On the higher end, HM and Steelcase look pretty good honestly. Chairs like the Karman and Embody, or Sayl look nice in a home office because they aren't a boring black executive looking chair. They are expensive though, so other options like Branch, Haworth, and Human Scale may be worth looking into

No. Few ergonomic chairs suits people at 6'3 and above. Steelcase karman is pure marketing shit and still is sold

Yup, lots of great options over r/OfficeChairs/. I personally use an Aeron but there are tons of excellent options at all price points that will fit this space. The Haworth Fern or a Steelcase Gesture or Karman would fit right in. This is definitely its own rabbit hole :D

Honestly. I wouldn't buy a chair if it's claiming to be a "gaming" chair. Get a good quality brand chair, I personally have a steelcase karman. Best chair I've had so far. At work we have the "lower price" chairs from Steelcase, these are also good for a 8h work day. I have also heard good stuff abo

To be completely honest, I'm not sure you even need a chair like an Embody. The Gesture is really comfortable and just as ergonomic. If you find that it's very comfortable, then keep using it. Don't feel pressured to get sucked into spending money on such an expensive chair. :) However, it is true t

I think your best bet is the BTOD Lamia. I have tried the steelcase leap v2, steelcase gesture, herman miller embody, steelcase karman and even the liber nova omni chair. So far the herman miller embody seat is hands down the best seat that doesn't make my butt sore but I'd put the liber novo 2nd pl

Steelcase Amia is the fattest seat cushion. The Karman series is innately stuffer due to not being foam

I had the same experience. I bought Colamy Atlas following all these YouTubers, Ahnestly and BToDs advice, it was terrible. 2 months in, every time I sit in the chair for more than 2 hours the seat completely bottoms out and hurts my ass. I could feel the ridges and screws of the seat pan. Decided t

Seconding Steelcase. Close in quality (both ergo and literal make/materials) to Herman Miller with a slightly less offensive price point. I sit cross-legged in mine regularly. If you buy directly from them, it ships fully assembled as well so no fucking around with putting a chair together. I have a

i’ve spent time in both the Cosm and Karman, and for long sitting hours, the Cosm’s suspension back is genuinely something else—it adapts to your movements in a way the Karman doesn’t quite match. that extra $230 feels worth it for the longevity and the comfort if you're in it all day. the Karman is
