comes in various versions, including Classic, Remastered, and Gaming.

Both can adjust the depth, height and angle. We will say that the Engineered Now headrest should be more adjustable as it has more room to adjust for depth. The Engineered Now headrest also has an active free-flowing design that adjusts while the user tilts the chair.

Used Herman Miller Mirra 2 Full Spec

BUT if you have a Herman Miller Aeron chair and you want a headrest, you really don't have much alternative. And fortunately for something which is the only choice, it is a very good headrest. The Atlas Headrest comes with a three-year warranty. However, the fabric only has a 90-day warranty. Whilst an improvement on the original designs I'm surprised at the high price now it's arrived, I get the impression this headrest has been priced according to the chair price which isn't justified after all it's 99% plastic. Whilst I appreciate Herman Miller should have considered offering a head rest option for the Aeron, it's good that VendorGear have designed one, unfortunately version 2 is flawed but better than version 1. Engineered Now had been around for almost a decade and was the first to release a fully adjustable mesh headrest for the Classic Aeron chairs. You can tell that the inventor is very concerned about the headrest’s durability, function and adjustability aspect. This matches the direction of how Aerons were designed, adaptable to fit most people. The Aeron comes with a 12yr warranty, this head rest looks as though it may last up to perhaps 5yrs depending on use. For the price it should have been designed in keeping with the chairs design life. At this rate if I keep my chair 10yrs+ I'm most likely going to require at least two head rests.

The cushion is huge and wide for Atlas, but the surface is flatter. They call it the suspension mesh, and it is a little springy, which is quite similar to the HR03/HR04. When you first receive your Atlas Headrest, we encourage you to try out many different positions and angles with both the vertical and horizontal adjustments, as well as the upward and downward tilt possibilities. Find a tension setting on your knobs that will support your head while allowing for easy adjustability. We have a guide to help you through the process of selecting the proper headrest, but before you go there, here are 4 steps you might find helpful. It appears that the Engineered Now Headrest patent has probably expired. Imitation Engineered One headrests are flooding the market, most are coming from China, and we have bought at least 10 from different factories and tried them out. Some have a very toxic odour, some have a flimsy build, and some are ill-fitting.The best seems to the from Taiwan, which is believed to be the OEM at some point. In fact, they have rectified some issue, only problem is they are much more expensive than the other replicas, and we think it’s worth the extras. The HR04’s size is somewhere between Atlas and HR03. It is highly adjustable, but it rests at a taller height. We recommend the HR04 option be considered only for people with 180cm / 5 feet 11 and above. Herman Miller prides itself on the quality of its products, and all of them have warranties for parts and labor. The Aeron Chair, one of its most popular and coveted office chairs, comes with a 12-year warranty for parts and labor. Other than some minor tweaks to improve the design a little. Can’t tell the quality difference between the OEM and the original Engineered One Headrest. You can see for yourself below. The biggest difference is the PRICE, and it’s becoming very popular.
