Next Level vs. Playseat

This is a somewhat tricky product. I'm researching this specifically for the formula position as that's all I've been interested in/tried. It's not the most comfortable seat in that position but certainly suitable for 50% length races in F1 2019. The mesh is a nice touch so you're breathable if you're someone who sweats during intense league races etc. Mesh is not padded so it will be a bit uncomfortable. There's no really easy way to get in, especially into a formula position, since you're essentially at floor level and have to put each foot in and then lower yourself. At one point, however, it feels like a good riding position, and I like being able to adjust the incline of the pedals. To be honest, if there wasn't already a cheaper and more convenient portable setup option (assuming you fit in), I'd rate it higher. But in my opinion there is a better version of the Playseat Challenge. The gaming seat has been around for years, and while you can't put it in the same formula position, you can get pretty close and it's definitely more comfortable if you ask me. It's also $70 cheaper than a sticker. Love this chair, I just think if you are looking for a portable setup you should try both Next Level and Playseat. Playseat wins for me.

Pros
  • A handy part
Cons
  • Not everything fits
