EU in general seems to be completely lacking in good chair resellers/refurbishers

Thanks a lot for the video! I was looking for a proper ergonomic chair to solve my back and neck pain issues and I think this is the one. I'm 6'4 for reference

which would you choose between this one and the HM embody? I am a bit worried about the HM embody because a couple of you spoke about the shoulder part making your shoulders protract and not being suitable for 8+ hours

i got the ergohuman ioo elite 2 which the salesman told me its almost the same with this.nice chair so far.Only annoing thing is while the 5d armrest feature is good there is a hard spot where you can recline them so its not all soft like this.About the mesh seat comfort its not bad.

I don't know about US but in EU you can get Ergohuman 1/2 in full mesh, mesh back only, and full leather

Does the ErgoHuman lock in the forward tilt mode?

Had been using ergohuman v1 and the tension of mesh weaken after 1 yr and also wheels start to breaking off after 2 years. But overall still a great chair 😂

Being an Ergohuman V2 owner, I can definitely say the quality of the chair is extremely high. However, if you are transitioning from a gaming chair with a flat back or you have no experience with lumber support at all you may want to try before you buy. Even thou the strength of lumber support is adjustable... Imo, it can still be pretty aggressive.

Seems like I've finally found a chair I'm gonna go for, thanks!

So, you went for it?

Could you please consider reviewing the Knoll Generation? Every Generation review on KZread is super hokey.

Hey Greg. Thanks to your video on this chair two weeks ago, I went ahead and purchased one from your website as I was/am actively searching for a new chair. I tried an Aeron and I think I prefer the Ergohuman. It's not even a price/budget thing. Id like it more if they were both $0! Funny thing to note. The only thing I don't like about it is the one thing you seem to really love: The arm rests moving with you when you recline. It makes it so that you can't recline even a tiny bit and continue to use your mouse/keyboard. Because the arm rests angle upwards and dig into your forearms. Also, ive had it for two weeks and I still can't quite find the right settings for me. I end up trying a new seat depth, backrest height, and lumbar strength combination daily. Did it take you some time to find the right settings for you?

@btodtv

5 ай бұрын

That is awesome. Thank you for the business and feedback! Just out of curiosity, how far are you attempting to recline in the chair and continue to use your keyboard and mouse? Maybe the only downside to so many adjustments :) Trying to find that perfect fit. I sat in the all mesh and then the combination of mesh/leather Ergohuman for years. Jumping into the new one was like riding a bike. Didn't take much to get it dialed in. The only part of the chair that I'm still messing with a bit is the lumbar strength. Sometimes I like a little more tension and other days not as much. Not sure i'll have an exact setup for it I use everyday in the future. Hopefully that helps! -Greg

@@btodtv The chair has a total of 4 positions, if you include the default/upright mode. So, in position 2 of 4, the least reclined setting, the arm rests already begin to dig into my arms. Its not the most painful thing ever, but its also not a pleasant feeling. I can either take the pain, or I have to go through the process of lowering the armrests a few notches to sort of match the front of the arm rest with my desk. Which, as much as I do love these arm rests (very plush!), it is a pain in the butt to adjust the height. Or, should I say, to at least match each side to ensure they are at the same height. Though I know the Aeron has the same issues, as the arm rests follow your arms in a similar fashion. Also, I can never tell if my bottom is sitting on the seat correctly. I do try to ensure my legs are the proper distance from the front of the seat. But Im not sure how far the rear side of my bottom, towards the tail bone area, should be hanging off the edge? I had a similar issue when I tried a Steelcase Leap V2 (points to the Leap V2 for its arm rests not following the recline, so they don't hit me strangely like the Ergohuman does). I couldn't tell at what point "too much was too much" in terms of your bottom hanging off the rear end of the seat. Its a rather strange feeling, as most chairs don't have a gaping hole in that area (such as an Aeron). Perhaps I am overthinking all of this haha.

The point is that the chair is adjustable and believe it or not the way our body feels changes every day. It takes seconds to adjust and should be a matter of daily routine. if the settings are not right as you work adjust them. I am by the way the Sales Director of Comfort UK

Will the high adjustment for the back rest stay in place and not slide down on its own?

I like the Karman, but it has some issues. The seat is probably my second favorite mesh seat. The padding underneath cheats the mesh concept a bit. I wish the arms weren't so cheap feeling, such a disappointment compared to the Amia and Leap 4 way arms. The lumbar is also lacking. I like an aggressive lumbar. But the flexibility in the backrest is amazing and one of the best features of the chair -Greg

As producent says Basic has plastic frame of headrest, plastic lever mechanism, lacks strength adjustments of lumbar support.
