The most-mentioned office-chair brand wasn't the first comparative choice.

In Recoscope's November fifth snapshot, Branch appeared in eleven of twelve usable answers. Steelcase appeared in nine.

But all four comparative answers placed Steelcase first and Herman Miller second. None placed Branch first.

Ask for an office chair under four hundred dollars, and Branch appeared in all four budget answers. Steelcase appeared in just one, as a refurbished alternative.

These are captured mentions, not verified prices.

For brand owners, showing up often, showing up for a budget question, and being ranked first are different measures. Track them separately.

Captured answers do not establish product quality.
