CONCLUSION
The TGC20 gaming chair by ThunderX3 is the very first sample to arrive by them in our lab and at the end of the day it really left us with mixed impressions. On one hand you have a nice looking chair (available currently in 4 different color combinations) with relatively good quality materials and a couple of good features such as 2D armrests, flame retardant PU leather cover and a plywood frame but due to its rather small size it would be really hard for us to recommend it to adults such as ourselves. Now we all know that the class-4 gaslift can support around 130kg more (150kg total) but we doubt the frame of the chair can handle that and even if it did its measurements (especially the somewhat short backrest) and the lack of a backrest adjustment mechanism (serious drawback for us) make things impractical for adults (especially large sized ones). Basically we think that thanks to its design and compact size the TGC20 is the ideal chair for young gamers but it wasn’t really designed with grownups in mind.
As I type these lines the TGC20 Gaming Chair by ThunderX3 may not be available inside the USA but it is available inside the EU for a price of 179.90Euros from Caseking.de. This price tag puts the TGC20 among the most affordable gaming chairs currently in the market and we feel that it’s quite balanced and fair after taking into account its build quality and available features compared to all the higher end models that have reached our lab. Long story short we feel that the TGC20 is right for young gamers (and we do recommend checking it out if you are one) out for an affordable yet great looking gaming chair but for adults one of the higher end models would be a much better choice.
