Okay, saw these on GAME and thought they were worth a post. As a user of a DX Racer, I actually think these look pretty decent for the money. They recline back 180° which is a must for me (Bad back) and it totally helps. Not a fan of a lumbar cushion but they can be removed. Sitting for hours at a desk can be a killer, so being able to make adjustments is always welcomed.
Anyway, overall these are worth a look, they are over £100 everywhere else from what I can see and offer a decent amount of options for the dosh.

WTF ever happened to office chairs. All I ever see are these ridiculous, gaudy plastic bits of tat. I'll do everyone here a favour: save your money, visit IKEA, buy a MARKUS for ~£120, never buy one of these pieces of crap again.

The T on the branding should be substituted for W because you're consigning yourself to self-service only having one of these in your house unless you're already married.

The markus is crap and not worth the money. There are only a few bolts holding the back onto the base and eventually they break and you end up nearly breaking your neck falling backwards out of the chair.
I'll certainly never be buying a markus again that's for sure!

Spot on. I had one of these and they are crap. Went to IKEA and purchased a MARKUS best chair I've owned.

I agree with you, but is there anything similar (good quality and comfortable) that doesn't have cow's skin?

I own the MARKUS and tbh I dont think its that great. I did buy it off the back end of some reviews but the actual seat is not that comfy.

These chairs are not suited to long office hours. But after trying the Markus that too is kind of crap. In my opinion. But I know a lot of people rate it.

Had a faux leather chair before. It peals off in a couple of years. and look shit. Fabric will last longer.

Chairs look horrible with the TANK branded on. Can anyone vouch these chairs are any good?

To be fair mate when you sit on them your butt and back will hide those logos.

Don't know if this is any good or not,but I picked up a x rocker gaming chair for my son which has 4 or 5 spears built in and a sub/vibratation thing built in,and it was £50 new.Online they seem to be around £150 or more.

I consider a "Gaming Chair" to be something like 40-Year-Old-Virgin.
These just look like... "Chair"

I have had one of these for over a month and also have a back, shoulder and neck injuries. I can confirm that they are comfortable and the adjustable cushions are great lumbar and neck supports. I use a slight recline and it also has a tilt function which helps me. Was easy to assemble and arrived very quickly. There are better, more expensive chairs out there but at this price I can't complain.
p.s. I am 15 stone and it hasn't snapped :stuck_out_tongue:
