Hi guys I have been looking closely at the
DxRacer
GT Omega
Vertagear
AKRacing
I cannot decide on which to go for! Also the dxracer seems to have been out of stock forever does this mean they are no longer in production?? Thanks a lot! btw I'm based in the uk.
PS: I have already been down to my local ikea and tried the markus, it was alright but I would prefer one of these as imo they look more professional.

A few popular Youtubers use the GT Omegas. They look pretty comfy for long sits and look sleek.

I had the same dilema for a while because I wanted a new chair and couldn't figure out the one that stuck out. I finally made a decision a while back when DXRacer was having some sort of a flash sale, and got [ Register or Signin to view external links. ] and have been loving it. Best purchase I have made for myself in a long time.



The chair isn't more expensive than other office style chairs I looked at in places like Walmart, Staples, etc etc

The color matches my setup

It is very comfortable

Easy to install and setup

Quick shipping


Overall, I personally think that it is worth the money to invest in these kinds of chairs if you spend large amounts of time working at a computer like I do, or pulling long gaming sessions. If not though, the steep price may not be worth your time or money.

I carry out long gaming sessions sometimes 24 hours a day (shh I know its bad) I also plan to start streaming so it will deffo be used as my set up is in my room and I never tend to leave it aha thanks!
EDIT: you have any idea why they have been out of stock for so long? plus I'm based In the uk so I don't think I could purchase from there could I?

Hi there I have been able to get in contact with dxracer and actually get a response back I now need to know what series to go for. I have been looking closely at the DxRacer F series R series and K series. Is there any major differences apart from the height and weight support of the chair? Thanks!
PS I'm 5'7 slim built but still growing. I was thinking the Racing series would be the best one.

I've had this chair for 6 months roughly, I spend at least 15 hours a day on it, it's super comfy, strong and overall a very well put together chair. I'm from UK and it was fast delivery and easy to put together. Highly recommend it.

Thanks guys really appreciate all the comments but I'm still gonna stick with the racer. I tried the markus as ikea and I thought it was pretty spank too! but I would prefer a chair that reclines any day. GT Omega is one I had considered but from a few reviews here and there I have heard the density of the foam feels a lot better on the dx also. IMO I think the racer looks better so I will therefore choose it also for a lifetime warranty on the frame and 2 years on the actual chair (stitching) etc I cant complain. Thanks! I will gift the rest of you rep also!
