Mitchell was amazing! A lot of help finding a chair that I found very comfortable, highly recommend!

This is our second time buying from SaviorBack, and I'll keep coming back because it's such a great experience. I'm very happy that Irvine has a place like this to be able to try and buy Steelcase chairs. Mitchell was incredibly helpful and walked us through the process with a levity that made the experience smooth and easy. He was very attentive to the details of each chair and explained their nuances, differences, and advantages. He was patient as we tried them and the different settings and helped size me to the different chairs! When you're new to a chair, this is such a critical step to go through that I didn't learn to do until we came through SaviorBack. Mitchell also makes great jokes and is a funny guy, and he certainly did not tell me to write that in the review. :P We bought two Steelcase chairs: Gesture and Amia. They offer deals if you buy multiple. The chairs are in great shape, and these high-end chairs really are miles away from entry-level chairs. SaviorBack is a great deal for folks trying to get a good fit for their butts and backs but not break the bank for just one chair. Definitely coming back when we need more chairs! Love this company and the way they do business! read more

5/5 Stars - Fantastic Experience with Mitchell! I recently purchased a refurbished chair from SaviorBack, and I had a great experience with Mitchell. When I first booked the appointment, Mitchell reserved 1 hour for me. To be honest, I wondered why purchasing a refurbished chair would take an entire hour! However, once I arrived, I completely understood why. Mitchell spent 1.5 hours with me showing all the details of the chair and teaching me how to properly set and adjust it. He is a true expert on what he sells, very friendly, and also very funny. Time flew by so fast that I didn't even realize we had spent an hour and a half together. If you are looking for a great quality chair and top-tier customer service, I highly recommend asking for Mitchell at SaviorBack! read more

I made an appointment with Mitchell explaining my difficulties in finding an office chair as a tall person. When I arrived, he already had a few models set aside for me to try. Under no pressure to buy, he took the time to show me the adjustments for each chair. I narrowed it down to the Aeron C, Leap v2 and Amia, but none had the seat depth/back rest combo I was hoping for. Nonetheless, I highly recommend SaviorBack for anyone looking for an office chair in a relaxed, no pressure setting. I was there for an hour and he never made me feel like I was wasting his time. read more

SaviorBack is an appointment-only office chair specialty shop that sells only two brands - Steelcase and Herman Miller. According to some Reddit posts, those two brands are considered top-of-the-line when it comes to office chairs. [Appointment]: SaviorBack doesn't have a brick-and-mortar store and requires customers to book a 60-minute in-person appointment on their website. Please note that the purpose of the appointment is testing out their selection of chairs and SaviorBack will not force customers to purchase a chair during the scheduled appointment time. [Process]: I met a gentleman named Mitchell who is the chair consultant or as I call it the "chair concierge." I met him at the designated storage facilities where all the chairs are stored. Mitchell diligently explained each chair and loved cracking jokes in between. There was no pressure to buy a chair from him as he only focused on providing the best possible test-drive experience on these chairs. I tried several different chairs from the Steelcase Amia to the Herman Miller Classic Aeron to the Steelcase Leap V2. [Purchase]: Mitchell offered in-person discounts and I ultimately ended up with the lightly used Herman Miller Remastered Aeron for $825 (tax included) in a great condition which is much cheaper than what you can find online for a brand new one. I didn't need to assemble the chair since it was already assembled. Mitchell helped adjust it before wrapping it in a plastic bag and safely loaded it into my car. Mitchell said that if I am not satisfied for any reason, I have a week to exchange it for a different chair. [Payment method]: Cash, Zelle, or credit cards are accepted (3.5% transaction fee for credit cards). I made a partial payment with credit card (via a phone call to Taketo and I provided my credit card information) and paid the remainder balance through Zelle using my smartphone. [Conclusion]: I absolutely love the chair I purchased and I think of it as an investment for myself considering I occasionally spend more than 8 hours a day sitting in a chair. Excellent service + competitive pricing + pre-assembled = highly recommended. P.S. - Please check SaviorBack's website for a catalog of the chairs they have. read more

SaviorBack - Chairs - Steelcase and Herman Miller (May 2026) - Office Equipment Near Me - Irvine, California

See all

I was searching for a location where I could try various different high end office chairs because I spend so much time seated at my desk. This location has so many different types and brands of chairs. I ended up finding a super comfortable one for a good price. I appreciated Mitchell's help a lot! Thank you! read more

Great experience from start to finish. Mitch is a huge asset to this business. He was knowledgeable, honest, patient, and focused on finding the right chair by asking the right questions rather than pushing a sale. Highly recommended and I'd come back in a heartbeat from San Diego if I ever need another chair. read more

SaviorBack - Steelcase Amia - Office Equipment Near Me - Irvine, California

Got to stop by and try some chairs! It's definitely a big purchasing decision when looking at higher end chairs, compared to what you'd usually find in big box stores. Set up an appointment online, super easy and Taketo lead me through the whole process. Their selection of chairs is pretty good and aligns well with their updated online catalog which was super helpful. Got to try chairs like Steelcase Amia, Leap v2, Gesture and Herman Miller Embody, Aeron. Gave me a good baseline of what to expect and what I'm looking for. Thank you so much! read more

Easily the best experience I've had when buying anything. If you're looking for a office chair at the fraction of MSRP, this is the place to go. Appointment was easy to set up. Location was a storage facility that we followed Mitchell into and we were trying out the chairs outside of it. It might sound a bit weird or look unorthodox, but considering the service, education, and price we got, I wouldn't have it any other way. Transaction was handled via Zelle. My favorite part was that Mitchell, the chair consultant, showed us chairs in all price ranges not just the most expensive one. It really felt like he prioritized us going home with a chair that'll serve us for years instead of a profit. Make sure to check their selection online and specify what you're looking for. Lastly, make sure you have enough room in your car to bring the chair home. If you're unsure, just ask! Mitchell and Taketo (the owner) are very communicative and easy to talk to. read more

Mitchell was wonderful. He's so well educated on chairs. I went shopping at 3-4 other chair facilities and no one was as nice, interested or educated as him. Truly wonderful and will be referring people to him. He also had more options than the other stores I went to and made my experience pretty fun and interesting. Thank you!!! read more

Mitchell has an excellent approach: understand the customer, hear what they have to say, and observe their behavior. He invites you inside the storage, asks you to sit on initial chairs to understand your daily routines, then based on your feedback and preferences, will keep suggesting other chairs until you find a model that completely satisfies your needs. It doesn't need to be the most expensive; it doesn't need to be a Herman Miller chair; your future chair can be something at a lower cost. I never heard about Steelcase, and now I think their products are amazing! Mitch is great to help you pick the best chair for your weight, weight, history of back pain, posture. I'm definitely coming back once my wife decides to take my chair over. I even have my next choice of chair picked up. read more

SaviorBack - The chair I bought from Saviorback. - Office Equipment Near Me - Irvine, California

This was my third attempt to find an ergonomic chair that fits my height and body type due to ongoing aches and bad posture and this was by far the best experience I've had. My coworker recommended Savior. Scheduling was easy, Mitchell confirmed right away and the appointment felt very safe and organized. You meet him at an outdoor gated storage area and didn't felt sketch at all! Mitch patiently guided me through all the chair options and I really do mean ALLLL. He gave me plenty of time to test each one and never made me feel pressured. I spent over an hour finding the right chair. It was a very great experience and highly recommend whether or not you decide to buy one because you learn so much about what type of chair you need. read more

Amazing service and attention to detail! I bought a used Herman Miller Aeron chair here as a birthday gift for my boss, and she absolutely loves it. Huge thanks to Mitchell for the outstanding service! Mitchell took the time to explain every detail of the chair, from the different parts to how to adjust it properly. What really impressed me was that, at my request, he even swapped out better-condition parts from other chairs to make ours look newer and feel even better. That level of care and flexibility is rare to find. The chair looks great, feels great, and the whole experience was smooth and professional from start to finish. If you're looking for high-quality used office chairs and honest, knowledgeable service, I highly recommend this place and especially Mitchell! read more

Mitchell was really helpful helping me find a the right desk chair. My back is very happy with the new chair! They offer really great deals on very high end chairs, highly recommend if you're in the market for a new chair. read more

My fiancée and I had the pleasure of meeting Mitchell to learn more about their selection of chairs as we were in desperate need of replacements. Mitchell was incredibly knowledgeable and guided us through several Steelcase and Herman Miller chairs. Throughout the process, he engaged with us and made sure we could honestly give our feedback on each chair. Though we were only planning on getting a chair for myself, we ended up getting two and for a great price! If you're looking for a high end chair for an affordable price, Mitchell and Taketo are the people to talk to! read more

What a fantastic time we had with Mitchell! He patiently helped us find the best chair by taking the time to understand our needs, how we sit and more. The best chair is not just about big names, but how it fits your daily needs. Going in to our apportionment, I was hyped up about getting an Aeron remastered. However, after a detailed chair lecture by Mitch, I totally changed my mind. I didn't notice that some of my preferred sitting positions would produce pain if I were to do that on an Aeron. Thank you so much for the thorough explanation! Price wise, it was fair. Discount was given for blemish on the back of the chair when it can't be cleaned off. Overall a very nice experience. read more

What an amazing company! Owners are extremely knowledgeable and give excellent input. I could tell their priority was helping me choose the RIGHT chair rather than the most expensive chair. I found their honesty very refreshing and would recommend this business to anyone! read more

SaviorBack - The leapv2 chair. - Office Equipment Near Me - Irvine, California

Very friendly consultation and helped a lot with deciding what to get, would come back again if needed

After 10+ years, it was time to replace my office chair. While the old chair was an upgrade from the big box store chair it had replaced, it never felt quite like the "right" chair for me. This time around, I vowed to find a chair that was the "best" for me. This meant I had to go sit on chairs, rather than just relying on the word of others. SaviorBack had overwhelmingly great reviews, so I figured I would give them a shot. I made an appointment on the website, and was contacted by Mitchell the day before the scheduled appointment. He provided me with very clear instructions on where to meet him, as the company's chairs are all stored in a storage facility. As for the actual appointment, I figured I'd be in and out in 15-20 minutes, but I ended up trying out chairs for over an hour. Mitchell took his time showing me the features of each chair, and he insisted that I go back and forth between chairs, and that I put the chairs through their paces, before I made a decision. After trying as many chairs as I wanted to sit on (including a few Herman Miller chairs), I narrowed my choices down to two Steelcase chairs - the Amia, and the Leap. I also liked the Steelcase Gesture, which I thought felt as firm as the seat of the Amia (the seat of the Leap was a bit softer than the Amia and the Gesture); however, Mitchell suggested I go with the Amia, as a lot of the bells and whistles of the Gesture weren't that important to me. Paraphrasing Mitchell, given what I was looking for, he did not think the Gesture was $300 better than the Amia. At the end of the consultation, Mitchell suggested that, if I decided to buy a chair from SaviorBack, I should purchase the Amia and, if I changed my mind within one week, to give him a call to exchange the chair for the Leap. This is exactly what I did a day after I purchased an Amia, as there were some features on the Leap that I liked, and which I thought might be non-negotiables. First, the Leap has four different reclining positions, whereas the Amia merely allows you to lock the recline (so no recline or full recline). However, Mitchell showed me how to increase the tension of the Amia's recline, which allowed me to dial in the amount of recline I wanted. Second, I also liked that you could get a headrest on the Leap, which is not available on the Amia. After a lengthy discussion with Mitchell, I realized the headrest wasn't really a feature I'd use that much. While I could have easily exchanged my Amia for the Leap, which would have cost me a little bit extra, Mitchell's guidance made me realize that the Amia was the "best" chair for me. Having used the Amia for a few days now, I can say that this was a definite upgrade from my prior chair. More importantly, my experience with SaviorBack was great, and I would not hesitate to either purchase another chair from, or to refer my friends to, the company. TLDR: the entire experience - from consultation, purchase, and customer satisfaction - was amazing. read more

I had a great experience working with Mitch and Taketo. From the start, they were focused on making sure I found the right chair--not just making a sale. They took the time to understand what I needed, walked me through options, and made sure every detail was dialed in before I decided. Their approach was thoughtful, patient, and genuinely customer-first. You can tell they care about getting it right, not rushing you through the process. If you're looking for knowledgeable guidance and excellent service, you won't be disappointed working with them. read more

The chair I bought is great and the shopping experience was even better. Mitch, in the words of his other clients, is an office chair expert, and he really is. Take the time to chat with an awesome gentleman who helps you find a chair that truly fits your sitting style. He is there to help, not sell, and that's what stands out the most. Bonus point: sit there and chat with him a bit more, and you might find he is a great conversationalist with a great sense of humor and a kind character. Will definitely go back whenever I need to buy a new chair. read more

Great service and advice on getting the right chair fo me! Great prices! Mitch was very helpful and accomodating. Best way to buy a chair.

Had an awesome experience working with Mitchell. Honestly, getting an office chair from him was one of the smoothest buying experiences I've ever had. He took the time to really understand what I needed and gave a ton of personalized attention to make sure the chair was the perfect fit. You can tell he actually cares about getting it right, not just making a sale. Pricing was very fair, the whole process was seamless, and Mitchell himself is just a genuinely personable, easy-to-work-with guy. Couldn't be happier with the experience or the chair. Highly recommend. read more

It can be difficult to find the right chair and impossible to find if shopping only online which is why it was such a valuable experience to try different chairs while Mitch explains each chair. He is knowledgable and a fun guy who makes you feel comfortable (he's funny too Marie). If you need a new chair, I recommend this company. read more

Mitchell was super helpful and kind! Very knowledgeable about chairs and helped me try out Herman Millers and Steelcases. It is located in a storage unit, but it was well worth it to try out the chairs and see how it feels before making a purchase. Highly recommend. read more

My wife and I went to Mitch in search of chairs for the home office. Mitch was friendly and thorough in his approach to getting us into the right chairs. At no point did we feel pressured or pushed. He seemed genuinely concerned that we would be happy with the choice we made. Highly recommend. read more

Great experience working with Mitchell and Savior Back! He was informative, friendly, patient, and accommodating as I tried multiple chairs they had available. It was even easy to schedule an appointment online. No upsell or pressure to buy either. Highly recommend! read more

I booked an appointment with SaviorBack on a Sunday with only a day's notice. I was hoping to try ergonomic chairs for the first time and get information on what would be best for me. That is exactly what I got! Mitchell was incredibly insightful and really helped me focus on my needs! No upselling or unwanted salesmanship. I read that the service was slightly unusual without having an official office building, but the facility they held the chairs at was an ordinary and clean self-storage facility near a public shopping center. Never noticed anything that would make the experience uncomfortable, no matter who you are. read more

Mitchell provided a extensive education on the steelcase and Herman miller chairs. Happy that we found this place

Very consultative, Mitch was so helpful. I've been in need of a complete break down of the race of options and he let me sample each chair and was generous with his time. read more

Mitchell was great and helped me select a chair that works for me. My husband and I met with Mitchell at a storage facility that contained various chairs. Don't be put off by the location; it was convenient and completely safe! Mitchell asked thoughtful questions about how I work and took his time explaining the features of various chairs. After trying out a few chairs, I ended up with a different style Steelcase chair than the one I originally intended to buy. The whole process was detailed and helpful, and as a bonus, now my husband has the information he needs when it comes time to replace his chair. I'm sure we will be back to see Mitchell! read more

Good purchase experience and consultative sale. Mitch was a nice guy to work with in finding the right chair. read more

Great service, they walked me through all the adjustability in each chair and helped me choose the right fit for my back.

I was a bit unsure at first since the location is in a storage unit, but honestly, this ended up being one of the best experiences I've had. Mitchell was super friendly, transparent, and really knew his stuff. He took the time to answer all my questions, explain the differences between the chairs, and helped me weigh the pros and cons (even cracked in a few jokes here and there). I got to try out several options, and he asked thoughtful questions to make sure the chair would actually suit how I work. I highly recommend making an appointment here, specifically with Mitchell, if you're looking for a fairly priced office chair and want to try out a few options before committing to anything. Edit: Came in wanting the Embody, but ended up leaving with the Leap V2 since it was better suited for my work style. read more

The best chair fitting service I never knew I needed! Mitchell was thorough and professional, and took time to make sure I understood the benefits of the different options. They have an excellent selection of chairs, all in immaculate condition and it was so helpful to try out different models. I went in thinking Herman Miller was the brand I wanted, and walked away with a Steelcase. Great pricing and amazing service! Such a safe location too, I took my 5 year old daughter with me and Mitchell made sure she was involved in the process, which she loved. Couldn't recommend highly enough! read more

first of all, Mitchell was a very accommodating, pleasant and professional salesman. He helped me pick out a chair based on my needs and then tested it to make sure all parts were working. I did not feel pressured or rushed, and I'm very happy with my experience. Just a note the warehouse where the chairs are , is a bit unusual and Mitchell has to show you how to get to the front entrance, but it's all very doable. read more

Honestly, very great service. I didn't end up buying from them because they didn't have the color that i wanted, but they were very responsive and very willing to educate me on the different kinds of chairs and their pros and cons. I really wish I gave them my business but at the end of the day they just didn't have what I wanted. There is a large selection of chairs and they are priced very fairly too. The person who helped me was Taketo. Keep up the good work! read more

Purchased my new favorite chair from Mitchell here and couldn't be happier! Originally came in looking for the Herman Miller Aeron but Mitchell let me test out 5 other chairs to compare. He really tailored his suggestions and chair adjustments to what i was looking for and was an absolutely pleasure to talk to! Ended up going for the Steelcase Leap V2 and it's a perfect fit so far. The entire process from setting up an appointment to purchasing the chair was super easy. It's really rare for a shopping experience to feel so personalized and human but Mitchell was super personable and created such a pleasant experience. Would highly recommend coming here for your next office chair for the service and value itself! read more

Mitchel and Saviorback.com are incredible I cannot thank them enough. Actually I know so much more about what an excellent quality office chair is now and most importantly how it feels. I have killed my back for years sitting on a chair not meant for me due to the look of it. I finally decided to get something more comfortable since let's face it we all are either sitting, exercising or sleeping most the time and for myself as a photographer and retouched I sit a lot. Anyways Mitchel is super nice and professional and helps you find the perfect chair that fits you. They have both Herman miller and Steelcase, at first I called about the millers because I was going for just the look but the steelcase are the ones for me, I actually will be back soon to grab another one for my wife. I went straight to their storage lockers which is super safe and has all their inventory so you can choose the best chair since all are different with tightness and adjustments etc. I would give them a 10 star if it allowed me, also they allow you to bring back and swap the chairs within a week if it turns out to not be the perfect fit for you. Trust me you will be happy both your back and your wallet if you purchase from them read more

Mitchell was very knowledgeable and professional which made the whole buying experience nice and easy.
