Steelcase Leap V2 review
This user bought a Steelcase Leap V2 specifically for its reputation regarding back support, as they work 10-12 hour days as a developer. They've had it for about a year and a half and while they find it comfortable, they don't think it's the miracle solution some reviews suggested. The lumbar support is good and adjustable, but it hasn't completely eliminated the back fatigue they feel after very long days. They appreciate the build quality and expect the chair to last many years. The seat comfort is solid but nothing extraordinary. They think the chair is good but perhaps slightly overhyped, and the high price point sets expectations that may be unrealistic. Still, it's a quality chair that they're happy to own, just not the transformative experience they anticipated.
