Steelcase Gesture review

User tested Steelcase Gesture alongside other high-end chairs and found it to be a good chair overall. However, they preferred the Steelcase Leap due to its superior armrests, which have a fixed lock versus the Gesture's semi-lock mechanism. They felt fixed arms work better for computer and mouse users.

Pros

  • Good chair overall
  • Considered among high-end office chair options

Cons

  • Armrests have semi-lock mechanism that doesn't lock as well as fixed arms
  • Infinitely moveable arms are less suitable for computer and mouse users compared to fixed arms
