The all mesh is so good. You can sit on it all day in bliss.

I know comfort is king when it comes to office chairs, but the shiny aesthetics of this one has got me drooling.

You need to include the adjustment range for the arm rests more in depth imo. The single biggest problem with these chairs is that the damn arm rests often will not go low enough to clear the desk, so you can actually get a decent gaming position. Things like Noble and Secret Lab Titan is therefore completely unusable without modifications in my opinion, and I wonder how they could make such huge oversights. Would be great to know if something like this is better.

Since I'm also 5'6" and on the somewhat smaller side (currently 152lbs but wider shoulders), I was almost sold on this, then I saw the return policy... Oof, 20% fee on top of paying return shipping. That makes just trying the Neue a much more difficult proposition... Guess I'll need to find an office furniture shop near me and try something there, really too bad since I wanted to try either this or the Titan Evo 2022, but it seems like they're just too risky for me. This one with the fee and the small Titan probably having too much seat depth (and possibly constricting shoulder area?). Thanks for all the info!

I still wouldn't mind if its backrest didn't go so sharply backwards at the top, but meh it seems I just don't need as much upper back support. So I just sit on the chair with my lower back getting good support and maybe a little bit on my mid back, but my upper back is typically a couple inches forward from the top of the backrest... Which is actually fine. I bought a Steelcase Amia from a local place as it felt great in the showroom, but after a few days in it at home, I returned it. Later, I ordered the Sayl and Embody direct from HM, and I took a while deciding. Ultimately, the Embody, while neat, pushed with hard plastic into my low-mid back and so just didn't feel good. So I returned that (got my full refund) and kept the Sayl. Hope this helps, good luck!

Another superb review. I like that you mention the little things that I suddenly discover are important to me too, like resting feet on the chairs legs ( I do that practically as a norm) and sitting on top with legs crossed. All important factors for me. Keep up the fantastic work.

Now I want this chair

Thanks for a through review. A key metric I always look at in other products is the warranty offered. Says a lot about what the engineers have said to the CFO about the product. Herman Miller's 12-year warranty and 30-day refund is pretty strong.

@zeta42

3 жыл бұрын

Agree. I looked into the warranty on the Neue Chair that Secret Labs uses and it reads: NEUE does cover the following under this warranty: NEUECHAIR: Skeletal Frame, Aluminium Frame, Wheelbase and Polyamide Frame - [12 years] NEUECHAIR: Lumbar Support and Central Mechanism Hub - [5 years] NEUECHAIR: Armrest Mechanism, Casters Mechanism and Gas Lift - [3 years] NEUE does NOT cover the following under this warranty: -Defects in Products purchased through unauthorized resale, remarketing or distribution. -Normal wear and tear including but not limited to the wear and tear or degradation of mesh, top portion of armrests, lumbar pillow, casters exterior, ControlShift™ paddles, variance of tightness of mechanisms. -Damage caused by a service performed by anyone who is not officially acting as an employee, representative or sub-contractor of NEUE. -Any damage to the Products or to any property or person, caused by failure to adhere to NEUE’s published instructions and guidelines, accident, abuse, misuse, water, flood, fire, or other acts of nature or external causes (including, without limitation, use of the Product in unsuitable environments or conditions). -Defects in a Product that has been modified or altered, including the substitution of any unauthorized components for use in place of the original components in the Product. -Defects in a Product caused by failure to use, apply, install, reconfigure or maintain the Product or component according to NEUE’s published instructions. -Minor aesthetic and cosmetic abnormalities or variations which do not affect the functionality of the Product. So the parts that will actually wear out are only on a 3 & 5 year warranty and they have listed enough under the NOT covered clause to reject pretty much any issue you run into. Herman Miller is a 12 year parts & labor on the whole chair, no questions asked. Something to consider for sure.

I have this chair. Bought it after seeing a KZread video raving about it. I wanted to love it, but I just can’t. Maybe for your height it’s great, idk. I am 5’10’’ @ 160lbs. The seat is too shallow even when extended forward (which creates a discomfort in the lower back). Additionally, the arm rests are at a height where they are too far forward to sit comfortably with your arms on them extending to desk and do not lower far enough to pull under the desk (to rest arms on desk). Removing them is not an option because all the functionality of the triggers are integrated into the armrests. I ended up shelling out the money for an Embody. Wish I had known how worth the money Herman Millers were prior to dropping the money on 3 dxracers and the neuechair.

FYI, anything that doesn't "click" into place and can lock at *any* angle is likely a friction based mechanism. For a number of reasons, I've found friction based systesm to be a LOT less durable. The clamping hardware in a friction mechanism can stretch or fail over many uses, resulting in a complete loss of locking. Also, if friction surfaces fail for whatever reason, that's also tough. However notch systems tend to require a LOT less maintenance and be a lot more forgiving to wear/tear and a lack of maintenance.

You're often an objective dude in your reviews and say a lot of ahnest stuff, so I'd love to see some reviews from you on some saddle chairs. Some sources claim that they're the healthiest kind of chairs because they emulate the posture of a person when horse-riding, and humans have done horse-riding for uncountable eons, and so on. Also, I would really, really love to see a video where you describe the differences between the Herman Miller Aeron Fixed PostureFit and the Aeron Adjustable PostureFit, because there's a strangely significant price gap between both chairs or options. And there's very little information on the web about the differences (I did try searching several times), so that could be a gap that you can fill when it comes to relevant search results. It would be great to know if it's possible to upgrade from the Fixed to the Adjustable, or does the Adjustable PostureFit has some knob that's built into the base of the seat or what. And thank you, Dan.

First, thank you for spelling "Ahnestly" correctly! Second, I reached out for the Capisco chair but got nothing...I personally wouldn't use a saddle chair, so not sure if I would review one...I can if someone was willing to send one to me for sure! Third - I think you're using incorrect terminology for the lumbar supports. There is the posturefit, which came on the classic aerons, and then the Posturefit SL, which come on the remastered aerons. Both posturefits are adjustable (only in/out). I prefer the classic's posturefit. The posturefit SL comes already installed on a back rest, but i can't for certainty if you can replace the back on a classic aeron.

Very late response to this comment, I know, but in my line of work employers almost always give us saddle chairs to use because they're meant to be better for your posture. From my experience they are a bit better but not by much. Now I've only used cheaper shitty ones and most haven't had backrests so I end up slouching a lot but I can say for certain that back support is a way more important aspect to chair design than the saddle. The main advantage of it is that you can go waaaay higher with it and still remain "seated" in the chair because you can just have your legs go basically straight down into a semi-standing position. I'd be intrigued to try an expensive and well made saddle chair with good back support but from my experience there is only a small benefit!

You mentioned having access to both chairs being good, but, as someone currently looking at buying two new office chairs, you suggest: A) Aeron + Embody or B) Embody + Neue EDIT: To clarify (as we just tried these today), the wife prefers the Aeron thanks to the tilt forward (she likes to lean forward) and back and I prefer the Embody letting me have more freedom in posture.

Thanks for the review. Just what I was looking for. I'm mostly surprised about the fact that Secret Lab makes this chair, yet it's their bloody gaming chairs that get so overly promoted. When are gamers gonna learn, that gaming chairs kill their backs? (As does cheap office chairs too mind you). This looks like a perfect blend between the two worlds.

Have you considered reviewing the ergo chair 2 ? I would love your input on it.

Hey man i clicked the link for the chair in the description and even went on the secretlab website manually, but they appear to have taken it off the site. Know anywhere else I can buy it?

I actually picked up a Neue without a headrest. Now I want to add one. I wish Atlas made one for the Neue. Great review on the chair! One thing I would like on the Neue is the ability to tilt the seat instead of just the back.

@@Ahnestly yeah definitely this too

Would you recommend a second hand Steelcase leap or Neue chair? I can't seem to find any second hand Neues, so they end up being roughly the same price.

So watching your videos I think I've narrowed it down between this chair (which I didn't even know about) and the Embody. I have the Aeron and don't like it. It's just not a comfortable chair. I think part of the reason is i'm only 130lbs, so it feels too firm for me. So I'm looking for something that's really comfortable and that has a great recline feature or ability to recline a good amount. Between the Embody and the Neue (if price isn't an issue), is there a clear winner? Or is there a situation where you'd prefer one over the other. For example, would one be better for reclining while using a laptop? Or better for reclining w/ some popcorn and watching a movie? Or is more more comfortable for just working at the computer for several hours a day... Your videos are SO GOOD!!! Really appreciate all the time and effort you put into these. Whichever one i get, i'll definitely use your links! :D

Thank you for the kind words!!! So I had a friend over to test some chairs for me since he's 6'1 and he, my wife, and I all agree - the embody is on the next tier up but the Neue is the next best, with its equal being the Aeron classic with posture fit. I think the embody is still a better overall buy, as the mesh worries me a bit on the Neue and I found out secretlab doesn't warranty it. The embody is my overall choice! Hope this helps!

I'd still love to hear your thoughts on the Uplift Pursuit. I've had mine for a few months now and still enjoy it. The Neue looks pretty awesome for that price range!

@@Ahnestly Dont Sweat it bro. Autonomous is a trash company. They use rebranded chairs anyway. Im pretty sure theyre run by a bunch of crooks. I gave them $650 for a desk and they didnt process my order for 6 months. Claimed to never receive payment, even though i had confirmation from my bank they got it. Had to confirm with their accounting department their information and prove they had my money before they gave it back. After 9 months I finally got my money back. No Desk. Not even an offer from the company of a discount for my trouble. Will never purchase a product from them.

J'ai acheté la chaise. Pour ceux qui passent par là, voici mon avis pour 1,71m/69kg Ce qui fait que je regrette cet achat, en plus d'avoir essayé une chaise "chaise sitek confort 7770" plus confortable chez office dépôt et qui coute 200e de moins et qui est supérieur sur tous les points. Les moins: - Surtout, le soutien lombaire trop petit qui donne une sensation de dureté dans le bas du dos...des fois. Pas agréable au final. - La hauteur max des accoudoirs n'est pas de 80cm comme annoncée mais de 77,5cm voire 76 qd je suis assis. :(( - L'assise en mesh qui n'est pas aussi confortable que de la mousse (et de la chaise que j'ai essayé qui est mousse/mesh) - Retour beaucoup trop cher (20% + le transport, cout total: 400€ via UPS !!). Ce qui m'oblige à la garder finalement. Non en fait, je l'ai revendu et acheté la sitek. - Les accoudoirs (2D only) qui ne sont pas reculables pour s'approcher d'avantage du bureau. - Les accoudoirs qui n'ont pas de verrouillage. La position max fait qu'ils redescendent tt en bas (rarement qd même) - Les roulettes moquette pas adapté à mon sol (mais je pense que c'est du 11cm standard pour pouvoir les changer facilement, j'espère, je ne suis pas sur....) - Filtre les avis negatifs sur leur site, ils n'ont pas mis le mien. Les plus: - L'appui tête quasi obligatoire si vous achetez la chaise. un régal de confort et de réglage - Les gâchettes au accoudoir, gadget mais facile d'accès pour les différents utilisateurs - Les accoudoirs très large, confortable. - Le support en alu, très quali. - Elle reste confortable (sauf l'assise au niveau des jambes au niveau du mesh et de la mousse qui le soutient). J'ai des fourmis ds les jambes avec. Un comble !

I just ordered a SL Titan - wish I had seen this first.

I really wish we’d move away from “gaming” chairs and have more of this from these companies, secret lab especially with their ability to design some models with larger people in mind. Need more best of both worlds hitting the mainstream market. I’ve got a staples dexley currently until I can find a good deal on an aeron size c, mesh seats are the way to go until someone can partner with purple or something for proper cushioning.
