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.

+1 for terrible price. I got two like new Aeron's from Cort for $250/ea.

They want $1500 for an Aeron "on sale?" the supply chain lack of availability is long gone, don't buy into the lies. They are gouging. From a guy whose entire home offfce is 100% HM, they can get bent
Final attempts before the inevitable. Nobody will even dare next year, let em have it.

From a guy who has stores in multiple states.

My First class seat to Pity City arrived today and I'm in love.

I find myself sitting at my desk longer, digging deeper and deeper into SD because of it. And when I stand up I feel better than when I first sat down. Well worth $1500.

It's the LuxeBreeze Tempurpedic Mattress of office chairs.

I got mine yesterday and I'm genuinely shocked at the changes I'm already feeling in my back. I WFH and my lumbar has been absolutely crushed for months, to the point that it's impacting my hobbies and lifestyle. I've only been sitting on this thing for a day and a half, and I'm not exaggerating when I say that my back feels better than it has in 6 months.

Is it placebo? Is it pure coincidence? Who knows. I just know that I can reach down and touch my toes without any pain in my lower back for the first time in months.

Everyone's personal definition of comfort is different. This isn't a chair that you "melt" into and feel ready to fall asleep. I can feel it pushing and prodding me in places that my previous office chair (~$300 chair from an office supply store, actually quite nice) just did not.

This also sounds ridiculous, but this chair just has so much novelty. "Novel" is not typically a word used to describe a chair, but all of the adjustments and supports are really impressively engineered.

I was absolutely a skeptic when I placed my order, and I kept my box in tip-top shape expecting I'd be sending it right back. But here I am on day 2, wondering why I waited so long to try one.

Been eyeing an Aeron or Embody for a long time, just went to check them out in person at the San Jose store. They said the price was the same in store as online, which is contrary to many comments I've seen in deals threads for these chairs, that HM dealers offer better prices. I liked both models though probably the Embody more. I'm not sure I'd spend close to $1500 with tax on one though. Are they any discount furniture stores
in the Bay area that have these models used?

Thanks

I just bought a used, like new condition, from someone who moves out of state and needed to get everything out asap. Offered him $600 and he accepted.
Wow, this chair is super comfortable.
Had a Steelcase gesture and HM classic before.
Which make model or whatever?
