Steelcase Gesture review
The reviewer works from home and uses a Steelcase Gesture as their primary chair for 10-12 hours daily, including both work and gaming. They've had the chair for about 18 months and report that it has held up well to this intensive use. They specifically chose the Gesture because they needed a chair that could handle both focused work postures and more relaxed positions for gaming and video watching. The soft seat works well for their varied use cases, and they appreciate being able to shift between different positions throughout the day. They find the armrests particularly useful for gaming. Some wear is starting to show on the fabric, but the functionality remains excellent.
Pros
- Handles 10-12 hours daily use well
- Good for both work and gaming
- Supports varied sitting positions
- Excellent armrests for gaming
- Good durability after 18 months
Cons
- Some fabric wear starting to show
