Haworth Zody II review
This reviewer purchased their Zody II about one year ago specifically for their home recording studio where they spend long hours mixing audio. They needed a chair that was comfortable for extended periods but also quiet - no squeaks or creaks that could be picked up by sensitive microphones. The Zody II has been perfect for this use case, remaining completely silent even when adjusting positions frequently. The mesh back doesn't rustle or make noise like leather chairs they've tried. The lumbar support is comfortable and they appreciate being able to adjust it throughout long sessions. The build quality inspires confidence that it will last for many years. The only minor issue is that the casters are a bit loud on their hardwood floor, but they solved this with a chair mat. They highly recommend it for anyone in audio production or similar quiet-environment work.
