Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons
The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

It is insanely comfortable compared to one of those other monstrosities that destroyed my back about a year in. It's one level down so i can recline just a tad. I think the balance fabric is supposed to breathe better but this one is still better than...  Read More

The embody despite being a questionable value at the price is an undeniably good chair. This one is in my opinion a noticeably better chair than that (and that’s saying a lot) the bottom line on this chair is that it is unexpectedly miraculous. All th...  Read More

This is a purpose built ergonomic work chair that will benefit your posture and back health. It's super flexible and adjustable. The herman miller embody chair is an unparalleled choice for ergonomic seating.

Took like 15 seconds and probably is a result of poor handling during shipping but otherwise, arrived in fine shape. Don't misunderstand. It is well worth the money paid! Worth every penny.

The discomfort i feel feels as though it's from my lumbar vertebrae gently shifting into proper alignment. My lower back pain is now non-existent and can sit for hours without it hurting.



Cons

The back of this chair barely makes it half way up my shoulder blades. The lumbar support is far too low and feels like its constantly punching you off of the overly short and not well enough inclined seat.

There is no way this chair comes anywhere close to justifying its cost. I haven't been able to fully assemble the chair. This is a very heavy chair -- 65 pounds -- to be returning, and that combined with the cost of returning it, is why it is not in o...  Read More

Overall a frustrating experience and the return process is also inconvenient since this is such a large item. Exchanged it, same thing. My estimate of what it should cost is <$130.

Quality


The seat is very comfortable, breathes well, offers great support and is built to last.


The ease with which these adjustments can be made allows users to fine-tune their seating experience to their exact needs, high...  Read More


The cushion area is a more extreme version of the back-- it's made up of a ton of cells that are around a square inch apiece.


This chair for me--5'10", 210lbs--feels like it was built for my body specifically, with almost no adjustment.

Price


$1200 is a lot of money, and a lot more than i would expect to spend on a piece of office furniture.


The real issue is that the price is so high.


This chair is worth the price tag, and even then some.

Shipping


I’m delighted to report that the chair was delivered a day earlier than expected and arrived in perfect condition.


I contacted the seller and they answered me immediately, and made everything right.

Packaging/appearance


It's worth noting that this chair arrived with a broken wheel and a compromised seat extension control, attributed to the selle...  Read More


Despite a less-than-ideal experience with the third-party seller from whom this particular chair was purchased, our review focu...  Read More

Competitiveness


It is very comfortable when comparing it to cheaper office chairs and even secret lab which i also have.


I hope i have been able to give you a good comparison that can show you the difference between a few of them so you can determi...  Read More


In that case, you might want to look at the aeron which offers different height adjustment ranges, seat widths, etc.
