Side arms very cheap metal broke
on March 21, 2026

I bought this chair and the side arm cracked under very little pressure, it was constructed of very cheap metal, and I wasn't able to find a place to get replacement parts.

Even thought this is a "gaming" chair I recently bought this for work. I needed something to support my back for long periods of time. I love that it is not too hard and that the arms lift up! this was a great purchase.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I got this chair on sale and don't regret it. It's very comfortable and sturdy with height adjustment, tilt, and flip-up arms. My only complaint is that the arms are pretty high up so the chair won't fit under the edge of my desk without lifting the arms up.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Good chair with 1 major flaw
on February 26, 2026
Posted by: Bonds25
Overall all this is a comfortable chair at a good price. However, it has one major flaw. The tilting back armrests are an excellent feature but the fact that they do not go all the way back completely annoying. Because of where they stop you'll have both of the ends digging into your arms or shoulders depending on how tall you are. Had the armrests gone back flus with the back of the chair, this chair would be 5 stars.
