"premium perforated PU leather" so it's not actually ahem leather then
This is getting silly, £3-400 chairs that are fake leather. I got a real leather operators chair for £80 (was 1/2 price but I would still pay the £160 over 3-400 for pleather).Quote:

Bob: We're having trouble coming up with a name. Something that says comfort, premium feel, gaming in luxury.
Rob: Ah, that's a tough one.
Bob: So, any ideas?
Rob: Comfort... luxury...
Bob: ...
Rob: How about ROAD WARRIOR!!!
Bob: ...
Rob: ...
Bob: ... Rob, you're a goddamn genius! Marg! Wheel in the cake trolley, we're done here.
I have a noblechairs ICON and a noblechairs EPIC, both in the £300-£400 range, both PU "leather".Quote:

I'm not against paying the money per se... but leather is an animal product where as PU so isn't
Funny how we found some perfectly fine office chairs for much less than £400. Oh well!!
Edit!!
The moment you put its for PCMR GAMERZ,then they can tack any stupid price on it??
I assume the chair has RGB lighting??
Has RGB lighting but you need the hub to enable it and it's extra. Then you can control it with your Alexa doodaaaaaaa
Well... at least they didn't go for ROAD KILL. That's something, I guess...Quote:

And just to add insult to rip-off injury, it's not even RGB-enabled!!Quote:

Whereas money does contain animal products.... Ironic!! :lol:Quote:

I'm aiming this at several people in this thread - can you actually provide proof to back up these claims?Quote:

What kind of reviews? Gamer chair ones?Quote:

They're not 'By Gamers For Gamers' chairs, but they are used by police dispatchers and similar roles where people are sat for long periods and the chair is in continual use round the clock.
As well as solid, supportive foam, they have something like 9-12 points of adjustment whereas the current trend of Gamer Chairs seem to have maybe 5 or 6 at most...
My current chair was donated by work, but when that wears out I was planning on getting one of these 24hr ones.
The chair I am sitting in is worth £400 to £600 and cost well under £100 new,since I got it from an office surplus store BRAND NEW.Quote:
