Herman Miller Embody review: There is no perfect chair... but this comes close

A black Embody chair next to a standing desk. .

So, this Embody review has a perfect five stars. There must be absolutely nothing wrong with it, then? Well, of course not. There's no perfect chair for everyone, as people come in all shapes and sizes with different tastes. But the Embody comes pretty damn close, and I feel it needs to be distinguished from other near-perfect-scored chairs out there. In fact, it's so good that I'm going to start this review by focusing entirely on the negatives first (this won't take long). 

In the UK Herman Miller have 'partnered up' with Logitech and marketed the Embody as a gaming chair. I have no idea why. There's an embossed 'G' on the back that peels off. There's also a pull strap on the back that breaks off. (Neither things are meant to happen). In the US you're getting the exact same chair, but without the crap hang tag and G. You win.
