CONCLUSION

   Over the course of 10 years I’ve used 2 types of desk chairs in the office up until this day, regular ones that cost anything between 70-120Eur and ergonomic ones that cost quite a bit more (300-500Eur). Unfortunately I’ve found that the most comfort comes not from those chairs but from a nice armchair/sofa chair but as you can all understand these aren't practical since they can't be used with a desk (console gaming perhaps). This is why i was very skeptical when the Nitro Gaming Chair by AK Racing made it on our doorstep. Now i have driven many sports cars and even my own comes with similar design seats but i think you'll all agree with me when i say that it's a whole different thing to drive your car for a few hours at most with sitting in front of your desk for the largest part of a day. Luckily AK Racing took that into account when designing their gaming chairs and so thanks both to the sufficient padding with the two removable pillows and the mechanism (rocking function and backrest tilt) the result is extremely good. We've actually been using the chair for roughly 2 months now and it's still good as new (ever since i got it in my office however i fight to keep my cats from scratching it). It may take some getting used to if you haven’t been inside a sports car seat or a bucket seat but the end result is worth it. Unfortunately unlike sports car seats the Nitro Gaming Chair is covered with synthetic (leatherette) and not real leather and although I’d really like that i have to admit that it would be somewhat hard to accomplish in that price range and with all the features offered. I do however believe that AK Racing could and should had placed more and softer padding on the armrests since although quite comfortable they do feel slightly out of place compared to the rest of the chair.

   Nowadays price is one of the things that define a good desk chair and that couldn’t be truer in the case of the Nitro Gaming Chair by AK Racing since it currently retails for USD349.99 inside the USA (4GamerGear) and for 279Euros inside the EU (directly from AK Racing Europe). In the end if you can i strongly recommend checking one of these chairs up close since although we all liked it that doesn't necessarily mean you will too (you most likely will). For us however the Nitro Gaming Chair is well worth our Golden Award and we really hope we will get to test more chairs from AK Racing to see if their more expensive models really have more to offer.
