Yes! Pro-tip: If you see an aeron chair on the side of the road for trash pickup, take it!
99% of the time, when people throw out office chairs it’s because the gas cylinder failed (gets stuck down). A new cylinder is only $20!
Just be prepared to whack TF out of that old one to get it out, haha. They can be really stuck in there after 5-10 years of people sitting on the chair.
Don’t be afraid to use a huge ass plumbing wrench and scratch TF out of the old one 👍
Have a search for “Chair cylinder removal tool” for another $5-10 it’s a matter of turning a few allen bolts to get the cylinder out and not risking damaging everything.
Bonus, mine has made its money back from mates dropping me a few quid to replace their gas struts.
