While there are certainly more expensive chairs out there, I find the ergonomics of the Very fantastic. Having a chair with every adjustment I can think of is so important when you get past the $500 mark. Knowing I can more the arms every way I need is a top feature. How useless does a chair become if it doesn't support my elbows while typing or gaming based on my current desk height? I opted for the lumbar as well and find it quite noticeable through the mesh, but it helped me find the right adjustment. You can change the lumber adjustment on both the right and left side but I'm not sure what sitting posture would require this asymmetry in support. The seat depth is also helpful in ensuring I get full contact with the cushion but that the lumbar meets my back at just the right place.
One thing I've never had is tilt adjustment. Great for writing tasks. I found it confusing at first, but you really notice how the lumbar support follows you when you lean in to write, or working on art projects. Without the tilt adjustment in place I feel much less supported. A nice feature I had never heard of before!
I got the digital knit and my roommate has the same chair but in the mesh, I actually really like the feel of the knit a lot more, it's a touch cozier.
Only thing missing! A headrest! No desk chair is truly upper back friendly if you can't rest your pretty little head during long brainstorming sessions. While the executive chair exists, and I admire the look of the fern, the Very in the blue and white is just right for a bright aesthetic and not blowing all my money. I'm considering buying an attached headrest because it really makes your thoracic spine and neck thank you.
Overall highly recommend! But if you're spending all the money for a chair like this, consider the extra cash for any model/brand with headrest, I wish I did.
