AKRACING - Core Series EX Gaming Chair - Black/Blue

The weight limit for this chair is 330lbs, and I am definitely below that, however I do not fit in this chair. If you look at the picture you can see how the sides of the chair curl up, supposedly to cradle you in the seat. Well my legs went right where it curled up, and hence it was so painful to sit in this chair I couldn't stand it for longer than an hour or two. Make the seat flat, and this would be an amazing chair! I wish I could've tried this in-store and found this problem before buying it!!! Now I have to go through the trouble of a return. My average sized boyfriend (far less than 300lbs) tried the chair and barely fit himself. He complained that even though he fit he couldn't spread his legs or sit at an angle because of the curling up issue. They really just need to re-design the seat. However, to be fair, if you are a small-medium sized person this chair is well built, has very solid materials and soft but supportive padding, and had I fit in it I would be very happy with this purchase.

I bought this chair as my old one was getting worn (6 years old!) and the measurements on it seemed to be the same, plus it had the added benefit of the recline function. Once I got the chair - shipping was quick - it assembled pretty easily. The instructions for how the headrest goes on is terrible, and I just played around with different ways until I found one that was stable. My biggest disappointment is the chair width. The edges of the seat are sharply inclined up making it impossible to sit with your legs apart. The width of the seat should NOT have included the curved sides as that is not truly representational of the seat's width. Sitting this way for prolonged periods can be very uncomfortable for me. I don't want to deal with the hassle of a return on an item this size, and it's working for now so I'm going to just suck it up. Next time I'll try to find out if the $$$ is worth it or not. The cost of this chair without it having been on sale would certainly NOT have been worth it.

This chair is by no means a bad chair, however with the high end brand of DXRACER not to much more money I wish I had bought a dxracer instead. Some things I like about the chair are it was very easy to put together, it's well built, and it's decently comfortable. Some things I don't like about it are its cloth material so if you're sitting for long periods of time it gets really hot in the chair, the cloth material can get uncomfortable at times, it doesn't go low enough to the ground, the slightest push moves the arm rests, and it takes awhile to get to a comfortable spot. Now I'm not saying this chair is just awful in every way possible once you find a comfortable spot it is good. However with DXRACER being $100-$150 more expensive and a lot nicer of a chair its worth spending the extra money in my opinion. 3/5 from me. Nothing to terribly bad with this chair but just some small gripes that shouldn't happen in a $330 chair. Only would recommend this to a friend if they literally couldn't spend any more money.

I have been looking for quite some time at the “racing” style chairs, some with real leather, faux leather and even PVC. But this chair was exactly what I was looking for as it is covered with a durable cloth, heavy duty gas lift, swiveling arm rests and soft pillows. The pillows concerned me because most of the pictures that I have seen look like they are covered with a vinyl material. These pillows however are covered with cloth as well, they are adjustable and very comfortable. The seat cushion is fairly stiff at first, but I prefer it that way so as not to get quickly fatigued on soft foam, which will sag quickly as well. I am 5’11”, less than 220 lbs, and the seat is comfy yet hugs nicely. There is plenty of height adjustment for how tall my legs are, and of course the seat back reclines to a parallel degree. The list price coincides with the chair’s quality, but it is even better to grab it when it goes on sale. I had no problems with the assembly, all bolts and screws lined up perfectly. I have to say it is THE best office chair that I have ever purchased.

Let me start by saying that I am not a gamer, and did not purchase this chair for playing games, however I do work at a desk for extended periods of time, and thus far this chair is great. I have had decently priced chairs in the past and this one beats the other office chairs that I have had without a doubt. Lazy Boy desk chair do not offer the comfort or support that this chair offers. I am 6'2 approx 220 pounds and this chair fits me well, and the adjustable lumbar support is great - Now that I have it I do not know how I did without it. The chair took approx 30 minutes to setup without issue. The chair is a very solid chair, there is no wobble in it whatsoever. I will be interested to see how long it will remain this way. I will update this product as I continue to use it.

I had been using a cheap standard office chair before buying this chair, and I have to say the difference is like night and day. I suffer from sporadic back pain that has grown worse over time. This chair helps my posture and is so comfortable. I've been using this chair daily for well over a month now, and I must say I haven't had any back issues, when in the past with my other cheapo office chair I couldn't sit longer than 10 minutes without the pain starting. This chair is fully adjustable, and I love the lumbar support and the head rest. Very well thought-out design. I would recommend this chair for anyone who is just looking for a comfortable chair, whether for gaming, work or just casual PC use. It does go on sale fairly often so keep an eye out for sales.

My boyfriend spends most of the day on his PC gaming. He's been wanting one of these high quality gaming chairs for awhile now. We got it on sale as one of the deals of the day. This is sssooo much better than the craptastic, ancient hand-me-down office chair we had before. Of course its adjustable in just about every place/part that is on the chair. He would have a lot of body aches and pains (especially his back) from gaming all day in the old chair. That's all history now that he has this chair. Its definitely worth the regular on-sale price! These chairs are also built to last! But if we ever had to get another chair, its definitely going to be an AKRACING gaming chair!

Best chair hands down! Tried 2 other chairs and returned them before I found this one. Great comfort and able to truly recline 180 degrees, which is tough to find. Would not recommend for wide person, as there are cushions on either side the stick up and would be in one’s way. The arms are adjustable as well, but not padded on the top but you could buy that and add. Highly recommend this chair for long gaming runs, will hold up easily. You could crash right there too if too exhausted to get to a bed, lol.
