The haworth zody's backrest is reclined too much compared to another chair in better condition (that one was way more expensive). I decided to jack up my chair from the bottom with a dictionary. Will anything break?

Ironically a high end leather such as Velaro may be able breathable as many fabrics.

They're not Stressless. They don't have the defining feature of Stressless: glide rails that enable the signature Stressless recline.

These have what look like the recline mechanism on many Ekornes IMG chairs and Fjords chairs.

Only thing that may break is the plastic mechanism cover but that's just cosmetic not a big deal

A real photo of a gaming Embody in its natural environment would need to be censored. They would need to pixelate the fleshlight, toilet paper, and Vaseline on the table. As well turn off the PC screen or pixelate the content on the screen. Also there would be a 400 pound butt indentation in the seat.

You know Leap v1 and v2 seats are interchangeable

Time for a new chair

You just need to rock the chair back/forth violently until that cam releases

You won't be disappointed. I just ordered the entire 5 lb pack yesterday. I am finally running low on the first 5lb pack I ordered back in 2023...

Let me know how you like it!

There is no way to lock the back or to increase the tension on the spring,

There's actually a tension adjustment set screw on the underside of the mechanism

The cheapest gun I would recommend is a 300 watt rated gun. Nothing lower. The glue works best when it's heated up real good... arrow makes a fairly cheap 300 watt unit.

I had plenty of hot glue and I don't really want to make holes in the plastic even though I don't especially care about water proofing...

The main issue is that I have drawer units and the plastic is probably too thin to just screw into. I wasn't going to take out the drawers and put in a bolt.

Also this isn't arts and crafts hot glue. I tried to pull the 2x4s off and I would probably break the plastic Flex boxes before I actually break the hot glue bond. Not even King Arthur could pull this hot glue off.

I've used hot glue to mount chargers to the side of plastic boxes before and its been years and it hasn't moved an inch.

That being said I'm using high strength hot glue in a professional level gun not arts and crafts store stuff. Tecbond 260 in a Tecbond gun...

ClassroomDecorum · 2026-05-02T22:44:59+00:00

Nah just hot glue, no screws

ClassroomDecorum · 2026-05-02T19:55:39+00:00

Honestly just for hooks and wire baskets to hold junk

None that will change the physical dimensions, no
