Steelcase Series 2 review

User has been using the Steelcase Series 2 for over a year, sitting 4-6 hours daily. The chair is very comfortable with firm cushioning and excellent breathable back material, though armrests feel somewhat cheaply made and the lumbar support was difficult to install.

Pros

  • Excellent comfort with no numbness even after extended sitting sessions
  • Very firm seat cushion that maintains support over time
  • Breathable micro-knit back material provides great support
  • Good value compared to higher-end models
  • Zero discomfort during 4-6 hour daily use

Cons

  • Armrests feel cheaply made with felt becoming dislodged
  • Lumbar support installation instructions were unhelpful
  • Headrest is basic and only useful for specific activities
  • Recline settings all require significant resistance to lean back
