Fern

Jackpot. You can very likely buy the plastic lumbar piece that goes in the Very directly from Haworth for like 15 bucks. These tend to break but they are kind of important on the Haworth mesh chairs (and IMHO, much better back support than the Fern, light years better than the Leap lumbar support).

The Leap seat is basically the most plush seat on an actual ergonomic chair. It's the GOAT IMHO but their backrest is shit. It sounds like the actual issue is you like to slouch. Most ergonomic chairs encourage you to sit upright, because that's what they're built to do. The Haworth Fern is a little

Yea unfortunately they don't get longer with the leap Plus, just wider. I moved to a Haworth Fern for a longer seat pad and a taller back, but the build quality is considerably worse than the Steelcase. I don't think this chair would support your weight. Haworth Soji XL is rated for 600lbs but it's

Fern negative points: Arm rests moved too easily The seat somehow feels on the smaller side. The rear end of the seat feels uncomfortable because it has this sharp edge, so your butt will feel like it's sitting on something hard.

Gesture is fine and to me - quite forgiving. Fern is an underwhelming chair as all Haworth products have been to me so far. Not worth the money.

Same here, although I have never tried the embody. The Leap v2 just doesn't work for my spine. The Zody is the only chair I've used that takes a bunch of hours before I feel it in my back and butt. Even compared to the Haworth Fern.

I'm still on the hunt, sadly. At work they use the Haworth Very mesh chair and I've been thinking about just ordering one of those for myself. I went to a showroom that had most varieties of Haworth chairs but I didn't like the Fern or Zody as much as the Very. The Fern made me feel like it was push

Hmm—I’d actually say the opposite. I have a Herman Miller Mirra that was provided by my employer, and it’s been the only chair that truly hasn’t given me back pain. I can sit in it for hours without any issues. After using it for about five years, I tried replacing it with the Haworth Fern and the S

This. It resonates with my chair-searching experience around 2019-2023. I had used a Zody for 4y before that in a company office. I tried the Steelcase Please v2, Leap v2, used Zodies, Haworth Fern, Very, Sidiz T50, and even sat briefly on an Aeron. While I did keep the Steelcase Please v2 (a great
