Herman Miller Embody
Reddit take
Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.
Pros
- For $1k, you should be able to pick up a used Hermann Miller Aeron (or maybe an Embody if you’re lucky)
- I have an embody and it's real nice. I'd reccomend going to a local office furnature store to try them out.
- I love my embody. The only reason i start feeling "sore" in it is when i havent moved in hours...which cannot be solved by anything, but moving.
- I own a Herman Miller Embody, and I can vouch for it's quality. Suffice it to say that it "healed" a problem that I didn't realize was caused by my previous generic office chair.
- Nice chair. Is the Herman miller embody? Just ordered that.
Cons
- I have an Embody now and previously had a pre-owned Aeron, I preferred the Aeron for the fact you never got warm in it. Is it big enough of a change to make me look at replacing the Embody? No. But I def preferred it.
- The Embody can feel hard at first and sometimes pushes into your lower back more than you’d like. I have a friend who has one and got used to it after a couple of weeks when we were gaming, but I know some people have said the Leap is ea...
- whereas the Embody's backrest only touches you when you lean back. In theory the Embody should be better for reclining and leisure, but for some reason it just hasn't been that comfy for me (but that could be because it's old).
- I have both the Herman Miller Embody and the Aeron. They're great chairs but not worth their price.

I love the gaming Embody! It’s incredibly supportive and actually let me sit comfortably again after a back injury. I have sciatica and there’s basically no nerve pain anymore.
Some chairs like the Embody aim to cradle the whole back but most don’t need to support the upper spine unless you’re reclining quite far back.
the support and adjustments I get from my embody are amazing compared to every other chair I've used.
You can get a 'gaming' version of the herman miller embody and Aeron... Yes they are expensive, but it is worth it when sitting for long periods of time.
