what experts say
- >“Unlike many office chairs that focus on one or two adjustment points, the Aura allows you to customize virtually every aspect of your seating position (lumbar, headrest, footrest, arms, tilt). This level of customization is rare at its price point and compares to much more expensive models that can cost upwards of $1,000.”— The Spruce
- >“We love the footrest, which extends and retracts smoothly. We can comfortably sit, lean back, and even recline (to a degree).”— The Spruce
