After maybe 2,000 hrs in each of the first 3, I lean Steelcase but it's personal preference:
- Leap V2 at work, near perfect: I almost never think about it, can cross my legs any way possible, legs under me, sit however, never uncomfortable. Feels like I can "sit hard" into it, snug, backrest gently pushing no matter how I stretch
- Leap V1 at home, almost better: armrests are stronger, enough so I can do dips directly on them, and the backrest stops shorter and rolls more (can actually lean head all the way back)
- Humanscale Freedom w/ headrest, past work favorite: nice recline geometry, armrests barely strong enough for dips, but surface not flexible like Leaps
- Herman Miller Mirra: recline is very nice, and the seat itself has a very nice geometry, but I don't like how cold the mesh gets
- Herman Miller Aeron: pretty good when it fits, but recline is kinda binary, not as analog. My biggest complaint is how hard it is, if you ever happen to touch something not mesh
I'd like to try a Gesture (and an Embody, sure..) to replace my L1, or just get an L2. I'm not picky with desks (28-30") or keyboards. The only thing I adjust on my Leaps is the recline resist, from time to time.
