Steelcase Leap V2 review

User purchased a used Steelcase Leap V2 manufactured in 2004 for $150-200 in 2017. After 7 years of ownership (as of 2024), the chair remains in nearly perfect condition and is expected to last another 10 years. The reviewer loves the chair and found it great for managing lower back pain and sciatica.

Pros

  • Exceptional durability - still in nearly perfect condition after 20 years (manufactured 2004, reviewed 2024)
  • Excellent value when purchased used from office furniture warehouses
  • Great for lower back pain and sciatica relief
  • Looks nearly new even after 7 years of use without special care
  • Expected to last another 10+ years

Cons

  • High price when new, requires buying used to get good value
