Hi guys, I am currently looking at Ikea Markus for my first chair for gaming usage. My budget is around RM500+. I wont be sitting on the chair for long hours that's why feel like not spending more on it. Any suggestion for affordable chair around that budget?

If you sit on that chair for like 10-12 hours a day I think you should spend as much as possible on that. That is your health after all. Just think how much it will cost to fix it if something will be wrong. I would go for twice a budget, but I will feel like a king while working/gaming;)

I bought a gaming chair from Taobao before too and used for about 3 months then decide to upgrade. Got myself an Anda Seat Spirit King series and I must say, the quality is far far better than the Taobao one.

U will not regret it. Only if u plan to stay a whole day infront pc then it will be a wise choice. If not, try the cheap one from anda seat. I think 5++ somethng for the lowest one.

I heard so many people talk about Anda Seat but its material is PVC leh. Not leather. PVC will peel off sooner or later. Wonder they have fabric version or not.

on last saturday, i went to gadzet zone at penang queensbay to have a sit test and ask some question.
about the anda seat currently din have any fabric version yet and till now they din recieve any feedback from customer related the pvc leather is peel off.
and also they are saying that they have sold anda seat around 1 years time, so far no any feedback yet.


because i also worries about the pvc leather peel off sooner or later.
and thinking another option which is rise my budget to become double the price point of anda seat dark wizard,
then maybe direct go for secretlab titan softweave fabric version confused.gif confused.gif
