Top 5 gaming chairs for true gamers

The versatility of the character of the "Lordly" chair Game Business GB-02 is displayed directly in the name of the model. Combining in one bottle a comfortable fit with many adjustment options and a laconic appearance without "flashy" colour inserts, the product fits well both in the work environment and in the home interior.

The points of support for the chair are five double rollers with nylon coating, which are attached to an aluminium crosspiece. The link between it and the seat is a reinforced gas elevator of the 3rd class and a MultiBlock deep swing mechanism with fixation in 5 positions. The load capacity of the chair is as much as 200 kg. A similar figure, but in centimeters, appears in the parameters of the maximum recommended height of the player.

The outside of the chair is covered with wear-resistant and easy-to-clean artificial leather. And the elastic and elastic Latex Effect foam material served as a filler for the model's seat — similar to what is used in the automotive industry. The back of the Barsky Game Business GB-02 has a slightly curved shape, which ensures proper body support. Its tilt is adjustable in the range from 90 ° to 180 ° with the possibility of fixing in any of the selected positions.

Another plus in the karma of the model is 4D armrests with soft pads. They can be "poked" back and forth, spread apart, shifted in or out, raised and lowered. The abundance of armrest adjustments caused small backlashes in the design, but nothing critical is seen in them. Of the disadvantages of the chair, there are also sometimes creaks in the place where the backrest docks with the seat and the absence of pads under the neck and lower back in the standard configuration. Otherwise, the Barsky Game Business GB-02 deserves close attention, at least for the reasons that the model costs relatively little money and provides a set of personal adjustments on a par with more famous flagships.

Maximum comfort, regardless of the time spent at the computer, is given by the Dxracer chair with the Boss OH/BF120 model index. You feel "like a boss" in it, and you don't want to get up from your seat at all, even after an hour-long marathon of virtual battles.

The chair, frankly speaking, scares with gigantic dimensions, and the model weighs almost 33 kg. There is definitely nothing for fragile girls to do in it, since the gaming chair is more tailored for tall users. It is offered to comfortably accommodate players with a height from 188 to 204 cm. People lower in the wide seat of the chair can easily "drown". The load that the Dxracer Boss OH/BF120 gas spring is able to "digest" reaches 200 kilograms at its peak.

Everything is in perfect order with the adjustments of the model: ergonomics thought out to the smallest detail allows you to adjust the fit purely for yourself, resorting to the options of tilting the backrest, swinging and flexible adjustment of 3D armrests. The backrest, by the way, is able to recline almost horizontally, as a result of which the chair is transformed into a kind of single bed with a ready-made pillow under the head (the headrest of the model is built-in). You won't be able to sleep on it, but for a rest between battles, a lying position will do just fine.

To achieve the correct fit, the user has the right to resort to the services of a complete pillow under the lower back. If it is not necessary, it will not be difficult to remove it. The model did not work out except with a swing mechanism — a simple Tilt is installed here, but with an adjustment of the rocking stiffness. On all other fronts, the Dxracer Boss OH/BF120 bypasses its closest rivals in the class, guaranteeing an uncompromising level of comfort in protracted "skating rinks", without exaggeration.

In the assortment of the young Cougar brand there are offers of gaming chairs for every taste and complexion of players. Users of high stature and large physique will have a powerful Armor Titan model built on a steel frame and upholstered in breathable eco-leather with a diamond-shaped pattern, which is diluted with bright orange inserts.

With its own weight of about 29 kg, the chair can withstand a load of 160 kg. Naturally, with such data, it a priori cannot be compact — the chair takes up a lot of space in the room, however, by the convenience of landing equal models can be counted on the fingers of one hand. What a 170° reclining backrest with a fixed position in any position is worth. In parallel with it, the seat tilt angle is subject to flexible fixation — in one of the five selected positions. It is not for nothing that the Cougar Armor Titan is armed with an advanced MultiBlock swing mechanism with a handle for setting the level of resistance to swinging.

The height of the chair is regulated by the forces of the 4th class gas lift, which provides a smooth rise and soft lowering of the seat. Complementing the overall picture of the 4D model are armrests, so called because of the support for changing positions forward-backward, left-right, height adjustment and angle of deviation. Another weighty argument in favor of the chair is the 5—end aluminium base with large wheels.

A lumbar pillow floating in height and a U-shaped neck pillow (in the image and likeness of travel pads) can be additionally attached to the back of the chair. And if the second one regularly performs the functions shouldered, then there are sometimes complaints about excessive rigidity on the lumbar support pillow. Players of a more modest build should pay attention to the younger brother of the model in the person of Cougar Armor S Price from 11 573 up to 14 617 ₴ — almost a similar chair with a more compact size and a slightly simpler swing mechanism.

AKRacing company is one of the world's leading manufacturers of gaming chairs. The crown of evolution and a role model for other players in this field is the ProX model.

The chair is based on a reinforced metal frame, which, paired with a gas elevator of the 4th class, can withstand a load of up to 150 kg both point—wise and in motion. A model has been created with an eye on players of a "larger than average" complexion: an obese gamer with a height of 170 to 200 cm can easily fit in a 60 cm wide seat.

The AKRacing ProX adjustment system provides the possibility of setting the height of the seat position (42-50 cm), its angle of inclination in the horizontal plane (within 12 °), as well as reclining the backrest in the prone position. The armrests, in turn, change positions along three axes. The only "but" is a simple Tilt swing mechanism, although a model of such a high class would like to see a more functional multiblock on board.

In matters of ergonomics, quality of materials and thoroughness of assembly, AKRacing ProX is ahead of the whole planet. Amenities for long gatherings in a chair are added afterward with removable pads under the neck and lower back. Whether to use them or not is a matter of individual user preferences. For those who are in search of a spacious gaming chair, the chair will become a faithful companion in long gaming sessions, allowing you not to lose concentration and maintain the hardness of the sight after hours of spending time in virtual worlds.

Playseat L33T is a real pro from the squad of gaming chairs, who knows a lot about a comfortable fit. The model is addressed to avid gamers who are eager to squeeze the maximum out of the gameplay. And for this, as you know, you need a good help in the form of a convenient place for the fifth point, lower back and back in general.

The metal frame of the chair rests on a high-strength plastic base capable of withstanding a load of up to 120 kg. The rays of the five-pointed crosspiece are connected by a single metal rim, on which you can put your feet. This trait in appearance distinguishes the model against the background of colleagues in the gaming workshop of computer chairs.

Everything and everything is subject to adjustment in the design of the Playseat L33T: starting from the position of the backrest and ending with the adaptation of the position of the armrests to individual user preferences. Especially useful in the assets of the model is a MultiBlock type mechanism with support for fixing the seat angle, as well as smooth and soft rocking movements. In addition, the chair has a backrest that unfolds into a completely horizontal position for relaxing at a computer desk or workplace.

As the outer upholstery of the chair, a leather substitute is used mainly in black tones with coloured inserts in the area of the backrest and seat. Inside the chair, foam of a special formulation is found — soft enough to sit for several hours in a row, and at the same time dense enough to keep its shape. Perhaps the only serious drawback of the model is the high cost. But the chair impresses with a winning combination of high-class assembly and an abundance of adjustments, fully working out every penny spent.
