Recommendations for gaming chairs?

FattMatt:
As of this morning I weigh 130 kg. I now outweigh the max load of my previous chair by 10 kg. It has been filled with clothing for the past few months and I now use an old dining room chair. I think it’s time to invest some money to buy a new chair. I’ve seen some good chairs online with a max load of 150-180kg but I’m torn. My previous 120kg chair was giving up on me when I weighed 113kg. I don’t have the money for me to spend 400-500 euros on a new gaming chair that will break when I am closing in on 140kg. Do any of you have experience with a certain brand or specific chair that you can recommend? Is it safe to go for a 150kg chair or should I get the 180kg chair knowing I most likely will get close to the 150kg in the future?

Check craigslist (or whatever your local equivalent is if you do not have this where you live), and look for one of those really comfy plush recliners like old people get, they're designed to hold a ton, are super comfy, and you can often find ugly ones for very cheap and then just put a slipcover over it or something

Yeah office chairs are definitely the better option as they are actually built for comfort.

My ex was 170kg and got this chair which was so comfortable. www.chairoffice.co.uk/ergo-adjust-high-back-office-chair/

Don’t just look at the weight limit as you want to make sure the seat is wide enough and has adjustable or wider arm rests too

Got myself a Secretlabs Titan Evo XL in cloth a while ago after trying several chairs. It is firm and finally I can spend the whole day, days in a row, without any discomfort anywhere smiley
