LiberNovo Omni Dynamic Ergonomic Chair
What works

What doesn't

- 5-year warranty on a newer brand with a shorter track record
- Tilt mechanism's four lock positions feel limited versus Embody's infinite recline
Herman Miller Embody Chair
What works
- Pixelated Support back adapts continuously without manual adjustment
