Need urgent advice before I pull the trigger

OP, go out there and try out the chair rather than just buying it. Of course the price is very less, but sit, take a feel for 15 to 20 minutes, understand how does your back adjust to the chair. I made the mistake of buying a Steelcase Leap V2 recently because it was coming at a good price. I had te

What did you think was pretentious, until you tried it and realized it was worth it?

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.

Steelcase Gesture hurts my tailbone...do all ergonomic chairs have thin seat pads?

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

Struggling to find a chair for 6'4", 286 lbs — Any recommendations?

I’m almost exactly your size and have lower back problems. I’ve had a Leap v2 Plus for a few years now, and unfortunately it’s been terrible. Honestly, it’s too wide (even when I was 100lbs heavier) and doesn’t feel supportive. I also saw Sihoo, they have a new chair that released this week, but inf

Leap v2 warped back. Return it?

Leaps are well known for this unfortunately. They will naturally look slightly assymetrical because of the lumbar adjustment being assymetrical. Steelcase says that's normal and they tell you that once you learn into the chair you won't feel it, HOWEVER many if them do twist/warp over time and you D

Honest and comprehensive LiberNovo Omni Chair review from a tall'ish guy (in a sea of covert paid / sponsored ads)

I had an Omni and am in the process of returning it. Something about the back just wasn’t comfortable for me. The thing is, it’s not actually very adjustable, it’s a single adjustment for the back that pushes up in a weird location around the middle part of the backrest, it’s not like most other lum

Help with picking chair for petite with lower back & upper trap pain

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

Steelcase Leap v2 is not for me, what next?

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

Suggestion for short girls with back problems?

I am 5’3” with short legs and I also tend to slouch. I’ve been having pain from my neck to back, and even shoulders/arms. I went and tried all the ones people recommend like the steelcase leap v2, steelcase amia, Herman miller Sayl and HM embody. Finally the steelcase gesture was the only one that r
