Hope those are affiliate links because you just sold me and I ordered a Soji direct with Haworth. Really great video. Look forward to your future content.

@danielgoen9452 Год назад

Thanks for all the great videos you folks do!! Can you please tell me where the Soji is made? Im close to buying either the Soji or the Steelcase series one. I have a broken back, so comfort is very important, and unfortunately Im poor as chit, so this is a big decision for me. Thank you very much!!!

@tipoomaster 2 года назад

I have the Very. My only problem with it is the arm adjustments are so loose that even getting in and out of the chair, it's prone to move around, and the forward backwards adjustment on it is so loose it moves just moving my arms sometimes. Is there anything to do about that, or just how it is? I also never know where to put the lumbar lol.

@Goalier95 2 года назад

Purchased the Fern Executive model without the lumbar support and have had it since mid-Feb of 2022. Use it at my home office and love it more than the one I use at my company's office which is the HM Aeron. I do miss the mesh seat for cooling properties but the back is so much more to my liking because it has no hard plasic edges on the seat and the back.

@btodtv 2 года назад

What made you decide to go without the lumbar? Did you get a chance to try it first? -GK

@Goalier95 2 года назад

@@btodtv Yes, I had visited a Haworth store in my area (Houston, TX) last December and sat on all their chairs for about 2 hours and knew my back didn't need the extra support with the lumbar. I tried the regular Fern with the stock fabric and armrests and the Executive model just felt sooooo luxurious to me. Also it came with the headrest which I wanted. I just knew that if I was going to spend over $1K on a ergo chair that I wanted something that I would enjoy for many years. Also, the regular armrest on the stock felt too "sticky" compared to the executive version which has a smoother texture. Love my Fern so much than when I come home to it even after all day at my work sitting on the Herman Miller Aeron that I can relax and play PC games and watch ESPN on and recline to its full position and crack open a Yuengling :)

@btodtv 2 года назад

That's awesome. How much time do you think you spend in it each day?

@Goalier95 2 года назад

@@btodtv Since owning it maybe about 4 hours Monday - Friday (evenings) and a bit more on the weekends. And it's just been a solid piece of engineering. Looks amazing and doesn't give off any gamer vibes but can accomplish many tasks from sitting close to my monitor or just relaxing as far back as I can. Not sure if it was mentioned in your video, but the adjustments of the knobs and levers on it are just excellent and so easy to use. I also wanted to support the family owned business in Michigan and wanted a fully-built office task chair. Also, thank you BTOD for helping me decide on a multitude of ergonomic chairs.

@trollzone1 2 года назад

I got the zody based on the recommendation of this video and did not like it all. Build quality is great, but the seat is too firm, the chair forces you to lean back 10-15 degrees (no upright lock ). Ends up hurting my back a bunch. Ended up getting a Herman Miller embody. It’s a lot nicer and comfortable of a chair…but it’s two times the cost.

@Yahfz 2 года назад

@@trollzone1 The no upright lock seems like a huge downside to me... I haven't received the chair yet though, man i hope i like it.

@trollzone1 2 года назад

@@Yahfz yeah the chair always leans back 10-15 degs and another annoyance if you’re tall the seat only slides back and forward so it leaves a large unsupported area in the back…making it a pretty pointless adjustment. My other issue is haven’t heard back from Haworth about getting a refund. I’ve called twice in the last week. If you can float $1700-$2000 buy a Herman miller embody or aeron. Both felt fantastic and are definitely a step up in quality.

@btodtv 2 года назад

Would you recommend the Fern for a shorter guy? I'm like 5'5-5'6 tall. I'm interested to know if similarly built people in your office find the Fern comfortable for their height. Thanks!

@Simmuh2 2 года назад

Im testing it right now. I am 1,72m i think its near your range. Backrest is good, i dont really like the tilt, because you cant lock it to not move at all and stay in a position. Armrest fit me well at lowest point. I have no headrest and i kinda miss it. Because when i put my head back, the lowest end of my back of the head touches the chair. Its a little unfortunate. But i got it relatively cheap without headrest and lumbar for 650€.

@duanecuaresma5663 2 года назад

@@Simmuh2 Thanks. I actually bought the Fern, having no means of getting a Steelcase or an Herman Miller in my area. So far, I'm enjoying it. I got the lumbar but no headrest.

The concerns of sitting perfectly upright are valid and that is the reason I don't like it as much. Ryan keeps the mechanism unlocked and turns up the tension to sit more upright. In my opinion, I would either sit in the Soji or the Fern. I know that doesn't fit with Ryan's favorite, but that is my take -GK
