Misaligned chair
|Posted .Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.Features
Quality1 out of 5Value3 out of 5Ease of Use3 out of 5The screw wholes on the side of the chair are not lined up properly. fastening the back of the chair to the bottom of the chair leaves the back sitting at a crooked angle. I'm already dreading the the return process for this chair. The shipping weight is around 60 pounds and the large size of the package makes it extremely hard to pick up and move around. I'm sure this would be a good chair if it didn't have this one problem.

Premium chair that shines with it's quality
|Posted .Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.Features
Quality5 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5Pros mentioned:Comfort, PriceI used to own a cheap office chair that I bought off of Amazon and the base on that broke 6 months after I bought it. Been looking around for a good gaming chair that offered quality but at a reasonable price this chair is perfect. The comfortableness of the chair allows me to sit on it for 8+ hours a day without any discomfort. I love the reclining feature and the adjustable arms.

Very comfy!
|Posted .Owned for 1 week when reviewed.Features
Quality5 out of 5Value3 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5Pros mentioned:Comfort10 days of owning. I’ve been looking for a new gaming chair and I don’t like any with leather. I found the AKracing chair made with fabric. I was skeptical at first but as soon as I installed everything together (which was easy). I sat down and fell in love with everything. It’s perfect for my height (5’5). I couldn’t have made a better choice.

Great chair for everyday gamers or stay at wfh
|Posted .Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.Features
Quality5 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5Pros mentioned:ComfortI got this chair a few weeks ago and absolutely love it. It’s comfy and the erogonomic pillows are easy to adjust and effective. I also like that it adjusts to a higher height than lower end chairs as I hate angling my arms up to my y’all desk. I’m 6’1 with bad lower back problems and this chair allows me to stay seated as long as necessary for games and work. My cat also approves of the comfort level as I find him on it all the time and never on my old 70$ chair :P also I thought the setup was pretty dang easy

Up your gaming w/AKRacing
|Posted .Pros mentioned:ComfortBest 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.

Q: QuestionCan Best Buy assemble the chair for us if we do a pick-up?
Asked by Anonymous.
- A:Answer Don’t believe so; however, It’s really simple to put to together and the instructions are clear and precise, plus they give you the tools you need to do it. Took me about 15 minutes to put it together by myself. It’s also a lot easier to transport it in the box because depending on your car the chair while built won’t fit. All that said I’ll return to the original question, BestBuy most likely won’t build it prior to you picking it up.
