How to choose the best gaming chair?
It might not be the centerpiece of your set-up, but it is important.
Settling for a kitchen chair is a solution, but between the backrest that creaks in the middle of a strategic conversation and the lack of comfort, you deserve better.
Choosing the right gaming chair means making sure that it will be adapted to the way you play, that it will bring you ease and that it will match your installation.
The style
Primordial for some, negligible for others, the look of your gaming chair remains one of the things that you will notice first when entering your office.
It is a generally imposing piece of furniture that takes up space.
The bucket backrest, reminiscent of racing cars (that's why we talk about a racing chair.) Is now the standard.
It is aesthetic and comfortable.
What remains for you to see is obviously:
The color: if red is still trendy, the pink gaming chair is seen more and more.
Deemed messy, white remains the shade of chic.
As for black, it is timeless.
The details: two-tone, two-material or stitching and atypical designs are on the rise.
Manufacturers understand our need to stand out and they design attractive products with sometimes unique style.
- Le logo : certaines marques l’affichent discrètement, d’autres beaucoup moins, à vous de voir ce que vous préférez.
Le confort
C’est le critère le plus important, surtout si vous êtes un joueur assidu. Vous allez passer des heures devant votre PC, autant le faire confortablement installé. Pour cela il vous faudra prendre en compte certaines caractéristiques :
- La mousse : Plus elle sera dense, plus l’assise sera ferme et moins elle se déformera à l’usage. Cela a un coût, mais un bon fauteuil gamer vous accompagnera pendant de longues années, c’est un bon investissement.
- La matière : Le cuir est très agréable, mais cher. Le similicuir le remplace avantageusement quand il est de qualité, mais il n’est pas respirant. La chaise de gaming tissu est moins facile à nettoyer et plus rare, car moins esthétique, mais elle convient aux endroits chauds.
- La largeur de l’assise :Vérifiez qu’elle est suffisante pour votre morphologie ou votre façon de vous asseoir.
- Le dossier : Il doit être suffisamment large et haut. Les fauteuils gamers sont standardisés et si vous mesurez plus de 1,80 m, il ne sera plus parfaitement adapté. Les marques haut de gamme comme Noblechairs proposent leurs modèles en taille L pour les grands joueurs qui tiennent à leur confort.
- La hauteur de votre bureau : Si celui-ci est standard, ça ne devrait pas être un problème. Quoi qu’il en soit, n’oubliez pas que pour éviter les douleurs, les accoudoirs de votre chaise doivent être à la même hauteur que la surface de travail.
Les critères secondaires
La possibilité d’incliner son fauteuil gamer est un plaisir et beaucoup jugent cette fonctionnalité nécessaire. Si vous y tenez, sachez que 130° d’amplitude est vraiment un minimum. La faculté de pouvoir régler les accoudoirs est importante et la plupart des modèles la proposent. Reste à savoir si vous préférez 4D, 3D ou si vous vous contentez du réglage 2D. Vous aimez vous balancer en écoutant de la musique confortablement installé dans votre fauteuil ? La fonction Rocking chair est faite pour vous. Elle n’est pas très répandue, mais elle a son charme et la possibilité de basculer l’assise ajoute du confort.
Chaise de gaming ou fauteuil de bureau, que choisir ?
Quand on passe des heures installé devant son PC, il faut du matériel adapté. Un siège de qualité est important pour vous aider à adopter une bonne posture. Il évitera les maux de dos et soulagera les articulations de vos bras. Que choisir entre une chaise de gaming et un fauteuil de bureau ? Cela va dépendre de votre usage, de votre budget et de vos goûts personnels. En effet, les fauteuils de bureau sont très confortables et très bien conçus, ils sont donc parfaitement adaptés au jeu vidéo, même intensif. Par contre, à qualité égale, ils sont généralement plus chers. Le choix des gamers se porte aussi souvent sur les chaises inspirées par l’esport à cause de leur look. Le siège baquet, l’allure sportive, les couleurs… le design de ces fauteuils est étudié pour sa cible, mais il ne passe pas inaperçu. Si vous avez un set-up plus sobre, que vous aimez l’élégance ou que vous vous servez aussi de la pièce pour travailler et recevoir, vous sélectionnerez un meuble de bureau classique. Sinon, vous aurez l’embarras du choix parmi les nombreuses marques consacrées au jeu vidéo.
