I would try the Herman Millers for a while before buying them. Like a lot of saddles, they seem to either work for you or not. Despite the adjustability, I always seem to end up in uncomforable right angles with these chairs. I know that right angles are ergonomically sound, but unfortunately my posture is generally not, and the result is a lot of inconscious compensating and shifting to try to maintain my normal slouch. We have them in my office, and I'm convinced they're a big part of the reason my shoulder has been a mess for a while. (N.B. This was not the case when I had the run-of-the-mill, low-backed office chairs, which I used for years with no apparent shouder issues.)
