Things To Look For In Gaming Chairs
For every gamer, gaming chair is as famous as their gaming rig. If you’ve been looking to buy a new gaming chair, you must know what features to look for. The first thing to know that unlike ordinary chairs, gaming chairs is specially designed chairs for gamers. Since players sit on the computer for many hours a day, the need a chair that doesn’t make them feel tired and fatigued. Playing games on regular chairs but these will make them feel tired after a while. This is where gaming chairs come in handy. Though they look similar to a regular chair, there are several differences between the two. In other words, these speakers are specially optimized for gamers. Here is a list of some of the best gaming chairs available in the market today:
1. X Rocker Pro Series Pedestal
Though not the prettiest head around, it makes you think that it is designed for a lazy person. In essence, this is exactly what a gaming chair is all about. Since the gamer is unlikely to move around too much while gaming, the X Rocker Pro ensures that they don’t lose concentration while driving. The chair has extra covering with soft, comfortable cushions from the seat to armrests. The spring mechanism makes for an extremely safe and comfortable place. Also, it has provision for inbuilt stereo, wireless transmitters and extra padding for feet placement.
2. Boomchair Sky Lounger
It is the second chair in our ranking as its performance, popularity and features demand just that. The Boomchair is designed to provide great comfort to gamers in every possible way. For this reason, the chair comes equipped with a four-inch powerful subwoofer and two-way speakers. The sound system is designed in a way that it’ll make your head a prominent part of your gaming experience along with your gaming rig. If you feel bored, you can swap in your portable MP3 player and have fun to play while listening to music. Regarding comfort, the chair has extra cushions for head placement, armrests and feet placement.
3. Vertagear Racing SL4000
This cute little chair packs quite a punch and gamers love for good reasons. The Vertagear SL 4000 series is designed as a gamer’s delight. In fact, you wouldn’t feel fatigued while playing games at all. Though it looks like an ordinary office chair at first, this is due to efficient use of cushions at only places where it matters most. For instance, gamers use the headrest, the armrest, and the feet rest more than anything in a chair. This is where Vertagear scores enough points over its contemporaries. Efficient use of soft cushions makes it lightweight and easy to move. Furthermore, the chair has some trademark features not found in other gaming chairs. For example, gamers can tilt the Vertagear in either direction without damaging it. In fact, you can even lock the head into their favorite position. This makes you feel relaxed while gaming as you need not move around much.
4. Cohesion XP 8.1 Gaming Chair
Even a cursory look at this chair makes you think that it means business. The chair boasts no fancy looks or elegant design. But, it scores quite heavily where it matters. For example, the chair has a rather placid look for thick cushions placed from head to toe. Sounds boring, right? Not quite, this straightforward and dull looking chair is extremely comfortable and has inbuilt provisions for sound and audio devices. The sound system features two speakers and an audio system that you can customize according to your need. The chair is relaxing, produces high-quality stereo sound and gives you an excellent gaming experience.
Buying a great comfy chair to go along well with your gaming rig can be difficult, but if you identify your style of gaming, you’d know what to look for in a gaming chair. Hopefully, this list will help you buy the best chair for your gaming.
They look comfy!
I have a GT Omega that I paid around $250 for, and I would have to say that I paid about $100 to much. Very hard on the butt, so not really good for long gaming sessions.
So, I’m actually looking for a good desk chair that allows to me to comfortably game and code. The one I’m sitting on at the moment is so generic. I could also use one that exercises for me as well! :p
I would love to have a gaming chair. They sound so comfortable. I love being relaxed doing this. I will be checking these out to buy one. Thank you so much for sharing
This is great. I need one, and will be going shopping with this advice!
The Boomchair Sky Lounger looks awesome.
Looking forward to this arcticle, i currently have a chair from Ikea, it is quite comfortable but it’s getting old and the seat height adjuster is broken
Lots of chairs to choose from!
I need this…
Honestly speaking, a good gaming chair has more uses than gaming. As a therapist – shiatsuka – what I see most of the time is people with back pain. Heck, after a day of work, even I have them.
And that’s where gaming technology saves the day: these chairs are purposefully designed in order to alleviate the efforts on our columna oblongata. They’re better and cheaper than those sold for health purposes, and for offices (ok, but still, we know we’ll end up with crappy ones there…).
Just need a light making-up and done, a beautiful AND functional office chair.
And they’re great at home after work for some stress releasing.
Well, the only thing better than a gaming chair you’ll find at home is…….. your bed.
So invest in one, if possible. If not, a good set of pillows will do the trick, at least until you can buy one.
Hard to get comfortable in a nice chair after you burn a hole in your wallet!
My favourite chair is the “Boomchair Sky Lounger”.
These chairs are awesome, especially number one! I (as well as my dad and brothers) would have LOVED a chair like this as a kid, I come from a huge gamer family. My dad is a level designer of computer games. 🙂 I have 3 kids now and don’t game as often as I would like, but they’re getting older so I definitely need to invest in one (or 2) of these bad boys! Thanks for sharing!
Currently using a DXracer chair, but this will most likely help me choose a future replacement
The Vertagear Racing SL4000 looks great! Thanks for sharing.
Looking for a new gaming chair with lots of comfort! The X Rocker Pro with pedestal looks comfy!
Not just for gaming, those are ideal for almost everything, and great looking
interesting about gaming chairs
Ergonomic chair is very important.
Interesting article.
Good choice
Choosing the right chair is one of the most important decisions a gamer makes.
I would absolutely love to get this gaming chair for my son! He’d go crazy over it!
So many of the gaming chairs look practically identical (the office style chairs with the fluted sides) – is this really a better experience? I kind of just want a beanbag…
These look so nice!
You need a good chair!
These chairs look comfy
like the different chairs for the kids. I find if they are comfortable during play they complain less about aches and pains.
I see so many other “gaming” chairs with the fluted sides around. How do they compare?
well a lot of racing office chairs are the best for me, like the DXracer and now with a lot of brands
This would make a really sweet Christmas gift for my son.
I use the DXRacer R-series and fill happy when sitting on him! Good material as for gaming chair!
Right now there are some new brands like E-win or the MIRCO RS2 EXTREME RACING OFFICE CHAIR
They look comfortable
OK, yesterday I just saw an Italian new brand doing pretty nice chair! you can look at here: DIABLO X-PLAYER

Interessante muito bom

To tell you the truth I’ve never really looked into gaming chairs because I didn’t think they offered much more than a novelty look. I’ve been seeing them more and more this year in ads and in stores, so I guess there’s something more about them because they must be selling well. I would like to try out #2 The Boomchair. Reading about the cushions and sound system sort of changed my mind. It would be nice to “veg out” in!
I would love a new chair! Came back to look at the brands again
No mention of the yoga ball chair…
I have to get around to getting a gaming chair some time.
Look like a great gaming chair.
Looks comfy
It’s important to be comfortable when sitting or you can get back problems.
Great information I will use since I need gaming chair.
Great gaming chair
Choosing the right gaming chair for comfort
I had Vertagear 4000 for a couple of years, a great chair I can confirm. I have it replaced it just recently with the noble chairs epic. Very comfortable!! The price being a bit above the average gaming chair price, my health is worth it to me. I spend the little extra to get the real leather model, this won’t wear through for many years…
The more I look at the chairs the more I want one. Having everything within arm’s length sounds great! All I need now is a mini fridge by it and I’ll never have to get out of the chair!
Any chair would do right now for me. I broke two of my chairs and the wheel is coming off my current one.. I could use a gaming chair.
As a guy sitting on a chair as comfortable as a tree stump, I must say this looks like heaven. Love your site and the way you’re giving back to the community. Cheers
Thank you buddy!!
As a guy who sits on a chair as comfortable as a tree stump, these look like they come from heaven.
Much love guys.
Impressive looking chair I have to try out soon.
