and I'm excited today to finally be unboxing the Herman Miller Logitech Phantom gaming chair and the reason I'm excited about it is because this is the first gaming chair from Herman Miller that is designed specifically for gamers which I'm kind of a gamer myself so let's see how this goes let's start with the Box open here right from the top ready to play Just Three Steps stand between you and the next level of ergonomics simply place the seat onto the base install the headrest and then follow the QR code to adjust the chair to your exact specifications that is awesome so for 995 dollars I don't even have to really assemble the chair it's like pretty much ready to go out of the box which is really cool do I even need this beautiful Jerry rig everything knife from lttstore.com I don't know do I even need to do this video I don't know but we're gonna find out yo that is such a spoiler yeah yo even just moving that it Glides that felt so good and I was just moving the base of the the base of this chair I like the amount of recyclable cardboard that they're using one of the cool things about this chair is that on all their Market materials they're saying that this chair is not designed to be replaced I think they said about 90 of the chair can be recycled at its end of life and Herman Miller chairs at least this one in particular comes with a 12 year warranty which is really cool Phantom gaming chair okay it's a picture of the chair I think that's what it's supposed to look like when I'm done building it anything else in this box nothing yeah that didn't do anything okay and now we basically got the rest of the chair this can be really difficult make sure to follow closely follow closely everyone wow that's really difficult I think that's how it's supposed to be well let me actually look at the instructions so we assembled the chair under the base correctly insert the headrest into the chair back slot I think I just need to push there's a little plastic clip here and I'm kind of wondering if this is supposed to be here or not my gosh okay oh holy crap I just didn't know how much force to apply putting that down okay we're good and then step four of the installation instructions is to just sit on it and that's how you complete the uh the assembly bum drop on it make sure the base is really in there and that's it if I knew how to install the headrest that probably would have took less than 60 seconds to actually install which is really good now we're gonna do the other one should we speed run it I could do it two one go oh no another thing I have to open with my knife this is honestly gonna take the longest I hope you're actually timing me what this is fantastic he's very nice A little bit of contrast this chair comes in three colorways comes in Black obsidian uh dang it I forgot what the other ones are called what no it's not uh comes in a black black and red and a black and white how long did that take that was like 60 seconds right I think I like the contrast of the white colorway so we're gonna go with that for our initial kind of design Impressions here you'll notice by looking at the chair it's leaning a little bit forward and that's because it's got an active forward lean and Alignment to get you to naturally sit up straight and sit a little bit more forward which is supposed to be better for your back I like the just chill nature of it I already talked a bit about how smooth it seems to Glide which is great the Phantom features a glass filled nylon Basin frame Alex just walked by Alex what's so cool about glass filled nylon I don't really know I just know that high-end tools use it that's enough for me I think it helps oh okay that's sick so the other thing is that it has recycled polyester fabric this is interesting when I first touched the armrest I thought they were like a hard ABS plastic but they're like a foam it's a polyurethane skin foam and it actually is like hard and soft at the same time it's a little tough to describe but it's cool what are these names dude skin foam you notice on the rear i o of this chair you've got a adjustable headrest which kind of went through before I was having issues installing it but now that it's in it's good it has just the right amount of give when you're adjusting it it's also got thoracic support pads as well as this kind of spinal support system here and at long last I'm going to sit on this chair I would love to tell you how I'm feeling right now right after a word from our sponsor Corsair thanks to Corsair for sponsoring this video Corsair's Voyager a 1600 laptop combines the latest 8 core 16 thread AMD ryzen 6000 series processor AMD Radeon RX 6800m graphics and AMD Smart Technologies map streaming commands and keyboard shortcuts to 10 customizable shortcut buttons using Elgato stream deck software with drag and drop customization it's thin and compact your game streams and creativity can go mobile so click the link below and learn more about the Corsair Voyager a1600 today I can say with real honesty I've never been so comfortable reading sponsor read before this chair is comfortable this lttstore.com polar fleece is comfortable I'm just comfortable I'm just relaxed I don't even know what else to say let me actually sit up straight try adjusting the armrests they kind of just go there's no buttons or anything that you press oh yeah there are sorry that's a lie so I can go up and down I can go forward and backward very easily I don't think you can go 4D I don't think you can turn them unless I'm wrong I don't think these turn left to right oh they go like that though hey back is supported let me play with some of the dials here I think this just adjusts tension for the spinal support system I felt it moving for a little bit before then I heard a horrifying noise now I'm wondering if I broke it Belle can you slide me the other chair okay it's good all right I was freaking out for nothing so the amount of movement that the lumbar sport system does is just as simple as I do like that you can adjust it on either side I'm glad that they have these so if you're left-handed or right-handed you can easily change it it's just not complicated which is really nice on your right side you'll find the tension adjustment so it goes from one to six adjusting the tension for the recline and then on the left side here we'll find the Tilt limiter so six means this is as far back as I can go and if I turn it down to one I'm assuming I can't go back at all which is correct a few more things it's got the seat depth adjustment which is on the right side here as part of the actual seat I can't seem to get it to work I don't know if I'm just like doing it wrong I don't know hold on let me try to go back here we're trying to figure this out folks bear with us technical difficulty I don't know man I don't know dude in theory it's forward okay we got it it turns out both of our chairs were already fully extended so this is the chair in its back form again remember what I said this whole chair is designed to have you sitting upright and forward for long gaming sessions okay so now I'll actually adjust it and move forward there we go that's how that's supposed to work and then the last thing that we need to find is the seat height adjustment this is it in its lowest state this is it in its highest state and I'm short so we're going back down at this point in the video you might be wondering how much does this thing cost well let me tell you it costs 995 dollars U.S which is a lot of money for a chair don't get me wrong but it's actually less than the Herman Miller embody and honestly chairs in my experience are one of those things that you kind of get what you pay for I have an Amazon Basics Ergo chair at home that I paid 150 Canadian for and it is completely trashed I've had it for a year I need to get another one my experience with Herman Miller chairs at work though have been that they last we have Herman Miller chairs to hear that we've had for years and I would hope that this chair could also stand the test of time as well the Herman Miller embody gaming chair that I'm sitting in right now retails for 17.95 USD you can sometimes get it on sale it's on sale right now the Phantom is only 995 USD and honestly for the cost savings I would go with this this you're going to get more customization it looks more badass but this just seems straightforward minimalist I just like it more lastly let's get gaming and let's get some other people to game too when I game I have a tendency to lean back and this chair is not allowing me to do so and I don't say that in a negative way I mean I just feel actually supported and the fact that I can set the lean tension and the lean limit s i can get to the right amount of comfy you know let's get some other people Jeff do you game Jeff what chair do you use at home I use the Razer isker that you did a first look on like two years ago do you like it I enjoy it the lumbar support's kind of cool I get kind of sweaty because like the leather stuff yeah this looks kind of good take this for a test drive my front my butt feels supported oh playing games my arms feel you know at the right level I think my feet are on the ground would you pay 995 US dollars for it though honestly yes for a Herman Miller that's pretty good I hear that their warranty is really really good so I'm sure this will last me a lifetime of Gaming wow maybe didn't even pay the guy didn't even pay the guy all right next up let's go we've got the biggest gamer in the house I don't know about that I don't know no I just uh we got ploof he sits this man sits I like to sit down you're a keyboard guy you have to sit for the keyboard right what do you have what kind of chair do you have right now I have a Herman Miller Mira at home oh okay yeah nice how do you like it uh I like it a lot I got the steel case series uh one or whatever for my Intel upgrade and I and I changed it out almost immediately because you know what as much as they're a big competitor to Herman Miller it's uh it's not the same one thing I will say is around the office we do have steel case and we have Herman Millers and anyone that sees a steel case is like can I have a Herman Miller and I'm not even trying to be rude I love steel case chairs they're great but yeah it just is what it is I know so the one thing oh no it does okay so it's got like four directional armor it does yeah I thought it didn't but it does angle though I don't think so I have not been able to get them to angle okay I don't know it's good seems comfortable sitting down for a little while and I'm not uncomfortable so yeah beautiful all right next up next up next up sit in the chair Linus yeah you're a chair guy right this thing sucks plus has no taste no taste at all I'm totally kidding what chair do you have at home Linus secret Labs whatever one that we have on the WAN Show oh secret lab okay okay this actually does not have uh this actually does not have great butt support I have a bit of a thicker Caboose and I can I can feel hey but what would you call this like these are bolsters what's what's this yeah ass bolsters yes bolsters and B like I can immediately feel the plastic or plywood or whatever it is under it have you sat in the embody chair before Linus yeah okay so that one is almost double the price this is 995 that's 17.95 I don't think I would have ever thought that I would recommend the 1700 chair but if it's other but if the other option is this are other people saying it's good other than blue who apparently has an ass native steel uh Jeff said it was good I don't know if we can trust Jeff I can feel the bottom yeah you're sitting on a plank man the phone's not firm enough it's just so firm that it feels like the plank oh yeah I can feel it no that's the point interesting yeah we're getting strong plankage Factor right now you heard it here at the end of the day it's a chair it's all going to come down to personal preference you're not gonna be able to please everybody unless you're your mama oh I knew he was gonna do it anyways thank you very much for watching this video make sure to check out some of my other chair unboxings make sure to like get subscribed we'll
