Review on Vertagear SL2000_BP S Line Racing Gaming Sports & Fitness in Leisure Sports & Game Room by Mark Harrison

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Falling apart after 1 year. Stay away

I am 6ft 3in tall, 180lbs. I bought it for my standing desk and was immediately very disappointed with its height. I wasn't expecting a stool or anything, but even at its highest setting of around 20 inches, it still barely reaches the lowest setting on my desk. This is normal, and yet I get up most of the time. 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 I bought for $70 that I sat in for over 8 hours every day which lasted 3 years before it started to break down. 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.
