(minimum to maximum): 47 - 54 cm | Maximum load: 124kgSharp lookLifetime warrantyLumbar support isn't idealIt can be hard to find a gaming
chair that always matches the uh, decor of your room
Racing stripes and loud color palettes might be perfect for some tastes, but sometimes a more subtle look may be the route to go
If your gaming area is the same location that you do your business work when you're at home, Respawn's Respawn-115 Racing Style Gaming Chair
It has the basic sculpt of traditional gaming chairs including lumbar support padding, reclining back and adjustable arms, but has an
exterior visage that works for offices, too
The only small gripe we have with the chair is that the lumbar support isn't connected to the chair in any way which means you'll need to
re-adjust it every time you leave your seat
Small problems aside, though, this is a fantastic-looking gaming chair for the more mature gaming audience.This product is only available in
the US at the time of this writing
