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.

At least this deal offers a relatively hassle-free 30-day return policy straight from the manufacturer, and the 12-year warranty should be irrefutable. If the Embody doesn't change my life, I'll send it back and try the Gesture/Fern next time.

I picked up a fully loaded Haworth Fern for a similar price and it has been amazing. Check it out if you're in the market for a high end chair.
Very peculiar tact the CEO had to motivate the company. Someone at that level should know better. CEO compensation is an issue at most companies, but in the end of the day, very few can do a good job. Hopefully this one is held accountable. Who knows, maybe the board is strangely aligned with her messaging.
On another note, isn't getting a bonus based on performance? To me, a company that offers bonuses to staff when it is significantly off financial targets is akin to a participation trophy. It's generous if they do, but the company should have the right to pull them back.
I just ordered a second for my wife and she's using my old Office Depot work pro 9000. It's only one year older than my embody and is nowhere holding up as well. That was a 300 ish dollar chair.
Don't care for all this CEO BS, go support steel case or whatever you want.

Oh, and she raked in about $3M in bonus the last fiscal year.
I've gone so far as forcing myself into opening new browser windows via implementing referral link blockers just to ensure SD gets nothing.

And the chair is 75 pounds! Solid as a rock.
