Leap V2

I do think chairs are like beds and sitting in them for a few minutes really doesn't give you an accurate picture of what each one will feel like after sitting in them for hours a day. Personally the only thing that worked for me is buying a chair and returning it if it starts to hurt. I went throug

I had always heard people recommend the Steelcase Leap V2 as an alternative to the Herman Miller Aeron. My work uses Aerons and when I started working from home, the only thing I could find was a used Leap V2. It is fine, but everytime I go into the office I curse myself for buying it over the Aeron

Key rule to remember that not every chair will fit your body's ergonomics. It's possible a $400 Sihoo M57 or Steelcase series 2 will feel more comfortable than the Leap V2 or Aeron so don't just stick to the refurbished premium ones just because they are cheap. Anyhow I was able to find these a bit

You said you're coming from an executive style chair. All these chairs would be a torture device for your butt to a varying degrees. Still boggles my mind how a decently padded chair would affect you negatively. I have a Steelcase Leap V2, which is arguably more padded than the rest of the bunch, an

I own a Herman Miller Aeron at home and I hate it. There is not enough support and no padding. I was told it was the best option when I got it years ago. It was so expensive that I never bothered to replace it. Thank you for the suggestion. I will look into the Steelcase Leap V2.

Oh, this is reassuring to hear. I am 5'10 and my current chair is a cheap office/boss chair. These days, my tailbone is starting to hurt, obviously because of my fucked up posture and practically no lumbar/back support. I had narrowed down to the Steelcase Leap V2 and Gesture, but I'm heavily leavin

Personally, the Steelcase Leap v2 (which often gets recommended in these threads) was bad for me, back pain, neck pain, etc. I ended up replacing it with a no name (least to my knowledge) ergo chair. I have subsequently gotten a Titan Evo XL Nanogen chair from SecretLab. Absolutely love it. Perfect

I'm 5 ft and lightweight, and recently purchased a Lamia from Offeco (that's LeapV2 frame with Amia seat with 4D armrests). I was highly disappointed from the moment I sat on it. That said, I've only been testing it for less than a week. Here's my little review if that helps: -The chair's height ran

Omg, reading this post felt like a mirror. I have very similar body height and, in my opinion more importantly, weight as you. I tried both the Leap v2 and Gesture but suffer from the exact same problem of the lumbar feeling too pronounced and getting sciatica pain in my right leg. It feels so nice

Funny, I shopped around for months to find a "great" high end office chair. I eventually bought a Steelcase leap v2 for like $1700 CAD, and while the material quality is way better, for comfort I would way rather have my old $300 piece of shit Staples chair back. The staples chair fell apart after l
