QUOTE(kevinlim001 @ Apr 30 2020, 02:03 PM) yea i am also looking for this brand but the flanking issue seems common.. it may last longer if it being placed in a 24x7 ac room. Fabric which is more exp seems to be a better choice.Not sure if there's any noble chair user here can comment about. Noblechair often being taken as the competitor for secret lab fabric cheaper bro.

QUOTE(mADmAN @ Apr 30 2020, 11:45 AM) bring the chair to a car upholstery shop... ask them to change the pu leather to recaro fabric... will probably be more durable, better beathability and maybe even more comfortable. if ur near selayang, prinz auto has a thread here on LYN which you can search for. saw their workmanship on a friends sparco bucket seats and its damn nice. Thanks for the suggestion. Will look for it after mco

If you all go to alibaba and look for gaming chairs, you’ll stumble into some designs that are similar to Secretlab. Ask for a sample piece, will cost around Rm500+ including express shipping. Quality is 90% identical.

Pu leather from secretlab is just too fragile. Markus chair I tried sitting on it in ikea, felt its comfortable but I'm not sure for long hours. Didnt pay particular attention to the head rest part.

Just have to find a local reliable one I guess. The chair's foam all still holding well but the leather part is not.

Really, the chair is amazing and the amazing lumbar support is freaking comfortable. Better than Pofit.

Consider fabric version or napa leather version if u want
