Unbegrenzte Individualität für Performance & Komfort. Dämpferkraftverstellung separat für die Zug- & Druckstufe.
Wie bei jedem KW Gewindefahrwerk entwickeln unsere Fahrwerkingenieure auch für die fahrzeugspezifischen Anwendungen des KW V3 eine sportlich-harmonische Grundabstimmung. Neben Tests auf unserem KW 7-post Fahrdynamikprüfstand absolvieren wir dazu ausgiebige Messfahrten auf Landstraßen, der Autobahn und selbst auf der Nürburgring Nordschleife Testkilometer für Testkilometer, um Ihnen die perfekte Fahrwerkabstimmung zu garantieren. Seit Jahren ist das weltweit zu den Top-Aftermarketprodukten zählende KW V3 die Referenz für Gewindefahrwerke. Mit seiner Dämpfercharakteristik, der hochwertigen Verarbeitung und der ausgezeichneten Langlebigkeit überzeugt es anspruchsvolle Sportwagenfahrer, Tuner, Groß- und Kleinserienhersteller wie Alpina, MTM, Manthey, Oettinger und viele weitere namhafte Unternehmen in der internationalen Automobilbranche.

Spitzentechnologie aus dem Motorsport
Viel mehr als eine sportliche Tieferlegung und ein ausgezeichnetes Fahrverhalten auf allen Straßen erhalten Sie mit dem KW V3. Es basiert auf unser langjährigen Erfahrung als Fahrwerkhersteller und Ausrüster im internationalen Motorsport wie etwa in den Tourenwagenserien ADAC GT Masters, FIA GT1, FIA GT3, International GT Open, WTC, VLN und auch beim legendären ADAC Zurich 24h-Rennen Nürburgring.
Ähnlich wie bei unseren Rennsport-Gewindefahrwerken aus dem KW Competition-Programm kann beim KW V3 die Zugstufe und die Druckstufe unabhängig voneinander eingestellt werden. Diese individuelle Abstimmungsmöglichkeit wird von Veredlern, Sportwagenmanufakturen, Tunern und anspruchsvollen Fahrern weltweit geschätzt.


Das perfekte Fahrwerksetup für deutlich mehr Fahrdynamik
Haben Sie an Ihrem sportlichen Straßenfahrzeug bereits erste Performance-Modifikationen durchgeführt, ist es ein Leichtes mit dem KW V3 diese zielgerichtet in der Dämpferabstimmung zu berücksichtigen. Die patentierte KW Ventiltechnik für die getrennte Abstimmung der Zug- und Druckstufe erlaubt es Ihnen die fahrzeugspezifische Grundabstimmung von KW individuell anzupassen. Beispielsweise gibt Ihnen das im Lowspeed-Bereich der Druckstufe in zwölf Klicks einstellbare KW-Bodenventil den Spielraum, selbst die Reifencharakteristik Ihrer High- und Ultra-High-Performance-Straßenreifen bei der Fahrwerkabstimmung zu berücksichtigen.
Durch die patentierte Druckstufeneinstellung am unteren Kolbenende des Edelstahlgehäuses benötigten Sie dazu nicht einmal Werkzeug. Die einstellbare Druckstufenabstimmung mit ihren zwölf exakten Klicks erlaubt es Ihnen per Hand auf Karosserieroll- und Wankbewegungen Einfluss zu nehmen, ohne dabei die optimal zur Federrate passende Zugstufendämpfung verändern zu müssen.
Mit der individuell einstellbaren Zugstufenabstimmung des KW V3 können Sie direkt das Handling und den Komfort durch die exakte Klickverstellung beeinflussen. Je nach Fahrzeugtyp werden die Zugstufenventile der KW Zweirohrdämpfer am oberen Ende der Kolbenstange über ein integriertes Einstellrädchen oder dem im Lieferumfang beinhalteten Aufsteck-Einstellrädchen abgestimmt.
Indem Sie über das Einstellrädchen die Zugkraft erhöhen, verringern sich die Aufbaubewegungen an der Karosserie. Ihr Auto fährt sich dadurch spurtreuer und Sie haben bei erhöhten Kurvengeschwindigkeiten noch mehr Stabilität. Wechseln Sie beispielsweise von den freigegebenen Rad/Reifenkombinationen Ihres Automobilherstellers zu größeren Felgen, können Sie mit dem KW V3 das Fahrverhalten Ihres Autos und Ihrer neuen Leichtmetallräder perfekt aufeinander abstimmen.


Hochwertig, individuell und langlebig
Schon während der Produktion wird das KW V3 ausgiebigen Qualitätstests unterzogen und jeder einzelne Dämpfer überprüft. Nur so werden wir unserem Anspruch gerecht, beim Einbau eines KW Gewindefahrwerks V3 durch einen KW Fachhandelspartner eine Garantie von bis zu fünf Jahren zu gewährleisten. Durch die filigrane Verarbeitung und der Nutzung hochwertiger Komponenten sind beispielsweise die KW Gewindefederbeine aus Edelstahl zu 100 Prozent rostfrei und besitzen eine unbegrenzte Lebensdauer.
Dadurch ist die Funktionsweise der stufenlosen Tieferlegung über das schmutzunempfindliche KW Trapezgewinde und den KW Polyamid-Gewindering auch nach Jahren nicht beeinträchtigt. Durch die individuelle Tieferlegung mit ihrem stufenlosen Verstellbereich können Sie die Sportlichkeit Ihres Fahrzeugs auch optisch betonen. Ein Feature, das in der Performanceorientierten Tuningszene sehr beliebt ist.

Unexpectedly great chair - easily adjusting it to suit changing day-to-day needs makes it incredible
Color: Black Rhythm
The bottom line on this chair is that it is unexpectedly miraculous. After just 3 days, I've found it is unconventionally comfortable and the thing that makes it unique is that it renders adjusting it a normal part of its usage. I was originally like most folks, I presume - set the chair and then see how it does - but this chair demands that you use its intuitive controls to change things around as your needs change during the day. It is so easy to do, and that is where the magic is. I graduated from an excellent budget chair, the Alera Elusion high-back that is very adjustable. After over 5 years of pretty heavy usage, though, it was showing its wear, and I was really starting to feel the cushion every time I sat on it. I also started to experience some neck, shoulder, and lower back discomfort, and decided it was time to graduate to a better solution. I did not consider the Embody chair initially. At first glance, it looked a bit weird, and it was also on the expensive side, so I blew right past it. My initial starting point was the Aeron. I had used one at work years ago, and I recalled its adjustability. My body was much younger when I had used it, so I didn't experience its ergonomic benefits as well as I should have. I also looked at Steelcase models as they had some good reviews. Steelcase didn't fit my requirements as well as the Herman Miller solutions, so I gravitated strongly to the Aeron and was about to push the trigger on the order. A last second search on YouTube led me to the Embody and I was intrigued because of a couple of factors: the intuitiveness of the controls and the emphasis on the flexibility of the back and seat. The people that loved it REALLY loved it, and that, compounded with the Herman Miller return policy interested me enough to try it. So, here are some findings from the past 3 days: First, the seat is incredibly comfortable. The pixellated solution flexes with the weight that is applied to it, and it makes you feel as though you are suspended with no uncomfortable pressure points - this completely resolved the issue I was facing with the old Alera. It breathes well, is cool, and just invites you to sit down. The seat length adjustment required a little strength, but works well - you are not stuck with just the default length that might be either too small or too large. I had to adjust a couple of times to get just the right length. Once set, I don't foresee having to adjust it often. Second, I have found that I change the recline setting on the chair frequently. When I am typing, I set it so that it is relatively rigid, and when I am mostly reading, I set it so that it flexes more. There are several aspects to this - for typing, I set the tilt limiter to the position that allows the least possible movement or the next step down. I tighten the recline knob to keep me more upright, and adjust the back to a comfortable setting. It is all really easy, and the chair gives immediate feedback to ensure a good setting. When I am reading, I set the recline to setting 2 or 3 (more recline) and relax the recline a bit. That gives me the opportunity to lean back as needed and move around, with full support. If I am watching YouTube, I go to the most relaxed recline setting, and adjust the back to a less aggressive setting, and it is very comfortable. Setting/resetting all of the controls is responsive, easy, and intuitive. I never thought that this would be so required in a good seating experience. Third, I fiddled with the height of the chair to find the most comfortable setting. I use an iMovR standing desk and a Kinesis Advantage keyboard. I initially set the chair/desk combination so that my feet were flat on the ground and so that my forearms were angled downward slightly - supposedly more ergonomic. I ended up with some discomfort in my right wrist. Through experimentation, I found that raising my table or lowering the chair so that my forearms are angled a bit upwards got me in the correct wrist position for the keyboard, since it has wells. I am more upright with these settings, and am finding that my back is much more in contact with the chair, providing great and flexible support. This may not work well for folks using normal keyboards, but it is great with the Advantage. I also adjusted the height of the monitor so that it is a little higher than most ergonomic folks would recommend. I had found that by keeping the top of the monitor strictly at eye level as recommended, I was moving my head down to read the lower part of the screen, and this was causing some neck discomfort. My current setting is very comfortable. I have spent long hours in this chair over the past few days, and I am very impressed. My experience with the Alera and Aeron, both excellent chairs, is that they unwittingly promote the initial set and don't adjust paradigm, simply because adjustments, though technically possible, are not as integrated into the seating experience - you have to bend, get up, or twist unnaturally to do the adjustment. The Embody chair, on the other hand, encourages adjustments while you are in the seated position because the controls are few and easy to reach. This allows adjustments that correlate to the changing needs of our bodies throughout the day with immediate feedback because all of the controls are so well placed and simple to use. Flexibility and consistent support are inherently part of the design. No doubt that this chair is expensive, but with the generous 12 year warranty, this chair is about as good an investment you can make for your back and your general health if you spend significant time in a chair.

The perfect office chair for me
Color: Berry Blue Balance
I’ve always wanted a good ergonomic chair for my home office but, since most of my time was spend in the office prior to COVID, I couldn’t really justify spending the money. When COVID shutdown the office and remote work meant spending 10 – 12 hours in my cheapy chair, it was time to look for the home office chair of my dreams. I really had three chairs in mind; the Herman Miller (HM) Aeron, the HM Embody and the Steelcase (SC) Gesture. Why did I settle on the HM Embody? • Seating Material – In the office, the AC is always cranked up so you don’t really get hot even when sitting for long periods of time, so breathability of the seat doesn’t seem to be as much of a problem. Normally, at home you don’t have the AC up as high so there is a higher chance that your butt and back of your thighs will get hot and sweaty. The Gesture is a more traditional office seat design with tight woven fabric on a foam cushion seating surface. You could image it getting hot. The Embody has what I would call an airframe. The seating material is a sort of open weave, porous fabric (Balance fabric) and stretched over a frame. This allows air to circulate freely through the seat. Aeron is similar but a mesh. In this area Embody was chosen because, if you are wearing shorts (no one sees below our chest on a vid call. . . right?) the mesh could be rougher on your skin and not be as comfortable. This turned out to be true. The Embody fabric was much softer to the touch, yet just as breathable as the Aeron mesh. Durability of the fabric is very good and after almost 2 years of daily use there is no signs of wear or color fading. • Ergonomic adjustments – All three chairs have similar seat adjustments with one exception. The Aero and Gesture have adjustable lumbar supports. The Embody doesn’t. It has a sort of lattice structure that has curvatures to cradle your back. You can adjust the angle of the backrest to come in closer to your back, thus giving more lumbar support (and upper back support) or away for less. How this would actually feel was a big question at time of purchase, but I can tell you that it works fine for me and provide the support I need. I also like how the backrest tapers towards the middle. This allows more freedom of movement of your arms and elbows. • Arms - The arms should be part of the ergonomics, but although the Embody has less adjustments here it still provides good ergonomic support. The arms on the Embody move up and down and narrower to wider. They don’t slide fore/aft or pivot in/away from you. The limited arm adjustments have not been a problem. I can comfortably use the armrests all day. If you want more arm adjustability, the Gesture offers more, but from my use of the chair in the office, some of it like the pivot function, just get in the way. • Seat structure – All three have solid, durable structures. I have not had any problems with the base, casters, or seat frame itself. I expect it to last a long time. Now, everybody’s body is shaped differently and that matters when choosing a chair. To my knowledge the Embody and Gesture only come in one size while the Aeron is available in three. I am assuming that the Embody is designed to fit people within a certain average height and weight range. If you fall outside of that, the comfort and fit won’t be as good. In that case, you might want to look at the Aeron which offers different height adjustment ranges, seat widths, etc. You might also be a borderline so consider this example, I’m on the shorter side and with the Embody at its lowest position, I am just barely at the correct knee position. It works for me, but I have no margin. However, if I have chosen the Aeron size A, I would have additional space to lower the seat, but would also have to consider the narrower seat body. To sum it up. The Herman Miller Embody was well worth the price paid. The seat is very comfortable, breathes well, offers great support and is built to last. I would recommend this chair to anyone who is looking for a premium quality ergo chair, but as you can see, there are others that are just as good and may even fit your better. I hope I have been able to give you a good comparison that can show you the difference between a few of them so you can determine what is most important to you. However, no review can ever replace in seat (no pun intended) experience. If at all possible, find place where you can actually try them out. This is my 100%, guaranteed, best recommendation!

Not for short people, as in 5'4"
Color: Black Rhythm
TLDR, this is a used so no warranty. You have to do some putting together, comes in a wide square box, came used that's for sure. Gas lift is wobbly and it costs $90 to replace, again no warranty with this chair buying from here. Not a good chair for someone short, and wearing 28 length pants, feet barely fully floor. Tends to make you lean back, so not a good work chair/competitive gaming chair. Lastly, not comfortable, too much ergonomics (doesn't feel ergonomic though, not for me), imagine trying to get work done and in discomfort, half of the discomfort is from the seat, so the discomfort is felt in the glutes. I'm around 5'4". My glutes are uncomfortable and the mid back is uncomfortable. The seat towards the end it has a lot of pressure so its not comfortable for glutes. It just lacks lower/mid back support, I sit as hips forward and upper back backwards it cannot be adjusted so the seat tilts forward which would probably help relive the discomfort in my glutes as well. My feet barely fully on the ground, so just to give idea 5'4", I wear 28 length pants. No tilt, so I'm sitting leaning backwards a lot, the seat edge curves up so uncomfortable on glutens, doesn't go down far enough either. Not a good chair for a short person, but there is hardly chairs for short people too, very frustrating. $1355, wobbly, still not a good chair for short person, some of the features are not present, forward tilt, the back piece does not go back down by itself either, it leans back with the seat. The back rest it only goes in from the very low back, it makes you lean back even more. Probably a gamer chair sitting leaning backwards, but I play video games too. If your playing competitively your not leaning back your comfortably forward. This chair doesn't have that. This is more an MMORPG chair than a competitive video game player chair. Or someone who does IT work and has to get done, seat forward comfortably, not leaning back. I'd list the pros, but the cons far outweigh the pros and I paid $1355 for this, there should be little to no cons. Chair is not comfortable so it doesn't matter what the pros are, its not comfortable for a short person. I need forward tilt on the seat. Leaning back the seat, the whole seat leans back, so the forward edge leans back too, meaning my feet are not fully/comfortably on the ground anymore.

PURE JOY? Words can't actually express it!
PURE JOY? Words can't actually express it… …so why try. Just say that after a quick and painless assembly of the back onto the chair base, and within mere minutes of sitting in the chair, I knew why it was worth the price in terms of both quality and comfort. I instantly knew it would benefit so many others with a range of different shapes, sizes, and complaints about sitting (especially long periods.) 5 minutes of sitting in the chair and my neck felt different, better... 10 minutes that and my back -- the actual SPINE -- felt no other way than I can describe but "better" because there was no weight on it, no pressure I didn't even realize was there previously in other chairs, and yet it was fully supported. Moving in the chair is also a pleasure -- I can reach back behind me a bit for a tissue on a shelf and the chair curves with my back! in fact, just about any way I move my back at all, the chair moves with it like fluid, providing support and comfort, and without getting in the way! You can spend some time with all the various adjustments (all very simple to operate and understand, but there is an AMAZING amount of flexibility in the configuration for this thing..) So many adjustments! Even for my mom who prefers chairs that tilt forward -- there is an adjustment for that. Curved back or straight? Adjustment for that. Elbow height? Adjustment for that. Long thighs? Adjustment for that!! (yes, the seat fabric can take the good range of movement for this adjustment!) You'll also note quality construction in the frame and casters, and arm rests and how they are attached to the base, and in the tension (also adjustable in several places) in chair movement. Those who need to put weight on their chair arms to sit or get up can easily slide the arm rests down -- and actually USE them to support themselves getting in and out of the chair due to the quality materials/construction. Within 1-1.5 hours of sitting in the chair after making the many various appropriate adjustments and understanding them, I ordered 2 more of these chairs! I needed one for my lady (so she will spend more time in the office with me!) and one for my mom, who really needs this chair for her back, posture, and ultimate comfort. I imagine she will cart it back and forth between her computer desk, kitchen table, and living room replacing the couch/chairs!!! BUY IT!!! For me personally, I did have issues with my back and I found myself recently constantly adjusting my lower back and how I sit. I have a curved back and slouch, rarely sitting with my butt in the back of the chair (towards the rear of the seat, where it generally should be!) but usually in the middle (even to front at times, towards the forward edge of the seat!) I also have shoulder/neck issues from elbow height and it seems no matter what chair/desk I purchase there is never a chair that is comfortable at the same height it takes to get my large thighs under the edge of the desk, in order to get my hands close to a keyboard without slouching forward. All of these issues were wreaking havoc on me in multiple ways, and ultimately I lost productivity and creativity, working less and less. Also I was tired - ALWAYS falling asleep in my chair. Not great when as a small business owner and software developer, I spend sometimes 20 hours in it at a time, and typically spend some number of hours in it 7 days a week. Would I buy another? In a heartbeat! As mentioned, I already bought two more for the important ladies in my life. Next, I will be buying them as bonuses for my employees, it will definitely help their productivity and it is also a tax deductible expense in that regard! 12 year warranty? I can see that not being needed with this quality, but it's good to know. Now, as the title says, words can't express it - JOY! Easiest thing to say is that all the problems in the previous paragraph? FIXED! (and then some) I could write more - this chair will ensure it, but my time is expensive so I gotta move on. JUST BUY IT!

Not a bad chair but not right for those that are bigger.
Color: Black Rhythm, Color: Black Rhythm
I was very hopeful for this chair. It has good build quality. It's made of good material. Unfortunately, I am an older bigger guy. And I'm dealing with a couple issues. One after sitting in the chair for a bit it causes pain on the back side of my hip right at the transfer into the legs. A lot of chairs have this problem. I've been looking for one that doesn't for a while which is why I got into the ergonomic chairs. The mechanism that extends the actual base of the seat out so that you have more of a sitting area has a release and pole mechanism both on the left and right side of the seat pan. It is a hard point and it digs into my legs. The armrests were never designed for someone my size. I have them set to the highest point and the widest point and they barely work. If they could go up a little bit higher it would be more comfortable. And with how they're set for the width, I can barely fit in the chair. They are touching my sides. It might just be the one that I got but the chair sits slightly forward so it's tilted down just a little bit. This makes it so that as you're sitting in the chair, you're sliding a little bit when you just do slight adjustments and you don't feel quite comfortable. Which causes you to move even more. Overall nice chair but not for me. Honestly, it was one of the easiest chairs to assemble. But like I said, unfortunately not right for me
