Ergohuman GEN2 is The Best Mesh Chair I Have EVER Used...

[@anatoliyglushenko1061]

I'm 6.3 and was looking for a chair that would fit me for about a year. Was on the edge about this chair for last month and a half. The next day this review came out I ordered it and I was not disappointed. Thank you guys for such a timely review!

[@Mildly_Irreverant]

You rate highly as a tall guy? I am 6ft 3” also and have struggled to find reasonably priced chairs with the seat depth and height I need

[@dean4696]

@@Mildly_Irreverant yes, I've had a gen 1 leather in my home office for a few years and recently got a gen 2 at work. Frankly the gen 2 is an improvement, but I wouldnt let this video think that the gen 1 is that bad. It might just be second best out of a handful of chairs you would even want to consider. I am 6'2 and change with the shoulder and hip width of people that are usually a few inches taller. you can adjust the headrest, seat depth, and most importantly, the SHOULDERS to a position that doesnt feel like your chair was designed for children. side note, the gen 2 comes in leather yet, so if that is important to you, the gen 1 is still like the ONLY good ergo chair in leather. most of the time mesh is the smarter move for most people anyway. especially in an office environment.

Hey, guys! Could you please review the Razer Fujin Pro? It's another take from a gaming company on an ergonomic-style chair, and I would love it if you could give it a look. The warranty offered on it is the biggest problem, but it looks pretty competent as a mesh chair with quite a bit of adjustability, and the price doesn't seem too crazy as well. Please review it soon!

Thanks for the review and looks interesting! Do you think this is a better option than the Herman miller Mirra 2? Thanks !

[@aleck156]

I'm currently using Mirra 2 ... and I pulled the trigger and ordered Ergohuman 2 Elite with fabric seating. I had to cover seating of Mirra 2 with layers of foam/film to prevent the pain it was causing, as if I was sitting on a pipe. My hamstrings were sore after +8 hours a day. Similar with back rest - had to put 3 layers of velour to make it comfortable. For the second reason mentioned I haven't bought Fern - Digital Knit mesh is not available in EU online shop, therefore ... KO. 5'8, 150 lbs lean male, FYI.

[@wilpotocki2453]

Like to see a review of the best chair $300 or less. Most people can't afford $1,000+ for a chair. I'm looking for comfortable chair that especially has a comfortable seat. So many of them are too hard. And so many have problems with quality control including bolt holes lining up when putting it together and material construction issues with long term quality.

[@markkeohane9850]

I'm in the UK and in the market. Considering this and the Hinomi H1. The trouble is, if I want the Ergohuman I have to scour lots of companies' sites. The headrest and footrest have to be selected as options and not everyone offers them. It's not clear how long delivery is; one company offers 'Stock or three weeks' for black, but 12 weeks (!) for any other colour. Some have longer delivery times for the footrest option. With Hinomi, I go to one site - Hinomi's - and everything is in stock for dispatch in three days. And, even before tax, which I won't have to pay as I have my own business, the Hinomi is about £260 cheaper. Kind of helps with the decision.

[@PAUS3D-jo9wg]

Might be late but ergohuman do have a UK store Comfort Seating UK and you can get the gaming ultra and it's essentially the same but comes with the headrest footrest and has a black finish instead of the shiny chrome

[@markkeohane9850]

@@PAUS3D-jo9wg Thanks for taking the time but yes, too late. I have the Hinomi and I'm very happy with it. I think I found that site and it may be that's where I saw the delivery time of 12 weeks. I can't recall exactly now. Anyway, deal done.

[@invisiblekid99]

I'm looking for a office chair that will double as a "chill out" chair as I will be using this quite often to listen to music. This seems to be a good fit. Bit late to the party but anyone got any other options? UK doesn't get a lot of the options on here sadly, but we do get this one.

[@shteud01]

Look at this chair for few years, but gen 1 was not very good for tall and heavy people. I'm about 6,3" and 265 pounds. How do you thinks Gen2 will be fine to feet long body? And do mesh is capable to take such weight for long time? Will it be comfortable for tall man?

[@gorgandaniel8529]

I've been using it for a while now and my legs are going numb. I tried different configurations using the "best practices" but did not help. I believe I am the problem (even tho I'm constantly exercising at the gym) since my job requires sitting all the time (although I'm taking breaks regularly where I walk). Or I simply don't like the mesh sitting. Any suggestion is welcomed 🙏 LE: check comments for later update

[@denisguran2573]

I do have the same issue and bought this chair few days ago, I thought I am the only one having this sensation. I can feel that the circulation is kinda cut off even after 10 minutes of sitting, and I've tried absolutely every setup with this chair, adjusted the lumbar support, seat depth, height to the smallest setting and it made no difference. I assume it's an issue with the sitting design and how the weight is spread across the surface. Btw, I am 185cm tall, 83kg. If anyone had this problem and managed to solve it, please let us know how :D For now the only option would be to return it...

[@PappLacc]

Will the GEN2 have a leather seat version too like the GEN1? It would be a instant buy for me.

[@btodtv]

Yes, that is their ultimate goal. With the seat frame design change, they have some more work to do yet. I agree, the leather might be nice option for those who don't want to sit on mesh. That was me with the GEN1, but I feel like they have done such a good job here with the new seat design, I no longer require the leather seat to be comfortable. If you've followed the channel for a while, you know I don't like mesh seats, so this is incredible for me personally. I was told the leather seat wasn't the big focus, since 9 out of every 10 Ergohuman are sold as the all mesh version. -Greg

[@PappLacc]

@@btodtvThank you very much Greg! The only reason i need the leather seat version is because i like to sit cross-legged sometimes, and that rules out the mesh seats sadly.

Happily I splurged on a German chair that's even much better looking, a fully loaded interstuhl champ. I bought this after watching your video and realizing that the famed mesh isn't it for me!
