Herman Miller Embody, 1.5 years later - HAPPY back? (Tips + updated opinion)

[@comfytechquest]

If you own an Embody, how does your experience compare to mine? And if you don't own an Embody, do you plan to get one?

[@yenjun0204]

I had planned to get one, but after learning that their US CEO doesn't want to share bonuses with employees while the CEO got more than $1M year-bonuses, I turned to Fern instead.

[@comfytechquest]

@@yenjun0204 thanks for sharing! Yes I read about that. If I were to buy a chair today, I would certainly consider a Haworth Fern (maybe a future video?! :-)).

[@SK-GT]

@@yenjun0204 Are you happy with the fern? Did you get the additional lumbar support? Was it worth the cost overall?

[@ddp7058]

Got my one today so far so good. I will probably get the head rest.

[@yenjun0204]

@@SK-GT I don’t get the Fern yet. I plan to order it when I'm back in the US this summer. I will get the one with a lumbar support, but I'm still considering the headset. Although most KZbinrs didn't suggest buying the headset and no retailer store within an hour's drive in my area, I am struggling to decide whether to buy the headset or not.

[@BuckstarrZ]

The armrests are VERY easy to move when pulling them up slightly while sitting in the chair. The button does nothing for their horizontal movement, but just slightly lifting them disengages the "teeth" inside, bit like pushing on the clutch of a car so you can move the stick.

[@comfytechquest]

[@varunsharmadps]

@@comfytechquest Yeah pretty much. You can also grab the bottom of the armrests (the part that the cushions don't cover) to move them slightly up before moving!

[@nazariolatorre4351]

six months ago I bought an Embody Logitech, the backrest makes absolutely no noise, the coccyx area is very comfortable, and I bought the Atlas headrest which is perfect, the only flaw it has is that it is decidedly noisy. but this way the chair is truly perfect. Perhaps the only negative thing is a little fatigue in the lower thighs.

[@comfytechquest]

Great to hear you are enjoying the Embody Logitech + Atlas Headrest combo, thanks for stopping by :)

[@uwhat1]

I have owned one for eight years looks almost new. I had a lot of replacement arms (button issue) but they provided new ones and fitted them at home. They are now giving me a new chair after eight years because of the arm button issue which is immense. Worth every single penny. It was purchased to help cure my sciatica and that's exactly what it did. I have tried every chair on the market in this range never found a better one.

[@dubsessed9790]

Wow, they come out and replace the parts for you too? Happy to hear I'll be well covered for the 12 years!

[@e.johannes7250]

Hello, I also have sciatica and I don't know which chair to buy. How has your sciatica gone with the embody? How tall are you?

[@Ed-ch4wq]

The embody is one of the best Chair I have sat on. I also bought mine used (like - new) for a fairly good price a couple months back. My back pain is not really noticeable anymore, my thighs are feeling great from the balanced foam, and the great thing is the ability to stretch backwards on both shoulders. My chair squeaks quite a bit, but I have gotten used to it. The only thumbs down I would give is to the armrest as I wish there is more flexibility in the movement.

[@comfytechquest]

Thanks for stopping by, Ed! Indeed, I've been enjoying the flexible backrest a lot lately, and really stretching my shoulders out. Totally agree on the armrest comment - lack of forward/back adjustment is a notable miss IMO.

[@JoseLuRu]

Thank for your honest review I'm planning to get one soon and this was really helpful Keep it up!

[@comfytechquest]

No worries at all, thanks for stopping by and leaving a comment!

[@Cataracta]

I have mine for 2 years and enjoy almost every day on it.. no sitting fatigue even after 8 or 9hrs of work. You still have to get every hour once do stretches and get back. I like that the chair is so close to my spine, feels natural. I was worried about no headrest as well.. but i gave it a shoot without one and its working for me.. Headrest arent good to me since i have a neck injury that limits me to push all the way back with my neck. I just orderd one for my brother since its 25% off from the hermann miller site. i can highly recommend the chair!

[@mikescott4008]

Would be great to find a showroom to sit in these chairs. Looking at the embody gaming chair, which I see is about £1100 atm.

[@skyboy884]

Great video! Also: while sitting in the chair lift THE ARMREST (not the button) up. Do it with either single or both hands, then move it in or out

[@me-kl9tg]

Thanks for the review! So, you bought one of these used and paid a lot less than retail. Knowing what you know now, would you say the Embody is worth paying full retail price? You'd be paying between £1200 to £1500 depending the model and where you get it from. You'd probably also need to add an additional £150 for the Atlas head rest.

[@BoostKingEVO10]

I have been watching reviews on chairs for the past two weeks. I knew I wanted an embody but I was not about to spend 1600 dollars on it or even 1300 on sale. so, I ultimately decided to go with the Haworth Zody.... UNTIL I asked my Facebook friends what they would recommend. through that, I had learned one of my college friends works for a Herman Miller dealer and he is giving me an unbelievable deal on a new Embody. I cannot wait for it to come in even though I have to wait 6 weeks. I already put my order in for the headrest so Iam hoping they come in at around the same time.

[@jeremiahwilkin]

So how is it?

[@jcortes1791]

Yes! How is it?!

[@GbproofaccountTheMaster]

How do you like the embody ?

[@BoostKingEVO10]

Sorry to get back so late to everyone! So I went to go check it out before 100% committing. As soon as I sat in it I fell in love. It’s really the best chair I’ve ever sat in. And comfortable for longer periods of time. Lumbar is perfect in my opinion. Not too extreme. I highly recommend it if you are looking to invest. However other “cheaper” high end chairs might be just as comfortable but I wouldn’t know because this was the only chair I looked at in person.

[@GbproofaccountTheMaster]

@@BoostKingEVO10 thanks for the update ! How tall are you? :)

[@1570CHRIS]

Hi, while sitting in the chair you need to slightly lift the two poles of the armrest while moving them in or out.

[@comfytechquest]

Thanks Chris! Your mention of the word "pole" made me grab the arm rest support struts themselves instead of the pad on top, which does the job quite nicely. Sound/jank is quite minimal when using this approach. Cheers :)

[@comfytechquest]

[@foshizzlefy]

I'm not sure if this review is ment sarcastically, because at almost every category you mention you were not happy with the chair and had to go out of your way by ordering after market adjustments. For a chair that is above 1500$ (!) this should not be necessary..

[@comfytechquest]

Yours is a fair critique! A couple of points to consider: - I’ve actually stopped using the armrest cushions nowadays so I consider that a “happy” category without aftermarket adjustments. - Newer Embody chairs have extra seat pan foam vs. my version. This setup is the most comfortable I have been in a chair so far, despite the shortcomings I have flagged. If I ever find a chair that gives me better bang for buck I will let this channel know :)

[@Tjenaretjenaremannen]

@@comfytechquest I've only tested those features in the store, haven't owned a Aeron or other HM chair with that function. But I see it viable when wanting to focus more or gaming, just to fast come to a forward tilt position. Now I just use the backfit adjustment but its a knob and takes some time doing it every time, so would have been practical with a forward tilt adjustment imo :)

[@DrBelser12]

How do you add foam to a chair? Did you have to cut into the cloth?

[@comfytechquest]

No, the material on the seat pan unhooks so you can slide foam underneath. There’s a video on how to do it on my channel.

[@bypyhgyk]

Haha.. me too--- i got ergohuman elite 2 used 1 year old. Did think i making an upgrade in comfort. My ass is hurting more and more if i sit on these mesh chair. So i did put 5cm foam pad from old bed memory foam topper. And then another 5cm. Now with 10cm foam- which compress till 1cm under load- i can use chair somehow ok. My old no name char was more comfortable on seat pad. At least my chair had head-rest and did cost only 150gbp :))

[@ElvenSpellmaker]

My previous company had a couple of Aerons I never found them comfortable at all. I'm very tempted to go for the Herman Miller x Logitech Embody but I'm hesitant about whether I'll like it or not.

[@whatisiswhatable]

I’m with ya and I find it hard to justify the price

[@comfytechquest]

I’d say the Aeron and Embody have a very different feel given that the former is a mesh seat. Perhaps HM offer a returns period in your region, so you can try the Embody?

[@robin_s13]

For you or anyone else who can compare: How does this chair compare to your previous SecretLab? I thought I would enjoy the SL Titan 2022 but the bottom cushion is very uncomfortable to me. No back pain in it though. Would you recommend this chair (HM Embody) if you had the money? Is it that much more comfortable than the SL?

[@bfh7777]

sl titan gives me back pain ive had it for a year now, i currently ordered a herman miller embody logitech edition at the 25% sale there is ongoing right now and hope that will be a better investment further down the line. Can update my comment once it arrives if youre interested to know my comparison between both after ive tried it in person.

[@comfytechquest]

The Embody seat pan is certainly more comfy than the SL Titan (at least, the 2020 version that I owned). When comparing the 2020 SL Titan and HM Embody, the only losses with the Embody in my mind are that a.) you don’t get a full recline and b.) no headrest (will be fixed soon if you are prepared to buy a third party one). Important to keep in mind that the Embody is IMO unforgiving when it comes to posture - it demands that you sit up correctly (e.g., your lower back needs to be pushed up against the back of the chair), but I don’t consider that a downside.

[@jjoohhhnn]

Haworth makes a chair very similar to the embody called the Fern, it's the tied/the top of most office chair reviewers lists like Btod TV and Ahnestly. It's also quieter than the Embody.

[@comfytechquest]

[@whatisiswhatable]

I tried the chair at a shop and found it super underwhelming. I wonder if it’s one of those things that you realize is beneficial over time? It’s hard for me to separate the hype from the genuine review.

[@comfytechquest]

I assure you that this video is a genuine review, having sat in the chair for 4k hours at the time of recording. As noted in the video, I do not get that "ahhh" feeling when initially sitting in the chair, but I have found it comfortable on my spine after extended usage, and I'm still using it 2 years after purchasing it. Hope that helps.

[@roboticunclephil]

so its on sale right now 25% off from HM at least in the US. i could get one for a similar price, about $850ish USD. but i read that the warranty does not transfer. i'm worried enough about this to consider spending the extra $500. i hope to get at least a decade or two of use out of htis, instead of spending $200 every other year on a chair that just breaks down & just makes my back even worse.

I literally just ordered mine about an hr ago for this very reason. I saw the 25% off sale ends today so had to jump on it.

I think modifying a chair after you buy it because it's not doing something correct is bad. That's why it's concerning for the embody that there's areas you have to upgrade or you'll be uncomfortable.. Doesn't sound good at all for the price

[@comfytechquest]

Thanks for your elaborate video. I agree with everything you've said here even though I haven't owned my Embody for that long yet. But after a couple of days and researching adjustments, my back couldn't thank me more! Edit: I also added the high density foam under and its a game changer for chairs before March 2021!

[@comfytechquest]

This is great to know! What adjustments were key to you having a happier back?

[@MatchaMan]

@@comfytechquest I had to turn the back tilt all the way loose, sit with my butt closest to the back so it felt like a lumbar touching, then slowly turn the back tilt toward my back whilst sitting up as straight as possible. Once the top of the back touched my back lightly, that’d be enough and I can sit up and lean back comfortably now. And the foam helped my tailbone not be in mid air so that pain was gone. Also I felt I got used to it and the chair was broken in. Lastly, your feet have to be flush on the ground

I think it's a great chair and I'm super happy to have it, but I'm not so sure i would have felt the same had I actually had to pay $1600 (or 2k) for it. If you have that kind of money to splurge then for sure go for it, but don't break the bank for it because I'm guessing a chair half the price would likely come close to the comfort of the embody gaming. As for no headrest, i for sure think it needs one. My atlas headrest is coming tomorrow! Unfortunately I had to pay the $200 for that one though 😉
