Anyone has had any experience with the dx racing chairs? ( http://www.dxracer.net/ )
Some say the wheel base isn't wide and strong enough to support leaning?

Any recommendations of other PC chairs besides all the IKEA - type chairs? (max 200pounds)

i know that the best thing to chose one is going to a store and sit on it, but i allready did that in most common stores here (Ikea, macro, furniture stores,......)
i'm looking for something different :)

I don't know how the DX chairs are but I know I'd want one if I could afford it, they look nice

Wow, looks nice and comfy, pricey though!

I got a cheapo chair from Viking Direct on sale for about £35 shipped.

Granted it is kinda falling apart after a years use, it's not awful for the price.

lol, I've actually had two of those chairs.

This first one I bought probably 5+ years ago and was the cream version, it lasted ages. Pretty good value.

Then I needed a replacement so bought the black one. Totally different build quality, thing started falling apart after a few months and looks like total shit now about 2 years down the road. Arms are all cracked and padding exposed. Still, does it's job for now and I'm probably not going to take it when I leave the house I'm in at the moment this summer. Did it's job for the price though and the amount of time I spend plonked in it.

Had something similar to the racing chair from eBay, Fell asleep in it one sat woke up the seat pillar was bent and guess what the guarantee was not worth the paper it was written on , also it had side bolsters which were uncomfortable( your legs had to be pressed together all the time and I was an average 36 waist at the time & not too heavy . that one looks more spacious and I hope im wrong but those things can dig into you mate if not very well made good luck & if it isn't 100% on delivery send it back & look elsewhere :cautious:

Looks smart!

I hope it's leather so it's easy to clean the skidmarks off it :whistle:

I think you should buy this!
I got one of those upstairs next to the sexswing.
This is my swing:


Easy to put together
Firm broad base so lots of stability
Ergonomic handles (optional padded ones included )
Adjustable springs
Soft leather straps on the seat and legsupports so you can go houres in it without discomfort

But it wasn't too comfortable gaming in it....
