INTRODUCTION

   Although the PC gaming community dates as far back as the late 80's / early 90's it took nearly two full decades for gamers to witness and enjoy the big bang in the gaming peripherals market. What really stands out however is the just how fast gaming chairs have managed to climb in both popularity and sales compared to pretty much every other gaming peripheral out there (especially if you take into account their comparably higher prices). That being said it's quite understandable that every single person that spends countless hours in front of a screen would be interested in getting a good gaming chair (and yes not just gamers) so both their popularity and sales numbers do make sense. Arozzi is one of the leading gaming chair manufacturers in the EU (perhaps even the world) and today we'll be trying out their latest Inizio Gaming Chair.

   Arozzi is a Swedish company founded in 2013. Arozzi gaming chairs are built in the spirit of Esports and feature ergonomic design with high levels of comfort. Our products have a refined aesthetic that draws inspiration from the world of motorsports. Each Arozzi chair can be finely adjusted to your needs to ensure you are in the best position achieve your next victory, whatever the game!

   The brand new Inizio by Arozzi is yet another cost-effective gaming chair which lands just over their Monza and Enzo lines and right next to their Milano line. Now the good news is that unlike the Monza, Enzo and Milano lines which feature fixed armrests and backrests the Inizio offers height and rotation adjustable armrests and an adjustable backrest which falls roughly 140-150 degrees. The Inizio also features a cover made out of breathable fabric (ideal if you have cats or dogs at home like we do), metal frame for increased durability, 60mm nylon caster wheels, class-4 gaslift (supports up to 105kg), height adjusting mechanism, 5 star aluminum base and as expected it also comes with removable neck and back pillows (also dressed in breathable fabric). For good or bad the Inizio was not designed with large people in mind since leaving out its medium sized backrest (82.5cm tall) the somewhat small amount of foam padding used (35Kg/m3 for the seat and 30Kg/m3 for the backrest) is not something we've seen many times in the past.
