Steelcase Leap V2 review
User is deciding between Herman Miller Embody Gaming, Steelcase Leap V2, and Anthros chairs for 8+ hour workdays and gaming. Currently using IKEA Markus which lacks support and adjustability. Previous HBADA E3 Pro caused shoulder blade pain.
Pros
- Embody Gaming has 12-year warranty and reputation for comfort
- User prefers upright sitting position and needs good recline function
- Looking for long-lasting chair with good pressure distribution
Cons
- Cannot test any chairs in person before purchasing
- Concerned Embody may not fit properly and has mixed reviews on lumbar support
- Worried Leap V2 might feel too firm or basic
- Anthros has limited long-term user reviews making it risky choice
- Current IKEA Markus lacks support and adjustability for long sessions
- Previous HBADA E3 Pro felt cheap and caused shoulder blade pain
- Sensitive to upper backrest potentially digging into shoulder blades
