Overpriced - Yes. I bought my Embody on sale directly from Herman Miller for 1k with all the extras. This was in 2016, I get inflation but the new price is beyond inflation. The same chair I purchased in 2016 for $1050 is now $2020.

Over-hyped - I still don't think so. Due to life happening, at a young age I've always had lower back pain. Sitting down in an office chair never helped either. I researched Embody and decided to pull the trigger on it seven years ago. After adjusting I've never felt back pain sitting down, at least not in this chair. I used to work at an office and sat in multiple chairs depending which office/conference room I was visiting and every chair made my back eventually hurt. A lot of these chairs were very expensive as well. Plenty of online reviews comparing chairs, mostly all reviewers agree Embody chair is great.

I work from home now, and the only thing I would like to have on my Embody is a headrest. Luckily "Atlas Headrests" have made a headrest for it. I'm just waiting for mine to eventually ship.

Would I buy an Embody again? Yes. Would I wait for a bigger sale before buying one? Maybe

Herman Miller isn't the only bad guy here when it comes to over inflating cost, Steel Case has done the very same thing. The Haworth Fern does seem like an interesting option.

Would like to know that too? I am interested in the embody
I have this Embody, and I bought it back when it first came out at full price. I 100% recommend this chair, it is the most comfortable thing I have ever sat in. I have back problems, and this chair makes it so I can make it through an entire work day without being in pain.

Have the harmony embody chair in blue color. The fabric isn't removable. If you accidentally stained the fabric, you can use some regular laundry liquid detergent and warm water and gently clean the fabric with a wash cloth. I have had success with this in removing stains and you just let it air dry.

The chair is extremely comfortable once you adjust it to your height and setting/firmness. Don't panic if you get it dirty. It is pretty durable in terms of cleaning it.

Also the chair is rather noisy when you sit on it. I have had the chair for almost five years and it makes weird creaking noises when you really lean on the back spine.

The product is good, CEO is bad. Back in the days you can get almost 50% off by ordering via local dealers.

Is this cheap or is it better to still call up my local dealer?
My local dealer was able to do a regular Embody for $1416 after tax, I ended up buying the Logitech Embody last week during this sale for $1405 after tax.

The biggest difference for me was buying it through Herman Miller myself allowed me to own the warranty whereas if the dealer bought it for me then I'd have to go through them for everything.

Side note, I read through research that returns can be hit or miss with dealers.

As for the purchase itself, I'm 10/10 happy with it.

I've been working from home + spending time gaming since 2020 in my logitech embody chair. Also a bigger guy. The chair still looks and functions like new. Yes it's expensive but I feel like I'm getting what I paid for. Very comfortable too.

Dump the CEO. She's not helping.

I'm sorta with you. I got an Aeron last year for a really good deal and it's kinda just a chair. Which is a real bummer. The mesh isn't soft or forgiving at all. Lumbar "support" is two thin pieces of plastic with a 2mm foam backing. Of the two, neither has vertical adjustment and the horizontal is weird. All in, I'm really disappointed for almost $1500.
I've sat in many aerons over the years and agree with you. I do not feel the same way about my embody that I've had almost 10 years. It's amazing.

Cancelled bonuses for staff this year and told them to stop crying and self-pitying and start thinking about the $26 million they can earn for the company. You couldn't make this stuff up even if you tried.

Oh, and she raked in about $3M in bonus the last fiscal year.
Bonuses weren't cancelled, she was telling them to stop worrying about if they would get them or not. Still came off very poorly but she was implying the company is still $26 million off target and that should be the focus at the moment.

If you ever have the unfortunate experience of spending any time in Grand Rapids, MI where Herman Miller is located you will find that women like the CEO of Herman Miller are the norm, not the exception, some of the worst people I have ever met in my life are from that town.

Waste of money buying the HM logitech Embody Gaming chair. I bought 2 for little more then $620 each brand new from a price mistake which they honored for me. The chair is not worth it even at $620 each. Better off with the HM Sayl which I got used for $125 that looks brand new from a deal on SD at a used furniture store.

I'm sure it's been said, but the CEO took a $4 million bonus while stripping bonuses from the rest of the company in the process and went on a rant in a video call telling them basically to F off and do their jobs when she was called on it.

all the people mentioning the CEO stuff can't afford this chair anyway loll I'm dead
I can probably afford chairs for every bedroom in my house and forget about it, but that has nothing to do with how despicable the CEO's behaviour was, so they get none of my business.
