Some thoughts on the Steelcase Series 1 vs. the Steelcase Leap v2: Been using the Series 1 since September of last year brand new from Steelcase direct. Picked up the Leap last week locally for $300 barely used after seeing them on Craigslist. I use them both everyday, the Leap now is the main WFH chair for my workday, the Series 1 replaced a crappy Ikea chair at a secondary desk but was my main chair before. The Series 1 feels like a "baby Leap" where the general ergonomics feel the same (back support, the positioning of the arm wrests, back tilts separate from the seat, etc). The main difference is the Leap is way more customizable:
I still like the Series 1 a lot actually, the additional features of the Leap definitely make it "nicer" to use but I don't think it's overall that much more comfortable, at least comparing the list prices, definitely not 2.5x more comfortable. Maybe I would have a different story if I was regularly in long conference calls where I needed to be planted in my seat for multiple hours at a time, I feel like this micro-adjustments would potentially matter more.

Crandall Office is running a 30% off their Steelcase authorized return chairs with code "THIRTY". I don't think it's that great of a deal on Leap V2s since you can get them cheaper reconstructed, but you can get a Gesture w/o headrest for under $800 with the discount which is what I picked up.

Duck and Cover posted:All these terrible broken people saying that the Embody is better that the Gesture. Lol. Freaks I say! FWIW, I've been enjoying my Gesture upgrading from an older, and semi broken, Leap v2. I haven't had the opportunity to try out the Embody though.
