advice on a gamer chair
 

hey all

smash is coming out and i know im not going to leave the house for a wihle when its released

im 5'10 athletic build, but i have no idea about gaming chairs. i dont really need the speaker enchancements, just something that is on the ground, rockable, and comfortable with a headrest. i saw a few cheap ones for $15, but they said people 5"10 its very uncomfortable.


any advice please share links! i am excited for the game to come out and plan on getting the bundle pack and a mario and fox amibo for starters!

This is the one I have in my game room, but I don't have a pedestal and prefer to rock in it. I'm 6' and it's quite comfy.

thanks for the advice I will definitely look into this one! i just kept reading reviews and people say they dont fit int them. I dont mind spending an extra $50 or so for comfort... you get what you pay for usually!

i def like to rock as well so i'm looking to go your route

This is the one I've got, it's been amazing for me so far. I've had it for about three months. It leans back pretty far and is extremely comfortable.

Isn't that just a normal office chair?

Wow, I had no idea those office chairs cost that. I had a bunch of 'em, I used to get them for free when I did office moves. When a big place got downsized, you'd be amazed how much perfectly good office furniture they either scrapped or threw away. I'm sure they donated some of it but I used to have to bring hundreds of filing cabinets and those specific chairs to a scrap yard and watch 'em get ripped to hell with a claw. Knowing they cost like 200 bucks each or more, I'm kind of angry now.

I think I still have a couple in a storage locker. They're neat. I'm sure they're not as comfy as a dedicated gaming chair, but they always suited me fine. And they were free besides.

When I worked with the Rutgers crew they were sensible enough to re-sell all that stuff that wasn't damaged. I think they'd charge $50 for a brand-new one like that. Maybe $75, I forget. Crew always kept the best stuff, obviously. That's one perk of that job I do miss.

Got this one:

Found it new on Craig's list. I maybe spent $80?

Leo, just...what part of that long ass story is gonna help this guy find a gaming chair? Come on, now.

^Not a fan of anecdotes. Duly noted.

You kind of have the longest and most meandering anecdotes of anyone on the forum and unlike the rest of us you pretty much post everywhere. I swear to God I spend more time trying to scroll past your 15 paragraph posts on my phone than I do reading what anyone else has written.

hit up target get a xpro 2. i wish the head had more cushion but besides that its a great chair comfy and easy to use the surround sound w/ wii u.. just plug the headphone jack and we are good to go

anyone looking ot play in smash together add me! i aalready got one cool person from the drome here

Yes. Not a video game chair per se, but that's what I use it for primarily.
