Yes! It's so smooth! Best chair video I've seen KZread, and by now, I've seen over a 100!
Glad you guys also loved the Embody -- I went through trying 10 different office chairs, a lot of them expensive, until also making the same conclusion that the Embody is the most comfortable chair for office or gaming use. Since switching to one right at the start of COVID, I no longer get any back pain. It's the only chair I've ever used that you can sit in for 12+ hours and feel completely fine the next day with no soreness or stiffness. S-Tier all the way.
My advice for anyone trying to get a desktop chair is go to an actual store. I was about to buy online based on reviews but something told me to just go to the store instead. I found the experience much like going to get a mattress. It’s best to try for yourself before buying as every body has different needs. What’s comfy for others might be torture for you. I went to the store thinking I would get one chair and walked out with something completely different. You can always check online for the same chair you liked in person to see if you find a better deal. So glad i went.

Yup, agreed. I went to a Herman Miller seller and ended up really disliking the Embody, it was uncomfortable for me right from the spot. On the other hand, I thought the Mirra would be uncomfortable because of the more rigid back rest but I loved it, it was the best IMO, even better than the Aeron. I only wish I it was possible to test the chair for a full work hour day lol, but the limited test at a store is still better than buying solely based on internet reviews. This video is truly helpful though, I probably wouldn't even test the Mirra if they didn't rank it higher as they did, so I'm glad this video exists

Just upgraded to an Embody from an Ikea Markus, and WOW, what a major improvement. Your reviews are straight to the point and well made, thank you!
I’m so glad you guys shared your heights! As a 5’4 man it makes it easier for me to decided which one to get. Thank you for the review. I really need a chair cuz gaming lately has been hurting my back.
Been enjoying all of the great vids that you all put out. I recently purchased the Embody and love it!
I watched a lot of these videos and ended up going with the Embody last year. Finding the perfect chair for me was a difficult task! I'm 6'3, 215lbs and pretty wide lower body. Tried multiple chairs, and the Embody is hands down the best chair I've owned or sat in. It's the only seat wide enough, has decent seat depth (would like 1 more inch) and comfort is just off the charts. When I get up from this chair, it doesn't even feel like I've been sitting, whether it's been 1 hour or 8. The price is completely bonkers and cost more than my computer, but at the end of the day, invest in your health!
Just bought my Leap V2 because of you guys. Thank you again, can't wait to get it! I work from home and spend 12-18 hours a day in my chair. I NEED THIS!

had herman miller aeron chair with headrest for 7 years and counting. great comfort for small built like me. lockable recline. mesh seats, for ventilation unlike foams seats/cushions that absorbs sweat for long periods of seating. so, comfort and hygiene is definitely an edge.

I’ve sat in foam chairs regularly for well over 10 years and have never had a problem with sweating. I definitely have not experienced so much sweat that it goes all the way through my clothes and into my chairs seat. If that’s happening to you, then I think there are different problems that need to be addressed than simply moving to a mesh seat. -Ryan
The HAG Sofi is chair I sit in. The arm adjustments are quite innovative. I also unlock the seat for active movement. Keep up the good work guys.
I got a new Zody with lumbar support (seems like its the original version though) for less than $500 on a sale after trying it out. My country doesn’t have a lot of seat options (we don’t have steelcase dealers sadly and the herman miller is just way out of my budget. no 2nd hand market of these chairs either) but I’m hoping it will give me lots of years of comfort!
Wow This must be a lot of preference. 15:41 Staples Hyken is my chair and has been for 7 years now, I absolutely love this chair specifically the way the mesh sits I find so comfortable.

Thank you for this awesome list. I'm leaning on the Haworth Fern. Is there a noticeable difference in comfort between the digital knit and the mesh? Is there enough breathability with the digital mesh? Does the mesh version provide high quality mesh or cheap quality?

As someone who is currently suffering through the post purchase of a Secret Labs Titan, I appreciate this list of straightforward reviews of office chairs. I agree with everything you listed about the Titan; hard as a rock, stiff, mediocre recline and adjustability. I have never had a chair cause me so much pain. I literally have 3 support cushions and it barely makes the chair useable.

I found the opposite to be true about my XL. I can adjust it to the exact ergonomic state I wish to stay in for long typing sessions, and the head rest really helps when I lean back to read something while not typing. Maybe the non-XL are just not as good? I have heard others complain about non-XL but haven't seen any complaints about the XL. Maybe they fixed the issues you are having with it?

I have maxed out Aeron remastered (silver legs, leather armrests, headrest from Atlas etc) and I love everything about this chair except the fact I cannot sit in "weird" positions because of the rigid frame. But is it really something to dislike? I'm going to buy super comfy living room armchair and use it everytime I want to lift my legs and work on stuff being half asleep.
Oddly enough, the Hyken is great for me. I work from home and I'm also a PC gamer, so I spend a LOT of time in the one I have. Mine is about 3 years old and I sit in it every day. I'm a bigger guy, at 5'10" and 240lbs and I don't contact the frame at all. The mesh is compliant but still supportive. What I ended up changing about it was actually the casters and adding armrest pads. Still, for the money, even with the changes, I'm perfectly happy with it.

Just recently got one myself; I'm 6'0" and around 180 lbs and I have to say for the pricepoint this seat is pretty great. Very supportive, yet also plenty of comfort for a full day of work or watching movies when tilted back. Was pretty surprised they rated it so low though... It is easily one of the highest value chairs for the money by comparison.
Great work, thank you
Very Solid tier list !! Just ironic I took the Herman Miller Embody after friends recommended and took the SecretLab Titan. Def not the same price range but I was ready to spend either on the Embody or the Leap. Just concern about the price and feature diff between the Embody vs Embody Logitech Gaming but it will be diffenitely a change from my old DXRacer...
I love the rapid-fire, to frills style of this
I sit in the Aeron Remastered probably 16 hours a day for most of the week. I can tell you the main issue with it is probably the seat curvature and that you can't slide it forward or back. Thankfully this chair has corrected my neck pain, so I can say I love this chair a lot :3 ( S tier headrest add on also purchased separately for this chair, I forgot who made it though... )

Which size of Herman Miller Aeron did you use for this tierlist? It looked like your shoulderblades connected with the hard frame, maybe the larger size would be more comfortable?

I've been using the Herman Miller x Logitech Embody for 2 years and I'm never going back to any other chair. I had lower back issues for over 7 years now due to my dad gave me an old office chair from his job that they were giving away and it was the cause of my lower back pain since the chair had no longer had any lumbar support and since I was a college student at that time I had to sit for long hours for some online classes and assignments which cause discomfort and eventually I needed physical therapy because I had trouble sitting on any seat due to the pain. I tried the Herman Miller chairs at my previous job since all their departments had them and had to get one for myself before I left the job for different employment. I love how you can adjust the lumbar and the upper back to your liking unlike other chairs I tried and gotten after my dad's chair
How about music studio chairs, You lean forward while editing tracks and often when using a keyboard, I don't spend a lot of time leaning back while working on music. It would need the arms adjustable to move out of the way when playing guitar. What chair would you advise under 350.00 for music studio?

I am a pretty skinny dude and don't have a lot of meat on the backside. I usually sink right through thinner seats and get pressure points. Would the OM Yes work better for me due to the thicker seat since I have tried a V2 Leap and would get tailbone issues after a while with it?
So, I am looking for a good chair that I can use for many hours a day (5+) I need good back support and my budget is around $500 - 600, the problem is I live in Sweden and need a chair that can be shipped here. Any recomendations?
So I just bought a Herman miller Aeron remastered with all the features. The back is comfortable and I like how it opens my shoulders, but the seat is killing me. It is to stiff and just makes my butt and sit bones sore. I want something that will be comfortable to sit on, but give me the back and lumbar support feeling of the Aeron remastered. Any chair you recommend? FYI. I tried the embody but it caused my shoulders to roll forward and wasn’t a fan of that. Thank you 🙂

Hi, im in the uk so I don't think I will have the same choice, but I am desperate to get a new office chair, i was hoping you could tell me which one is the softest seating you have tried? have one that was custom made with tailbone cut out as ive had it removed but the extra foam is still too hard and I get numb legs and feet and sitting pain at the back of my thighs and butt. I need some sort of seating that is pressure relief and takes away my body movement and I really loved the humanscale diffrient world chair when I tried it as it did everything i wanted, but for sitting all day its not good because you can't really adjust it, there's no headrest and you start to touch the frame. Unfortunately all these companies i have contacted don't have any demo chairs to try even without any custom modifications and therefore despite having over a 2k budget for a chair, I am too scared to buy anything incase it comes its exactly like the one I have now which is an adapt that I can't actually sit on still. You wouldn't buy a sofa without sitting on it so why should I be expected to spend thousands on a chair but not know if its right for me because they don't have any for me to try first? Seems crazy to me!

Aeron remastered with the PostureFit SL, with the aftermarket Atlas headrest sounds like a great option. If you don't like mesh, your best choice would be the Haworth Fern with the Digital Knit configuration and built-in lumbar support; you could then get an Atlas headrest with an adapter to attach it to the Fern. The Leap v2 with built-in lumbar support is also a decent choice, but the headrest is pretty terrible. None of the aforementioned options have collapsible armrests, as that's not something that's commonly found on high-end office chairs.
Where can i get a final image of this tier list if posible with prices included
I've been sitting on the Steelcase Gesture for a few months now and totally agree with you guys about the seat being a bit too stiff, especially under the tailbone. Will be looking into switching to one of the chairs you guys rated A or S.

@@StardustLegacyFighter i just hate b tier because a lot of people will see this video and not even bother trying it just because it’s b tier. i do agree it’s polarizing and not for everyone but it’s a top quality chair *if* it fits you. worth trying at least imo.

@@frogturtle Yeah, that's literally why ppl need to try these chairs out for themselves first (if possible), as chair fit and comfort is way too subjective. I'm not sure about other ppl, but whenever I see any tier list video, I always check out whatever is in C-S tier.

@@frogturtle problem with aeron is the biggest feature being all mesh so you dont sweat should make it appeal to heavier people but the mesh doesnt keep up with heavier people.
I really would like to buy the Haworth Fern, but ridicilously they don't offer the digital knit version in europe... so frustrating...
Awesome deserves an A+ category IMO. Chair is nearly perfect but the new models could do with a more custom adjustable lumbar support.
Do a test where you guys have to sleep in the office chair. Sometimes I recline back, put my feet up on something and watch videos or movies on my computer. Which are the best chairs for that?
In 2016 I got a Serta chair. It was great for the first few years, but then the upholstery started falling apart and my back started bothering me constantly. So the Serta isn't so bad if you use it sparingly or plan to replace it frequently, otherwise, yeah, no thanks.
Im a big guy with some weight (155kg) I have to buy every year a new chair because it breaks even so the chairs are sold as 200kg supported. Which chair would you recommend to me? So far i hat a HJ office instructor, Diablo Chair X-Player XL and a Killerbee XL just since 2019. I really dont know if its worth it to buy a expensive chair because the HJ Office was 450€ and break the fastes. Feels so frustating because if i look for chairs up to 200kg i only get reviews who copy paste the marketing blabla but they all seem to lie when it comes to max supported weight.
Enjoying my Gaming Embody. I find myself changing my posture often and the adjustabilitly allows the chair to adapt with me, but I do feel like it can be enhanced with a headrest. Hoping my Atlas one arrives within the next few months!

That means it’s uncomfortable and you have to get rid of it. Your spine is way more valuable than 1500 dollars.

Gaming Embody removed my back pain. I couldn’t imagine a headrest coming into play unless the display was hanging from the ceiling or I was using the chair to take a nap.

@@MD-01 Possibly, but right now I'm thinking the reason I change my posture so much is because I don't have a monitor yet. I have a VESA mount coming and when it gets dispatched I'll order my Apple Studio Display. I'm hoping a monitor on my sit/stand deck will stop me from changing posture so often. But posture changing is also good for when I swivel my chair to watch tv/play PS5 which is set up behind me.
Please review the Anthros chair, cloth and leather version 👍🏻
between the vera and om yes, which would you take? Price wise theyre nearly identical and is in the same tier.

Gaming hands down, a bit softer on the butt and back due to the added foam. I’m not a huge fan of the original but love the gaming
I can't take advice from someone unless I see their car seat settings. I have a sports car and a station wagon. I'm almost laying all the way down in both of them. I want to feel cupped in, my biggest gripe is the harsh seat. I don't have a big butt and I need the padding for my bony as*. Any advice?
My bottom hurts with the embody. Its disconcerting to see it so highly rated and then it be terribly uncomfortable. I've made several adjustments, watched customization videos. I'm not sure where to go next when the best doesn't work for me. Thanks for any help.

Is it a really big difference between Logitech embody and regular ? I had a regular for few weeks but didn’t liked it at all … mostly because seat seems to not be filled out fully when it connects with back, and I had a tailbone pain a fell a gap … I really liked the back tho, so thinking about Logitech, but i would have to import that one as it’s not sold in my country.

I'm 5'9, 26yo 160lbs and my back is destroyed. The past month I've been unable to stand up straight, can barely move my body, and getting up off the chair is so painful. I'm pretty sure I have undiagnosed fibromyalgia (extremely fragile, stiff, sensitive and sore body) For the past year I've been using a $100 "ergo" chair but the foam was flattened after a week, and now it's like sitting on a plastic board. I'm fed up of this chair, want to stop being in pain, but don't know what to get. I "could" afford an Embody, etc, but that price is just crazy and hard to justify. I was about to order the Steelcase series one at $400 but you guys put it in D tier. Most chairs here do not ship to UK so my options are limited. I definitely need a strong cushion as I sit for 12+ hours a day and my tailbone hurts like mad. Both Herman Miller and Steelcase' chairs are on sale here so probably a good time to buy. But still crazy expensive even on sale. Hope someone has some suggestions
Is Embody Gaming better than the regular one?
I never sat in a secret lab chair until my friend bought one recently and wanted me to try it because he loved hit. Worst chair I've sat on. Super hard, stiff and overall not comfortable. Looks great, but that's not what it's about. Saving up to get an HM embody. Untill then, I'm sticking to my trusty IKEA Markus😂

Hi guys! Could You give me Your opinions which one is the best for like ~$500-600? Long working and gaming hours daily 10-14 hours / day. I am 188cm tall and my weight is 100kg. Comfort and back/lumbar support is important. I dont care how ugly is the chair. :D
nice vid but simply can’t agree with aeron in b tier. I’ve sat in embody, leap V2 and gesture and prefer the aeron hands down largely due to the breathability of mesh and the 10/10 rocking mechanism. frame problems depend on your body type plus how you adjust the chair. it’s not for everyone. for me it’s the easiest s tier pick of my life. to each their own.
Ive been mad over the lamia but if your offering it...
