BEST GAMING CHAIRS

When shopping for a good gaming chair there are a few things to consider. The first is comfort, so make sure that the chair provides adequate support for your body. Ideally a gaming chair should have adjustable lumbar support, headrest and armrests, on top of adjustable seat height, tilt angle, and recline.

The second thing to check is the material it’s filled with. Good gaming chairs are typically filled with: high density sponge, high density foam, or memory foam (ordered by increasing price/quality):

• High density sponge fillings provide good comfort at an affordable price, but tend to wear out relatively fast compared to higher quality materials.
• High density foam provides excellent support and cushioning for your back, is less soft than sponge and also has better durability.
• Memory foam conforms to your body shape and thus provides excellent support and cushioning, ideal for prolonged gaming sessions. It’s a durable material and retains its shape over time. However, memory foam is pricey and can also get quite hot after extended use.

Finally, make sure that your gaming chair meets safety standards, i.e. that the gas cylinder (used to lift the chair) can withstand high pressure and heavy loads over extended periods of time without failure.

Below is a list of what we consider some of the best gaming chairs ordered by increasing price (prices are in US$ and may vary depending on current promotions and availability). Please make sure that you also check our regularly updated News & Deals section for limited-time offers.
