Steelcase Series 1 review

The Steelcase Series 1 is described as total crap compared to the Leap, with a back adjustment that only offers extreme positions (totally upright or basically laying down) with nothing in the middle. The reviewer found it almost comparable to a $40 Amazon chair and emphasizes that comfort depends on the entire ergonomic setup, not just the chair alone.

Cons

  • Poor back recline adjustment with only extreme positions (fully upright or nearly laying down)
  • Quality comparable to a cheap $40 Amazon chair
  • Much inferior to the Steelcase Leap
