FAQs
- Gaming chair or ergonomic office chair?
- Racing-style gaming chairs prioritise fixed bucket seating and deep recline; ergonomic office chairs prioritise adjustable lumbar, seat depth and breathable mesh. For long working days the adjustability usually matters more than the styling.
- What weight and height ratings should I check?
- Chairs state a maximum user weight (commonly 100–150kg) and suit a height range via seat-height adjustment. Both are in the specification — worth checking before buying on looks.
- Is PU leather durable?
- PU (faux leather) is easy to wipe down but can peel after a few years of heavy use; fabric and mesh trade easy cleaning for better breathability and longevity. Real leather is rare below the premium tier.
