      I’m in the same boat. 6’3” 180lbs and I can’t find a good fit. Today I tried a gesture, leap v2, embody, aeron, amia, fern, and zody and none of them felt like a great fit and I had to compromise on something with every single one. Funny enough I went to an Office Depot and the best chair I sat in today was some high back gaming chair simply because it actually fits a tall persons frame. Therefore I ended up ordering the Andaseat Kaiser 3 XL today as it sounds to solve most the problems with the Titan. Sure hope so. The Vertagear PL6800 looks very good too, but you cant adjust the height of the lumbar and most lumbar support hits me too low as is. Guess people over 6’2 will never know the comfort of a high end ergonomic chair lol

    Great to see you making tierlists about this! There isn't much info available, so I appreciate your effort a lot.
    A small suggestion if I may: if you're going to test chairs, you may want to find some guests with a background in gaming to try them out as well and/or give you their side of the story, and hopefully some people that do >12 hours/day like many of us do, bonus points if they are slim build because you guys are all tall and strong, and I know for a fact these racing bucket chairs will be painful if you're too big for them (as you noted when you said your shoulders were pushed forward by the embody) but it will be a completely different story if you are shorter and slimmer, i.e. you are a good fit for the chair. It probably also affects other chairs for the same purpose, but I only have Aeron, Let's B, and a cheap DXRacer from 2013, and I can tell you all 3 of them have similar issues.
    I have a few discrepancies here, like putting a chair without a headrest on S tier, when the lack of it automatically puts the chair at B tier or lower for me. It is extremely valuable in many situations, when you can lay back and rest your neck mostly, such as watching a movie/show, attending a 2-hour-long meeting, lectures, or even when you want to relax between matches if you're playing games... it really helps extend your endurance during long sessions, I swear. Also S tier should be flawless so it shouldn't be missing any features.
    Anyway, thank you very much for all the reviews, it is really helpful.

    • @ToniDerAlbaner
      @ToniDerAlbaner Рік тому +1

      The embody gaming is designed to support your neck without needing it to have a headrest at all. Also, atlas headrest has build a headrest (who would have guessed) that is officially authorized by HM which is considered to be the best headrest out there. They start shipping in a few months so it's a brand new thing.

    SecretLabs Titan is so close to being an insane value, but the seat itself is way too hard for sure. If you have like a purple seat-cushion or something akin to that for 40 bucks or so you get a massively improved experience. But there is still so much competition in that bracket against regular office chairs that it sort of remains within that C+ tier.

Not the leap plus but I just didn't find it very comfortable. I loved the fern, the digital knit backrest was fantastic but the swat was just a little too small for me. Wish they'd make an xl version. The unfortunate thing is the gaming chairs have xl versions that do fit me well. I got the titan xl and had to return it, it was too firm. I have the kaiser 3 on order as I've heard they're a bit softer but I just would like to get away from the gaming style. Hope this one works out though.

      @@adensmith6440 Sure, they might cater to unnatural sitting positions to attract more customers, but at a fundamental level, sitting cross-legged is harmful. According to Autonomous AI, “In general, we can give a simple answer to the question. Is sitting cross-legged bad? Over time, unfortunately, sitting cross-legged isn't good for you. When you sit with your legs crossed, it throws a lot of other elements of your sitting posture out of balance. Your legs can press against one another, cutting off circulation to your lower legs and feet. This allows blood to pool, can cut off nerves, and make your feet fall asleep. You might also be sitting in a way that puts pressure on your ankles at odd angles, leading to ankle pain and overextension. Not only can this hurt in the immediate sense, but it can also lead to a higher risk of twisting or spraining your ankle down the road. Poor posture with your legs also pushes your hips out of alignment. When your hips are tilted, it puts torsion on your spine and twists it from side to side. That has a cascading effect through your back and neck and can lead to a variety of aches and pains, as well as increasing the risk of slipped discs, hernias, and other spinal problems.”

    Hey guys I'm looking into the Embody vs Logitech Embody atm, and I was curious how much you think that back padding comes into play on the chair not pushing your shoulders forward. The new regular Embody has the SEAT padding now too so fortunately that's not an issue.
    I know Robert said it helps for the shoulders, but didn't get that feedback from Greg.

    • @btodtv
      @btodtv  Рік тому +1

      It definitely didn’t help my shoulders. The only way to eliminate the Shoulder issue for me personally is to tilt the backrest backwards away from me. But that is optimal since you lose the upper back support. Awesome chair otherwise-GK

      @bobbymeadors3567 Рік тому

      The only way i'm able to reduce the pushing back issue is to lessen the tilt tension so much that recline is basically unusable, though once i do that the top backrest becomes loose enough that your upper back kind of floats with it. it's nice but sucks that you have to readjust the knob every time you want to recline.

      Thanks for the feedback guys. I think I'm leaning toward the regular version, but I also fully intend to get the headrest from Atlas. That may or may not alleviate some of the shoulder issues depending on how I set it up to support me.

    Hey @BTODtv, I'm thinking to buy a chair from you guys. I spend most of time on the chair every day for both working and gaming. I don't really care about arm rest. I just need a chair that can ease my back and neck because I recline all the time when I'm gaming, and working too sometimes. So can you guys recommend me a chair with good back support and headrest. It would be nice to have decent seat comfort as well. I'm 6 feet tall btw. I'd much appreciate your response!

      Do you like to rock back and forth, or just stay in the reclined position? If you stay upright or reclined, the Neutral Posture 8000 with the headrest is a really solid option. Excellent support when reclined, the headrest is super comfortable in a ton of different positions -GK

    Problem for me was I LOVED the Herman Miller embody, then I see the price of 1800 dollars and realize my shitty office chair hand-me-down is just fine 😂
    Have to say though, it almost seems a bit biased in some of these videos when I hear a certain chair is literally as bad as the wooden kitchen chair (different video reference). I mean… really? Really?? No way lol
    But I appreciate the reviews of all these. But there are definitely elements to these videos that make me a little uncomfortable trusting your opinions. Namely that you get money based on *some* of these chairs and not all.. so the ones that are reviewed, do they have a bias if they are pens you’ll make money from?
