Chair Expert Reacts: JayzTwoCents Needs a New Chair??

[@IndigoVikingTV]

I was just thinking the other day when I was cleaning my office, how well built my Herman Miller Embody Gaming chair is. The design has so much thought put into it, things you wouldn't notice at first glance. The bottom chair base (where the wheels go into) is designed where the top is a pyramid shape, which makes it so that dust and debris doesn't build up on it where other chairs are flat and it builds up dust. I have never been so happy with a chair, in terms of comfort, build quality, durability and design.

[@droomagon]

except for the arms for the stupid clonking noise whenever it comes in and out, and it will broke over time, because my friend's embody has already broken down twice, and yes i said twice

[@leryeo]

I think he will always find it hard because he is like 6'3, 6'4 and I own embody and leap and prefer the leap. Sat in many chairs and always preferred the leap. Jay should make a Lamia as that is end goal chair!

[@Ahnestly]

From a google search, he's actually 5'11, but who knows! At 5'11...almost every chair will fit him. I think he wants a headrest though.

[@NyteStalker89]

My two cents.. Jay throws his weight into his chairs. He even says as much. I don't care what chair you get. Someone his height and weight that just yeets themselves into a chair, is going to eventually get pops and creaking when sitting in it. They are designed for a specific max weight.. yeeting into it day after day is going to push the chair beyond that limit.

[@Kelekona_808]

LOL at people yeeting themselves into chairs. I'm sure that would be a hilarious video or series of videos.

I bought a HM Gaming Embody about 2 years ago mostly based on your videos on reviewing chairs and can easily say it's the best chair I've ever owned. Seeing Jay's video on the Steelcase... yeah honestly if I was one of the people who bought one of those based on his recommendations and now seeing this video by him, I'd be pretty furious and probably not trust his opinion again, especially seeing how much money he made from that partnership. Really glad I found you especially when you put your own money on the line to review all those chairs. Keep up the great work.

I got my Embody based on your "Reviews". I'm a tall guy "Freak" (6 foot 4 inches tall), and this chair has treated me well for the past 2ish years. EDIT: The Atlas headset is VERY NICE for tall freaks also!

[@andreasels779]

I use a Steelcase Gesture for around 5 years now (for 40+ hours a week) and while I am generally really happy with it and don't regret the purchase at all, you have to admit, that it tends to do some squeeking noises when you move in certain ways. How loud and often it squeeks, seems to depend on the room temperature and/or humidity from my experience. My chair also had a failure of the tilt mechanism, which resulted in really loud cracks when leaning back (started after around 1 year of use). This however was fixed under warranty no problem and I got a replacement chair from my retailer during the time it was away for repair. I don't have any problems with the headrest, but I also don't use it as often and when I do, it's in the way you are describing as the intended way.

[@viscuro]

Thx. What kind of chair are you using now?

[@Ahnestly]

every different kind of chair on earth....I test them almost every other week! But I have a few favorites. Anthros for proper sitting (my posture is so bad) Fern with digitial knit back (sitting on it right now when I WFH and love it so much). Gaming Embody - My overall rounder. It lets me slouch in it too easily though...but that's why I love it lol

[@mead5185]

in my opinion youtubers like this guy love to be insanely overdramatic and piss their pants about everything for views and i just think its super boring and stupid. woah if you use the headrest wrong itll break?? i can't believe this... i like your videos because you are extremely calm and balanced and chill and you never make a massive spectacle out of anything and i respect that.

Bought HM Embody brand new on ebay for $900 with no warranty still going strong after 6 years.

[@Etb323]

11:24 I also agree with Jay about Steelseries long term quality. Where I work everything used to be Herman. The chairs are still ok and are pretty usable. However, they refreshed some spades with Steelseries and after a year, there were several chairs with issues with the recliner, arms, the desk dividers started falling apart. That's why I bought Herman for my personal chair.

[@formulaic78]

I actually watched Jayz video before this. While watching I commented something like " why is he complaining if he hasn't used his warranty and seen what Steelcase say about his issues". I also think you make an excellent observation about them essentially using the headrests incorrectly. I probably would be doing the same with my atlas headrest if I hadn't watched your videos.

I bought my Gesture with headrest after lots of research and your videos. I watched Jay's video and was literally shocked at the condition of their chairs. I am also size "fat" and my chair is still like new, so it makes me wonder what the hell they were doing to those chairs?! My only complaint is I wanted more cushion so I added a gel cushion to catch the booty juices. My chronic back pain has gone away since I got this chair. Love it.

[@droomagon]

it depends on the user of the chair, if you have been watching Jay for the past few years, he isn't sort of a person who is gentle with things (except PC stuff and components), even with his car he isn't particularly gentle with them either, so with that mentality, his "fat" just sit on the chair day in and day out, its bound wear itself out pretty quick, but i give credit to that gas cylinder didn't explode though

[@roadkill11000]

@@droomagon For sure. I watch all Jayz stuff. Watching the RTFM show right now. I always see him treat his tools and components with care except when he is intentionally testing durability. So it was surprising to me to see his chairs in such bad shape especially when I have the same chair that I use all day every day and is still in great shape.

Before I was ahnestly the chair guy, I was ahnestly the tech tuber, so I watch all the tech tubers.

Hey! I doubt I'll be able to pick up that chair as I keep getting errors when trying to purchase and just not enough interest to justify spending that much on a video unfortunately...

[@DogiTheWallcrusher]

I have a freak long torso so I can't use any headrests. Got a karman recently but I'm not enjoying it at all. Doesn't help that one of the armrests came broken, but I also just don't like the 4D thing they designed. I get the idea but give me a way to lock it in place

[@Etb323]

10:03 he's right about the gaming embody having this stuff to keep it cooler. It's in the FAQ as well as the extra cushion. Also I remember reading about it having copper when I was researching it before buying.

[@Ahnestly]

Hey! Never said the cooling stuff isn’t correct, but he said the non gaming had extra padding and a thicker fabric. Check out my comparison video!

[@weirdodude1173]

I have an Embody, a newer office one. And it's not as great as the internet makes it out to be. It was very loud when I first got it and I had to lube the heck out of the seat suspension rails to quiet it down. The backrest does not conform to the back as well as some non-adjustable chairs with natural curves do. I would caution anyone to be prepared to return it within 30 days if they aren't totally happy with it or they could get stuck with a too-expensive chair that is not as comfortable as ones half its price.

[@Ahnestly]

Different chairs for different folks! I can only speak to the 10 or so people who’ve been in my studio who think the embody is incredible and the best chair (esp when paired to atlas headrest). But they all preferred the gaming version bc of the thicker padding!

[@HappyStupendous]

The gaming embody has the copper infused cooling foam, and sometime around 2020 the normal embody got an upgraded foam padding that wasn't there before. This was the main reason I purchased the normal embody over the nicer looking gaming version.

[@Ahnestly]

Hey! So that happened in 2021 and it was to the seat (added a scrim layer). My non gaming embody is a late 2023 model and my gaming was from 2020ish!

[@ei..]

I have a gesture at work. It's from before i started, so not sure how old it is, but it has most of the same issues. It creaks a lot, and the headrest is very floppy. We tried getting it covered by the warranty, but due to being in a country where steelcase no longer sells chairs officially, we would have to pay for shipping both ways which ends up at around €300. Edit: I dont know who used it before, but it wasn't creaking when i started. I'm about 60kg, so my weight should not be an issue. I slouch a lot, and put my weight on the backrest, but again, at my weight it shouldn't be a problem

[@Ahnestly]

So if you were to make the video Jay made, I think my conclusion would be yes, absolutely do not buy a Gesture and/or avoid Steelcase. You paid that extra money for insurance, and never got it so screw Steelcase, go buy something else.

[@keblin86]

You really love the embody, but are you using that as your main chair right now? I get the impression your not? lol. If so howcome? It's just gone on sale and I told myself next time it does I am buying it. Going to try decide tomorrow. I've wanted to try it for so long! lol

At my studio, when I'm able to grab it, I grab the gaming Embody, Haworth Breck, or Anthros chair depending on what I'm looking for that day. Just depends on what my needs are. Gaming Embody - when I want to work and lounge, my go-to, esp with the Atlas headrest. Haworth Breck - I'm loving this thing..my butt feels so good in it. Not the best built chair, but super breathable and great seat experience for not much money. Anthros chair - my posture sucks in chairs so when I know I need to sit healthier, I grab this.

One of the comments on Jay's videos said that apparently the newer version of the regular embody has updated to the same thicker padding that is used on the gaming version because of its reception. I have no idea how true that is, but just thought I would point it out.

[@Ahnestly]

The Embody I bought and compared is a 2024 chair. I didn't want to get into all the nerdy stuff, but the regular Embodys were updated in 2021. However, it wasn't the backrest that got an upgrade - the seat cushions on the Non Gaming got the upgrade (basically it didn't have a foam layer called "scrim", and they added it)

[@IStratz]

@@Ahnestly Ahhh okay. So the backrest is still thinner on the regular version. Yeah not sure where Jay got that info from then, cause from every review I have seen people say the gaming version is better lol. Hopefully he can put that Herman Miller return policy to use and change it out for the gaming version instead.

[@Ahnestly]

lolll my tinfoil hat theory, which I realized after I recorded, was that he probably heard that BS from a local Herman Miller rep. I believe Herman Miller won't let their gaming chairs be sold by local stores, which means the stores have all the incentive in the world to sell you a non-gaming one.

[@IStratz]

@@Ahnestly Yeah they didn't have any gaming versions of their chairs at the store on display in Austin, Texas. That would make sense. Can't trust anyone nowadays it's wild

[@Adam4]

If we're talking nerdy differences between the Embodys then: - Gaming Embodys obviously have a design on the sync fabric for the backrest that makes it not flat. - Gaming Embodys have an extra strip of foam that runs down the center of the backrest, this strip is about 15cm wide. - Gaming Embodys have a layer of "copper-infused cooling foam" under the sync fabric on the seat. Also worth noting that sometime in 2021 Herman Miller addressed an issue where this foam did not extend far enough to cover the area of the seat that can be extended, so taller folks who pulled the seat out would feel there was no foam at the edge of the seat. It's unclear when the cutoff date for this is, but it's sometime in 2021. - Regular Embodys made after ~Feb 2021 instead have a layer of scrim foam under the seat to give them a similar level of cushion as the gaming variant. Prior to this date the sync fabric interfaced directly with the pixel structure on the non-gaming. Everything else outside of trivial things like colors is pretty much hearsay and hasn't been demonstrated by stripping a chair down.

every company has their own short comings, no company is perfect wouldn't you agree? i've tried the freedom chair and i don't like how it pushes your head/neck forward when you are leaning back, its a personal pref, but i don't like it at all, also the seat padding seems a little thin to me, but arms are extremely easy to adjust, but nowhere near the flexibility/adjustability as LEAP

[@venom5809]

@@droomagon I don't disagree with you, that's why I said a Leap with a headrest like that and the Gesture 4D arms would be elite. The Freedom padding is definitely thin and I wish it had the solid build quality of my Steelcase, Herman Miller or Haworth chairs but it works. I am sitting on it right now and even though the padding on it is thin it kind of works. I still have a Leap and a Haworth Improve HE from the 90's and those things are tanks, the fabric and padding so much better too. I would kill for a Leap with a Freedom headrest and Gesture 4D arms, full price with no hesitation. I had a love/hate relationship with my Embody and had pure hate for my Haworth Fern. I find the Zody much nicer. If you kind of slouch in the Freedom it kicks the back back more than normal and is kind of comfortable for watching TV. You can't always replicate it but it will do it. I also have a fabric Freedom which I suspect is more comfortable than a leather one, my Fern was leather and I just hated it.
