DXRacer Max Series Chair

[Echodamus]

I figured I might was well do this review because as I was looking for what office chair to buy to replace my old one I saw that there was precious little in the way of reviews for them. It makes sense, the market is fairly small for nice office/gaming chairs, but I figure this might help someone else out down the road. 

 

As the title says, this review is for the DX Racer Max series chair, specifically this one. It was one of their more subtle designs, which is what I was looking for, but they offer both sportier looking chairs as well as more professional looking ones as well. Over all I am impressed with the chair and its comfort level, it fits me very nicely and it could probably fit just about everyone. That being said, this is what I specifically like and dislike about it. 

 

What I like: First off, everything is adjustable. The arm rests alone can be narrowed or widened, the can be raised or lowered (by a considerable amount), and they and swiveled around at any angle.The chair itself is wide enough to fit me comfortably with extra room, which as a big guy is nice, and its tall enough to catch my head when I lean back, so I can be extra lazy. It rolls and spins very well, it has a good amount of friction to it so I don't go flying at the twitch of my leg. The stitching and construction is nice, nothing about of place or mis-stitched. The build quality is nice, I don't feel like it will fall apart on me any time soon. The wheels also lock, which is a nice feature too. 

 

What I dislike: These are all fairly minor complaints, but should still be addressed. While this shipping was fast (2 days from order to being at my door), the chair could not have been shipped more dissembled than what it was. The assembly wasn't hard, but it was a bit annoying. The 'rubber' foot rests on the base of the chair are just plastic, there is no rubber, its not that big of a deal I just hate false advertising. The legs themselves are really aren't long enough to rest my feet on anyways, which I would like to do, but that is just really minor thing. I would also like it to be able to recline more, and do so more easily. While the tension can be adjusted, at its lightest setting it still won't stay reclined unless I am pushing with my leg to do so. 

 

Final thoughts: I would absolutely recommend this chair to just about anyone. All of my complaints have been minor and the quality and comfort of this chair greatly outweighs its shortcomings. For the geek/nerd who has it all, this is something that is worth the money and will greatly improve their experience at their computer. If you have any questions, or find anywhere in the review where I went full derp, let me know. Thank you all for reading, and remember, always praise GabeN. 

 

Also: Linus, you should totally do a review of this chair and compare it to others, my ass has only been able to experience so many chairs in its lifetime.

Got mine from Needforseat in GErmany, also branded DXracer. It's the single best thing I ever bought considering how much use it gets.

I was going to get one, but ended up getting one quite similar from ebay for 1/4 of the price (90$)

 

It's leather, metal legs and arms.  Even if it breaks I can always buy 3 more before it'd be equal to price of the dxracer.
