FIrst off, I snagged this pretty much based on price that incl a footrest and some "Feature". In this case... "Massage"
Issues:
There is a small hole about the size of my little fingernail in the PU Leather on the side of the chair, If my finger didnt find it as I was fumbling about during assembly, Id not have known it was there. Zipper separated in a small spot (maybe 1/2 cm) on the underside of the backrest. The plastic cuff slipped over the "legs" to hide the factory welds arrived installed, and cracked. None of these problems are really deal breakers for me. The small hole is hardly noticeable and up high enough that i dont think my weight will make it any larger, a little black epoxy glue will fix nicely if needed.
Instructions are vague, but assembly isnt difficult.
Its a good thing they send spare parts as Id needed to rely on them, the instructions indicate to use a screw to retain the footrest arms / its the small one in the spare parts section, I had to dip back into these again, as one of the armrest bolts threading was fouled and it would not turn in....
10 Min Verdict:
The chairs assembled, it took me maybe 30 min by myself, and minor issues aside, it seems... serviceable.
Its not exactly soft but its right out of the box, its ergonomics are suspect, the neck cushion is quite soft though, the lumbar cushion is not really, im not holding my breath on how well the USB powered massage function will work. Its a bonus on top of a cheap chair in my eyes. Price was the main motivating factor here.
Note:
For the "Big and Tall" crowd: I see loads of negative reviews on these style chairs across . For the most part, "Gaming" chairs are based on racing seats from cars. Racing seats are purpose built to be TIGHT so they keep you in place in turns and the like. The seat bottom is only about 15in wide between the bolsters. If youre "Tall" the chair will probably work fine. If youre "Big and Tall" you may not be comfortable. Some may find that they sit ON the seat bolsters, not BETWEEN them.
Verify condition before assembly.
