    The chair was easy to assemble. After a few weeks of usage, it remains very comfortable. I would recommend it to anyone less than 6 feet tall.

    Ive owned several other gaming chairs in recent years, this is by far the most comfortable, especially for the price. Only drawback is that it doesnt recline.

    An absolutely lovely chair that was incredibly easy to assemble and is extremely comforting. Easily one of if not the best gaming chair I've ever had the pleasure of placing my buttocks in.

    Great value for a gaming chair. Slightly tricky to put together if you don’t have a second set of hands helping. Overall comfy chair and materials are higher quality than I thought they would be.

    The chair is comfortable and great built, only down fall is that it squeaks so loud that when your playing online with a headset your buddies think your farting. Reminder there’s a 15 day return policy on this item anything over that you need to go through warranty and that’s a nightmare.
