Top 10 gaming chair manufacturers
The best inexpensive gaming chairs: budget up to 20,000 rubles.
4 Arozzi
Country: USA
Rating (2022): 4.6
Not the most affordable representative of the budget segment of gaming computer chairs, but having a rather interesting range of products. There are soft chairs of a flat profile, which in black will look harmonious even in a strict office, and very bright buckets of all colors of the rainbow. You can also choose the upholstery material: fabric, artificial leather or its combination with textiles. The latter option is more difficult to clean, but it is more pleasant to sit on it. As a filler, the usual foam rubber, the number of adjustments corresponds to the class, and metal is used as a carrier material. It sounds more reliable, and it weighs a lot, but the declared maximum load for available models is most often no higher than 95 kg. Need more, take the Torretta series, which holds up to 140 kg and has a wider seat. In general, there are no serious complaints about the quality of Arozzi chairs, judging by user reviews.
3 TetChair
Country: China
Rating (2022): 4.6
A well-known Chinese manufacturer of affordable gaming chairs. The range is quite large, but there are only about a dozen really high-quality chairs in the budget segment. However, even this diversity pleases. You can find very budget models that differ only in bright upholstery colors, and real buckets, the likes of which you could see at eSports events. The main advantage of TetChair is its affordable price. A simple chair can be purchased for 7 thousand rubles, and a “full stuffing” will cost only 13-15 thousand.
According to the price tag, the parameters also differ. There are models with textile, leather and combined upholstery, height adjustment and a rolling mechanism are available in almost all chairs. In the more advanced ones, you will also find the adjustment of the backrest, armrests and a couple of pillows for the lower back and neck. In general, you can choose a model for every taste, but, unfortunately, the country of production leaves its mark. In the reviews, users complain about the appearance of squeaks, unwinding armrests and other unpleasant little things that you can fix yourself.
2 Bureaucrat
Country: Russia
Rating (2022): 4.7
The second position of the rating can be given without a twinge of conscience to the notorious domestic manufacturer. The company began to deal with gaming chairs relatively recently, but it can already offer dozens of different models of good quality. The price tag is appropriate - from 7 thousand for the simplest model. There are no complaints about the quality, because according to the reviews, everything is assembled reliably, does not hang out and does not interfere with excessive creakiness.
The lineup pleases with variety.You can find inexpensive chairs with a discreet design that will not stand out in the office, as well as catchy buckets with all possible adjustments, which will provide the maximum level of comfort, especially during long streams. In most cases, faux leather is used in the upholstery, but if desired, you can find a model with a full textile lining. All chairs are designed for a load of at least 120 kg. There are models with an all-metal frame and crosspiece, so that you can be as calm as possible for reliability.
1 AeroCool
Country: Taiwan
Rating (2022): 4.8
AeroCool is familiar to many enthusiasts for its cooling systems, cases and other components for PCs, but it also has gaming chairs in its range. In the budget segment, they are usually more civil, with minimally pronounced lateral support, without pillows, with rigidly fixed, but very soft, comfortable armrests. There are few adjustments here - only the rigidity of the swing mechanism is adjusted. Slightly more expensive models are closer to the class leaders. There is already a deep "bucket", pillows under the waist and neck. The latter has the shape of a travel pillow, so you can even take a comfortable nap in the chair. Everything you can imagine is regulated. The upholstery material in all cases is artificial leather. Nylon cross. The view may raise doubts about reliability, but the "carrying capacity" of such a solution is 130-150 kg! The undoubted advantages of AeroCool chairs include their high prevalence - you can buy them in a huge number of stores.
The best gaming chairs in the middle price segment: budget up to 35,000 rubles.
3 Cougar
Country: Germany
Rating (2022): 4.6
Cougar is known as a manufacturer of computer peripherals for gamers. There are also enough armchairs in the assortment, and they definitely deserve attention. Most of the models are made in the form of buckets with a two-tone color. The main visual differences are the presence of diamond stitching and options with a wider seat (56 cm vs. 50 cm). There is no doubt about the reliability of the design - the frame, cross and most other elements are made of metal. The maximum load is 120 kg. The polyurethane foam core is covered with faux leather upholstery and the casters are semi-soft, allowing them to make slightly less noise on hard floors than plastic competitors.
The set of adjustments is generally similar to competitors, however, their range is somewhat smaller on the younger Cougar Armor series. There are pillows for the lumbar and neck support. Among the shortcomings, users note only the quickly disappearing smell of leather and creaking, which can be easily eliminated with any lubricant on their own.
2 TESORO
Country: USA
Rating (2022): 4.7
The second place in the category of mid-price gaming chairs is still occupied by the manufacturer of gaming peripherals, which is not very popular in our country - TESORO. The Americans produce quite restrained, as for the gaming industry, armchairs. To draw an analogy: competitors are flashy sports cars that scream their nature, while TESORO is a modest-looking family sedan from Germany ... under the hood with incredible power.Almost all models of the manufacturer are made in practical black, although there are options with a small number of colored elements - no pretentiousness. Material - artificial leather. Due to the puffy shapes and the corporate pattern, it looks great. Pillows under the lower back and neck are also massive - leaning on them you relax completely. It remains only to recline the back 180 degrees and you can sleep. Moreover, the design allows you to do this - everywhere there is metal, the mass of the chair is 25 kg - there is no doubt about reliability. Of the interesting features, it is worth noting the advanced multi-block rolling mechanism - it is both more reliable and more customization options.
1 ThunderX3
Country: Taiwan
Rating (2022): 4.8
ThunderX3 is a sub-brand of AeroCool that produces more "premium" products. They also include computer chairs. The main feature is a large selection of shapes, colors and patterns. There are traditionally bright buckets, wide seats with a futuristic look, models that mix elegance, luxury and e-sports. The materials are the same as most competitors - artificial leather + polyurethane. The supporting frame is either plastic or metal. Regardless of this, the maximum load is 150 kg. Gamers in the reviews do not report any problems with reliability. In conclusion, we say that an extensive assortment is not the only advantage. ThunderX3 also deserves credit for having a fairly extensive sales network - you can buy a chair in a large number of stores.
Best Premium Gaming Chairs
3 Vertagear
Country: USA
Rating (2022): 4.6
A sedentary lifestyle has brought many problems to people. One of them is being overweight. As you can already understand, most gaming chairs have a bucket shape, which makes it uncomfortable for obese people to sit in them. Vertagear decided to take care of this category of players. Of course, this is not directly mentioned, but the permissible load of 150 or even 200 kg for some models and a wider seat (53-55 cm) speak for themselves. And visually, the chairs look more massive than those of competitors due to the larger volume of the filler. If we draw an analogy – these are chairs from American muscle cars, while most of the other models are taken from Italian supercars.
The diversity of design pleases: you can find all sorts of color combinations, including a rather bold white and pink or a strict matte black. There are also special series for fans of various eSports teams and manufacturers of computer peripherals. However, there is also a negative nuance - recently, due to lost competition, the volume of deliveries of this company to the Russian market has decreased, so there may be a shortage in stores from time to time.
2 AKRACING
Country: China
Rating (2022): 4.8
AKRACING products are at the crossroads between the mid-budget and premium segments. The average cost of models is from 30 thousand rubles, but the choice, unfortunately, is quite modest - about 5-7 models at the time of fresh delivery. The design of all brand seats is inspired by racing cars. Buckets are deep, with developed lateral support - it envelops its owner, so it is very comfortable to sit. The material is always artificial or genuine leather. Filler - polyurethane foam.The supporting structure in all models is made of metal, which makes the structure reliable and durable - it can withstand up to 150 kg. But the number of adjustments for some models does not always correspond to the class, for example, the armrests are adjusted only in height. Of course, all other charms, such as the rocking mechanism, folding backrest, gas lift, etc. are present.
1 DXRacer
Country: USA
Rating (2022): 4.9
It would be wrong not to include this manufacturer in the rating, because DXRacer once set the fashion for gaming computer chairs, becoming almost a cult brand. It is for this reason that DXRacer is very often used by esportsmen at the biggest tournaments. The range is one of the largest in the world, if we evaluate only the premium segment. At the moment, more than 20 models of different shapes, colors and prices are sold in Russia. There is even a special version for Russia: with the national flag and a bear pattern! The spread in cost is very large - from 18 to about 75 thousand rubles.
Artificial leather is almost always used as upholstery, although there are models with its natural counterpart. The manufacturer claims that you can sit in their chairs for up to 16 hours without any fatigue. Metal became the basis of the design, which made it possible to increase the maximum allowable load for some models to 200 kg. It is also worth noting a huge number of adjustments - even the distance between the armrests is customizable. DXRacer chairs can be recommended to people who are willing to overpay for the highest quality and reliability.
