So are these cheaper dx racer chairs worth it.

[Thebman712]

so for a while i have wanted a good chair for gaming and recently i have started experiencing wrist pains, mostly in my right arm.

 

so this leads me to believe that even though i sit as correctly as possible in this chair, it just is not good enough, and i know know that for sure (also where should my keyboard be, more centered with me or my left hand)

 

OK ON THE THE CHAIR you say.

 

so these dx racer chairs have some expensive, and cheapish options of the OH/FE08/NR (it appears that this is a good model on sale) http://www.dxracer.ca/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=OHFE08NR&CartID=1

 

 

so for the 329 that it is (about 350 final with tax and shipping) is it a good option, or is there something else that is a better option for pc and console gaming and regular desk use

No chair is worth $300 imho.

 

Go to ikea, sit in all the chairs, and buy what you think is most comfortable.

Pree much this.  Just because everyone likes these chairs (aren't saying they aren't worth it) doesn't mean you have to pay the large price.  I got my chair for $100 at Costco and have been happy since with it.

I call BS on this, I tried those damn things and I ended up with the DXracer Master yeah it cost more but they are better then those ikea chairs.

Comfortable or even ergonomic Chairs have a price tag, that's just how it is. It's your body take care of it.

Dx racer and similar chair have under 300 chairs that are good. The 300 are more towards taller and heavier people like Luke.

The chair linus did a review on seems to be a better option then Dx.

I will be reviewing the F series from DX Racer soon.

no, i did that with my last chair, it now fell appart, does not get high enough and the arm rests are too low, and the build quality is bad and my back hurts too

I have a dxracer and a nice high backed office chair is better.  And likely less expensive.

I just bought a DXRacer F-Series chair, I'm waiting on the shipping to get here since it was on sale and came with Free Shipping from the DXRacer Canadian site. Overall after researching people say that the chair is extremely comfortable but many people have stated that it is extremely uncomfortable for the first few days if you're not used to sitting straight. The other common complaint seems to be the footrests which are solid plastic which is different then the rest of the chair and not premium feeling whatsoever, in addition to that the other common complaint are the arm rests being sold plastic but due to their shape this shouldn't matter a huge amount. 

The way I look at it I'm investing in this chair for the next 5 years, I've only ever had chairs from Walmart and it was either a DXRacer, Maxnomic Casual Sport, Herman Miller Aeron or a much more expensive Steelcase chair, out of all of the options I went with a DXRacer because the amount of videos I've seen on it all commonly list no issues with discomfort and only mention build quality of the footrests with a lot of people stating that after a few days of usage their back pain was diminished by a great amount.

I'll provide an actual review when it gets here.

Okay so as a little update I got my DXRacer today and it's all built and I'm currently sitting in and and have just now noticed how terrible my posture was for the last several years while using cheap walmart chairs, I have to admit sitting up is causing some initial backpain but from what I have heard from other owners of decent chairs once your back / body gets used to sitting correctly you should be fine. For shits and giggles I tried to sit in my old chair after an hour of sitting in my DXRacer and I cannot for the life of me understand how I sat in it for as long as I did and am throwing it out ASAP.
