      I submitted a quote request to see how much it would cost for one to be delivered, not feeling all that optimistic though.. Will also probably be sold out before I get an answer

      I previously enquired about having a zody chair delivered, and was told delivery would cost $100. At the time, the chair was listed at a “sale” price of $100, normally $200.

      I went down to their office to inspect the chairs, and after being given the impression there was a decent number to choose from, I found no more than three zodys on display, with an equal number marked as “reserved”. The display stock appeared to be in average to poor condition, with all surfaces looking as though they had been scrubbed with sandpaper. Curiously, their black chairs appeared to be worse off than the red, with the seat cushions appearing heavily compressed. After asking if I could view other stock, I was curtly told that the floor stock was it, the rest was stored in their warehouse, and that any stock marked reserved was unavailable. In addition, I was told to make my choice quickly as the price would soon increase to $150.

      While not as keen on the price, I also inspected the Herman chairs available. These were likewise well used, however the chairs on offer were the low spec hard backs, and a couple mesh without adjustable arms. These were priced $450 with ripped seats, $500 for the hardback.

      Way overpriced imo.

      I still decided on the zody after all, however bought new via officeworks and price matched the black model with arms for $760. Not cheap, but the 15yr warranty takes the sting out somewhat. Also pretty comfy.

      • BlunderCat on 12/02/2022 - 21:20

          Wonder if they sort any of the refurbished chairs by condition.

          Maybe 10 year quality of seat cushions for these categories of ergo chairs only represents the 70kg folk

          Sandpaper is one way to renew the surface, I guess

      • lily99 on 13/02/2022 - 10:36

        Is this zody chair high enough for you to rest your head?

        • Mathelus on 13/02/2022 - 13:22

          No, I’m roughly 6’2 and the back reaches my shoulders. An oem headrest apparently exists, though would need to be ordered from Haworth.

          Edit: the headrest is included in the executive configuration, however is also referenced in the service parts section of the catalog

      • freeman61 on 13/02/2022 - 14:28

        Yeah, you got to be comfortable in the chairs if you are in them a while. I have 2 HM Embody chairs. Not cheap at 2 grand a pop, but it is the repetitive use for me. I consider these to be a long term purchase and be sitting in them at my home office for another 15 years. (Work from home, so a no brainer)

        Just wondering how you went about price matching? I just called my local Officeworks and they said they don't price match online.
        They said to call 1300OFFICE to discuss with their head office.
        Did you have to take these similar steps?

        • Mathelus on 13/02/2022 - 15:41
          +2

          Yes, not the most user friendly system for obvious reasons ;) You need to call their office line during the week, as they're closed over the weekend. Provide the website to price match against, have an order placed (as they don't have stock instore), and collect from your local to avoid delivery fees.

      Pre-COVID Herman Millers, Haworth and Steelcase used to be dime a dozen and sold out of corporate offices for $50-$100 a pop in good condition. I got a Mirra for $50, hated it. Now have a Steelcase Leap V2 (which I don't love either, but is a lot better than Mirra), wish I had an Aeron.. not going to pay what they're asking these days though.

      • poppingtags on 13/02/2022 - 09:35

        Interesting - I own the Leap V2 but find the Mirra and the Aeron to offer a similar level of comfort, would be very happy with any of them! Just goes to show the importance of trying before you buy if possible, because everyone is different.

    • Drogo on 12/02/2022 - 23:57

      They are all in pretty terrible condition. Most are quite old too so the mesh needs replacing.

        Did you go look?

        I’m pondering ringing and having a look. The commenter above reckons they were all in crap condition. I am happy to spend more, say $250 if it’s in good condition. Even for $75 I don’t want a severely worn out unit.

        • Drogo on 15/02/2022 - 12:36
          +1

          I went by a month ago. Some of the Zodys looked ok but only a few were on the floor at the time, they would be worth checking out. Heaps of Miras but again I wasn't keen on them as they've all been well used.
          It's worth a drive if you're not too far away but I certainly wouldn't purchase sight unseen.

        This is a very comfortable chair with good build and brand reputation. However based on my own experience a pair of separate arm rests of this model is almost impossible to find in Australia, so be aware.

      Nah, you can definitely buy from here single chairs as a regular customer - multiple people from my work bought their home office chairs from here during the first lockdown.

      They just use this backwards quote system for some reason.

      FWIW, two people bought this specific chair (which is very well reviewed) from here - one absolute loves it (thinks it's the best thing since sliced bread), and one absolutely hates it (I think he is too tall for it). So best to visit instore and trial before you buy. It's in Sunshine, so a fair trek for us eastsiderz! (Apparently the condition of the chairs is quite varied, so best to go in and choose the one in the best condition you can find. You may also be able to negotiate the price down!).

      Source: not my own experience, as I ended up just ordering a chair online…but I sent my boss here to get a Steelcase Leap (she loves it), and a bunch of others from work also bought from here. I would have bought from here myself, but I wanted arms, and they just didn't have what I wanted at the time!

        • Wiser on 12/02/2022 - 21:47

    Bought a single one of these just after Christmas for $90 but they must be keen to move them (am sure taking up a lot of room)
    Chair is in overall good condition, wasnt dirty
    Only annoying thing is the incline resistance winder is broken off or missing on mine (if familiar with these chairs) no biggy for me as I keep it in locked position anyway
    Very easy to deal with and was pretty happy with the condition, just gave it a wipe and it’s an $800 chair for 10% of the price

          When I bought it, didn't have option. They have a tie up with my work place and we get it at a discounted price of $820.

          Apart from back support it is ok with lots of adjustments.

                @Commenter: I'm not an expert, but as I understand it, poorly positioned arms (ie. unadjustable arms) are heavily advised against in terms of ergonomics. But well-positioned arms are fine. So as long as you get arms that can be adjusted in all directions (and adjust them properly!), you should be fine (or if you just happen to be the exact size and shape such that unadjustable arms are in the exact perfect place for you! lol).

                But yes, because most arms are unadjustable (or adjustable but not properly adjusted), the general advice is usually not to have arms, because they tempt people to slouch.

    For what it's worth, Haworth chairs are good and their after sales support is great…

    I bought a Very task chair 5 years ago and easily managed to buy replacement parts mid last year to freshen it up. Paid $200 second hand, lasted about 4 years when it was already worn, and now it's brand new again.

    They're also easily serviceable by yourself.

    I went in today at about 8.30 and they had about 15 or more of the red ones on display. I picked up 2, and I’m actually quite impressed by the good nick they’re in. I couldn’t choose because they were all fairly spotless and mechanically work. They had a couple of $50 ones too, which had damage like the lumbar support not working or something.

    The sales dude was really down to earth and helpful, told me to come swap them for others if I wanted. I told him I saw this on ozbargain and he said there’s been a fair few of us. 👍😄

    They put out 10+ each morning and sell them that day. I saw a truck of new ones (second hand) coming in as I was loading mine.

    They also have a lot of other office furniture, desks, cabinets, etc. Decent quality stuff actually. I took a couple of photos but haven’t done anything with them yet.

      Thanks for sharing

      Sounds like they have improved the sales experience

    Anyone keen for a group buy shipped to Brisbane? The seller won't ship them, but are happy for a courier to collect them.
