I’m in the market for a new gaming / office chair, your purchase looks nice, post link bro?

In making my choice checked a lot of reviews. The #1 pick in many of them was the Secretlab Titan which is shown in the picture I posted.


Would have liked Napa leather, which the Omega (PC Gamer Editor's Choice) has, but not an option with the Titan.

It likely will not last as long as the Herman Miller Logitech Gaming chair, but for almost 1/3 the price ....

Replacing a clapped-out 2004 F150 and Western plow with this, plus snowblower. Delivery late September. I have a .35 mile long twisting driveway that rises 200' through forest. With the plow, there's eventually no place to put the plowed snow. The snowblower will blow it into the forest.


Open operator station in the winter...oh well.

LBS has one in stock and transferring from another store to the location closest to me. It should take maybe a week. Since they’re on commission, I won’t go pick it up from the other store even though it’s tempting. Just trying to bank some good karma from the cycling gods.

I’d not buy it. The peddles are missing!

Just ordered a new electric scooter to buzz through our city parks during those upcoming summer months. Since I am tinkerer, I also ordered two of the best mods available. A complete yellow suspension package front & rear to hopp over eventual potholes in the English Gardens in Munich Downtown. Can't wait for the new toy to arrive and start modding.. :)

Hopefully you don’t kill anyone. I personally think they should be banned. On the pavements and roads they are dangerous.

Tried out a few of the Steelcase chairs today, went with the Leap V2. 3 month wait thought.. Huge upgrade from the DX Racer I currently use.

Congratulations for graduating from gaming chairs. DX Racers aren't the worst gaming chairs you can get. They do have some some decent chairs in their upper end range of their product lines, but that's probably not what you owned. I have a DX Racer as one of my chairs.

Thanks, yeah it was just an entry level one. At the time of buying I wasn't ready to commit the price of a proper chair and I sat in weird positions, so didn't think it would be worth getting. But recently I stared playing with desk, monitor heights and sitting better, so was a good time to step up. I do spend over 8 hours a day in the seat after all.

While I'm not personally a fan of the Leap, it's an excellent chair and it's an ergo chair straight out of central casting.

Have you tried a Leap before?

It's really worth it to spend the money to support your body. Chairs are expensive, but pain and medical bills cost a fortune.

Went to a reseller today and spent some time alternating between the Leap and Gesture, the Leap felt best out of the 2. Briefly sat in the Series 2 and Think chairs, but didn't fit that well for me.

Smart. Very smart! A lot of people have purchased a Steelcase chair because they heard good things about them and ended up sore and upset about their purchase. Steelcase is a great brand, but everyone's body and habits are different. It's impossible to determine if a chair is the right one for you until you've given it a serious test drive.
