Herman Miller Embody chair: negative Experience after 6 weeks of daily use (8-10h/day)
Unfortunately thats just how it goes for chairs.... everyone's body is different and its simply not possible to make an ergonomic chair that works for everyone. I have an Embody after trying the Steelcase Gesture and Haworth Fern, and I hated those other chairs. The Embody is the only chair thats ev

Got this for $100 from market place but did not work for me.
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

6’4” and struggling to find a comfortable office chair - tried Anthros, Embody, Aeron, and Leap
The seat on the Fern might be too small for you. The Dual Posture Haworth Zody is a better fit, bigger seat and bigger backrest https://store.haworth.com/products/zody-office-chair

Finally!
I hope it works for you, or they changed the padding. Shit since I got mine. But watch Tristan popes fern review on YouTube it definitely gave me an insight of what I had to look out for. He’s very honest about the fern. I didn’t believe it at first until I had tailbone issues and now Haworth want m

I don't fit well in a Crandall Steelcase Leap V2
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

All set up
I’ve had secret lab before and it had that little adjustable lumbar knob but that seat broke my tailbone. Very hard and flat and that’s what I also dealt with when I got a Haworth fern. Honestly in my opinion the fern is such a terrible chair for its price and padding material, I got myself a very w

Office chair uncertainty - Haworth Fern vs Herman Miller Aeron
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. Non-existent back support - it's just like some kind of airy pillow at

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.

Libernovo Omni and My Expirience with owerhyped and owerpriced Herman Miller
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

Office chair uncertainty - Haworth Fern vs Herman Miller Aeron
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
