Any reviews?

I think this is a very interesting read. Gives me a different perspectives about Gaming chairs, I always thought that they are pretty bad ergonomically but it doesn't seem so!
It is as good as it gets, of course incomparable with the true ergonomical chair but still pretty good!

Gaming Chair is Good for your back!

Was comparing real hard between Merryfair and Alterseat due to the warranty. Merryfair 5 years warranty on the chair mechanism but not include wear and tear of cushion and sunken seat. However Alterseat cover these and its 10 years warranty somemore. I was quite surprised that Alterseat covered even wear and tear.

in the end, i chose Anggun as the WhatsApp customer care contact gave me additional 20% discount. So i got the chair with headrest at RM528, which i think it's a pretty good deal. Furthermore, i will be using this at home, not office. WFH will probably be temporary and at most until mid of 2021, so the chair will most likely be in good condition even after 5 years. Another plus is the design which i quite like the honey orange cushion and grey mesh compared to all black office chair design

chair will arrive in 10 days, hopefully it will be a good one. will update again by then.

I have and always recommend steelcase chairs

Steelcase Leap - 2.5k~ ish.
Steelcase Think - 2k~ish

Price may change

I have sat extensively on both chair for long hours due to WFH. They are very comfortable and provide good support.
Material quality is awesome. I have the Leap for 2.5 years and it is still like new.

when choosing the chair, always look for best back support and ergonomically. comfortable doesn't mean you will get a back support

some people condemn gaming chair but little did they know the back support is important there

Not everyone is as rich as you la bro.. 4-5k is more than my monthly salary

understood that a few thousands are just pocket change to you, but to many, that range is premium

I just got myself the steelcase series 2 for rm1800(proudly made in puchong) after a 2 months waiting period (initially im going to order the Leap as it's supremely comfortable, but that doesn't have a mesh back and I don't like how the Think looks like), replacing my 6 months old Marcus (I didn't get any discomfort sitting on the Marcus for > 10 hours though)
Marcus's mesh back has more give but Series2 has got a lot more adjustments to make sure my lumbar area is always supported
Marcus' seat cushion feels softer and plushier compared to Steelcase's

Side note: anyone looking for a 6months old fabric Marcus can PM me

Where did you all get your Steelcase? Can I have the shop name or GPS please?
I would like to go and try. Am hunting for a good chair after the really horrible experience I have with a certain shop.
Don't they get hot since they are not really mesh? I find fully mesh one really comfortable I think.

Am looking these chairs also from Evis.com.my
Any reviews or comments? But crazy expensive.

have u went and tried alterseat dt 330? i feel like buyin that chair soon

In some cases, what you say is correct. I understand your pov and many of my friends give the same feedback. But i want to point out that so many people can spend 2-3k on a phone that last them… at most 4 years to play some games and surf /k fb tiktok. Even a budget phone cost 1k and these crap out in 3 years max. But when talking about 2k on a chair that lasts 10 years, sorry no thanks i already have a (crap) chair.

Why not look from a different perspective. Good chairs are expensive and you pay for what you get. Steelcase also have cheaper option that is the Steelcase Lets B which goes for low RM1xxx

I got the steelcase leap and isn't pocket change. I saved hard for it. The Think chair is my office standard issue chair. I did not spend a cent on it.

zenpro has a showroom in kelana jaya, their factory's in sg buloh
I bought the series 2 without trying it on though, but I read the review that it's quite similar to the Think (of which I've tested and liked), I don't turn on aircond at home a lot so I decided to forgo the Leap
good thing about steelcase is if you get the made in Malaysia one, you can customize the color combination without adding too much onto the lead time

if you really wanted to indulge, pay XTRA mid valley a visit and try on their Okamura Contessa 2, the seat cushion is supremely comfortable

I splurge on a better chair hoping that it could save me some trips to the Chiro, if it saves me a few trips to the Chiro the chair essentially paid for itself already

evis has a showroom in cheras, pay them a visit and test on their things

The Okamura looks nice but no headrest. And it doesn't seem to be so adjustable from what I can see from the website.
WOW! They can even customise steelcase? I should just go to their S.Buloh factory maybe. So you just called them and ordered online or something?

yeap, that's what I'm gonna do after I settle my case first.

Errr.. nope. I don't see why I would go and try that model cause what I want from a chair is different. xD
But everyone's body is different, you should try if you could to see if it's comfortable for you.

did you buy at the same place as the guy below?

oh yes, my office using steelcase think. didnt make full use of it after switch office 2 years ago. now WFH baru appreciate. HAHA

can share how much you paid for your chair? i regret not buying it in may. should have just bought earlier instead of dining table chair.

nope. bought in penang.
i am quoting rrp. some chairs are cheaper if you have corp discount or buy in bulk.

That;s the only thing i hate about Steelcase.

Huh, I just realised Steelcase Leap cannot be tilted back based on the YT videos I saw, seems limited tilt. Can anyone confirm? That's out of my choice already then.
