—— QUESTIONS
Everything you might ask before buying.
No. The Atlas Headrest attaches to the Embody backframe using included hardware and causes no permanent modification to the chair's frame, mechanisms, or upholstery. Herman Miller's 12-year, 3-shift warranty on the Embody Chair remains fully intact. Atlas has designed the product specifically to ensure this, and states so explicitly.
The Atlas Headrest for Embody is available in three Embody fabric types: Rhythm, Sync, and Medley — each in the colour options offered by Herman Miller for that fabric. The Black Rhythm and Black Sync variants are the ones relevant to this listing. Note that Balance fabric is not currently available as an Atlas Headrest option. To identify your Embody's fabric type, look for the manufacturer label under the rounded cap on the rear of the backrest — the bolded FABRIC code will tell you both the fabric type and the colour.
Look at the plastic spine running up the centre of the backrest and the arm structures. A Graphite frame is matte black; a White frame is bright white polymer. Ensure you select the matching frame colour when ordering, as the Atlas headrest bracket is colour-matched to both options.
Most headrests are designed to hold a single locked position. The Atlas is designed around the opposite philosophy: it is meant to be repositioned regularly, from a fully seated position, without tools. Atlas's own guidance is to get used to adjusting the headrest throughout the day — because healthy sitting is dynamic sitting, and the headrest should move as your posture changes. This aligns directly with the Embody Chair's own design philosophy, which encourages continuous micro-movement rather than locking into a fixed position.
The Atlas Headrest for Embody adjusts on three independent axes. Vertically, the top of the headrest can travel from 10.2 cm (4") above the chair frame up to 34.3 cm (13.5") — a total of approximately 24 cm of height travel, accommodating a very wide range of user heights. Depth adjusts from 7.6 cm (3") to 20.3 cm (8") in front of the chair frame — 12.7 cm (5") of total travel. Tilt offers a wide rotational range to align the headrest surface with any recline angle or upright posture. All adjustments are tool-free and can be made from a seated position.
Yes. The Atlas Headrest's wide support surface is designed to sit behind the head without interfering with over-ear headphones, making it comfortable for gaming, conferencing, and any extended session where headphones are worn.
Installation is tool-free and typically takes between 10 and 15 minutes. All required mounting hardware and instructions are included in the box. The headrest can be removed and reinstalled just as quickly, and leaves no permanent marks on the Embody Chair.
Yes — the Atlas Headrest is available fitted to the Embody display chair in our Almaty showroom. We strongly recommend trying it in person to experience the adjustment range and fit before ordering, particularly if you want to confirm the fabric and frame colour match to your own chair.
Yes. Delivery is available across Kazakhstan and the CIS region, with professional installation available in Almaty.
