Herman Miller Embody review
The creator reviews the Herman Miller Embody after using it for a week at his desk setup. He finds the flexible back support uniquely comfortable and appreciates the breathable, suspended spring seat structure. However, he dislikes the clunky armrests that interfere with tucking into desks and mentions that the lumbar region can initially feel stiff and difficult to dial in.
Pros
- Extremely flexible and conforming back support
- Breathable suspended coil spring seat pan design
- Smooth and effortless recline motion with tilt limiter
- Visually stunning and unique modern design
Cons
- Clunky armrests that sit too far forward and lack depth adjustment
- Seat pan components can poke into legs when sitting cross-legged
- Lumbar support can feel stiff and requires tedious fine-tuning
- Backrest can produce subtle creaking noises during movement
