100% recommend only buying a Herman Miller if you can find one secondhand. It’s a decent chair but I’d never in a million years pay retail price for it.

I bought the Embody last year during their Black Friday Sale, sadly it was the worst chair I ever had. I gave it a solid 4 months of testing but regardless of what I was doing with the settings it never felt comfortable and I got a bad neck and shoulder pain after an hour or two sitting in it.

Sold it for a nice price, made some additional money because those chairs go away like crazy and bought me a Leap from Steelcase.

So keep in mind that even expensive office chairs are not made for everyone
