Posture Fit vs. Lumbar
Got this one (with posture fit) for my home office. I have an identical one with lumbar support at my work office. I like to feel the support on my back. I feel the lumbar more than the posture fit. BUT, the lumbar support is felt all across the lower back, while posture fit is designed to keep your spine straight. I came across a report from a study comparing lumbar vs. posture fit using 80+ participants. The study found that posture fit improved their spine in most cases on most measurements. I am generally skeptical of studies like these, but after using posture fit for a couple of weeks I don't get that numb feeling in my back after sitting for a long time. So I like it more than lumbar. The caveat seems to be - you need to push your butt as far as you can against the back of the chair (the proper way of sitting). If you tend to sit on your lower back with your butt on the rim of the chair - no lumbar or posture fit will help you. It is not too hard to correct the posture, but it's definitely a conscious effort. Just an FYI.
Construction of the Chair
The chair is very sturdy and quiet when turn around, etc. You can definitely tell that it's top quality. Should last a very long time based on the feel of it and the history of Aerons. It has the standard Aeron adjustment features. Its mesh material is simply the best that I've tried. It's not cuddly like leather, but feels good and airs well, so you never have a sweaty back, etc.
My Conclusion
I honestly don't know how an office chair can get any better for my requirements: comfortable, good for back, sturdy, and quiet. The only thing that could improve it is a massager of the back (ok, I am kidding). Got it for $660 in "used - like new" condition. Perfect for the price.

Bought this from Madison Seating and satisfied with condition
Bought this from Madison Seating and satisfied with condition.Casters are smooth on the hard floor you see in the picture.Assembling it wasn't easy because of posturefit but ok.I can't say the mesh is absolutely new but couldn't find any damages.For the price it's good.
