Other similarities include steering wheels, lumbar support and seat upholstery for additional comfort and ergonomic play. All of them would be suitable Office chair also.

At least DXRacer was at the forefront that this gaming chair is suitable for people under 6 feet with a weight capacity of 225 pounds or less. It is not a suitable seat for large and large users. Still, I was able to get my 6-foot frame weighing over 225 pounds pretty well into it. This sturdy swivel chair is covered with a polyurethane synthetic leather over a metal frame with an inclination radius of 135 degrees and adjustable armrests. The high back chair itself weighs approximately 30 kg and comes with both an adjustable foam headrest pillow and a backrest pillow for the lumbar support pillow.

The DXRacer Drifting Series has a weight capacity of 220 pounds or less, so it’s not the best gaming chair for those who have a large and tall frame and need a little more space in their seat.

We asked our sample sitters which gaming chair they thought was the best gaming chair overall, and they almost unanimously agreed that it was the Secretlab Titan 2020 series. The Titan has a large backrest with a wide lumbar pillow and supports people who weigh up to 6 feet, 7 inches and 290 pounds. It also has style. This gaming armchair is not just a place to sit, it lets you sit back almost completely and the high-density foam pillow is generously dimensioned for a first-class gaming experience. The inner lumbar cushion is adjustable, as is the armrest. In fact, the armrests can be swung back and forth, retracted and extended, turned up and down, and slid wider and narrower for added convenience.
Secretlab is also planning special models that can currently be pre-ordered. They range from Batman to Game of Thrones themes (maybe not what you would want for an office chair, but who judges?) And raise the price by $ 30.
