        Buying guide: how to choose the right gaming chair

        Size the chair to your body

        Secretlab sells the Titan Evo in three sizes. Its own chart recommends Small under 5'6", Regular 5'7"–6'2" and XL 5'11"–6'9".

        Seat depth travel

        Racing-style chairs usually have fixed seats. Embody Gaming and Fern gaming both slide 3", which suits a wider range of leg lengths.

        Warranty length

        Herman Miller and Haworth back their gaming chairs for 12 years. Secretlab's standard US warranty is 3 years, extendable to 5 through registration.

        How this ranking is calculated

        Score = weighted average of normalised specs, out of 10. Full method

        Weight capacityThe heaviest user the maker rates or warranties the chair for. Anything above 400 lb scores the same as 400 lb. Scale: 250 → 400 lb.
        30%
        Warranty lengthYears of coverage on the chair's frame and mechanism, as the maker states it. Scale: 1 → 15 yr.
        20%
        Seat depth adjustmentHow far the seat slides front to back. A fixed seat scores 0; longer travel fits more leg lengths. Metric figures converted (25.4 mm = 1 in). Scale: 0 → 3.5 in.
        15%
        Maximum seat heightFloor to top of seat at its highest, with the standard cylinder. Taller users need more. Scale: 19 → 22.5 in.
        10%
        Minimum seat heightFloor to top of seat at its lowest. Shorter users need less to keep feet flat. Scale: 19 → 15.5 in.
        10%
        Armrest adjustmentsThe number of directions the armrests move (4D = up/down, forward/back, side to side, pivot) as the maker labels them. Unlabeled arms score as the lowest figure. Scale: 0 → 6 D.
        15%
        Adjustable lumbarYes when the maker lists lumbar support you can adjust.
        5%

        Frequently asked questions

        Why so few gaming chairs?

        Most gaming chair brands don't publish seat height, depth and weight ratings on a spec sheet. We only rank chairs whose makers publish those numbers.

        Are Secretlab chairs worse than Herman Miller?

        On published specs, Secretlab's shorter warranty and fixed seat depth cost it points; the XL's 395 lb rating and 22.5" seat height are the highest here.
