Steelcase Leap V2 review

The commenter tested both the Leap V2 and Embody extensively in person at local showrooms. They acknowledge the Leap V2 is an excellent chair and came very close to being their choice. They found it had premium build quality, smooth operation, and great back support. However, after thorough testing, they found the Embody to be slightly more comfortable overall. They note they may have tried a V1 rather than V2 model. The decision was difficult and they would have been happy with either chair.

Pros

  • Excellent overall
  • Premium build
  • Great back support
  • Smooth operation

Cons

  • Slightly less comfortable than Embody
