For the comfortable – Series 1 win

Series 1 is the cheapest chair in the Steelcase while Ergo Chair is the most popular segment for Autonomous. Both of them are usually argued about the quality and the service.

So Series 1 is more highly rated even though many users don’t like it because they were designed for average users.

Overall about Series 1

The Steelcase 1 is a good choice for those who want an affordable office chair that is comfortable and offers a good range of adjustments.

Series 1 have them own unique back and arms. They are a bit less robust than most of the higher end Steelcase options, but it’s also significantly less in price. You can see the different between them when you first sit in. They both have similar lumbar support, but 1 offers a little bit more. The arms are where they differ most, with the Series 1 having less padding and being adjustable only in two dimensions.

However, the Series 1 the arms are attached to the backrest, so when you lean back the arms go back at an angle as well. This seemed like a minor inconvenience at first, but it actually became quite annoying.

The seat pad is fine, not too soft and too firm, but just right and it’s contoured. The backrest has the flexor live back technology which is pretty good. The only thing is that the backrest isn’t as tall as I’d like it to be. If you go all the way back, it’s very easy to recline.

Pros:

-Affordable

-Comfortable

-Good range of adjustments

Cons:

– arms are attached to the backrest

– backrest isn’t as tall as I’d like it to be.

Overall about Ergochair 2

Ergochair 2 has more adjustment options than the Steelcase 1. The weakness of this chair is the hard structure and uncomfortable that many users said. The lumbar support is good, but after using 1-2 hours, it’s not that perfect to support your back compared to other chairs on the market.

Another way, there’s no lumbar adjustment, so you are left to fend for yourself and find your own pillow. And the armrests don’t have a lot of maneuverability to them overall. They do swivel in and out, but they don’t go up and down, and there’s no way to adjust the depth of them. The headrest is also not adjustable, which is a little bit disappointing.

Pros:

-More adjustment options

– Good lumbar support

Cons:

– hard structure and uncomfortable

– no lumbar adjustment

– armrests don’t have a lot of maneuverability.

– headrest is also not adjustable.

Conclusion

After trying out both the Steelcase 1 and the Ergochair 2, it is clear that they both have their own pros and cons. The Steelcase 1 is more affordable and comfortable, but the Ergochair 2 has more adjustment options. It really depends on your individual needs as to which one would be the better choice for you.
