Frequently Asked Questions

Are gaming chairs under $100 any good?

Yes, if you choose carefully. Budget gaming chairs can offer adjustable armrests, a reclining backrest and a decent foam seat. Look for a steel frame, a class 3 or 4 gas lift and a weight rating that suits you. Expect less lumbar support and shorter warranties than premium models.

What is the difference between a gaming chair and an office chair?

Gaming chairs use a racing-style bucket seat with high backs, bolsters and wide recline. Office chairs focus on ergonomics such as adjustable lumbar support, seat depth and breathable mesh. Many people with long work days prefer a good ergonomic office chair; gamers who want style and recline often prefer a gaming chair.

How do you pick the right chair for back pain?

Prioritise adjustable lumbar support, seat height and depth, and armrests that let your shoulders relax. Make sure your feet sit flat on the floor and your knees are about level with your hips. Our lumbar-support guides compare chairs that do this well.

What weight capacity should I look for?

Choose a chair rated at least 50 lb above your body weight. Standard chairs are typically rated for 250 to 275 lb, while big and tall models handle 300 to 400 lb with wider seats and reinforced bases.
