If so what are your thoughts?

I have my PS4 in my bedroom right now mainly for the purpose of streaming movies and TV while I'm laying in bed, but I don't really have a comfortable chair for any gaming. I don't do a whole lot of gaming but I just bought a couple of games that I think I'll like.

Any recommendations?

I thought about that as well but I don't know if that would be relaxing enough for me

99% if not all gaming chairs sit so low to the floor so unless you enjoy staring at your ceiling just to watch tv/play games I would avoid gaming chairs at all costs. I second a nice cushioned office chair.

I've always wondered about those almost $400 PC gaming chairs that are low racecar seats. They make console ones too.

Every big streamer seems to have one and even smaller ones, as well as a ton of YouTubers.

My wife brought me a nice one, over a 100 I believe. Really nice and I love it. Rocketfish I think. Even have speakers you can sync on the sides. I love it. My daughter likes to sit in it too to watch cartoons.

Go old school and get a bean bag chair.

Most of those youtubers and twitch streamers were given those seats for free

I wouldn't say most, some sure.

I watch some that aren't partnered or very big and a lot have them as well.

I had a rounded speaker chair a few years ago, as was mentioned earlier it was uncomfortably low to the ground.

Those console chairs are $299 and the PC chairs range from $319-$389.

And then their top of the line PC K series are $469.





Only $500 with tax!

Those "gaming" chairs you have pictured are just office chairs with some bright colors that cost double what you can get the same chair from Office Depot for.

Right because young people on YouTube are so economically smart.

A lot aren't that young, and it's not just YouTube either. They are extremely popular chairs.

Just saying for $500 of that one chair you can get a lot of nicer options just they aren't called "gaming" chairs and have bright colors. Same with the others. You ever look into what you can get out of a $300 office chair?
