I've been researching this chair like crazy and this review is the one that is pushing me over the edge to buy it. Super concise, and explaining how to correctly set up the chair was really useful.
Excellent. I'm 6'3", so you being the same size is fortunate for me. I sat in this chair yesterday and liked it better than the regular embody. I'm a writer, so I'm not going to sit in this thing for 12-hours straight, but it's going to help mitigate my lower back issue with support with it's unique support system. I noticed the seating set up doesn't rely on memory foam like Steelcase or Hawthorne. The special support disperses weight evenly across the seat, so your lower spine doesn't compress. It's also cheaper than the regular embody and it looks better. The cushioning is thicker and much more comfortable. Going back to buy one now before the sale is over. Thank you.
But how well does the cooling work? I had to switch from a decent gaming chair to a cheaper all mesh one from Office Depot, just because my back and butt were always sweaty. The mesh works great, but I’d be open to an upgrade. I live in Florida and am also 6’3”, 230 lbs.
I think it helps to dissipate some of the heat caused by the additional foam they use, but if heat is a major concern, this one still gets a little warm. I'm up in Indiana, so weather isn't as big of an issue for me, but it sounds like it'll be a bigger factor for your setup. You may want to consider one of their other options, like the Aeron chair.
I own embody and aeron. The embody cooling is mere marketing. I live in average 100 (in summer) . So I use aeron at home and embody at work . Though I liked the embody’s back support better
I am currently in the market for a good office/gaming chair that I can comfortably be in for 10+ hours a day. I heard through several youtube videos that this chair, in spite of all of its positives, is very loud; a lot of crunching type of sounds coming from the back. Can you confirm if this is the case, and if so how big of an annoyance it has been? Planning to buy one of these, or another I am looking at , in the next week or so if I can come to a conclusion regarding the noise level issue. I am also hesitant because it doesn't have a headrest feature/option.
I saw a few of the same comments about this as well when I was doing research. I don't know if I got lucky or if it is because I have a newer chair, but I've had very minimal noise issues. I'm trying it now, and it feels like I have to go out of my way to make any noise happen. Again, maybe I got lucky with my chair, but it is something that hasn't been an issue. I would not worry about the headrest though. The way the chair is designed, it honestly feels natural with it not having one. With that said, I know there is a company (Atlas Headrest) that makes headrests you can purchase for these chairs if it really becomes something you absolutely need
Can you please disclose whether this was a partnership or you bought it yourself?
As he's providing a discount code in the description, that has most likely been either a review sample or an undisclosed promo.
can you lock it when its further back when you want to relax and watch netflix?
Was waiting for the spring sale to start and it just did. I just ordered my embody and I’m beyond pumped to get it. Thanks for the bideo
did you like it?
Yo can you share your thoughts on it?
👏👏👏

Ive been watching reviews all day on this and just bit the bullet and ordered one, £1570 though, that hurt paying that for a chair haha
Same 😂 Gone for the all black.
@@atikurrahman9304I'm just convincing myself that I spend a lot of time on it with work so it's good for my back and it will last me years 🙈

@@LeeLechner Awesome. Thanks. BTW, I used your setup as a big inspiration for my own. 🍻

Hi, I came from your xbox series x ultimate setup video, I was wondering if you could do the same for A meta quest 3, if even possible the vr headset
Nice review! Do you feel the armrests hit your desk edge if you were to aim for a 90 angle with your elbows?
Great video. I got the same one three weeks ago. I also added an Atlas headrest. Big improvement from my old gaming chair.
