Customer Ratings & Reviews

Very comfortable chair, had my eyes set on a for awhile. Nicely stitched & cushioned

I picked this up for my son, to replace his GT Racing seat. I say seat because compared to the AK Racing "Chair" the GT is just a seat or lets say a block of wood, lol. My sons keeps using words like Luxury and he is spoiled. We have had it since Xmas of 2020, no wear and tear that is visible to me at all. Shocking Surprised, I know he is rough on it.

I’m 5’10” 225lbs and this chair is comfortable for long gaming sessions. My only critique is I wish it had a foot rest that folds out like my old chair. Other than that great premium gaming throne at a premium price but hey your worth it.

This chair looks and feels amazing. I could sleep in this chair all day. I love the rock it lock it feature. The only bad thing about this chair is the price. If you can buy this chair at a discount, i would definitely buy it.

My fiancé loves this chair! It was a perfect Christmas present! He said it’s super comfortable while he’s at his PC! Putting it together was simple as well!

I’m glad I read the reviews this chair is definitely amazing and priceless thanks on the fast delivery facts 100. Easy to put together too.

Great product happy with the price good comunicación with Best Buy employees to pick up my items

I just got this chair 2 weeks ago and I don't have one bad thing to say. It went together very easily and is well built. My husband worked for an office supply co. while in school and has put hundreds of chairs together. This one surprised him, he said it was one of the best he had seen. Extremely well built and solid, stable and so comfortable. It has an adjustable lumbar cushion that is a game changer for me. It supports my mid back even when I am sitting forward. I am not a gamer I am a digital photo editor and spend long hours and often full days in my chair finishing projects. This is my 3rd chair in 4 years. I don't know why I didn't think of a gaming chair earlier. I got a great deal on it, but is worth full price. I can get up from my work now and not be in agonizing back pain. It has a large seat for wider hips and can hold up to 330 lbs. Has adjustable arms, seat height and neck pillow to customize for anyone using it. I often move it to the TV room to watch movies and sketch-it has sturdy wheels and moves easily. I highly recommend this chair for anyone who spends long hours gaming, or working at a computer! Save your back buy a GOOD chair!

[Employee of bestbuy] Beautiful chair. Very firm and feels high end. Great lumbar support. Only two things i have issues with and they’re minor, are that one the instructions are not specific for this chair. It’s generic for all thr AK Racing chairs. Wasnt much of a problem but it wasnt as clear for someone that hasn’t assembled a chair before. Secondly the headrest pillow doesnt adjust that well. Other than that im happy with it.

I got this chair during the sale and I can say it is 100% worth every penny. It’s extremely comfortable and the leather is very soft. The lower back pillow provides great support. I have been working from home and sitting in this chair for about 10 hours every day and and It has been excellent. It reclines well and has so many adjustable pieces. I definitely recommend!

I got this on sale, and man, I wish I had purchased this chair way sooner. I work from home, so I am in it for 8-10 hours a day for work and then some more for gaming on my computer, and it is extremely comfortable. The lumbar pillow has really helped my posture and most of my back pain is gone now that I use this chair. It is also extremely easy to assemble, and it is very well built. I will be using this chair for many years to come. One of the best purchases I have made! Other than the fact that this is comfortable to sit in for an entire day, day after day, my favorite thing about this chair is how well built it is and how easy it was to put together. Took 10 minutes to assemble as it comes in basically 4 parts and the tools need to assemble it are included. I don't know if it helps to know, but I am 6 feet tall and on the slim side. If you work from home, or spend a lot of time in a chair, I highly recommend this chair for both its comfort and its high quality.

I bought this chair for my husband as an early birthday present. He has back issues and is on the computer a lot. His old one didn’t provide the lumbar support he needed and made his back issues worse. After doing quite a bit of research, I decided on this chair and he loves it. The contours help with his posture and the lower pillow provides great lumbar support. The upper pillow helps with his neck as well and it is comfortable. According to him it has helped quite a bit. He gets a kick out of the ability to recline the chair for when he watches movies. It was easy to put together as well. It was worth the extra cost to see my husband who is 6’0” and a gentle giant not in pain anymore.

Great build, very comfortable and easily adjustable. I like that it can go 180 degrees flat, you can actually put your feet up lying down and the chair won't topple. If you have a carpet then you may have to pull harder to move the chair. Overall, highly recommend this char.

I saw reviews for this chair on a few different websites, and a lot of them painted a poor picture with the wings on the seat being too tight, and causing pain while sitting. Still, I decided to go for it, and while I don't regret my decision, I probably would have chosen a different chair. I bought this after my job went fully virtual and I had to furnish a home office (thank you 2020). My existing desk chair was doing a number on my back, so I needed to get something that would be more comfortable. When it arrived, I was quite pleased with the materials of the chair, and how comfortable everything was EXCEPT the wings on the seat. They have hard metal bars inside that dig into your thighs and cause discomfort. For the record, I'm 6'0 and 170 lbs, so I'm definitely not on the bigger side. I can only imagine how uncomfortable this can get for someone bigger. Assembly of the chair is what kept me from returning it. I was too lazy to disassemble it, repackage it and box it up. I decided to give it a chance before committing to returning, and it was worth it. After using it for a couple of weeks, the chair softened up a lot, and the wings stopped being so harsh on my thighs. Additionally, the way it's build almost forces me into a better posture, which has done a lot to alleviate my back pain. I was unable to slump, sit sideways, cross legged, etc. For a lot of people, that's definitely a problem, but I needed it in order to fix my posture. A positive for some I imagine!

I just picked this up and I used it for a couple of hours. So far so good. It was heavier than I expected, but the overall build quality is great. Only time will tell. The padding is firm and the overall figment is great. I would suggest visiting the Akracing website before purchasing any of their chairs as each chair line has different measurement. As an example, the Master series Max is a bit larger meant for larger body types vs the Master series Premium. I would suggest this if buying any racing chair really.

I bought this gaming chair as a birthday present for my son. To be honest, the chair is great, very comfortable and good for a big kid. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because 1 piece came broken. I called Best Buy and asked the representative to help me, I asked if they could send me a replacement for the broken piece but she said they couldn't. They said I had to return it and order another one which I didn't do because the chair was out of stock in the color I picked for my son.

Never considered purchasing this type of chair due to the price but I wanted great comfort plus looks. This chair has met my expectations and if you are in the market it should be considered. The assembly was not difficult plus definitely quality materials chosen for this luxury chair. This chair will last many years! My friends gave it a big thumbs up.

It's a good gaming chair, very easy to put together. The seat is quite firm, some people might be turned off by this though. I wouldn't personally pay the full price for it but happy I got it on sale. Cons - I wish the armrest can be set so it does not move. - not for those with wider hips

Great chair and extremely comfortable. For the sale price, you really can't beat it. I sit in this for work and then after work to game and I have had 0 problems. Very high quality materials and I love the ability to lean back.

WOW. I am a writer/gamer and I sit for the bulk of my ten hour shifts at work. I also have rheumatoid arthritis and am sensitive to many plastics/cheap materials. Prior to this chair I was sitting in a standard wooden dining room table chair because our "good" computer chair was being used elsewhere. My back felt like I was slowly transforming into a gargoyle and I would crawl into bed at night with crippling back pain and sore hips. I had my doubts about this chair - because how great could it be? And for that price? Whooo baby ~ I could purchase lots of other things for those pretty pennies. You guys it's totally worth it. I am starry eyed!!! I picked it up on sale which was fantastic. Assembly was 27% frustrating ***disregard the instructions included and use the ones on the website***, but from the moment I sat back in this fine piece of upholstery, I was mighty, mighty impressed. Comfortable, adjustable, ergonomic. You can immediately feel the difference. I'm no 'princess and the pea' as I was squishing my fertility goddess hips into a wood ribcage of a chair, so maybe the fine details elude me when it comes to products like these. But honestly I couldn't be happier. I haven't had an insane gaming session yet so I'll update if needed, but I have to say it was absolutely worth it. Buy the chair - your body will thank you. And hey - you only get one of those. Best treat it right.
