The title might seem facetious but in fact chairs for a den or gaming room that are specifically for use during long computer games are not that easy to find unless you want to spend a lot of money on office equipment for a den or gaming room. This chair has the stuff. It doesn't have cheap components that break off the minute someone thumps down into the thing. There is no ostentation just solid construction. We haven't had it a full year yet but it seems to be a good item so far.
