These guys actually punched through a HM Aeron just for the video intro. Now that was cool! 😎
How did robert just punch through an Aeron mesh lol
Magic..haha. How many times did you rewatch it? I think I did about 10 times -Greg
@@btodtv About the same number of times haha. But now it's more obvious in slow-mo
All those cable management reps.
I bench press cable boxes when no one is in the studio - RG
@btodtv I hope Herman Miller doesn't see this and void the warranty 😂
You just saved me from buying a mesh only chair. I always doubted the concept and the ones I tried didn't sold me on it but I assumed you eventually get used to it. That was before I saw you go through serious practical limitations of mesh seats specifically that will affect me. I have no issues with mesh backrest, but I mesh backrest and cushions seat is the perfect in between.
I love the back mesh idea of contorting to your shoulder blades an all but yeah having rough texture on my bum well hehe
Loved this vid - super helpful and enjoyable to watch. Was going to buy an all mesh for £110 but I thought why not check and saw others priced around £600-£1000 like you said and wondered why. Now I know ! Thanks!
Hi, did you hear of the Eureka Ergonomic Typhon chair? It's all mesh with a gaming style for around 600$. I would love to hear your opinion on it, since there aren't many review out there. To understand from someone who knows about chairs if it's worth the money or not. Thanks
Thankyou for this Video, I was about to buy one online then I thought why not watch A video on mesh office chairs or comparisons. And now I am making an educated purchase. I'm not a big spender on chairs but I would definitely follow your advice before making a purchase.
Dang the cheese-grater effect and the cleaning issues are something I haven't thought about yet, spot on vid!
another one: mesh chairs are prone to electrification. Basically if you wobble too much it will strike you. It puts petting a cat on a brand new level when you can strike your loved ones with electricity all day long :(
I love your desk setup
What do you guys think of the autonomous ergochair pro plus?
That foam support at the front of the seat had me returning 2 different chairs. I wanted more air circulation in the seat but this seems to be too much of a niche engineering problem to be affordable. Thanks for clarifying the issues!
What s the name of that thing on your desk that shows weather and such?
Hey guys any tips for a more affordable type of chair? I had a cheap $100 mesh chair which was comfortable but poor build quality the plastic snapped on the backrest after a few months.
I just spend $250 2 days ago to try out an Andaseat gaming chair (first gaming chair) and am not a fan of the racer type chair tbh I think you're paying for style even though its great material and build quality, not the most comfortable, so I'm thinking of sending it back and going with something better for around the same price if possible..
My question is, if you have to pay ALOT for a good mesh chair, gaming chairs are not it either. Is there anything with value for money, like other types of office chairs?
Thanks to anyone in advance!
What about a fabric seat and mesh back like the MotionGray/Autonomous?
Has anyone tried the Hinomi H1 v3 classic? Looks like it has what I want but can’t find any reviews on it.
Perhaps im weird but i bought a hyken from staples pre covid time and ive had it ever since the armrests kinda went to shit so i took em off and threw them away and then i slapped a mesh lumbar support on the back of the chair and its been good enough ever since .😅
I’ve found my Mirra 2 very easy to clean. But it collects dust like crazy!
My Steelcase Think V2 has that awful plastic lumbar so I added a pad in between the ribs and the mesh and now it is very comfortable
What about the FlexiSpot OC3B?
How tall is Robert? Im 193cm and I am afraid I am to tall for the embody chair.
Have you guys considered trying the Hinomi H1 Pro? It's been getting advertised to me a lot and I'd be curious to know your thoughts on it
They have a video on it.
At my office job, i often have to deal with people punching me in the back. After taking this problem to my boss and later HR, They purchased me a kevlar inforced back chair. Now my problem is that my head keeps breaking my monitor.
Wear a kevlar helmet?
thanks a bunch!
I totally agree with this video. I purchased a Mesh chair, not sure what the mfg name of the chair i purchased at Staples. It had a Mesh seat, the mesh started to tear around the seams after 3 months!
Wisconsin, eh? I'm out here by LaCrosse! 23 degree low in the fall today LOL
I live in the tropics. I used my mesh office chair in my birthday suit every day. But, how do you clean the sweat and body oil out of the mesh??? Hot water pressure washing. Yep, fill the reservoir with piping hot water and pressure wash it clean. Sun dry in yhe tropical sun in a few minutes. You're welcome.
I have an Aeron in my home office and am starting to regret getting a mesh chair due to it forcing me to sit a certain way all day. I have an Amia and Leap at my office and find them to be more comfortable for long duration sitting. I like the seat of the Amia and the back of the Leap. If only there was a chair that combined the best traits of both chairs...
this is BTOD they have created a hybrid of those chairs. Just look at their site. Sad thing is, they do not ship to asia
Name of the keyboard at 2:30 🙏🏽
I would have loved to see more about the top crossbar, not only about left and right frames, especially for people like me who would call Robert "small".
I got a Branch chair and it came defective. They charged me to return it. The seat also felt cheap- cushion hit the base right away. Never getting anything from Branch
This is a nice reminder to always check return policies. Hope you find a chair you like a lot better! - RG
trust me loose mesh hurt thigh really bad.

I have a mesh chair from wayfair that is at least 10 years old at this point. Heavy daily use and still sits like its new. I don't think I've used a better chair ever.
got it i dont buy the "new gamng" chair ;D Thanks for ur WORK!
I honestly don't see any upsides to having any mesh on a seat for the consumer. I'm convinced this is a trend that's being forced by corporations because it's far cheaper and easier to manufacture a plastic web than a fabric seat, and they can market them as futuristic to keep prices high and increase margins.
If you want a great and comfortable chair you should be looking for 24-hour certified chairs and not office chairs. These are chairs designed to be sat in for up to 24 hours for long operations shifts, and come with a certification from doctors. A good chair should enable you to sit in multiple different positions as this encourages blood flow, and that's why when you start looking at these kinds of seats you'll immediately notice that none of them use Mesh as it's far too restrictive.
I bought a mesh seat falling for the marketing at first, but instantly returned it as it was inferior in every meaningful way compared to the fabric seat I already owned which cost half as much. As this video highlights they're more inconvenient in practically every way.
Don't fall for this trend.
Right, it’s just not practical sitting in the same position for 8 hours a day without the ability to adjust seat depth and sit cross legged. The mesh is just too firm after a long period of time. I prefer padded cushion seats. As for being inferior I would disagree as there are mesh chairs like the Aeron that can last a long time vs leather cushion seats that goes flat after several months of uses.
I will consider trying those 24 hour seats if I have the budget for it.
Let's just appreciate the fact he really punched through the mesh and not just edited the thumbnail.
Robb is STRONG -Greg
Been sitting on an Aeron for well over 12 years.... No one likes it in my office..... everyone hates them...
These aren't for everyone, but all that matters is that it's perfect for me.
Low end mesh chairs can definitely put one off from ever buying a high end mesh chair, but the difference is honestly night and day.
I hated mesh chairs before I got the Aeron, and was I strongly considering the Embody or Leap v2.
But the Aeron is awesome, and it's helped improve my productivity immensely.
You might still like the Leap :) Good to see you back in the comment section! -Greg
@btodtv Haha, maybe I can get that as a secondary chair for my office when I'm console gaming, perhaps?
If a chair starts pulling on my hair, I'm not just gonna punch it. That mf is going out of the window.
Thank you for this informative video.
dont punch through the mesh it will damage the chair
Wouldn't use a mesh chair even if I got it for free tbh.
They definitely aren't for everyone! Thanks for watching - RG
Omg
didnt they already make this video? running out of ideas?
Thanks for watching all of our content. I wish more of our audience went as deep into our library as you!
Yes, we have created a similar video. But as you can imagine, things were missed in the last one, so we added quite a bit more information to the new video.
Additionally, we talk about products on our channel and new products come out all the time. This means that something may have changed in the category or there are better solutions to problems that may have existed before.
Either way, when we make a similar video, we always bring more value than the previous one.
-Greg
@@btodtv its cool.I got really into chairs when looking for one and your channel was the best out there. Watched a lot of your stuff, but gotta say losing interest a little now. Still keep it up and great content!
This is like a bad infomercial for Steelcase!
Weird take, but I'll just assume you view most things in life in a negative way like this. That is unfortunate, but understandable in the world we currently live in. I'll help though...
This was a GREAT video that brings to light things that most don't consider when choosing what type of chair they want.
If anything, this is an informational video that the title would suggest it's in favor of all non-mesh office chairs. Yet Robert states one of his favorite chairs is a mesh office chair within the first 15 seconds...
-Greg
Doesn't Steelcase literally make a mesh chair?
