Steelcase Leap V2 review

This user has owned their Steelcase Leap V2 for about five years and uses it for both work and gaming, often sitting for twelve-plus hour days. They find the chair has held up remarkably well with minimal maintenance, just occasional tightening of bolts. The cushioning is still supportive after five years of heavy use. They appreciate that all the adjustments stay in place and don't drift over time. The user notes the chair can feel a bit stiff initially but breaks in nicely after a few weeks. They mention that the lumbar support took some time to dial in correctly but once properly adjusted, it's been perfect for preventing lower back fatigue. For the price they paid (used), they consider it one of their best purchases.

Pros

  • Durable over 5 years of heavy use
  • Adjustments stay in place
  • Supportive cushioning
  • Prevents lower back fatigue once properly adjusted
  • Great value used

Cons

  • Initially feels stiff
  • Lumbar takes time to adjust correctly
