gonna check some of this stuff out. We fished a couple of chairs out of a dumpster that was full of them for disposal a couple years ago. Another company in our office building had a pipe burst and was replacing all the furniture with the insurance check. I just replaced the gas cylinder, but need to do something about the arms which dont stay in place any more. For the cylinder, i wasn't able to use a wrench. i had to hammer it out. i used a socket for a socket wrench and hit it with a hammer. I had to let the WD-40 soak for a week or 2 before i could get it to release from the chair base.
Cylinder is definately the hardest part! For the arm rests, theres screws at the bottom that seperate the cushion top from the frame, once you get that off, check if theres any loose bolts. Sometimes they can be too tightened as well so you might even need to loosen them. Good luck!
Hello impressive video mate, definitely gonna follow those step for the classic aeron i manage to get. Though wondering how is the new cylinder now that it's been few month
Absolute smasher of a video! I do need an advice, one of the parts of the butterfly posture fit of my aeron has broken, and i have no idea where to look for it... do you have any tips?
@fabiolopes1899 I haven't dealt with that particular part, but I searched on Amazon and they have a few replacement parts for that, I would also look on ebay, sometimes you can find authentic parts on ebay. Good luck!
Hi! Do u know if I can use bleach to clean the mesh and the plastic outer casing? Currently there is alot of disgusting stains I'm not worried about discoloration, (pretty sure there would be) more of whether it would damage the mesh/plastic
The final result of the chair looks like it just came out of the factory :D Great Work!
Absolutely how I imagined it to be. Thanks! :D
Thanks, very informative
quite difficult is an understatement when getting the mesh bottom to fit back over in the trenches. lol.
@@noearthlyclue 😂😂 was difficult
Nice video. Got a used Aeron back in 2022 and refurbished it just like this. Feels brand new still!
That's great! It will last you many more years, hopefully
Can you do a more in depth tutorial on painting the Aeron? Would love to see it in a unique color thats different from OEM.
my new classic Aeron looks great thanks to you, appreciate it
@prestonhineharrison I appreciate you 🙏 thanks for trusting the process

Thanks, I'm glad this can help you out. The cylinder is perfectly fine right now, my estimate is it will continue to work for a few years

They say NOT to use solvents or abrasive kitchen cleaners. So I would stick with soap and water - may take some time but it's worth it.
@@karmicmentality took your advice and washed it twice. now it's looking a lot better. thank you!!
@rwoosh_master You are most welcome! :D
Do you sell chairs? In Canada /gta area?
Nope, video is just for anyone who needs help doing it themselves. Not selling

You can definately try
100 turns of tension adjustment??? what the hell? Thats crazy
@@FK-we1dp ahaha 🤣 it may be an exaggerated number but it’s definitely a lot of turns
