Steelcase Leap V2 review

A user is comparing the Herman Miller Embody Gaming and Steelcase Leap V2 to decide which to buy. They are 6'0, 160 lbs, work 8+ hours daily, and prioritize lumbar support due to past lower back discomfort. They are leaning toward the Embody for build quality and warranty, but concerned about armrest depth limitations and the much higher price compared to the Leap V2.

Pros

  • Armrests offer better depth adjustment compared to Herman Miller Embody
  • Very attractive pricing at around 455 EUR refurbished
  • Available to test in person before purchasing

Cons

  • Concerns about seat cushion durability over time
  • Questions about overall recline feel compared to competitors
  • Perceived lower build quality compared to Herman Miller
