Gaming/Programming chair for a big guy.

HeftyNugget

Okay, so my uncle is a big guy.. he's about 6.5 feet tall, around ~250lbs.. a well-built man.

He is a passionate gamer, he spends 60% of his day playing games and writting reviews (a side job) and the other working at hardware store, but the problem is - his chairs break too often.

 

I come to his house each day so we can play togheter and I've noticed that literally each 5-6 months he has a new chair and the old one is gone.

I wanted to surprise him and get him a decent gaming chair that'll keep his spine straight, head up and will allow him to sit comfortably knowing that the chair he has is a solid one and won't break into pieces

within few days.

 

My budget isn't limited, but the more I save the better, unless it's an amount of cash that'll make a difference!

 

Thanks in advance!

It does look amazing, he's not as wide thought, I am not sure if he would be comfortable in it :D

@Netheous What is your budget?  Many of my coworkers use these chairs but I don't know the names of the features/configurations the company chose for them.

 

I wish I could remember the name of the chair I have. It's larger, a lot more comfortable, and supports up to 400 lbs.  I love it. 

 

Depending on what your budget is, I'll check for the brand and model on my next day at work. Here's a [not so great] picture of one.  It's not mine, though. Mine looks nicer. :)
