Now from € 599.90 at Amazon price can now be higher. Price from 27.07.2020 00:08 a.m.

The noblechairs ICON really lives up to its name: genuine leather cover, elegant look and extremely high quality workmanship. For this reason, the gaming chair came first in comparison.org. Thanks to the steel frame and the aluminum turnstile, this model can also hold up to 150 kilograms. The only disadvantage: With almost 600 euros, this chair is anything but cheap. However, if the price only plays a subordinate role, the matching footrest from the same manufacturer is still available for around 180 euros.

All-rounder: noblechairs EPIC Black Edition

Our all-rounder also comes from the same brand: the noblechairs EPIC in the Black Edition.

The setting options are just as varied and with a maximum load of up to 120 kilograms, this chair should at least pass the test of time just as well.

Buying a gaming chair: that's what matters

It is important with a good gaming chair that you sit stable and above all comfortably, so that the back and buttocks are not noticeable even after hours of fighting. If you spend several hours a day in front of the computer, your chair should not only be comfortable, but should also be able to adapt to your body through adjustable seat height, armrests and other ergonomic features. Here a special gaming chair offers several advantages:

Special convenience thanks to numerous setting options
Additional hold thanks to bucket seat
Remains comfortable even during long gaming sessions
Sporty designs

A little movement in between can truly work wonders. With Beat Saber you don't even have to do without your console or PC:

So that you are guaranteed to make the right choice when buying a gaming chair, it would definitely be advisable to visit the specialist dealer directly to test the seating comfort on site. However, if you prefer to buy online, you should pay particular attention to the following features:

height-adjustable backrest with rocker function and adjustable tilt angle
adjustable seat height
Neck support or extra pillows in the neck area and in the lumbar region
adjustable armrests, ideally displaceable as well as sliding back and forth

In terms of design and material, it all depends on your preferences. For example, a cover made of synthetic leather is easier to clean, whereas real leather is usually more robust. You should also choose the right desk chair for you, depending on the intended use and the available budget. If you spend most of your day at your desk, it would make sense to invest in a high-quality chair.
