    I have some pretty bad lower back and hip issues and have been looking at new chairs as my PT said it would hep out a lot. Currently using a costco chair with lumbar and tailbone pillows that are exacerbating the problem.
    I tried out the leap v2 and gesture and the leap was a bit more comfortable to me than the gesture. The leap contours around my body and is incredibly comfortable. My body just felt right again after sitting in the leap. I hope to order one soon. Im getting a quote on a new one, but will also look at crandall as well.

    I was looking at a Crandall purchase before this video certainly helped fully solidify that this is the route I was going to go. I purchased a Steelcase Amia with the 3D fabric and I honestly couldn't be happier. The chair only had some minor cosmetic damage on the base but otherwise it looked and felt brand new. I have only had the chair for a few days but I have already been seeing the difference my my posture, and lack of aches and pains after a long day of working. Crandall is the real deal and their support was amazing at answering all of my questions.

      I see a lot of these online, and wonder if they are refurbished. You can tell immediately by removing the back report and referencing it with online picture. Curious. I bought one from 2007, and it was definitely used. LOL. but surprisingly it works great once I did a little maintenance.

    • @ex8280
      @ex8280 7 місяців тому

      ​@@Ahnestly I don't believe it, it's just an insane thing to do, to toss out 1K chair because it's old instead of just wiping it down with some fabric cleaner. LOL. But I am curious, maybe if you have time do a video of it. I think BTOD did one, but that was of a specific Ebayer, but not of the one from these warehouses. I think they all do the same, send it to China, get it refurbish and sale them here. But it's not to say, the quality of these chairs are bad, as the engineering on these chairs are so good it's impossible to make them bad. This is why Crandall, and BTOD's only selling point is thicker paddings. Thin, Thick, Cardboard, it probably just as comfortable. LOL.

    Hey Dan!
    I’ve basically narrowed down my office chair hunt down to this refurbished Leap V2 (for the extra padding), and the HM Embody thanks in part to your reviews. I’d love to hear which of these you think is a better Jack of all trades chair for both work and gaming as I will be using it for both. The biggest factor for me is the ability to sit in the chair for extended periods of time!
    I will be using your affiliate links either way for your help in my office chair journey! 😂

    • @Ahnestly

      Hey Jason! I would say buy both and return the one you don’t like. They’re pretty different chairs and I could see these polarizing folks! I think it would be really good to try them next to each other! I am still an embody fan, so that’s my ultimate rec though! I appreciate you using my links!!! Let me know what you decide on

      I think you might be confused here. If you go buy it on the used marketplace (Facebook, Craigslist, etc), it’ll cost around 300. If you want to make sure you get one that’s been cleaned, sanitized, all parts are in tip top working order, and has 12 yr warranty, then you can get one from Crandall office, but it’ll be more expensive (as you said, double the price).
