Herman Miller Embody review
The reviewer shares that they tested both the Aeron and Embody extensively before choosing the Embody for their home office. They explain that while the Aeron is excellent, the Embody's backrest design provides better support for their posture and encourages them to sit more upright naturally. The user notes that the Embody's seat is more comfortable for extended sitting sessions and doesn't have the hard edge they felt with the Aeron. They mention that the Embody costs more but felt it was worth it for the improved comfort and back support. The commenter does acknowledge that the Embody isn't as breathable as the Aeron's full mesh design and can get warm in summer without AC.
Pros
- Better back support and posture encouragement
- More comfortable seat for long sessions
- No hard edges
- Excellent for upright sitting
Cons
- More expensive than Aeron
- Less breathable, can get warm
