After adjusting properly it has eliminated my issue of sometimes leaning forward.

Rotate clockwise all the way forward, lean back, look forward and relax neck. Rotate counter clockwise until eye meets center of screen. --- Where were these instructions years ago!?
I know it’s hip to crack jokes about the price, but I’ve been using an Embody for 6.5 years now and it’s still as comfortable as day one. I’ve gone through so many cheap office chairs that lose cushion over time or down right just falls apart. My butt starts to hurt when sitting on those for hours a day. You have to look at these kind of chairs as long term investments not only financially, but for your spine, comfort and posture.
Exactly, people can't stomach the up front cost and fail to see how much more they will spend in the long run for the same piece of office equipment.

I'm 6 foot 5 inches. MONEY DOESN'T MATTER WHEN YOUR THIS TALL LOL. Chairs are like Torture Racks for my tall skinny body, I mean we drop a couple 1000 dollars on a bed, and most of us spend MORE TIME IN OUR OFFICE/GAMING CHAIRS, so why not dump 2k on it?
@@machomamao in the long run you just pay over 1000 dollars for a overpriced uncomfortable chair while you could get a cheaper one for 500 bucks wich is more comfortable lol (with also 10 years waranty)
While this is a premium product, if you compare it directly with your PC price, keep in mind that a good chair in this price range should suit you in the ideal case for the rest of your life. That can't be said about a PC even if you would upgrade only every 10 years.
I literally just got my LG Embody chair. watching this video to properly set it up. Im coming from a AKracing gaming chair and of coarse no comparison. My bucket seat gaming chair days are gone. I love this thing!!
@senorpoodles1755 I'm really happy with it. Once you get the back support set up how you want it, it's extremely comfortable. The last two "gaming" chairs I've had have fallen to bits, the corsair one quite literally. I've had this over a year used it daily and it looks like it is brand new.
First of all, I was very happy with how fast this item was delivered. ruclips.net/user/postUgkxYR69rUVDfF56JHQRldV2uJeXaPA9LTZW It came a day before the listed delivery date, which was super great! I was able to assemble it myself with no difficult and I am not an engineer or a put-it-together expert. The chair is super comfortable, I play video games for roughly 3-4 hours at a time and it does not make my back hurt or neck hurt. The Reclining function actually surprised me because it goes very low, you could fall asleep on it ( and in fact i have while laying on it with a foot rest for my legs). The red is a bold choice and I usually stay away but I love how the red and black contrast looks on this type of material. The wheels on this chair are very very quiet, I have wood vinyl in my apartment and there is absolutely no noise. OVERALL, I WOULD RECOMMEND or BUY IT AGAIN !
My spine is bent because of my previous chairs. I had to go to the chiropractor for a year to fix it because it caused my lung to get caught in my ribs. Now I have bought an Embody and hope that it was worth the investment :)
Anyone here complaining about the price should consider that the market for this chair is for people who have jobs and respect their body. In other words, not gamers.

How come my seat depth adjustment is so difficult and nothing like shown in the video? I lift my legs and lift up the handles on the sides and try to slide forward or backward but it doesn’t move. I have to REALLY lift up hard then slide the seat VERY hard too to make it move.

Why? Do you lean back and ruin your posture when you're gaming? If you are, you don't care about your health and will probably be sitting on a Walmart pleather chair worth 99.99.
@@OptionalOG I do both, sit up when I play FPS and lean back when playing MMO's. I found it that people tend to sometimes overthink ergonomic positions outside of an office. It IS important to have a good posture and adjust your chair into a good height and all that. But it is just as important that you find a position that is comfortable and relaxing for you aswell. The best thing to do is to get up every now and then, and I even stand up the whole day sometimes at work. I don't really find that a cheapo plastic chair would really do me any good unless it's one without a backrest so you're forced to sit without support, but who wanna game like that? :P

lol really odd reading the comments from people who cant afford the chair, trying to disparage it. I can afford it and I have it, I have to say its the most comfortable chair I've ever sat in.
A few days ago I was looking at my 7900XTX GPU and was thinking to myself. I've just bought a chair worth more than a high end GPU lol. I could've gone AM5 with a 7950X but chose to invest in a good chair instead. I'm excited to see how premium it is compared to the Walmart grade chair I'm in now.
The chair will almost undoubtedly outlast the GPU, and you can upgrade GPU. Your health is incredibly important - I think you made the right decision and allocated your funds appropriately.
People who criticise the chair's price completely misunderstand the product. I've bought gaming chairs with lumbar pillows and after Working from Home for years and gaming extensively over the weekends, my back posture is bad. Do not underestimate how important good back posture is, this chair is worth every penny. Otherwise you'll end up paying out for physiotherapy to fix your back that badly designed chairs cause (unless you're able to not be sat down for extended periods)
I have had my Le almost 2yrs now and it’s just as comfortable as the 1st day. I sit in the chair for over 8hrs per day as I work from home full-time and so does my wife. My company bought this chair for me and I bought my wife a gaming Sayl. We both work from home full-time and we love our chairs. This is the best investment I’ve ever made. 12yr warranty that covers everything is well worth the price tag. I used a Series 1 and my tailbone hurt after just 1hr of sitting whereas I constantly forget to get up in my chair to relax. Sometime I forget about taking my 15 min break because I’m so comfy all the time. I also love rocking back and forth while in the chair because it’s soothing to me. I love this chair and the only thing I would change is the colorway because I got the cyan backrest whereas if I had another chance I would probably get the black on white colorway.
LOL, the Embody has been around for ages as a professional office chair. Hilarious how they slap the word "Gamer" in front of it and try to market it to kids who have no way to afford something of that quality. These gamer kids are seriously not going to understand how big of a quality difference is with Herman Miller and Steelcase products are compared to their silly race bucket chairs.
I'm 22yo web developer who also loves to game from time to time, I also know how great of a product Herman Miller chairs are. So if I can have a chair optimized for both everyday tasks *and* gaming, that's just perfect to me. I've seen the little differences made to the gaming embody to feel better while playing, where the regular embody could feel awkward in game due to the horizontal curve. It's hard to explain but that's mostly about feeling comfortable while playing too. Quite a unique chair in that regard.
@@freezekiller Yeah and how many of them are Shroud, Ninja, Disrespect, etc? Like 0.00000000000000000000000001%? Yeah, forget getting an education and a job or starting your own business, just be a streamer/gamer!
why is there no headrest? and why does it cost so much? it can't be the material or the way this is assembled. it just can't and everyone knows. so why???
It is the materials and the way this is assembled, you will not see any fakes of this below $1,000 because this design is so complex that not even chinese companies get knock it off, the Aeron is another herman miller chair that costs over $1,000 there are no fake aerons.
"Cooling Foam" they say. For all we know, that's just a Grade 1 Fabric slapped in the Embody, paired with the "Logitech" branding to make it sound awesome lol

@@irbvek Then those kids and teens can stick with goodwill or your nearest office store chairs. Hell, as a kid, going from a dining room chair to a used falling apart cheap office chair was amazing growing up. As I became an adult I can afford such an office chair.

I know it's a smaller crowd but there is a market for 20-30+ year old gamers like myself that also works from home or just want a nice chair that also is "gaming" focused.

I was very hyped on this before the launch. This price is way to high for the group of people you trying to target. It costs even more than the classic Hermin Miller chairs. In my opinion this is a failure.
Right?! I would’ve thought it would be on the cheaper end of Herman miller chairs and I also thought I’d be much different then Logitech slapping a logo on the embody chair. They missed a huge opportunity
When the chair is so overpriced that it costs as much as mid-end PC build. YIKES Logitech. As much as it would improve your sitting position, your back would probably break with the amount of money that you have to spend just to get this thing.
This rebranded Logitech model is cheaper than the original Embody. So Logitech is doing you a favor here if you were looking to buy the Embody before anyways. A good chair always costs more than 1k and is absolutely worth it. Be it from HM, Steelcase etc.

I have to REALLY lift up hard then slide the seat VERY hard too to make it move. When I release the handles I also don’t feel a locking mechanism at all, in fact I can move the seat forward WITHOUT lifting the handles... my chair defective? 😟
Thats good!
As a minimalist loner, I only have 1 chair in my small apartment, so I think I gonna by this one to replace it.
NO RGB?
Does Maddie come with the chair ? If so , it's worth the high price .
If she does I am asking for a refund...
*Where is The Headrest !! ???*
Got the Aireon instead and now just have to wait for it to come! Excited! Worth the $1800 price if you spend 10+ hours a day in it
But it got no headrest? That's a must for those 12h sessions grinding in a game :P
Why? Do you lean back and ruin your posture when you're gaming? If you are, you don't care about your health and will probably be sitting on a Walmart pleather chair worth 99.99.
@@OptionalOG I do both, sit up when I play FPS and lean back when playing MMO's. I found it that people tend to sometimes overthink ergonomic positions outside of an office. It IS important to have a good posture and adjust your chair into a good height and all that. But it is just as important that you find a position that is comfortable and relaxing for you aswell. The best thing to do is to get up every now and then, and I even stand up the whole day sometimes at work. I don't really find that a cheapo plastic chair would really do me any good unless it's one without a backrest so you're forced to sit without support, but who wanna game like that? :P

@@monstar5746 I Can tell you that I disagree. I miss a headrest, every single day. I can’t wait for the atlas headrest.
@@lejusticierdunet7262 yep
I preffer the Aeron I own and the mirra 2 I have at office
lol really odd reading the comments from people who cant afford the chair, trying to disparage it. I can afford it and I have it, I have to say its the most comfortable chair I've ever sat in.
So thats the face behind the voice
That's an amazing twitter handle
For 1200$ is better be
A few days ago I was looking at my 7900XTX GPU and was thinking to myself. I've just bought a chair worth more than a high end GPU lol. I could've gone AM5 with a 7950X but chose to invest in a good chair instead. I'm excited to see how premium it is compared to the Walmart grade chair I'm in now.
The chair will almost undoubtedly outlast the GPU, and you can upgrade GPU. Your health is incredibly important - I think you made the right decision and allocated your funds appropriately.
what makes this $1000+?
holyshit man, I didn't think it would be this expensive. That's basically the price for a new computer setup.
People who criticise the chair's price completely misunderstand the product. I've bought gaming chairs with lumbar pillows and after Working from Home for years and gaming extensively over the weekends, my back posture is bad. Do not underestimate how important good back posture is, this chair is worth every penny. Otherwise you'll end up paying out for physiotherapy to fix your back that badly designed chairs cause (unless you're able to not be sat down for extended periods)
Shroud should buy this
I wont lie i have this chair, it feels good but the same time for small people lol
I have had my Le almost 2yrs now and it’s just as comfortable as the 1st day. I sit in the chair for over 8hrs per day as I work from home full-time and so does my wife. My company bought this chair for me and I bought my wife a gaming Sayl. We both work from home full-time and we love our chairs. This is the best investment I’ve ever made. 12yr warranty that covers everything is well worth the price tag. I used a Series 1 and my tailbone hurt after just 1hr of sitting whereas I constantly forget to get up in my chair to relax. Sometime I forget about taking my 15 min break because I’m so comfy all the time. I also love rocking back and forth while in the chair because it’s soothing to me. I love this chair and the only thing I would change is the colorway because I got the cyan backrest whereas if I had another chance I would probably get the black on white colorway.
Why would you change the color? I got the cyan one too :)
This Chair costs more than my whole setup..
LOL, the Embody has been around for ages as a professional office chair. Hilarious how they slap the word "Gamer" in front of it and try to market it to kids who have no way to afford something of that quality. These gamer kids are seriously not going to understand how big of a quality difference is with Herman Miller and Steelcase products are compared to their silly race bucket chairs.
Lol you must be living under a rock. Wake up, its 2020. Gamer make more money for a 4 hours session than what you are making a year. 😂😂😂
Arrogance. “These gamer kids” have minds, please don’t put everyone who games into a stereotypical idiot group.
I'm 22yo web developer who also loves to game from time to time, I also know how great of a product Herman Miller chairs are. So if I can have a chair optimized for both everyday tasks *and* gaming, that's just perfect to me.
I've seen the little differences made to the gaming embody to feel better while playing, where the regular embody could feel awkward in game due to the horizontal curve. It's hard to explain but that's mostly about feeling comfortable while playing too. Quite a unique chair in that regard.
@@freezekiller Yeah and how many of them are Shroud, Ninja, Disrespect, etc? Like 0.00000000000000000000000001%? Yeah, forget getting an education and a job or starting your own business, just be a streamer/gamer!
why is there no headrest? and why does it cost so much? it can't be the material or the way this is assembled. it just can't and everyone knows. so why???
High end office chairs always cost more than 1k. The build quality, adjustability, design and decade-long warranty has its price.
It is the materials and the way this is assembled, you will not see any fakes of this below $1,000 because this design is so complex that not even chinese companies get knock it off, the Aeron is another herman miller chair that costs over $1,000 there are no fake aerons.
I trust her
A gaming chair done the proper way
i really want this compared to the original embody
"Cooling Foam" they say. For all we know, that's just a Grade 1 Fabric slapped in the Embody, paired with the "Logitech" branding to make it sound awesome lol
@666NedFlanders there you go.spoken like a true end user. Im an office furniture installer you idiot. I eat ergononic chairs for breakfast. May the good Lord have pity on you soul you ignorant prick. That's just another way of saying "you honestly don't know what you're talking about" by the way. You just read the effin chair specs review, what are you? A salesperson?
It's only $1500 guys, don't worry.
Gamers cant afford your gaming chair
"gamers"
You mean Kids and teens right? cuz i can. It helps to not waste money on garbage as well. :)
@@iCatCloud majority of gamers are kids and teens.
@@irbvek Then those kids and teens can stick with goodwill or your nearest office store chairs. Hell, as a kid, going from a dining room chair to a used falling apart cheap office chair was amazing growing up. As I became an adult I can afford such an office chair. It is not in anyway the chair your average kid/teen should be investing in. I know it's a smaller crowd but there is a market for 20-30+ year old gamers like myself that also works from home or just want a nice chair that also is "gaming" focused.
I went with this chair instead of a gpu upgrade. I think I made the right choice. Don’t need a 3080 to play csgo lmao
Hilarious I did the same
if this chair costs more than your PC setup, then its not for you
lol yea people keep commenting " cost more than my whole setup" like duh you're obviously not the demographic then
You get quality, that's what matters.
If i got the money.....
Jesus, why do they make something like this so difficult to adjust. The seat extender on this is so difficult to move I had to slam the handles back with a hammer just to get it to move!
anyone else found the cushion really uncomfortable after a while ? dunno if it's just me but get a sore bum after sitting on the chair
I love the extremely high price the most
cant put a price on your only spine that has to last 80 years ;)
@@Troint lmaooo
“Entire body” but not headrest come on...
I was like, what the hell?!
Headrest is not necessary unless you recline
MrDosonhai it’s Herman Miller so you definitely spending a $1K above and no headrest

So beautiful... wait what chair?
No chair but it’s so pricey! But to be fair anyone who can buy a 2080ti or a $1500 gaming monitor or tv cannot complain.
I will buy gaming sofa bed!
haha nice my chair i have comes not up .... so i need a new Table ? Oo
"So, that's everything you need to know about setting up your Embody gaming chair"
Me: Alright! I'll sell my whole gaming rig first to buy this.
Why is it so expensive 😢👊🏼
Sammy and its so freaking good
Because its designed with the philosophy of buy it for life. High quality materials, massively durable, highly ergonomic and back saving.
Compares favourably to buying cheap $100 chairs and disposing of them after a year or two as the seat padding wears out.
Because it’s made in the USA
Just like all you guys I thought my chair is faulty for sure hahaha
Pull the lever harder all the way up to 12 o'clock position. It should be touching the rim of it's housing, it'll move up on it's own, hope this helps
The average person has trouble justifying a computer purchase over 500$. Do you really thin the average person will buy a 1500$ chair?
This chair isn't intended for the average person. It's intended for people who play video games for a living, making a good chair, such as this, a worthy investment.
@@rubensargsyan5634 accept most will not buy this, as most will use chairs from sponsorship as well
Does Maddie come with the chair? 😍
Hermanmiller drip
Armrests should not be adjusted the way she does it.. to adjust armrest You need to pull armrests up so the mechanism will release and move to the sides without cracking noises..
Its also 1500 c;
two company combining to make a thriving chair? Also two company want to get profits from it. So we pay for two companies.
Uhhh, what? The non logitech version of this chair is more expensive.
@@riskmo Wrong comparison.
Jeremy You’re saying we pay extra because two companies collaborated, but we do not.
@@riskmo whatever I don't like G. Never seen any robust product from G company. Kindof selling plastic stuff to children with fancy design. I don't understand why Herman miller cooperate with such a company. HM might ruin their reputation.

@@Niels_f2704 sry didn't see because legs
I was very hyped on this before the launch. This price is way to high for the group of people you trying to target. It costs even more than the classic Hermin Miller chairs. In my opinion this is a failure.
Right?! I would’ve thought it would be on the cheaper end of Herman miller chairs and I also thought I’d be much different then Logitech slapping a logo on the embody chair. They missed a huge opportunity
@@Leo-ph5dk this Logitech version is actually cheaper than the regular Embody.
OMG LOGITECH :(
Hmm what chair is that in the background behind Jon?
Its a Herman Miller Aeron
no head rest
When the chair is so overpriced that it costs as much as mid-end PC build. YIKES Logitech. As much as it would improve your sitting position, your back would probably break with the amount of money that you have to spend just to get this thing.
This rebranded Logitech model is cheaper than the original Embody. So Logitech is doing you a favor here if you were looking to buy the Embody before anyways. A good chair always costs more than 1k and is absolutely worth it. Be it from HM, Steelcase etc.
Just get a secret lab
LOLOL
