So my Beautyrest Duo-Ex back mesh decided to come off from the back frame of the chair. Only lasted a year, getting my warranty used on it for a full refund from Staples. What chairs are y'all using at work and remote? Any decent recommendations? And does Black Friday have any sales on particular good brands, Herman Miller. Steelcase, Mavix etc. I've been looking at the Vantum, M9, I was interested in the Vertagear Triigger but there's only the insane special edition available. There aren't many used furniture stores in my area. Jiro fucked around with this message at 19:24 on Oct 23, 2023 |

Did that during my lunch tried a few out, guy guffawed when I asked if he had any Hermans, or Steelcases, "Son I don't think I'd have my store in this warehouse if I could get those in here." One I sat in was a similar design to the Mavix M9 in the separate pad for lower back support so that was a nice little frame of reference. Edit: has anyone dealt with Officelogixshop? Refurbed Embodys and they machined a headrest for the Embody that almost perfectly blends in with it?? Jiro fucked around with this message at 22:05 on Oct 23, 2023 |

If I'm usually sitting up straight with no tilt I really don't need that neck support, it's when I recline back that I start to miss it. But I appreciate being more specific on why it's not necessarily a decent deal. How often does their website do a sale or promotion?

Closest dealer is apparently like five hours away, but I also think they're some kind of corporate design firm thing, not some office furniture store.

Anyone here had any experiences with the Mavix M9 or the Hinomi H1 Pro Ergonomic?

Nostalgamus posted:I'm a few days into owning an Embody. I was under the impression that you're supposed to have the back in an upright position and all the knobs be set on their default setting and you sit, from there adjust the back and the other knob to what feels most comfortable to you.

Has anyone had any experience with the Haworth Fern? Build quality, with and or without the lumbar add-on etc etc...

Nice! I never really cared for seats tipping forward so that's okay. What sort of material did you use on yours? That digital knit does look comfortable.

Herman Miller went on sale as well 25% off Embodys https://store.hermanmiller.com/gaming-sale?lang=en_US I ended up pulling the trigger and buying a Fern yesterday in black with the lumbar support and digital knit. I'm very curious to see how it will feel for 8+ hours.

brand engager posted:They charge shipping too? What's the difference between the regular embody and the logitech version that makes it cheaper? https://youtu.be/lKxTZM33HXE?si=fN3viQxkCh2-O1ep That vid will explain it better than I can as far as feature differences. But I still have no idea why the regular embody is more expensive than the "gaming" one.

There are a few chairs that seem made for short people aren't there? Whenever I looked for something possibly catering to a taller than 5'10 person they always tie it into being a wider chair too.

My Fern came in today.  This thing feels solid love the maneuverability of the armrests, seat is firm but has a little give, the digital knit is cushy but not in a way that would just absorb all my body heat, the optional lumbar support feels loving amazing, back rest tilt controls and being able to adjust the seat forward as well as recline resistance are all just *chef kiss*. I kinda wish my arm rests were a little longer, my old chair's were just like elegantly elongated where my hands wouldn't hang off. Going to really enjoy plopping my rear end into this.

repiv posted:i have the version without the lumbar upgrade - the frame itself has a lumbar curve built-in, but the upgrade makes it more aggressive and adds vertical adjustment I got the one with lumbar support, and was curious as to how it felt on the lowest position vs how high it could go and just have the chairs curve do the work. The difference is notable and for me having it rest just above the lowest setting is perfect for me since I prefer a more firm push. Without it and with the digital knit it would still be pretty darn decent.

Virginia makes sense due to the massive amount of government office buildings you guys have. The closest Office Liquidator place was like four hours away from me. Everything else on CL and other poo poo was like huge wooden desks if I wanted to pretend I was an old Oil Magnate or something.

Nohearum posted:Got the gaming embody today to potentially replace my leap V2 which I've started to hate after 3 years. Seems pretty comfortable so far but we shall see how I fare during the workweek. To each their own, I'm eyeing the Atlas conversion for my Fern. During my research I came across another Embody headrest manufacturer. https://www.officelogixshop.com/collections/embody-chair-parts/products/embody-headrest They also have a youtube channel if it helps.

https://www.btod.com/blog/best-big-tall-office-chairs/ I went off their reviews in deciding to purchase my Fern. That list could probably be a decent start in your research.

Still with my Fern and still happy. The cloth knit material is fantastic and great for scratching your back in hard to reach spots when sitting. I'm getting less low back spasms and left leg pain so that's a plus.

Maudib Arakkis posted:Embody prices are a laughingstock. How about the Haworth fern Love my Fern bought it during Black Friday month, digital mesh padding breathes super well, I also got the lumbar support, back feels loving great and I can sit in it for hours. I do wish the armrests would lock into place, and a built in head rest when I've leaned back in full recline.
