CONCLUSION
Just like every time we get a product by a brand new manufacturer i honestly didn't know what to expect by noblechairs and although it's quite rare i was actually quite impressed by the EPIC gaming chair. Now this may not be the ideal chair for large people since it's base and backrest are smaller compared even to the medium-sized Nitro by AKRacing (for example the Nitro has a 37cm wide base and 92cm tall backrest as opposed to the 35cm and 87cm of the EPIC) but the level of quality couldn't get any better (PU leather is nothing new but the one used with the EPIC could be easily mistaken for real) neither could the level of comfort (although thanks to its size the PROX feels a bit more comfortable). Now i have to admit that i was somewhat surprised to see that the EPIC series doesn't feature the same backrest adjustment of up to 180 degrees like most of the gaming chairs we've tested so far but that actually may not be important enough to sway potential buyers (besides how many people would actually sleep on a chair?). Also although I like the suede like material used both on the chair and on the removable pillows I am a bit skeptical about its endurance through time (very soft) but at the end of the day it looks and feels great (premium) so we all liked it. Again what we didn’t like were the two handles ment to be mounted on the height/rocking mechanism since they are not easy to mount nor do they stay in place once you do (this could be isolated to our sample only but there’s no way of us to know that) so I really hope noblechairs takes this into consideration.
As expected a high level of quality and comfort combined with looks are things that the end user is usually called upon to pay a premium for and so currently the EPIC series gaming chair by noblechairs costs no less than 339.90Euros directly from their online page (plus shipping). Now this price tag may sound as much but unless you are looking for a large gaming chair with a backrest adjustment of up to 180 degrees the EPIC by noblechairs is without doubt one of the best models currently in the market and for that we’re giving it our Golden Award.
