1) They last forever.

2) Spare parts are readily available.

3) They're easy to work on.

4) They're 100% recyclable.

5) They're 100% made in the USA.

You can literally buy a beat-to-shit aeron on Craigslist, spend $120 on spare parts, and have a good-as-new aeron. I own two - one of which was bought new (scratch'n'dent) from Sit4less and the other which was I shit you not plucked out of the alley behind a restaurant (with the RAND Corporation inventory control sticker still on it). A pipe wrench and $50 in parts later and they're nearly indistinguishable.

I really should just make that happen. Sitting down is so fucking unhealthy anyway, and if you have to do it for long stretches, proper support is crucial to minimizing muscle problems and RSI...
