Steelcase Leap V2 review
A commenter strongly recommends the Leap V2 for people with bigger bodies, stating that those with larger frames often don't like the Embody backrest design. They emphasize that the Leap V2 will correct posture while also providing flexibility when desired. They note that used Leap chairs are much easier to find than used Embodys based on their experience. For brand new purchases, they consider the Leap cheaper than the Embody, and wouldn't put the Haworth Fern on the same level as the Embody and Leap V2. They definitively state this is a Steelcase Leap V2 recommendation (TLDR at the end of their comment). The commenter is being honest about not thinking the Embody warrants the 1300 euro price difference over the Leap V2 in the original poster's case, calling the Leap V2 a pretty safe pick for high-end office chairs. They're 5'8" themselves.
Pros
- Corrects posture while allowing flexibility
- Good for people with bigger bodies
- Much easier to find used than Embody
- Cheaper than Embody when buying new
- Safe pick for high-end office chairs
