Go with a cheaper chair and one with a cushioned seat. The hard plastic of the edge of seat hurts your thighs and is uncushioned. Bad design. The head rest is also terribly designed. If you are not a petite person you will need to remove it.
Bought this as a gift for my brother who loves gaming; he said it is a huge step up from his last chair! The color in the photos doesn't do it justice; it's a really nice metallic deep red
