Humanscale Freedom Chair Review

It's really nice. Now Humanscale is known for really nice. Looking furniture too

Office chair that's not $1000+ ?

If I had it to do over again, I'd probably have gone with a more expensive leather version of the Freedom to be honest. I wanted to but the thought of paying nearly 2 grand for a chair and then not liking it and being stuck unable to return it would have made me even more sick to my stomach than buying a $1200 chair and being stuck with it. No one anywhere near me had one to try, not even the local humanscale dealer store I bought it from.

The most comfortable chair on the market... if only the construction & support matched the price tag

I started having issues with nerve pain sitting in desk chairs, and my doctor told me to seek out a premium desk chair that's highly ergonomic. I went through quite a few top end chairs, including the entire Herman Miller line, but they all put pressure on the area on the back of my legs that was at...

**Humanscale Freedom** (Looks OK, intrigued by gel arms and seat (BTOD say its bad though) not a fan of the way your head is pushed when reclining. Doesn't lock upright. Arms arent super-flexible compared to competitors).

Root cause of assorted complaints can be fixed.

I have owned a HumanScale Freedom Chair with headrest since 2005. Like many have commented, the chair has not been a good as I expected. I have made some adjustments that have helped significantly. Adjusted the chair height above the floor so that I sat square in the chair and my feet were flat on t...

* Loved the Humanscale Freedom with Headrest. Really stylish design that doesnt look too space age, techy or overwrought. The headrest hits JUST right (under 5'5") and supports without forcing my head forward at a weird angle. Great lumbar that adjusts.

Gears break very easy for arm rest adjustment

I did not buy this through Amazon but I wanted to warn people of my experience. This will be hard to explain but I will do my best. The arms are height adjustable. They lock in place by one half moon shape gear mounted on the frame and a stump with gear shape with teeth the match the half moon shape...

Picked up a used Steelcase Gesture for $390. I think I finally found a daily driver.

For reference I am 6' 180 lbs. After trying the Embody Logi for 10 months, long usage in an Aeron Posturefit SL size B, Leap V2, Humanscale Freedom low back, RFM Carmel, Steelcase Amia, and Think, this is definitely the most comfortable for chilling and getting computer work done.
