    For how inexpensive it is, it is good. Would be nice if the recline could go looser

    Mainly purchased for my sons setup but I occasionally use it for my racing simulator. There is some creaking when leaning back, but it is not a significant issue as I do not frequently rock and forth.

      That's a great dual-purpose chair! We're glad it's working well for your son's setup and that you occasionally enjoy it for your racing simulator. We appreciate your honest feedback about the creaking when leaning back. It's helpful to know it's not a significant issue for you since you don't frequently rock back and forth. We'll take that feedback into consideration as we continue to refine our products. Thanks for sharing your experience! - Carl | Insignia Products BBY-ExBrand_Insignia

    Stiff. Small. Not "gaming chair" dimensions in any conceivable way. Anyone over 5'6 will find their upper thighs longer than the base of the chair. There were hard surfaces everywhere which were very uncomfortable. Cave people sat in better. Actually some areas felt completely unpadded, in others the padding felt like cardboard and actually popped a bit when squeezed. Cheapness everywhere. Given the build, I would have returned it as a $50 crappy offbrand product. For something approaching $200 it's inconceivably bad. 2 stars because they took the return easily.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

      We appreciate you taking the time to provide feedback on your experience. It's disheartening to hear that the gaming chair fell short of your expectations in terms of comfort and build quality. Your detailed insights will be helpful for others considering a similar purchase. We're glad to hear that the return process was smooth for you. If you have any further questions or need assistance in the future, please don't hesitate to reach out.

    This is a great entry level gaming chair at a fraction of the price of others. I purchased it for my son to use while playin flight simulator, and he is a huge fan.
