Review on Vertagear SL2000_BP S Line Racing Gaming by Anthony Shields

Falling apart after 1 year. Stay Away

I'm 6ft 3in, 180 lbs. I bought it for my standing desk and was immediately very disappointed with its height. I wasn't expecting a stool or anything like that, but even at its largest size of around 20 inches, it still barely reaches the lowest setting on my desk. It's normal and all, although I'm mostly standing. What's not great is how horrible it looks now after only a year of relatively light use (maximum 3-4 hours a day). The back is falling apart at the seams, the seat is torn, the lumbar support slides free at every turn, and the armrests are loose and wobbly - I keep adjusting the backrest and trying to tighten the armrests to no avail. I bought this chair in April 2019 but since around March these problems have been getting worse. I'm only browsing through it now because I've been on the market for a little over a year and am looking for a new chair. I'm very disappointed and expected a lot more for the price. Before that I had an Inland Racer chair that I bought for $70 and sat in for 8+ hours every day for 3 years before it started to break. It wasn't perfect either, but at least I got my money's worth. If this is $330 quality I have no idea how bad the cheaper models are. Even the more expensive models use the same materials. Stay away from this brand.
