1. Gaming Chairs Under $500
Our first category is gaming chairs under the $500 mark. The first chair that fits best is the Secret Lab Titan Evo 2022. This chair is a sturdy, heavy duty, good quality style chair. I really like the built-in lumbar support system and how much support the chair has. A cool feature is the deep recline so you can have relaxation while you game. The seat is also on the firmer side so for some this might not be a good choice.
The next option we have is the Secret Lab Omega 2020. I decided to add one of the seat pads we have at the office to place on this gaming chair. It seemed to fix a lot of the problems. The seat is too firm for me so the extra cushion worked nice. These seat pads are on Amazon for about $90.
2. Gaming Chairs Under $700
Moving up in price is the $700 range. Now the first chair we went with is going to be a little more than $700. It is the Herman Miller Vantum which is about $795 but if you wait for coupons, it can drop under that. The back is comfortable and the arms are soft, but the headrest isn’t great. In terms of gaming chairs, it’s a solid pick and you get the 12-year warranty so no complaints there.
3. Gaming Chairs Under $1000
Topping it off at a high-end category is the $1000 price. The gaming chair we thought made the most sense is the X Chair Mavix M9. The policies aren’t great, but the quality and comfort are top notch. The recline has a wide range so staying relaxed is not difficult. The seat is also comfy and can be used for hours at a time. The color of the chair is white and I think that looks sleek and modern. In time, it might not stay that white so depending on your preference, this may or may not be the best choice for you.
The next pick is the Herman Miller Sayl. It’s such a cool looking chair in my opinion. For taller people it may not be a good fit, but I still recommend it at this price. The seat pad is the right amount of cushion and the arms are solid but soft.
4. Gaming Chairs with No Budget
Now in this range, any chair is fair game. Ultimately the first chair we went with is the Haworth Halo Fern. The lumbar support is great and gives me full support. I like the seat, it’s soft and cushy with the vegan leather upholstery. The overall comfort with this one I would definitely make sure people are aware of.
Another gaming chair is the Herman Miller Embody. This chair is nice looking and can go with all types of setups. A perk with this one is you can choose whether you want a headrest or not. For me, I am not a fan of the headrest, so I went without. This one is comfortable when leaning back and it is very flexible. While it is a gaming chair, I like this chair for everyday office use because of everything it offers.
Bottom Line
Overall, gaming chairs are meant to look cool but also provide comfort. We would love to hear your opinions on which gaming chairs you like or prefer. There are so many options out there.
