Aeron chair repair a success with this part. It has been a week since installation and we are very satisfied. No issues what so ever getting this to fit. The hard part was removing the old cylinder. A exuberant amount of force with a pipe wrench and a rubber mallet and about 40-50 full force swings. But that has nothing to do with this replacement part. I just wanted to note it in case there are other people wondering if replacing the Aeron chair cylinder is DIY. It IS!! And this piece fit perfectly and was 100% functional for our 20 year old chair. It has been only a week and I will make an update if we have any issues. We saved so much money with this!

I ordered this Office Chair Gas Lift Cylinder to replace the one from my Flash Furniture High Back Black Leather Multifunction Executive Swivel Chair. This replacement is working perfectly. It was easy to install. Once the old cylinder was removed (that was the hard part) just insert the replacement and put back any parts you might have removed to get to it. The one that came with the chair lasted 3 1/2 years of daily use (working about 11 hours a day 5 days a week). Hopefully this one will last another 3 1/2 years since the chair overall is still in great shape.

Worked good for the first few months. But it falls on its own now. I’m not sure why. When I recline in my desk chair all of the air seeps out of the shock and it declines all the way down. All long as I leave the chair straight up and down this doesn’t seem to happen AS BAD, but it does still happen. You get what you pay for, and I will be replacing mine with a heavier duty one.

This fit an executive chair I bought several years ago at an office supply box store. I had a terrible time extracting the old gas cylinder, but eventually read a post online with wisdom that I’d like to pass on to you.IF YOUR OLD CYLINDER GETS STUCK, 1. Spray lube (I used spray silicone lube) and leave it for at least 30 minutes. Spray both sides of the stuck area if you can reach them. 2. If the gas cylinder is stuck in the base (like mine was), then have someone lift the chair several inches in the air and then you hammer the base part, preferably with a rubber mallet to prevent damage to the base. Eventually, the base will not be able to sustain the blows and it will fall to the floor, finally dislodging the gas cylinder.My gas cylinder was also stuck into the bottom of the seat. Eventually, I had someone turn the seat of the chair upside down, and then I had them hold the stuck gas cylinder, which was pointing up. I hammered the rest of the metal seat hardware into which the cylinder was stuck, and eventually the base of the seat fell off of the gas cylinder to the floor. It wasn’t the easiest job, but it was the only way I could figure out to get these very, very stuck pieces out.Good luck!
