Steelcase Leap V2 review

User extremely dissatisfied with Steelcase Leap v2 after extended use as a programmer. Reports excessively firm seat cushion causing discomfort, inadequate lumbar support leading to severe back pain after 10+ hour sessions, and casters damaging hardwood floors. Seeking full mesh alternative with adjustable headrest and quiet wheels.
