The Arozzi Torretta XL gaming chair is a chair designed for bigger, taller people than most gaming chairs... So we put it in the hands of our bigger, taller host and let him put it through its paces.

Does anyone else feel weird/stupid buying a "gaming" chair? 

 

My position is really kind of a shame....My chair at school and the one at home suck, but I feel bad buying a new chair in either place (which i'll likely be throwing out in two~ years).

I need a super not restrictive chair. I practically sit in my current one every damn way possible except upside down(usually).. Therefore, my chairs break in like a week and a half sue to random unforseen pressure

Luke looked genuinely uncomfortable sitting in that chair. I'm glad for the review because just looking at it it seemed like a nice chair.

So I went to the website to see pricing out of pure curiosity, found nothing but a "Where to Buy" tab so I clicked on it and magically there is no way to get it into the US without importing it. It can only be sold in the UK, France, Germany, the Benelux nations and some obscure Eastern European nations as well as Sweden and Denmark. As an American I find this quite bothersome as they shipped it to a Canadian review site even though it can't be shipped to North America unless you import it from the UK. Eventually I found a price and deemed it not worth my $259.99 or £169.99.

As a big guy myself I'm glad you reviewed a chair designed for larger people...though, it's sad this chair didn't perform well. It's interesting you mentioned your car's seat a couple times...sometimes I think it would be great to just buy a car seat (an actual car seat not a racing seat like so many "gaming chairs" seem to do) and somehow turn it into a computer chair. A car chair would be perfect if you made all of the electronics work and mounted it on a solid base that could swivel...going to check this out

We've been doing this for a while :D

We do post to the forum earlier than YT, but today was especially early as I had a bit of time earlier than usual :P

While we're located in Canada, we're a review outfit with a global audience. Only 35-40% of our audience actually resides in North America, so it does make sense for non-NA brands to send us products from time to time.

Based on how much Luke complained, I doubt it. Luke is a pretty big guy too.

Spraying liquids luke? Really!? We all know what that means.

My chair isshit, but i dont want to spend more than my gpu, on a chair. I dont see why all these chairs are so expensive, i would like a chair the just has better wrist rests than mine, and a good height adjust, along with decent foam the wont wear out. If i could get a chair of the dx/maxnomic/arozzi style for a cheap $200 cad, i would, but i also need a phone/ motherboard/ speakers/mousepad/mouse/keyboard first
