Herman Miller Embody review

The reviewer bought the chair four months ago and while they appreciate the quality and design, they find it doesn't suit their sitting style. They tend to sit cross-legged or with one leg tucked under them, and the chair's design doesn't accommodate these positions well. They acknowledge that the chair is designed for proper ergonomic sitting posture, but they struggle to maintain that position all day. For people who sit in a traditional upright position, they think the chair would be excellent, but for those with more casual or varied sitting habits, it might not be the best fit despite its high quality.

Pros

  • High quality construction
  • Good design for traditional sitting
  • Excellent for proper ergonomic posture

Cons

  • Doesn't accommodate cross-legged sitting
  • Not suitable for varied sitting positions
  • Requires maintaining upright posture
