Amia

The unfortunate reality is that you really are better off buying second-hand/used compared to the offerings under a few hundred dollars. These brands are great, and objectively so. Does this mean you’ll like their chairs? No (but likely yes!). Nobody is asking you to spend thousands. The used market

If you can, I’d HIGHLY recommend checking out a Herman Miller, Steelcase, or Haworth dealer near you before pulling the trigger. Also would be good to know about your general seating habits (how long you’re sitting, how often you get out of your chair, preference for mesh or fabric, etc.). Would als

My family uses pre-owned Steelcase Leap & Amia chairs bought off Facebook Marketplace or put out to trash by local businesses (businesses throw out so much stuff for shinier new things).

Steelcase Amia grab it

I am 5'0 as well and use a Steelcase Amia. I bought it specifically because it lets me sit cross-legged on it. (As an aside, I found out that I sit cross legged because I have never had a desk that sat low enough for me to put my chair close enough to the ground that I can have my feet flat on the f

I'm 5' 0” and am also a criss cross sitter. I have a SteelCase Amia and it's the best thing I've ever owned. The arms articulate enough that I can sit normally just as comfortably as I can shrimp in it. Super flexible and the seat cushion being nearly flat means no pinch points on my legs when sitti
