Steelcase Gesture review

This person purchased a Steelcase Gesture about 6 months ago and has mixed feelings. They appreciate many aspects of the chair, particularly the armrests which they find to be excellent and highly adjustable. The seat is comfortable for shorter sessions of 2-3 hours. However, during full 8-hour workdays, they find themselves needing to adjust position frequently and experiencing some discomfort in the later hours. They're uncertain whether this is an issue with the chair itself or if they still need to find the optimal adjustment settings. They're giving it more time before making a final judgment.

Pros

  • Excellent, highly adjustable armrests
  • Comfortable for 2-3 hour sessions

Cons

  • Requires frequent position adjustments during 8-hour days
  • Some discomfort during extended use
  • Uncertain about optimal adjustment settings
