Herman Miller Embody review

This commenter responds critically to the suggestion of adding a seat cushion to a 2k+ dollar chair, expressing that they find the Embody chairs to be definitely overpriced. However, they acknowledge pragmatically that adding an inexpensive seat cushion is still the easiest and most practical way to salvage the existing chair rather than purchasing something else entirely. They seem to view the need for aftermarket modifications as evidence that the chair doesn't deliver sufficient value at its premium price point.

Cons

  • Overpriced for what it delivers
  • Requires aftermarket modifications to be truly comfortable
