Steelcase Leap V2 review

The poster purchased an armless Steelcase Leap V2 for only $20 on Facebook Marketplace and is now interested in retrofitting arms onto it. They acknowledge they're not losing much money if the retrofit doesn't work out, but would obviously prefer to have arms if possible. They've found that information online about whether this modification is doable appears mixed, and the main challenge seems to be sourcing the arm assemblies themselves—they haven't been able to find any available online. They've proactively reached out directly to both Crandall and Steelcase and are currently waiting to hear back from these companies about parts availability.

Pros

  • Extremely affordable purchase at $20

Cons

  • Chair came without arms
  • Difficulty sourcing arm assemblies online
  • Mixed information about feasibility of retrofit
