Thank you for making this video! I'm actually considering the "Wavebone Voyager II Foam Chair" - do you know anything about it? Looks a bit similar to this but with a headrest. Also curious how this chair has held up for you?
Hi! Yes the chair is still holding up great, zero complaints and no issues or damage after daily use. Sorry I have no experience with the foam version but I can see it being comfortable.
What's the max height from the ground to the center of the seating part? (not the backrest). The website says 52cm, which is nearly 10 cm lower than my current chair. Might be too low for me, I'll drop the chair a bit when tracking guitars, but when back on the desk I need it back to full height.
Hi Rex I just measured at max height and 52cm seems accurate. I'm 5'7" and at max height it's a little too tall for me so I drop it down a few inches (also at max height, my legs would just barely fit under my desk anyway). Hope this helps! I've grown to really like this seat, it's pretty comfortable overall. Also (something I did not note in the video because I didn't realize at the time) is that having the arms fold back is awesome when you're working with a laptop actually on your lap. I only thought of it for guitar purposes, but even just typing with a laptop on your lap is much more comfortable when you move the arms out of the way.
I don’t have a Herman Miller to compare. However my wife has a nice chair from Knoll, which is a high end chair similar to the Herman Miller. Honestly the material on her chair is more comfortable than mine, and I assume the Aeron is the same. It feels more like a fabric whereas the Wavebone feels a little more like plastic. However that being said, I still like the Wavebone a lot and don’t regret the purchase. I love the ability to move the arms out of the way when using my laptop on my lap, or playing guitar. I use that feature literally every day. And the Wavebone material is not UNCOMFORTABLE when you’re sitting in it by any means, but if you try to directly compare side by side then you’ll notice the Herman Miller is more comfortable. But the HM also costs 3x as much and the arms don’t move. Oh I will say this…the Wavebone sells itself as a studio chair, and being quiet is one of its selling features (i.e. they say how the castors on the chair are extra quiet). I don’t find this to be true. I find the chair to make the usual creaking noises as I move around as all other chairs do. If I’m recording, I do have to pay attention to sit still. Maybe I can tighten up some bolts but not sure that’s do anything.
Estellas dad wth

Thx for this review! Ordered the Foam version cause is was complaining if the mesh will stand the time...
Thanks for making a review on this! This helped convince me to get a Voyager II Foam myself, and I'm glad I did!

@@TomerBusidan Okay, thanks for the reply! Will do some more research

How does this compare to Herman Miller aeron?
