AKRacing Masters Series Pro Gaming Chair Review

Final Thoughts

Price

The full range of the Pro Gaming Chair (regardless of colour) is set at an MSRP price of £599.00. This is, on the surface at least, rather a lot of money to spend on a chair. You do, however, have to consider the factor of just how long you spend in front of your PC or desk. Personally, with work, I can spend anything up to 12 hours a day sitting at the desk. As such, it’s important to have a seat that’s not only comfortable but one that’s good for your back and posture.

With this in mind, based on the excellent quality of the Pro Gaming Chair, consider it an investment rather than a purchase!

Overview

Given that the Pro Gaming Chair is one of AKRacing’s most prestige lines, the standards we set for this were rather high. Despite that, we were never disappointed. The entire chair feels exceptionally well made with the attention to detail and near invisible stitchwork. Not only does it look good, but we suspect that this chair would last for many, many, years without any problems whatsoever.

Admittedly, we would have preferred to see such a high-specification chair include a padded armrest rather than plastic, but no gaming chair is perfect and this minor detail is honestly the only negative point we can really raise at this point.

It looks fantastic, it’s exceptionally comfortable, the quality is unquestionable and more than anything, this feels like it will last a lifetime! What more could you possibly ask for?

Pros

Near faultless build quality.
A range of colours to suit any situation be it professional or gaming.
Very comfortable.
3D adjustment armrests.
Tilt lock with a nice solid control handle and excellent recline level.
Lumbar and head cushions included.
Colour matched stitching and base inserts.
‘Pleather’ covering throughout looks strong, durable, but very comfortable. It should also be a doddle to clean.
A truly high-performance gaming chair in every sense.
