Not a follower of trends and could not/cannot justify spending tons of money on a trendy “gaming” chair. Now I get dropping hundreds on a commercial office chair for an actual job... For lounging and gaming at home that is insane. This works it won’t impress Ninja or Dr. Disrespect but they don’t impress me much either. Easy to assemble looks good feels solid... Had an odd Lavender herbal tea smell to it probably just cheap Chinese carcinogens. Who knows?
