The Steelcase Leap is one of those office chairs that defies all expectations. It's an ultra-premium chair that delivered all-day comfort, superb build quality, and a relaxed sitting experience for long hours throughout our review.

When it comes to relieving back pain, I don't think there's another chair out there that compares with the Leap. And a lot of that is down to the sheer adjustability here.

First, it features LiveBack technology - you'll see a variety of versions of this system on Steelcase chairs, and what it effectively means is a mechanically engineered backrest that's specifically designed to naturally mold to your spine for continued support. This helps keep your spine aligned at all times while you sit.

Then there are the broad ergonomic controls, letting you fine-tune lumbar support and use the dial to adjust comfort-levels right down to the millimeter. And I just don't see on most other chairs. You also get a height-adjustable lumbar support and adjustable firmness which, again, is perfect for staying comfortable especially if you need true back support.

Overall, the Leap is so impressive it's a core entry in my guide to the best office chairs.
