I sat in it. I didn't understand that there was a difference, until now. This has been the second-most useful video I've ever seen on youtube (after one teaching me how to use a torque wrench to re-attach the break caliper on a 2012 Acura).

One spec I'd wish you'd have mentioned for each chair is their weight limit. I just started looking for a chair and as I am about 240, I need to ensure that I don't crush a flimsy chair. Other than that, I like your videos. One question regarding headrests: doing I really want one or not? I guess my answer would be based on how much reclining I'd be doing. My last chair was one of those bonded leather models and I was able to recline with my head supported. But that bonded stuff, geez, did it snow when I carried it out of my house to toss it.

If you live in a metropolitan center, you can definitely get something like a HM Mira for < 250 and an Aeron for < 700. For the Aeron, I'd rather pay more and get the configuration I want, but if you're looking for something < 300, I feel like a used Mira is definitely the way to go as opposed to a new or refurbished chair

To answer the question of my pick, I have the Herman Miller Aeron remastered at the office, and while it is really nice, I actually prefer my old Kinnarps 6000 Free-float, that I have at home to it. The ability to lock it in any position, combined with the denser padding and cloth upholstery is just a winning combination for me!

Ya'll ever mess with Vitra stuff? I had placed an order for a custom ID-L tall-back in some crazy fun colors, however the owner of the shop gave me the loaner of a brand new but discontinued 'Pacific' high-back, and I fell in love. Took me 2 days to cancel the order on the ID and negotiate a fair price for the Pacific. The back is fantastic, with the vertical adjustments and it's got this amazing ability to fold over backwards when you lean far enough back and can STREEEEETTTTCHHHH your spine in the most amazing way ever. I'm in love!

I believe that the Steelcase Think V2 is a seriously underrated chair. I know that it's not for everyone but I love the 3D-knit backrest. It's the only backrest that I find to be truly comfortable because it has the breathability of a mesh-back with the support of a hard-back. Also, I love that the seat is an actual cushion as opposed to just mesh. It is soft enough to sink into but firm enough to support my weight.

I like this type of format. Straight to the point. Unfortunately it also proves that good chairs remain expensive and thus the more expected models were chosen. I came here because I was looking for a chair for my gaming desk without having to go for a typical gaming chair. I already had my eye on the Merryfair Wau 2 / HJH Spektre (same chairs, different brands so I guess that should raise red flags) because well, yes, esthetics are also a factor for a modern look. The mesh combined with that really eye-catching white and grey spacy design appealed but as it currently stands I am not that sure anymore. Also, though you get what you pay for in most cases when sticking to the established brands, I also think it is about balancing between what is healthy and good for you while also still remaining it justifiable. In my case that would be a chair that does a great job for the time I will be using it (not professionally) while also offering a design that fits in with a modern gaming / production room. So starting all over again and probably turning away from the HJH Spektre / Merryfair Wau 2...sigh

As pointed out in their video refurbished chairs are always an option that can bring the price down to something more affordable. For instance they suggested the Amia and while the price is around $900-1000 for a new chair I see Madison Seating is selling a refurbished one for $300 and I see other used Amias in the same price range. Given the quality of Steelcase products I wouldn't worry too much about their lifespan.

Thank you so much for this video. Decided to buy the Ticova for my home office setup after seeing this, as it was the only "affordable" option in Spain. Ended up paying 160€ for it ($178) as it had a 40€ discount on Amazon. This is the *first and only* chair I've ever sat on in which I find myself using good posture. The list includes the Herman Miller Celle that I used for 6 years at a certain giant database company.

My Ticova is sheering where the back connects to the base. When I got it in October of 2023 I was around 260 pounds. I've lost 30+ pounds since then so I'm not as hard on it as I was. For a $120 chair, I'm very impressed with its comfort and options, just bummed that it's breaking. I'm between buying another one and just expecting a year out of it or getting a used slightly higher end option. Eventually I'd like to get the Fern.

Get an Aeron and buy an atlas headrest separately if you want a chair with a headrest. I understand why they don't care about headrests because typically they are fixed or offer very little adjustment, and usually you have to lean your head so far back it puts you in an awkward position. I personally rarely used the headrests on chairs and the only reason I bought one for the Aeron is I figured I already spent so much damn money getting a fully loaded Aeron, I might as well spend a little more to have the complete package. But it was an absolute gamechanger due to the huge range of adjustment. Now I use my headrest constantly because I have it positioned where I only have to lean my head back an inch and it hits my neck in the perfect position so it feels natural to use and not like I have to look down my nose to see the screen like with every other headrest I have tried. If you want a high end chair with a headrest Aeron + Atlas headrest is the obvious choice, imo. Especially considering how few options there are for high end chairs with headrests, I am pretty confident in saying you probably won't be able to find anything better.

Leap V2's backrest and wider variety of adjustments The Gesture's seat adjustment, headrest and it's stability, and the arms Amia's seat A bonus thing they could do would be give it a uniform look like the Gesture and the Herman Miller Aeron Remastered Another bonus would clearly be the option to pick between a leather or fabric back and a leather or fabric seat individually (and I guess the headrest, which should probably come with a mesh option) Maybe it will be called the Steelcase Frankenstein, or perhaps the Leap V3

Bought an ACMELIFE from Amazon a year ago for 290 € Just returned it, because the seat lock doesn't lock any more, and worse, the back mesh fixation is broken just below my shoulder on 20 cm. No more tension on the back mesh. And this chair is now sold 120 € less than last year. A scam. I should get a refund, but I'm still waiting. Now struggling to find a replacement, confidence lost in many models seen on Amazon. Especially when you cannot try before buying. Thanks for the tests and feed-backs. Really appreciated. But don't forget we don't have the chance you have to try almost anything you want when you want.

I was heart-set about getting the Refurbished Amia or Leap, but Haworth has a sale for the Digital Knit Fern for under $1000 right now, and I never thought I could convince myself to spend that much money on a chair yet. I just have to convince myself to spend the extra money because the deal seems insane!

Some tips to buy a high end office chair for discount: 1) Try the chair out at a showroom and it gets a little grey but you can buy it, and use it for some time. 2) if you like the chair, return the one you got from Herman Miller/Haworth/etc. and find an authorized dealer in the area who sells chairs, they will usually have it for 40-50% less price but won't allow a return, so definitely try a chair and if you're sure, you can buy through an AD for saving some money!

Herman Miller X Logitech G for my gaming setup. I was developing really bad lower back pain/problems from my old Secret lab Omega this chair has fixed all those issues. I do like the look and features of the Fern but with all the additions it's even more expensive than the Logitech Embody. Overall I'd say the Fern is going to suit more people, the Embody can be a love it or hate it kind of deal. I just hope Atlas are not futher delayed with the Embody head rest which will be a game changer for taller people.

I'd get a Zody Stool fully loaded, with headrest too. No leather anywhere, full mesh, with the best non-abrasive seat fabric they got. And yes, they exist, or at least I have seen Haworth brochures where they are listed. At an eye-wattering 3k+ (and at this price range, I would probably buy it with 2 or 3 replacement armpads because they WILL tear apart, so add an extra 50 per).

No real options for house dust mite allergy sufferers. There needs to be options with either leather covered foam seats/backs, or plastic covered. The only option in the chairs you covered is the Herman MIller Aeron. It does not have material covered foam which is where dust mites will go to live. Which causes a source of allergen right by the user.

I recently picked up a Steelcase Please. Thought I would invest a bit in my back since my last chair was a cheap office chair I got for free, which did not go well wirh my chronic backpain. Before I have never ever had a decent office chair. Thus, I went to a local office supplier and sat my way through 20 high end office chairs. In the end the Please and Gesture ended up in the closer range. The Please is definitely not the most comfortable chair out there, but damn is this thing nice to sit on. No more backpain for the rest of my life. The Gesture definitely has the better headrest and armrests (however I found them to move quite easily unwillingly) but the Please has just an amazing backrest, that forces me to sit in a pain-free position throughout the day. Would love to see your opinion on that model, but I think it is not even available in the US, despite being amongst the - if not the - most popular Steelcase Chair in Europe.

I went to staples the other day go get a new chair. I play lots of computer games. I sat in 20 different chairs 1t of which were office chairs and 5 where gaming chairs. Ranging from 250 to 500. I ended up picking a 319 dollar gaming chair. Yes it can be uncomfortable if you try sitting with one leg under you. I'm also too tall for it so the head rest is useless. However the arm rests are very adjustable. They can slide back and forth, tilt side to side, and go up and down setting them at the right height. I was using a cheap office chair before. And my right wrist would get so sore. Because the arm rest was fixed and I couldn't adjust it. My wrist was resting heavily on my mouse pad with the weight of my arm. The new chair fixed this issue. Now I can game without my wrist hurting. The only other chair I liked was a mesh office chair. But I have 4 cats they would have ripped it apart. And if that mesh ripped the whole chair would be useless.

I ended up purchasing a Fern w/polished metal frame, 4D arms, lumbar support, headrest, and the uprade quilted fabric, for $323 after tax! That is a $2k chair! I tried Ferns with both lumbar and without, and my personal preference I liked the lumbar support more. Headrest is ok, but not great. Still, its not intrusive.

But in the Netherlands the Haworth Fern Digital Knit back is not available. The Haworth dealer in Amsterdam said that is because of the higher standards in Europe regarding quality. I am going to test the Steelcase chairs too and the Herman Miller ones. I am looking forward to testing these Steelcase Amia, Gesture and Herman Miller Cosm, Aeron and Embody.
