What is a 'buy it for life' item that is offensively expensive, but the moment you use it, you realize your entire life before that point was a lie?

For like 10ish years of my life, I was doing janitorial work in hospitals. I finished waxing a floor and took a seat on one of the chairs in the doctors' space I was working in. It was a Herman Miller Embody. That chair was on my mind for close to another 10 years and a career transition into engine

What's something expensive you bought that actually worth the money?

Herman Miller Embody office chair, the gaming version cause it had a thicker cushion. 12 year warranty and comfortable as an office chair can get. I shouldn't need to buy another office chair for the rest of my life, or at least for a very long time.

CEO's Assistant said it wasn't right I had a nicer chair than he did

I bought a Herman Miller Embody like 10 years ago and have spent at least 35 hours a week in it since. I got a ridiculously good deal on it but even if I paid full retail it would still have been worth it. My wife finally got sick of her shitty Staples chair during COVID and we ended up getting an A

Where to try office chairs?

100% this! They also have a good return policy if a chair ends up not being for you. Keep in mind their stock changes often and the quality of the chairs vary greatly since they're used. I HIGHLY suggest Herman Miller Embody or Steelcase Leap V2. I've had an Embody for 5 years now. I WFH so it's use

Why is Herman Miller so hyped?

No chair is going to be perfect for everyone. People in general like Herman Miller for the name, reliability, and build quality. One of the issues with the Embody that you probably ran into is that it isn't cushion-heavy, but a lot firmer. This helps distribute the weight better, and also allows for

What’s the best office chair for tall people that actually feels comfortable?

If you want a seriously good chair, you need to spend closer to $1500. And it's worth it. I got a Herman Miller Embody for about $1500 5 or 6 years ago, and it's been fantastic and still as good as the day I bought it. IME, you can either spend $300-600 every couple of years as the chair breaks down

Herman miller vs Steelcase?

The only reliable option is to try them, but if you can't try to look for details that fit your situation. For instance, the Embody uses a pixelated design, meaning that it's firmer, but distributes weight better, and is wide, allowing for more movement in the seat. This makes it good for long perio

Secretlabs chair is ok for the price. Reminds me of when i bought my LaZBoy chair thinking it would be the best chair ever.. it was absolute garbage and was peeling and falling apart within 1 month. Later on i found out that it is just LaZBoy that sells them, they just get some other weird third par
