Freedom

I know this was posted 6 months ago but I came across the post looking for discussions on this chair. I was given one by my employer during lockdown when they decided to do away with the office lease when everyone started WFH. They had a stash of chairs in storage which they then had to either dump

Recently bought a humanscale freedom chair with headrest and it's saving my back/shoulders/neck. I scored a great deal on a used one on FB marketplace for $300 when the chair retails for 1.7k. I found a used office chair warehouse and they carried Herman Miller & steel case chairs mostly because the

I work in the office furniture industry, so we basically get our pick of ex sample or second hand chairs for working. Everyone in my office sit on Herman Miller chairs except me. I used to have a Humanscale freedom chair, but now I'm in a Diffrient World. I much prefer it for lumbar support and I li

i've been using Neutral Posture 8000 for a couple of yrs. Have gone thru aeron size c, gesture, nightingale cxo, btod akir, and have tried leap, fern, and embody.

I bought the fern recently. It arrived damaged. They deliver the chairs from Germany to the UK. I bought it with lumbar and I've found it comfortable. My previous chair was a humanscale freedom with headrest. I prefer the fern and will be keeping the replacement chair when it's delivered. I will eve

Well...I "work" in the industry and actually know exactly how many chairs Steelcase sells...by model... ;). (as well as all Miller & Knoll chairs...Haworth, not so much...Humanscale, not so much but their percent market share is WAY up in seating compared to the major OEMs) You would be QUITE surpri

In your position it’s more about finding the right chair for your body. You’re mostly going to be getting a “good” chair in this price range but some will fit you better than others. For reference I have a humanscale freedom at my office and I despise it. It just does not fit my back. I have the emb
