Steelcase Leap V2 review

This person tried both the Leap V2 and the Amia in a showroom before making their decision and ultimately chose the Leap V2. They found the Leap's LiveBack technology to be more responsive and supportive for their sitting style. The Amia felt good but didn't quite match the dynamic support they experienced with the Leap. They appreciated the Amia's design and adjustability but felt the Leap was worth the extra cost for the superior back support mechanism. For their body type and the way they move while working, the Leap was simply a better biomechanical fit.

Cons

  • LiveBack technology less responsive than Leap
  • Didn't match dynamic support of Leap
  • Not worth the cost compared to Leap for their needs
