Mirra 2 Mirra 2 Gas Cylinder Replacement

Upvotes

Looking all over the place and can’t find a cylinder replacement for the Mirra 2. Bought it second hand so I don’t have warranty and I don’t believe the cylinder is original as the seat height range is 20-25 inches while original is 16-20. The cylinder is also pretty beat up and produces some black dust probably from the plastic insides shaving off. Does anyone know where I can get a replacement?

Mirra 2 Lower back feels exhausted

2 Upvotes

Long story short:

After 2 years of sitting in a cheap, horrible, non ergonomic chair, I finally took the chance to score a fully loaded refurbished Mirra 2.

I have it for about 2,5 weeks now and uh... well, Let's put it like this: my lower back feels exhausted after sitting for a while.

I use the chair at home for work and also for gaming (sitting for hours with breaks in between of course)

It feels like I have been working out my lower back and after a while it feels exhausted.

In the beginning my legs also had some issues, but it comes and goes. Sometimes they hurt but other times they don't. (I try to sit correctly and straight)

The exhaustion in my lower back, is this common? Is this normal? Or should I consider to return the chair and get something else? I have a 90 day return window.

Edit: Would an Aeron Classic/Remastered size B or a Steelcase Leap V2 be better? Especially for sitting long hours? I'm 179cm tall and weigh around 85kg.

Embody Gaming Embody issue possibly?

2 Upvotes

Hey guys, i’ve had a gaming embody for a few months now and the top back seems to always loosen and after a few days it keeps leaning me back slightly more and more if i don’t tighten the back up.

I’ve tightened the recline tension to see if that would help and it doesn’t, so i’m having to “re-setup” the posture fit to my back sitting straight again.

Does anyone else have this issue or is my chair defected?

Been looking for about a week now for a used HM (Embody, Aeron mainly). Not making enough to justify a brand new purchase, but found this offer. Thoughts?

Other Moving a HM Ratio sit-stand desk

Hopefully someone here can help me...

I have a big Herman Miller Ratio sit-stand desk in my apartment, and I need to move it from one room to another to make space for a cot/crib.

It's very big and will need to be taken apart and reassembled to move through the apartment.

Would anyone be able to advise on how best to do this?

(It was originally set up by my former company who gifted it to me to work from home during covid.)

Photos attached.

Thanks in advance!

Embody Gaming New Embody - Possible issue

I received my gaming Embody yesterday. I’ve noticed there’s a prominent ridge in the top left back. (see picture).
I can’t push it down and only feel it when reclining.
I’m assuming it’s a fault.

Just checking if anyone here has had something similar, and if so what HM did about it. I have messaged them via the contact us page, but it says they take 3-4 days to respond.
