Herman Miller Embody review
This reviewer has had their Embody for just over 2 years and uses it primarily for gaming rather than office work. They find it comfortable for gaming sessions of 3-4 hours but note that it's not as plush or cushioned as traditional gaming chairs. They appreciate that the chair encourages better posture, which they believe is healthier in the long run, though it took some adjustment from their previous gaming chair. They mention that the firm support is good for their back but acknowledge that people expecting a soft, pillowy feel will be disappointed. The breathable back rest is particularly appreciated during long gaming sessions as it prevents the sweating issues they had with leather gaming chairs.
Pros
- Encourages better posture
- Breathable backrest prevents sweating
- Good firm support for back
- Better long-term health than gaming chairs
Cons
- Not as plush as gaming chairs
- Requires adjustment period
- Firm feel may disappoint some
