We're looking at the beautiful, but EXPENSIVE Herman Miller Cosm. The one I've got here is the fully upgraded chair and comes in at $2,000 USD. It uses a fancy technology called Auto-Harmonic Tilt, meaning it can adapt to the pressure you exert on it and "tilt" the perfect amount, so you feel like you're floating. Is it worth $2,000? Well, let's get Ahnest!

I have this chair (high back, night blue), and it’s great. I can sit on it for hours, and the leaf arms are very comfortable. I’m 6ft tall, 80kgs. I work remotely from my computer. My previous chair was the human scale mesh chair, and the HM Cosm is a great upgrade.

Herman Miller has been the “Rolex” of Ergo-Chairs since the 90’s.. Bank Of America purchased hundreds of Herman Miller chairs at $2500 each for a call center back in 1999 for employees to make sure they could be comfortable for an 8 hour shift. Amazingly they did their job and they looked fantastic.

$2500 a piece wholesale in 1999? Can’t be a very good bank because they clearly overpaid haha

@alteregos8949 2 года назад

@@duppa you know how that goes, we laughed when we heard what they paid too, but it was a state of the art call center that companies used to fly in and tour. The server rooms had halon fire systems and the telephony equipment they used was state of the art for the time. Then suddenly a sewer line break under the slab of the building forced it to close the entire center down a year after spending those (at the time) predatory overdraft fees from customers that funded it all.

Seeing a lot of comments about the leaf arms. When I was considering purchasing mine, I decided that while the Leaf arms look cool, I was buying the chair for workstation functionality. The adjustable arms (that were an option from the dealer) have been very good for my use case. Back support is the best of any chair I have ever tried. I sit weird, though - I keep a footrest under my desk (an ottoman specifically chosen because it is the same height as the seat pan at my ideal height - so I can stick my legs straight out and have them fully supported). Definitely not a chair for everyone - you're either gonna love it or hate it. But for my use case, it's been surprisingly great.

Also tried an embody but its it was wasn't for me - worse recline and back isn't wide enough.

@Viennagirl1120 2 года назад

I got to try out the Herman Miller chairs at one of their stores recently. I didn't care for this one, and the salesman told me that it's been kind of a flop for them. He said about 9 out of 10 buyers go for either the Aeron or the Embody. I liked the Embody much better, so that's what I'll be ordering. The only thing that kills me is the 16 week wait for most of the colors.

@666PANDEMONIUM Год назад

I think that the reason your back is hurting is because you are trying to sit up straight in the chair like it's a normal office chair. This chair is supposed to be at a permanent recline. It's more of a lounge chair than an office chair in my opinion. If you just let yourself fall into it then your entire spine will be supported. It sort of feels like a high-end hammock

@Ahnestly Год назад

I do let myself fall into it, but if I do, I'm too far back to work/type properly!

@666PANDEMONIUM Год назад

@@Ahnestly Yeah, the angle that it wants to put you at is more conducive to watching a TV show than typing on a keyboard. It's great for relaxing but a bit difficult to use for serious productivity.

@StardustLegacyFighter Год назад

This chair gets so much unwarranted hate. The leaf arms are definitely not the right way to build it, but the height adjustable arms are so much better. The auto harmonic recline mechanism definitely eliminates the need for several different types of adjustments and the experience is a lot more seamless.

@BRSxIgnition 2 года назад

Love my Cosm - was unreasonably excited to see this in my sub feed. I don't quite agree with things listed as cons in the review since some of them are big reasons I got mine in the config that I did - Nightfall, Highback, Leaf Arms. I actually got a full week to try out the Aeron, Embody, and Cosm side by side in my house thanks to the AD I went through and the Cosm was the only one I could sit in for a full work day, likely due to the more flexible lumbar support. Because the leaf arms are angled and further back, when coupled with the AHT they serve to level them out with your table, unlike the Aeron arms which lift up at the front when you lean back. Also, regarding AD's and Pricing, through an AD you can get the Cosm down to around the price of an Aeron through that same AD anyway. Still, great video!

@Ahnestly 2 года назад

Hey I am ALWAYS ok with people disagreeing! Everyone is different. I used a Humanscale Freedom back in the day (similar concept - no controls) and it DESTROYED my back. Hope people are able to see this to get a different perspective!!

@frogturtle 2 года назад

Yeah that is a little annoying on the Aeron, though having your arms move with you adds to the floatyness. And with an adjustable desk it’s not as big a deal. But I was really interested in the Cosm at first. I think it is by far the best looking chair you can buy. Hope it continues to serve you well

Was just wondering if Cosm was better than Aeron in terms of ergonomics and comfort.

@bluegrass571 2 года назад

Interesting review. I dunno man, I couldn't be more disappointed in the Cosm. It seems like Herman Miller's love of mesh aesthetics that they've cultivated beginning with the success of the Aeron have come home to roost with the Cosm. You made an interesting point about the shoulder support, but I think I'd rather be able to stretch my arms unrestricted behind my back. This is form over function in a serious way. I know you like the Aeron, but have you had a chance to try Herman Miller's older padded chairs like the Ergon 3? They are awesome, and the only thing they are lacking is some of the more advanced tilt control of the more recent chairs. For $2K, Herman Miller could've made an amazing padded chair (and probably quite a beautiful one too). Look at chairs like the Herman Miller Taper. Those are expensive, but they seem a lot more ergonomic than this chair. Anyway, it's great to have someone with an eye for ergonomics like you do a review of something, because I wanted to make sure I appreciate any innovations that this chair is introducing. Thanks.

@Ahnestly 2 года назад

I tried this chair at the HM showroom, and it is by far their worst chair. The armrests are pretty much completely unusable. And because there's almost no adjustments, it's essentially a big hard mesh net. It does look executive as all hell though, like something some silicon valley CEO would sit on, but was a hard pass for me.

Having used both the Herman Miller Aeron and Cosm, I can say I still prefer the Steelcase gesture. Still better than any "racing gamer" chair tho

@lidders244 2 года назад

no shit they are better, also 4-5x the price

@BRSxIgnition 2 года назад

Having used Cosm, Aeron, and Embody side by side for a week and owning a Gesture for about a month, I sold the used Gesture as soon as I could and went on to spend double on my Cosm. Lighter, better built, more comfortable, not a sweat magnet, and I can actually sit in it for more than 4 hours at a time. Not to downplay your experience, chairs are like people, everyone's got their preferences.

@lidders244 2 года назад

@Leagueclips i am kinda getting the opposite of this, i am 6'4 and finding a chair that fits me is kinda impossible. The Cosm only just fit my shoulders, and the seat was way too small (depth wise) but it was comfortable.

It's so funny...I think the Gesture is THE most controversial chair. I thought Secretlab would be the most controversial, but that hasn't been the case. I get DAILY comments of people loving their gesture and others just DESTROYING it. And this love/hatred comes from all kinds of people - taller people, heavier people, skinnier people, etc!! I do recommend that people try both the Gesture and any HM chair because both company's returns policies are EXCELLENT!

Actually, the Steelcase Gesture or the Leap feels and sits like a cheapo' office store chair next to an Aeron or an Embody - and this fact is even more painful considering the price of Steelcase chairs... The Gesture is a bit better because of its armrests and seatpad, but both feel very-very cheap (for such overpricing it is offensively low-grade feel), with low quality foam paddings, sleazy-wobbly control knobs, creaking-clucking plastics, harsh and unresponsive lumbar, badly positioned headrest. Honestly, I don't understand the hype around Steelcase chairs...

I didn’t mention it this time due to the sponsor plug getting long but that’s something they’re working on. Here’s a paraphrase from them: “In regards to customs, we are aware of the hefty fees that can be added on. We are currently working on this and are opening a warehouse within the EU so chairs can go out through Europe without the customs tax - we will be fully integrating this into our operations within the next few weeks. In the next few days, we will be increasing the shipping slightly and we will have the customs charges charged to us and not the buyer as a temporary measure until we have our facility within the EU up and running"

Hey all, so I am new to this sponsoring thing and want to make sure I work with reputable brands only, so really appreciate the feedback - some people voiced this before and this was Aeron International's response (summarized): "In regards to customs, we are aware of the hefty fees that can be added on. We are currently working on this and are opening a warehouse within the EU so chairs can go out through Europe without the customs tax - we will be fully integrating this into our operations within the next few weeks. In the next few days, we will be increasing the shipping slightly and we will have the customs charges charged to us and not the buyer as a temporary measure until we have our facility within the EU up and running" As for product stock, looks like they just got stock in today!

@Ahnestly 2 года назад

If you think of it from an investment perspective, this makes much more sense than 80% of the things we buy. I use it 8 hours a day 5 days a week and have peace of mind for the next 12 years. What can you say that about that you own? Your $1,000 phone that’ll last you 2-3 years before battery breaks down? A $30,000 car that you drive maybe 2 hours at most a day and causes issues 3-4 years in? Your $200 shoes that you barely wear? Just a thought!

@Stefan-wp2qr 2 года назад

@@Ahnestly yeah, your reply is not really valid, since most of the people in the world are not able to spend that much money on any of those things. The problem is that you live in a bubble and you can't comprehend some things. I don't blame you, you've just never experienced certain things. I use a $200 phone, drive a $2200 used Fiat (and I'm perfectly satisfied with those items, no complaints) and a $120 chair, which is not perfect, like no other chair is, but it works, the only thing that it lacks for me is a bit more seat depth, but it was still $120, not $2000. Talking about health and posture, since you've mentioned it, only physical activity and active lifestyle will keep your back and body in a good shape for a longer time. Sitting for 8 hours a day will deteriorate your body, no matter what kind of chair you use. That being said, I am all for buying a decent office chair, but there is absolutely no chair that is worth $2000. Speaking about materials used, labor to produce it, designing process, all things considered, it is not worth $2000, not even close. Plus, you've found several flaws that are not so minor, so why would you even consider paying that amount of money for something that is flawed as much as a $300 chair? So yes, people who pay that amount of money for a chair, and justify its price by talking about health, brand, quality or whatever are sheep
