how to adjust embody gaming chair

You can use the tilt limiter as an “upright/recline switch”, but the lever is hard to reach, and then the backrest becomes a bit too stiff in the upright position. The reclined position is not very reclined. Open hip angle in the reclined position: Pass. Much better than the Aeron.

TO INCREASE TENSION: Turn knob clockwise. TO DECREASE TENSION: Turn knob counterclockwise. TO ENGAGE: Recline and move tab up to define the limit of recline. TO RAISE ARMS: Grasp arms while pressing button on the underside of each armpad and pull up to desired position.

The Embody has a thin high back design while the Aeron has a wide back that is more of a mid-back height. Each chair has soft arms but the Embody’s arm adjustments are better suited for a wider range of people while the Aeron arm adjustments are better suited for typing and tasking.

It took me a week of sitting in the chair before I realized I needed to change the back support a bit when sitting straight up, rather than a “one setting fits all” kind of thing. If you buy this chair, spend a minimum of two weeks with it and mess around with it before making up your mind.

“The Embody is designed to last up to 12 years, with 24-hour usage during that time,” Campbell said. “We’re not in the warranty business, so this isn’t a marketing claim. We want to ensure that our chairs actually last that long.

Our Verdict. The Herman Miller Embody scores exceptionally well in our tests and is a premium office chair. It’s incredibly comfortable and you can easily sit in it for a full day. It boasts an excellent set of adjustable features, which allows it the capability to be customizable for many.
