Herman Miller, known for manufacturing mid-century classics such as the Eames Lounge Chair and the Irving Harper Marshmallow sofa, has joined forces with gaming peripherals company Logitech to create the Embody Gaming Chair, a pricey yet undoubtedly comfortable chair for hardcore gamers.
Not known for its affordable prices, Herman Miller is marketing the Embody Gaming Chair at a cool $1,495. Designed with the help of a team of 30 doctors and PhDs in biomechanics, vision, physical therapy, and ergonomics, this ultimate gaming chair is padded with “copper-infused particles” that cool off the body, and “pixelated support” that evenly distributes the user’s weight.
Given that sitting with bad posture can result in muscle strain, the most common cause of low back pain, the chair might be a sound investment for professional gamers. The Embody has 150 small supports that reportedly allow blood to flow more easily to areas like your lower back and legs. It also features a twist knob at the back right of the chair that adjusts the angle of the back support, enabling avid gamers to lean back or forward.
The armrests can be raised and lowered and moved from side to side to change their angle. For those that prefer no armrests, they can also be lowered to the height of the cushion. In addition, the seat can be extended by lifting the front corners.
Unlike your standard office chair, the Embody is also environmentally friendly, made up of 42% recycled materials, and is up to 95% recyclable. It also comes with a 12-year warranty, which somewhat lessens the sting of the price tag. In addition, Herman Miller claims that the chair is built to last so there’ll be no need to replace it in a few years.
Herman Miller also sells the Ollin Monitor Arm for $295 with a 26.5-inch horizontal and 13.5-inch vertical range of motion that allows gamers to position their screen where they feel most comfortable. And the Motia Gaming Desk, another collaboration with Logitech, for $1,295, which can be raised or lowered to any height with the touch of a switch, allowing gamers to position it at standing height if they feel like stretching their legs.
