DXRacer chairs

Kirihuna

Does anyone own one of these? What are the opinions on them?

 

I hear they're really comfortable, but I don't really know what model to get. I'm rather tall (6'), so I was guessing the model R or M.

I've seen the F series everywhere in E-Sports, in streams, and it's the most popular.

 

What's the consensus? Worth it if you have the money?

They're way too wide. Unless you're fat they offer no real support. Get a real chair instead, alternatively build your own from a proper seat (I suggest OMP or Recaro, second hand ones can usually be picked up for cheap).

I've owned the F01 for almost 2 years with no complaints. I haven't had a more comfortable chair, but then again, I haven't tried those $800 chairs people say you're supposed to buy because we're all millionaires here.

 

I can't speak for its durability, more expensive chairs might last longer but mine is still like new and like I said in a previous thread, it's comfy enough that I don't ever really think about it. Plus it looks good and geeky the way I like it.

 

Also I'm not fat and I don't know what "support" the guy above is referring to. Its width is irrelevant, I sit in the middle of it and my ass and back are perfectly supported by it. It doesn't have anything that "real" chairs don't, it just has extra bells and whistles that are admittedly useless but don't take away from the fact that the chair is a chair.
