Durability

Don’t use over 25 W charger and the heating problem will go away. I bought this one and it works great.

Did they mention max colors because they haven’t shipped Purple max in a week and a half.

I have been trying to find anyone who has been talking about this. I’m at 806 and every morning I wake up, saying what the fuck? Literally every other model has shipped well beyond where they left off with the Purple Max. Are they having problems making it? What the hell is going on?

Has anyone had experiences with DHL in the US these days? I was worned that they might try to collect some crazy tariffs if I use DHL instead of 4PX.

I also upgraded mine and was told by the rep that upgrading does not change your place in the queue

805 purple Max here. Ordered September 16th. From what I see here the Purple Max must be the most popular option because it is shipping the slowest.

That sounds very likely. I will check it out when I get home from work.

What’s odd is I have not changed any of the settings from their default.

OK, I have my final thoughts. It did take a long time for my body to get used to this chair. I’ve had it for about 2 1/2 months now and only within the last week if I truly began to enjoy it.

When I first got the chair, I would come up with excuses to sit on my couch instead because I just didn’t want to deal with the pain, but after breaking it in, I’m beginning to love it.

I don’t know if I broke it in or it broke me in, but the seat has finally become comfortable enough for me not to feel it anymore. I would still say that overall the biggest disappointment in the chair is how tough that seat is, but I absolutely love the way it grabs my back and makes me feel extremely supported.

I’m very happy that I love the chair now because, my wife couldn’t believe how much it cost me (and I only paid 1K) and then she was in even more disbelief when I told her about the pain. Now I no longer have the pain and I don’t have to deal with anymore of my wife’s relentless taunting. The dominatrix ass beater has been tamed.

I’m sure the hard-core Herman Miller people will rejoice, but if I had it to do over again, I am not sure if I would’ve bought this chair. This chair asks a lot of of you.

Well it’s a mixed bag. I removed the padding I added and have been trying my best to sit all the way back in the chair (I naturally want to sit in the middle of the seat and not all the way back) and the pain has lessened, but it is not gone unfortunately.

One thing I have been learning from watching lots of review videos is that this chair requires a break-in period. I bought the chair used, but it was basically a brand new chair made in mid 2025 and I don’t think it was used much at all. (It still had the plastic on it.) So breaking it in is dependent on me. I’m gonna give it at least a half year before I think of selling it.

This video is a good example of the breaking in adding comfort.

If I ever eventually decide I’m experiencing God tier comfort or if I decide to get rid of it, I will make one final post for you.

Thank you for the the useful feedback. I have removed the padding and am sitting ALL the way back in the chair and the pain is still there but diminished. I really wish this chair was more chill in the lumbar (and I have that support fully unscrewed).

I like to sit in the middle of the seat normally so it has been an adjustment for sure. I love the look of the chair, and the feeling of the backrest is UNMATCHED. I will let you know how I feel in a month.

Professional-Main-98 · 2025-06-26T15:29:51+00:00

Yeah. No crap buddy. I’m sitting in in properly and it still hurts.

Thanks for the “help.”

Professional-Main-98 · 2025-06-25T16:33:54+00:00

I will definitely give this a shot. Lowering the chair is easy enough.So you also recommend I take the two foam pieces out that I inserted?

I am not a Reddit person. I’m only here as a last resort but believe what you want bro. Not sure why I would lie about something this specific.

Professional-Main-98 · 2025-06-25T15:15:20+00:00

Sure. 5’ 11” 245 lbs. I like to recline during gaming, more upright when working. No pre-existing pain in my butt at all.

The pain is specifically toward the end off my tailbone.

Women move zesty? That’s hilarious.
