Customer Reviews for RESPAWN 26.8 in. Width Big and Tall Gray Bonded Leather Gaming Chair with Adjustable Height

Excellent price for the quality of the product. Slow shipping.

I will keep this short since the chair only lasted about 3 months sitting at my desk between 5-10 hours a day. Considering it was inexpensive I was hoping to get decent enough comfort out of it for about 6-12 months until I could shop for a better one in person and then use it as a guest chair in the game room after that. I can tell Respawn had great ambition for this chair for the price and I think they are an interesting up and coming chair company but they need to work on some things with their suppliers. Positives: It looks cool and the flexibility of having the extendable leg rest is nice to have. The faux leather feels kind of nice to the touch when new. The chair was very inexpensive because of the discounts for its feature set. I paid about $165 before tax for the Red/Black model. Negatives: Here is the killer flaw and the likely reason it can be had for a severe discount. The foam padding is one of the cheapest foams that can be had which is very common in "gaming" chairs mass produced by wholesalers in China. The padding in the seat and arms compressed to the frame and became so firm it was causing my legs to frequently fall asleep and my elbow to no longer have enough support for my mouse arm. If Respawn would change suppliers and start using better foam that would be the single best thing they can do to up the quality of the R-110 chair. The second major flaw is the (what I believe is petroleum based) faux leather that is used may seem durable but it does not breath at all and has developed a fairly strong sulfuric like smell most of the time. I think this because the material traps so much heat and moisture that reacts to chemicals in the plastic/"bonded leather" to create a swampy environment. Once again I think they can work with their suppliers on making this more breathable like a natural leather by using a better synthetic material than what they have now. The other flaws are not nearly as bad but are still noteworthy. The near 180 degree recline function is nice but it is difficult to return into an upright position because there arms fail to spring back and get stiff no matter their angle. I also have to be careful because the 5 pointed star base is too light and the chair is easy to tip over trying to lift the backrest upright again. The arms themselves are flimsy and do not hold up to more than a few pounds of weight and one of them even deflects under the weight of my arm allowing the back of the chair to become crooked. The springs and tensioners in both the arms and the base creak and pop from the excessive friction in the mechanisms that it sounds like something is physically wrong much of the time. This happens when barely moving around in the chair and even when shifting just slightly to adjust my arms while typing on my keyboard. The last flaw is the extendable footrest. I love the idea of this and I hope Respawn continues to pursue this because I like being able to prop my feet up from time to time and having the pad flipped to the hard side up is nice for putting on shoes and tying them up in an ergonomic fashion. The problem is however is pad is a bit too firm and the mounts underneath the seat are so weak I am worried I could break them if I am not careful and that is not exactly relaxing. P.S. I wrote this review from old "big and tall" chair which I had worn in over 6+ years and bought on sale for about $230. I am 6' tall and a medium build so I can still recommend this chair for someone who is small and slim and who would love a stylish chair that they only use for 2-4 hours a day. This chair would be great for a young student or in the game room just not for the home office which is what I had to buy it for in a pinch.

The bottom portion isn't threaded (which I'm presuming it is suppose to be) in order to connect the back portion to the base. Consequently the chair is not functional. I have yet to get a lug to thread it so that it will actually constitute as support - otherwise its worthless, and doesn't function as anything other than a stool.

My grandson loves his new chair! Now my son is going to buy one because it's so comfortable. Glad I decided on this chair.

Went together easily. Very comfortable and sturdy!

Good quality, comfortable. Easy to ensemble. The color is great, it’s so soft. It literally reclines all the way back too.

Very pleased, comfortable, sturdy and easy to put together

Pretty good quality for the price, easy to assemble. Would buy again.

Love this chair! Good quality and design.

Grandson loves his gaming chair

No instructions were included in the box. My son was able to google it and put it together. The chair itself is comfortable.

Got this chair for my son for Christmas, he loved it, really happy with my purchase. Will be buying a second one really soon.

Didn't come with screws to hold the backrest to the seat and had to order those separately. Taking off 1 star for that. Other than that the chair is amazing and super comfortable.

Bought this for my step daughter....she loves it. Big cushion and she loves the footrest. Good chair.

Came on time and easy to assemble!

The back did not line up with the seat, therefore there was a big gap between the back and the seat.

Definitely pleased with this chair! Comfortable and perfect for gaming!

For the price the chair works great and will fit my needs. That being said...are there other chairs that might be more comfortable? probably. But easy to assemble and looks cool.

My Son Loves this chair - He’s a gamer

The pillows are extra hard and uncomfortable.

Comfortable and quiet

Very stylish and comfortable works well
