Herman Miller Embody review
The user posted a comprehensive final update after extensively testing the Embody alongside many other chairs over several weeks. They found that the Embody is by far the best chair they've ever sat in, ranking second place to it, and not even close to the Embody for them to the point where they would come home from trying different chairs and it actually feels refreshing. However, they mention their opinion of the aeron has gotten much worse the longer they sit in it, and they're not sure if the powerful backrest in the Embody is the issue. They note the aeron is far too aggressive and it feels like it's pushing out of the chair, which results in them ironically slouching in the chair. They had to mention that it still does not give them any type of pain even when sitting in it for 6+ hours.
Pros
- Best chair they've ever sat in
- Feels refreshing to come home to after trying other chairs
- Does not cause any pain even after 6+ hours of sitting
- Second place chair is not even close to the Embody
Cons
- Possibly too powerful backrest for some users
- Some uncertainty about long-term suitability
