CONCLUSION
COUGAR is known for their gaming peripherals not only because their looks but also because of their performance and good quality so the ARMOR couldn’t stray too far from that and it hasn’t. Build quality is very good (always for a mid-end gaming chair), it packs pretty much every single feature one would want to see from a gaming chair and thanks to its design and color combination it looks very nice (personal opinion). Still there’s room for improvement and we say this because the level of padding especially on the backrest (a bit more on the seat would also be nice) is not what we’ve been used to from similar chairs and so for large and heavy people the ARMOR may not be the right gaming chair for them (COUGAR recommends the ARMOR for people up to 1.80m tall and 75Kg heavy – still we think they are very conservative with those numbers). That’s not to say the ARMOR is not a comfortable chair because it is, all we’re saying is that it could be even more so we truly hope that the upcoming ARMOR S model improves on that.
So just how much is COUGAR currently charging for their ARMOR gaming chair? Actually things are very good here too since you can get the ARMOR for just USD249 inside the USA (Amazon.com) and for just 262.55Euros inside the EU (Amazon.de) a price tag which seems fairly balanced for what you’re getting. That being said design and color combination both play a large role in peoples decision but if you like what you see and can afford it we think that the ARMOR gaming chair by COUGAR is a great choice and for that it gets our Golden Award.
