CONCLUSION
I don’t really know whether or not manufacturers release gaming chairs with breathable fabric covers for people with pets but what I do know is that the one I do have at home has survived for over 2 years with 3 cats constantly climbing on it and scratching it so at least for me models like the Inizio (which are quite rare in this industry) are a one way (did try using a cover on a gaming chair with PU leather cover and that didn’t work). That being said although the Inizio offers things that not many others do in its price range (like an adjustable back rest and adjustable armrests) the somewhat limited amount of foam padding did leave a mixed impression. Sure the chair is still quite comfortable but nowhere near what it could have been with more padding (we did like what AK Racing did with the Prime model in that specific area) and with most gamers spending many hours in front of their PC screens ample foam padding is never a bad thing.
At the end of the day however we also need to take into account the price of a gaming chair and since the Inizio Gaming Chair currently retails for just 219Euros inside the EU (Directly from Arozzi) it’s quite understandable that Arozzi couldn’t had used the same amount of foam padding as with their more expensive models. Long story short the Inizio was ment to be a cost-effective chair featuring some of the things we usually find in higher-end models and although it’s obviously not award-winning material it still deserves your attention if you’re looking for a gaming chair covered in fabric which will not set you back by much.
