trully marvelous youtube moment, hide whole list at the end with "watch next" segment, which in the past could have been hidden, but not anymore
Sorry! Fixed - RG
0:00 ok so what if i am sitting on a plastic chair with a blanket on it from the dumpster?
What’s the point of having a recline feature without a high back/headrest? I like to recline every so often when I’m at my desk, and doing so in a chair without a high back or headrest just doesn’t feel right. Some of these ergonomic chairs need to add this if they’re going to add a reclining feature
Im on a tight budget , I wanted something like the Tikova but i really want a footrest. Is there any chair you would advise that has it? Thank you for the video, it helps!
As a European, I find that none of your suggestions below $900 are currently available for purchase here, except for the Ticova.
I really appreciate your reviews, but I often find that Europeans need to pay much more for the same products, which sometimes makes your reviews less relevant for us.
Do you have any recommendations for chairs available to Europeans under $600?
Same
Just a followup info, just in case your not aware:
colamy atlas: is allways at a preordre state in eu, however we can only preorder sometimes, and when we can the price is above 400 Euro (same for cletina mellet is like 420 Euro)
Eurotech does not deliver to EU.
Haworth actually have a EU shop, however the Soji is not available in the EU shop.
OM dosn't deliver to EU.
Your refurbished chairs dosn't deliver to EU.
BTOD is in US, where they kind of always have net price, because you pay taxes yourself, so europe automatically have +23% in case of my country (Poland), so you always have to expect like +25% premium on top of what you can see from US
Similar in Australia. We have a downgraded Fern with a plastic base that is routinely sold with only height-adjustable arms. It’s possible to procure an upgrade but NO digital knits anywhere. And although Steelcase and Herman Miller are available, the only place to try them is a questionable Facebook Marketplace second hand seller. They just don’t have them in shops.
when will big and tall be a factor, im aware the gusture and embody are the best, I can afford them new as well. BUT the only chair that ive found that fits me is the secretlab xl... and I dont find it very comfortable. Answer that question for the dudes 6'2" plus or for those guys that are heavy set too
It's still WILD to me that a whole segment of chairs for use AT HOME is based on a seating style built for a specific type of athlete to be secure during a specific activity. In no way does this represent gaming!
I mean, that's great, but I have yet to find an ergonomic chair for the > 300 pound set. Am I missing one? Gaming Embody, for example, maxes out at 300.
Have you guys tested the COLAMY 275lbs Executive High Back Mesh Office Chair with Footrest Model.2577''? It's priced the same as the Kirin but seems to have a bit more features besides seat depth.
Been watching a lot of your videos for the past few days, but just cannot decide on what to try/get. Also as a European a lot of chairs aren't available here, and I would like to see more chairs specifically aimed at shorter people.
I have the razer iskur. The cushion on the bottom makes me feel like I'm sitting on concrete and makes my hips and tail bone hurt. It's so uncomfortable my staples gaming chair has a soft cushion on the bottom and way more comfortable. I'm looking at getting rid of the razer and want one similar to the staples one.
No Corsair? Wild.
I’m sitting on a kitchen chair that’s about 30-35 years old. While visiting a friend I tested his Aeron and it felt absolutely heavenly, like I was floating.
Good chairs are worth the price.
Can anyone explain the difference between the Rythm and the Sync fabric for the Embody?
@@fatalist6262 i’m the opposite , i sat in an arron for awhile and thought the kitchen chair was heaven LOL.
How much of a difference there is between the tivova and the colamy atlas?
A lot. Basically a big upgrade across the board for everything -Greg
@@btodtvone last question since I'm in Europe and there is no atlas available until October, is the tivova better in the lumbar support than the Sihoo m18 because that back support sucked i tried it and it was painful, is the same or better in the tivova?
I have sat in a few different racing style gaming chairs. After 5 minutes, I thought that sitting on a concrete floor would be more comfortable.
Cant find any used embodys or a company that ships to my country(Europe, Romania). I spent hours over hours for a decent price, but they are like 1600 to 1900 for used ones (1900 being a used, without warranty logitech embody)
Maybe you can order a Kinnarps chair , from Sweden. From videos I have watched about Kinnarps they look comfortable and S-Tier level.
Got my gaming embody about a week ago. Watching this video in bed, and the biggest difference since getting the embody is when I get into bed at night. Instead of my spine painfully decompressing for an hour, it feels normal.
Great advice. I went from a SecretLabs Titan to a proper ergonomic chair and now have no pain.
Just a note, you should hire someone taller and bigger. I can never know what to make of a review etc when it's a little person doing it.
Could you image hiring people because they were short skinny, medium height fat, tall at about 194 lbs, etc all to suit the needs of our audience. You guys are funny with these requests. It's hard enough finding people who are willing to go on camera, let along pick them based on their height and weight -Greg
@@btodtvya i can imagine that, many listings for those exact requirements online for modeling gigs… kinda like what this vid does… uses someone that models the chair’s features
@@xrei.I feel like 90% of btod responses to comments are dismissive and/or arrogant in regard to the question being asked.
@@bonanzabrandon6877 Agreed, vid was good but not supporting someone like this.
I have had my Secret Labs Titan for 4 years and it still looks and feels new. I also bought my Wife and Brother Secret Labs chairs because I was so impressed with their build quality and and quality of materials used. Steel construction, M5 stainless steel fine thread hardware and firm chair padding. I had owned 4 or 5 other brand chairs over the course of 10 years as a result of failure in the building materials or the gas cylinder dying. This Titan (rated for over 300lbs) hasn't failed anywhere in 4 years. 2 important things I would point out is they are firm like a Car seat. So if you are looking for a cushy padded chair this is not for you. The 2nd is they offer their chairs in a Fabric material, anyone that has owned a PU leather chair knows what a nightmare it is when it starts peeling not to mention how bad it looks. With Secret Labs chairs they offer the option to get it in Fabric which honestly was a big sales feature for me. With all of this said, they are not cheap, I paid $600 Canadian for this chair but if it is in your budget you will be getting something that will last a long time.
If you want something that is going to offer longevity, then don't get a racing chair. The Titan is the most well-built racer, but there are plenty of points of potential failure, which is probably why they only offer a 3-5-year warranty.
Same with the car seat comparison. I think you are way off base here. My car seat is very comfortable, and it is soft in the seat and back. It has an open backrest design and doesn't feel like it is restrictive. Secret Lab chairs are hard. There is no other way to describe it. And the backrest frame is very restrictive compared to my car seat. The Secret Lab chairs look like car seats but they do not feel close to any car seat I have ever used. -Ryan
If you think gaming chairs are too stiff not enough padding check out the Corsair tc500 luxe. Just kidding, I know you won't.
Hello! I can't get any of those chairs cause reasons or overpriced as hell, but I can get the Amia Air with all steelcase policies and stuff, my question is, would that chair work as a gaming chair? I was checking and is different from the Amia you show, so I am not sure if I should get it or just get an used SC Think V1 and let it go...
I wouldn't recommend a Think, not great for comfort. The Amia is legit and comfortable -Greg
Gaming chairs are made for looks, comfort is impossible when they all use metal plates you sit on through the very thin foam cushion. I notice videos like this ALWAYS look at lumbar support as the only real importance, but never take into consideration the actual seat. Mainly because the reviewers are all 150lbs and while not a comfortable truth, there are a lot of people who are more like 250lbs. Chair reviews by people who don't take into consideration all weight types are irrelevant IMO - no offense.
Please check out the new Fractal Refine. It looks amazing!
In my experience, gaming chairs are really good for reclining back and putting my feet up on my desk while watching UA-cam. As far as anything else, I'll stick to my Leap V2 from BTOD! Racer gaming chairs, just suck, the leather cracks, they are a pain to dust, and they are so rigid, it makes it pretty tough to get comfortable. Almost like the whole concept of a racing style seat is to keep you in place while cornering lol! I'm glad to see good chairs like the Fern and Embody taking on "gaming" themes. The market is heading in the right direction with that.
Great video, loads of informative content. Would love a more Europe/International focused recommendation video since a lot of the recommendations on your channel aren't available in Europe.
I did tons of research and was unable to find Steelcase, Haworth, etc that you recommend with various upgrades and such in Europe, or that shipped to my location in Europe (Ireland). Haworth for example only sold their absolute basic version of the Fern, and I've found information that indicate the service in Europe was poor. Eventually found a German website that shipped an Embody to Ireland but this was difficult to navigate to, and the Gaming variant seems impossible to get in Europe.
Keep up the informative videos.
Unfortunately I feel that the only chair I "fit in" is a SecretLab Titan Evo XL. I'm an amateur bodybuilder that is 6'6". I have sat in so many "ergo" office chairs that practically go to mid thigh and or my shoulder blades go over the back rest. You guys should make a video for chairs for taller users! @BTODtv
I know it just came out, but have you tried the Haworth Breck?
Yes! Video coming next week. -Ryan
My Ticova broke within a year - back recline no longer locks in place. Even before that I was not happy with it, it creaked terribly and I could never get the lumbar adjustment quite right. I've now gone for the opposite end of the scale in terms of cost and so far not regretting it.
I mean, a years pretty good for a 200$ chair in my opinion, especially if you used it frequently
I wish all Gamer kids would watch this video. To me, it’s been obvious since forever that when it comes to anything outside peripherals, ‚Gaming‘ has simply been a huge marketing gimmick, but if it goes so far that they can be called scams like in this case, it’s really disheartening to see
6:47 he only reason to buy a "gaming chair"
I'm enjoying the Asus Destrier more than the Haworth Fern. Been sitting on them side by side for past couple days
I just miss the recline from gaming chairs. I love my Fern and all, but I wish I could lean back more than 125 degrees. I have my bed right next to my desk and whenever I want to relax and chill I put my legs on it, but the max recline is just not enough to get comfortable + after a while my back starts to hurt. I know office chairs aren't meant for that kind of stuff, but it's at times like these that I wish I still had my old dx racer chair in which I could lean back much further and get comfy without any back pain.
Thumbs up for the Chairiffs!
edit previous video had my answer tbh
This guy clearly doesn't understand how real people use chairs. The positions shown at 2:24 are what real gamers do. The movement he uses to test every chair (shown at 2:37) is not a movement I've ever done while using a chair for any purpose.
If I need to stretch, I'll stand up for 2 seconds (gasp!) and then sit back down. Spending $1000 to avoid that, in favor of unnatural stretches while sitting down, is just dumb
I love my gaming chair.
Sorry about that ;) -Greg
@@btodtv I got no choice but to love my gaming chair. I don't have the money to buy a new one...
To bad none of these brands are in my Country. (South Africa)
I bought 2 months ago my first ergonomic chair, and its not for me. I sold it yesterday and ordered again gaming chair.
It better suits my needs.
Ergonomic chairs force you to sit in right position which i never do. I like sometimes to put my feet on the chair,cant do that on mesh chair. In 2 months mesh got litle scufed from my jeans,belt and other hard clothes. I use my pc 99% for gaming,mostly almost lying in chair with controler in hands and legs up, which i couldnt do i ergonomic chair.
Fixed hedrest was not good if i lay down.
Ergonomic office chairs are only good for people that sit in right position, doing office work or play games in front of pc with mouse and keyboard.
I agree with you but stop putting the chair in a sleeping position. Who does this in real life it's ridiculous lol
Does your chair do this?! lol -Greg
No 😂, I have a Steelcase and a Fern (that I am disappointed about) but non of them is a bed@@btodtv
@@btodtv I feel sorry for the people that won't get this. Legend
I am not paying $2000 for a chair. That's more than my rig!!! 😂😂
If you are making a career of it or spending a ton of time doing it, a good chair is probably worth it for your body
You made me waste this whole video only to put a damn graphic at the end instead of actually talking about the alteratives?
