So this chair came out of nowhere and it made some waves in the community, but does it give us a good first impression other than the $1500 price tag?

NOTE: We apologize for using b-roll of a MAXNOMIC chair at 1:52. Colton was referring to an old DX Racer chair.

So now after some time with the chair, can we get a follow-up on if it seems like a chair that is worthy of long sessions

@Demainer10 He's supposed to be on camera. From what I noticed the person presenting doesn't have the mask on for presentation and audio purposes, but sometimes those invited to be on the camera for a bit have their masks on cuz they were just going on about their work day

why is he the only guy not wearing a mask in the office?
Costs more than my computer, but I want it.
Linus sure loves his Asian persuasion damn girl
Markiplier have this chair for months.
He doesn't even adjust the damn chair properly... c'mon! Seating height is determined by the upper arms, you adjust the height of the arm rests so that when you put your lower arms on them, your shoulders are relaxed but supported. Then you adjust the height of the chair such that the arm rests are exactly level with the table top. And that's the proper height... this guys having the arm rests under the table surface... completely nuts.
imagine paying over $1k+ for a chair with no headrest

@Pascal1337 I know $400 chairs with an amazing headrests, I thought the same as you till I got a good headrest.

not every person need a headrest for perfect ergonomic and its better to have no headrest than a poor fitting headrest
Thanks for the video. For anyone who are experienced in using the Embody - My back fit adjustment knob is stuck in one place and is not turning. Is there any fix that anybody can recommend? (It stopped working within 5 minutes of receiving the chair after a few adjustmetns)
Or you can just get a secretlab chair for $500 and have the same features plus a head rest.
1500 and no rgbs? Definite deal-breaker
If it had a headrest I'd buy it
No way you’re 160. You gotta be at least 170 lol
Even though this is way out of mine a d most peoples price range it's nice to see a chair designed well and actually be comfortable unlike those "racing seat" garbo chairs
I frekin DIED at 8:17 🤣🤣🤣🤣
My daughter is starting middle school and I want to get her into the habit of maintaining good posture Would the Embody be too big for her?

Is there actually a difference between this and a normal embody? This feels like when the smart kid and the dumb kid work together on a project. The smart kid does all the work but the dumb kid gets their name on the work.
Ethically sourced materials? I don't think there's a way to ethically murder a cow and turn its skin into a watch strap. Unless it's made from roadkill
Why do youtube review thumbnails Have to have the reviewer with their face looking like that?
"Free" shipping AKA shipping cost baked into the final cost of the product
Manage your cables, jungle under the desk. How do people watch this channel
Inches? who the hell uses that in 2020?
AGAIN!!! THE SOY FACE!!! WHY?!?!? What is the deal with that face?
No offense but your desk is waaaay to high
Dude, no chair is worth that much. It's all mind marketing brand manipulation. Apple does it, and the tech they use is cheap and average for the most part but they still charge crazy amounts for their shitty hardware, just so one can use their decent operating system. Make your own comp for cheap and install iOS on it 😋
The one employee at lmg who is constantly looking for an excuse to sit down.
its actually not THAT funny
So this is what money can buy.
Fuck no vincero
Finally a chair that can be use for playing games that doesn't say "for gamers, by gamers"
Only thing that is missing on the chair is head pillow
Dude, IMHO - as a reviewer with this many subscribers, you probably should read the manual 1st to be able to give us a more thorough review on a product. Maybe the chair even lets you extend/heighten the back support to rest your head back, like you found out with the lower seat part, who knowns, right? But sadly we won't know since someone didn't feel like reading the manual prior to shooting the review..
$1500 for a chair... No thanks. For that price I want press a button and it conforms perfectly. You can get a Herman Miller or Steelcase for half the price that's perfectly fine. I'm sure this is a phenomenal chair. But you are paying for not only the Herman Miller name, but also the Logitech name.
I do love Herman Miller chairs. Ver nice!
these chairs were in a car commercial this year.
1:04 Hey there Mutahar
So what exactly makes it a "gaming" chair? And what did Logitech contribute?
i am so regret on my decision. since Herman Miller is always out of stock. so we give a try for autonomous chair, anyone read it, please stay away with autonomous Kinn chair, we dont know any standing desk or other type chair, but Kinn is a joke, we ordered 4, 3 out of 4 are defective products, i.e. gear not match hole, or not be able to put it together, and one is obvious used or returned chair. more terrible thing is they censor the review, and charge high return fee. if you wanna a good chair and don't mind to spend hundred $ more, go with Herman miller. Autonomous Kinn chair is a nightmare, i feel so bad to my other 3 roommates. we ordered them together, only one chair is non-defective, sad story ;/
Nice if you get it free, but there is no f-ing way a plastic game chair is worth 1500!
Aaaaahhhh it's a Logitech "G" not a Google "G" xD
Holy crap! loool Super overpriced.
why is he trying so hard to sell it. lol
This chair is worth 1500$!!! Btw links in description! LOLOL NOlocalrs are a big oof these days. All reviews are fake nowadays. SMH
This boi oozes soy.
Dear god 1500 bucks.....what the actual f
Predator X OTIS beats this hands down
Dman bro you're a dwarf
No desk chair is worth 1500 bucks.
id rather put it together and save 600 on shipping.
it's perfect but.... it doesn't have a headrest :(
No head rest. Not worth
My honest opinion is, that people have done office work for years, and there a lot of companies doing proper office chairs. So if you can live without the "streamer ears" which are there only to market the chair in streams, as normal chair you cant usually see from the front, there have been great chairs available for years. Even lighty used marked is massive and much cheaper as "gaming" chairs.
No neck support, dafaque?!
Let's see how long does it take to have a knock-off of this chair......
Technically it's just a Herman Miller Chair with a Logitech sticker on it, nothing special about it. On the business side it's a really good way for Herman Miller to tap into the gaming market but innovation wise it's not that different from the existing office chair market, it's just that Gaming chairs are so shite that it feels like a huge improvement, even expensive gaming chairs gets beat by a cheap good quality Office chair.
1500 bugs and nothing for the head support when you lean back? no thank you xD

I think it's worth the few hours to go bug hunting in exchange for it!
The arm rests should be at the same height as the table surface.
1,500$ and no head rest? lol
I seen this when it launched. Could they lead the way in the “gaming” chair revolution?? Let’s find out! Lol.
I am kind of tired of these advertisements delivered in the form of a fake review videos.
This looks like the biggest $1500 scam I’ve ever seen
No way this fatty is just 160 lbs
Mans switched a ghost for a classic, this video is now untrustworthy
$1500 and all you get is some shortening words in a douchie fashion like "Sesh" and "Scrim"
It's literally a chair why would anyone waste this money lol
Can you be more flamboyant??? Jesus...settle down.
Is having a head rest bad for your posture? I see a lot of these office ergonomic chair without a head rest
why do you talk about linus when you have 1.28m followers ?
So its an embody, with a logitech logo, which you pay more for.
More chair content please. Steve from gamers Nexus talks to much.😂jk
Took me 60 secs to like this video 😂
1500 دولار ؟؟؟ والله اقعد على خازوق ولا اشتريه
might, but not.
1500 bucks for this is ridiculous, lol. Like I'm sure it's very supportive and all that, but those armrests are an unmitigated disaster, and there are plenty of chairs in the 4-800 dollar range that are as supportive as anybody should ever need a chair to be, unless you have like some kind of super delicate body like a muscle wasting disease or severe lupus or something. People need to stop trying to throw money at their crumbling, weak bodies and fucking get up and stretch once in a while and do core exercises.
Why does no one mention that it doesnt have a headrest? Its one of the most important features on a gaming chair in my opinion.
Imagine having your valorant game thrown because one player is doing a chair review 😂
The little pisces certainly rely because plain modestly attach barring a hesitant psychiatrist. melted, judicious closet
I am definitely excited about an ergo gaming chair, i'm not so excited about the price. I'd do $500 for one though.
lol def not worth 1500
Me: Have a full office chair.. noice Me: looking at a 85% chair whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat?? IF your a tiny person then yesss.... ;-; if your going throught the left and rght side of the chair.
7:22 Where the video starts and ends
FYI, every May there is a Herman Miller sale, the perfect time to buy one. And yes, I bought mine during this period a few years ago.
the tiny person that comes with it. Is he/she is going to be Colton or a similarly built person?
I think you forgot that that thing has a headrest right??? 1.5k, it must have a headrest
You wont brake your back with this one. I have a Ikea chair now for one Year. First it felt supportive but now the lumbar thing is just lose and does not support anymore.
with a 12 year warranty this is actually a good deal IMO, about $150 a year for an amazing chair? sounds good to me bud
please don't advertise cheap watches
as soon as herman-miller throws a "gaming" tag on the chair is when everyone pays attention. before that it's "BUS CHAIR OMEGALUL"

everyone always asks "what is chair?" but never "how is chair?" (ಥ﹏ಥ)
Does anyone know what the desk is that this guy is using?
No head support? Exactly what I hate of my gaming chair haha
Does this increase my FPS ?
my chair is literally falling apart please helpp
Would love to get this but they couldn’t have made it uglier
This chair is really worth the price! when you're young, you don't give a shit what you sit in, so you buy the cheaper chairs just like I always did. But after hours upon hours of sitting in poorly supported, poor postured chairs over time, as you get older it will catch up to you! health wise, with back issues. Nowadays just about all of office chairs, gaming chairs, even name brands ones that are supposed to be premium are made in china, with inferior materials and DON'T last! In the last 4 years, I have bought 4 chairs, different brands that were supposed to be so great, have all fallen apart, became uncomfortable, armrests broke, chair materials flaking/cracking, seat cushions flattened out. Those 4 chairs cost me a aprrox total of 1,100.00 and they were all made in China and are now in the landfill sickening! I stumbled on Herman Miller Chairs all made in the USA, with an unlimited 12 year warranty on the whole chair! After a lot of research, I decided to go with the Embody Chair, because of the support and great posture it provides, Yes I balked at the price of 1500.00 but, when I thought about it, I had already spent approx 1100.00 in the last 4 years on junk chairs that didn't last. So when you break down the cost of the Embody 1500.00 over a guaranteed 12yr unlimited warrantee, thats 125.00 a year. Also notable mention a lot of the Herman Miller chairs last well over the 12yrs they are warranted for. Herman Miller also has a great line of office chairs under 1500.00 that will still provide good support
The logitech branding is just like those corsair chairs, they did nothing aside from picking from a catalog. Except logitech kept their dignity and worked with an actual chair design company instead of a chinese OEM to make a quick buck. I can respect that.
I’m taller than u
Help pls can some one Link me dowm a Char like this lowkey Logitech G X Herman Miller Embody Gaming Chair for like max 250 Dollars LMAO
I’ve been wanting one of these for so long but I can’t afford 😭😭
That looks amazing but my rig costs $1500. There's no way I'm paying that much for a chair until I have absolutely disposable income. Maybe do a giveaway for things like this that no one in their right mind would actually buy. Great review Colton, you're funny AF.
STATIC WARNING
Why is the deskmat upside down The LTT logo is upside down and in the wrong corner Also the blank black portion of the deskmat without the aurora design is on the left side instead of the right, meant for the mouse movement area
If you are in the market for a 1500$+ dollar chair and not just one of the millions of 10 year olds who watch linux videos, get a Haworth chair instead.
