Since many of us spend substantial amounts of time in front of a computer screen, especially if you’re a gamer, grabbing yourself a good gaming chair can certainly help avoid some of the common issues that come with more standard chairs. While not all gaming chairs are built around things like increased blood flow and lumbar support, many of them do have features that can make life a lot more comfortable. Either way, we’ve gone out and collected a few of our favorite gaming chairs for you below to help save you the hassle.

Homall Massage Gaming Chair — $85 $150 43% off
The Homall Massage Gaming Chair is affordable, but it will get the job done of keeping you comfortable while playing video games with its ergonomic design and high-quality PU leather materials. It’s got head and waist pillows with a massage function that sets it apart from other cheap gaming chairs. The backrest can recline between 90 degrees and 180 degrees so you can find the perfect angle, and it also has a retractable footrest for an extra sitting position.
Arozzi Vernazza Series Fabric Gaming Chair — $430 $500 14% off
Another great option for fabric chairs is the Arozzi Vernazza Series Fabric Gaming Chair, and it comes with a little bit more padding than what you might find with other chairs. Also, while the fabric is super soft, it’s also quite durable, so you shouldn’t have to worry about general wear and tear. Another big positive with a more expensive chair is that it can handle a lot more weight, up to 320 pounds, and the armrests are adjustable so that they aren’t constantly digging into you when you sit down.
X Rocker Mysa — $105 $119 12% off
X Rocker is pretty well-known for its rocker chairs that are targeted more toward console gaming, but this newest entry, the Mysa, is oriented more toward PC gaming and gaming chairs. It has a 180-degree tilt and a relatively robust build and is a pretty solid option if you’re looking for something a bit more budget-oriented. It also comes with a mixed leather and fabric cover, instead of the traditional all-leather one, so it’s another option if you want a fabric chair.
Vernazza Series XL Soft Fabric Gaming Chair — $450 $500 10% off
The Vernazza Series XL Soft Fabric Fabric gaming chair is an especially plush chair and great for those who prefer a more cushioned experience; especially since its covered in fabric and has really good cushioning. The design of the chairs follows the more traditional sleek look of a gaming chair, but it does have a couple of vents at the top to keep you cool while also providing some lumbar support. The seat height is adjustable, as is the tilt, of course, and the Arozzi Mugello gaming chair can handle up to 320 pounds, which is one of the highest you’ll see on this list.
X Rocker Bolero Junior — $106 $118 10% off
It’s not often you see a gaming chair targeted to kids, and not only that, but it’s not meant to be used with a desk, but directly plopped down in front of a TV or monitor that’s sitting low to the ground. As such, this is one of the few gaming chairs out there that’s targeted towards playing on the console, and, with a 2.1 surround sound system and vibration motors, which isn’t something you see quite often. It also features in-seat audio controls and jacks for a headphone, although you need to wire the chair directly to take advantage of that.
Dowinx Fabric Gaming Chair — $190 $202 6% off
If you don’t like the traditional faux leather that comes with most chairs, then you’ll be happy to know that Downix actually offers a completely cloth gaming chair, which is pretty unique, if we’re honest. There are all the things you’d expect with a good gaming chair, including the back and head pillows and the ability to adjust the tilt of the back to get a more comfortable position. It can also take up to 200 pounds of weight, so for those who are on the heavier side, this can certainly handle it.
Next Level Racing Formula Lite Pro Foldable Cockpit — $281 $300 6% off
While not the traditional gaming chair that you may see with other parts of this list, the Next Level Racing foldable racing chair is actually pretty interesting and a great budget choice if you want to bring your game to the next level. It can handle most big brands of wheels and pedals, and it has specific holes for Logitech, Thrustmaster, and Fanatec, all of which are some of the most popular out there, so it probably covers what you have. There is also a gear shifter stand which can actually be put on either the right or left side, something that’s pretty rare for budget options, so it’s nice to see here.
