Why Choose a Refurbished Embody
The Embody was engineered to last 20 years or more, so a refurbished one has most of its life left and is the way to buy one. Every chair is checked for authenticity first. If it is not genuine, or it does not meet our standard, it is recycled rather than sold.
- Fully stripped and assessed then rebuilt to specification, not just cleaned up
- Worn parts replaced arm pads, gas lifts and castors as needed
- Back and frame deep cleaned and moving parts lubricated
- Function tested every adjustment checked through its full range
Embody or Aeron
The Embody is the one for long days. Its Pixelated Support back flexes in sections as you shift about, and the narrow central spine moves the way yours does. The Aeron is mesh, so it runs cooler in a warm office, and it comes in three sizes. If people sit for eight hours or more, or have back trouble, the Embody is the one. For general office use the Aeron is the better value.

Used, Second Hand or Refurbished?
Most businesses searching for a used Embody are looking for something better than a traditional second-hand purchase. There is an important distinction, and it matters when you are furnishing a working office. Second hand means sold as found and untouched. What we supply is refurbished: every chair is stripped, inspected, rebuilt to specification and quality-checked before it leaves us. The chair has had a previous life. The standard it arrives at is not. So if you are searching for a second hand Embody to reduce costs, you are in the right place. What you will receive is considerably better than second hand.
Refurbished Embody Explained
Are your Embody chairs genuine Herman Miller?
Yes. We only supply authentic Herman Miller Embody chairs. Every chair is checked for authenticity during inspection, and anything that does not pass is recycled rather than resold.
Are refurbished Embody chairs the same as second hand?
No. Second hand means sold as found and untouched. Our Embody chairs are professionally refurbished: stripped, inspected, rebuilt and quality-checked before they leave us. You receive a chair that performs like new, with a 12-month warranty on the parts we replace.
What warranty do you offer on refurbished Embody chairs?
A 12-month warranty on the parts we replace during refurbishment, subject to our terms and conditions.
Does the Embody come in different sizes?
The Embody comes in one size that fits the 2nd to 98th percentile, roughly 147 to 198 cm and 48 to 136 kg. Seat height comes in three ranges and the arms have three options, so tell us who it is for and we will specify it. If you are ordering for a team, send us the heights and we will advise.
Can I try an Embody before buying?
Yes. Contact us to arrange a visit to our facility, or we can send a sample chair for larger orders.
Do you buy used Embody chairs?
Yes, and they are one of the chairs we most want. We buy Herman Miller seating in volume from 25 chairs upwards, from businesses only. Send us photos and quantities and we will make an offer.
Is the Embody worth the extra over an Aeron?
If you sit for eight hours or more a day, or you have back trouble, yes. The Embody back flexes with you and the seat has cooling foam. For general office use the Aeron is the better value chair. We stock both.
Do you deliver nationwide?
Yes. We deliver and install across the UK. Typical lead time is 10 working days depending on location and quantity.
