Review on Gaming chair AndaSeat Kaiser 3 L, black by Dagmara Nowicka ᠌

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Poor product, the quality is below average.

Add. minus: adjustment of the armrests in width back and forth in very limited ranges, I personally wanted to make them narrower than I could. Before this chair, I had a Meta for 6000, a year later the gas lift died on it, I decided to take a more expensive gaming chair, they don’t save on health, but I’m a programmer, it’s important to me. While choosing, I came across comments saying "Bullshit, these gaming chairs, take normal ergonomic office chairs" and after a couple of weeks I realized that these people were completely right. The very shape of gaming chairs - the bucket - tends to slouch, and the kaiser 3 is no exception, when you try to put the back perpendicular to the seat, this bucket just bends you and leads you to a stooped position. It is also inconvenient to swing, as the seat goes behind the back and raises its legs. I used the function of reclining the chair a couple of times - it’s not clear why you should be able to “sleep” in the chair, especially if you work from home, it’s still not convenient to look at something from this position, and even the lower back needs to be adjusted every time you change the slope, since gets too high or low. In the working position, by the way, the height of my lower back was not enough for me, although I am only 178, the chair is also declared for taller people. According to the lunge of the seat, it is too long for me, but there is no way to adjust it, okay, at least I took L-ku. In conclusion: for this money it is better not to take a gaming chair, but to take a good office chair. And I'm not talking about Meta, Bureaucrat and others like them. I mean Steelcase, Herman Miller, Haworth etc. These chairs can be found on ebay for money comparable to this miracle, but health and comfort are many times greater. I took Herman Miller Mirra 2 for myself, on ebay for 40 k.

Pros
  • - linen fabric seems to be quite good, although relatively easily soiled; - height adjustment of the armrests is quite decent; - you can swing, albeit with a creak; - like a good foam seat; - you can spin around the axis for a long time, apparently they put good bearings;
Cons
  • Height 178, weight 84. What can you deal with: - small backlash and clanging of armrests; - squeaks when swinging in the lower position of the gas lift; - plastic inserts on top, which, in principle, I did not reach, but because of the more significant disadvantages, I decided to purchase a pillow on the seat - the shoulders rose to the level of the armrests and became uncomfortable; - the foam of the pillow is harsh + it is narrow in height, but thick in reach - there is not enough support area; What is impossible to put up with (there are a lot of claims): - the shape of the seat - in fact, in front of the seat, we just have a cliff, which, coupled with a rather hard foam, squeezes the legs under the knee, it’s just hard to sit for a long time, because you feel as if there is not enough blood in the legs (I set my legs at 90 degrees, feet on the floor); - on the subject of the seat - lateral support ala a racing car - it’s nonsense, in fact, the thighs just rest against these “wings”, the feeling that something is poking at them is extremely uncomfortable, it would be better if they just made a flat seat; - Swing system - the seat moves along with the back, that is, it is a rigid structure, respectively, the front edge of the seat rises and further compresses the vessels under the knee; - LOIN - well, a miracle did not happen here . but the mechanisms move it up and down, back and forth. It works like a sheet of paper - you press on the edges, the sheet is rounded and sticks out, from this - in the convex position the support is very narrow, in fact a strip, and which is extremely inconvenient to lean on + it is rigid. That is, instead of a normal, anatomical bend, you lean on a strip 10 cm high. If, judging by the reviews, this bend is smoother in a similar Secretlab chair, here it is really hard and sharp. - a crookedly fitted back - after a short time, I began to feel severe discomfort on one side of the back, I also looked closely at the OPA . the gap between the seat and the back on one side is 1 - 1.5 cm larger than on the other, I tried to disassemble and trim, but no, the holes are such that there is no way to skew. - there was also a jamb with a clanging in the backrest tilt mechanism on the right, but it was easily fixed
