ADX Race19 Gaming Chair

Product Information

The ADX CHAIR16 is equipped with a pneumatic height adjustment mechanism, enabling users to easily adjust the height of the chair to their desired level. The dense, firm foam found beneath the material isn’t quite as mouldable as some memory foam alternatives, and you won’t quite sink into the chair over time, but that’s actually better for back support. While it allows you to find the perfect position for your setup, the arms don’t lock into place and will often slide forwards/backwards with a bit of pressure from leaning. Basic chairs tend to have only height adjustment, but it’s well worth going for a chair that has a reclining back and adjustable armrests, too.

In addition, the chair has a tilt mechanism that allows users to adjust the backrest angle, providing flexibility and comfort for different activities such as working, reading, or relaxing. It also includes adjustable levers for height and tilt, as well as the ability to rotate 360 degrees. PU fabric is thicker than you’ll find on most chairs, though the Icon is proportionally more expensive for it.The mechanism is built directly into the backrest of the chair, and a simple turn of the knob on the side of the chair provides granular control over the level of support you feel, while a second dial lets you adjust the height of the lumbar support too. At the entry level, the cheap foam may feel ok to start with (some manufacturers use recycled foam scraps), but it might lose its structure and therefore its support before long, while high-quality foam will retain its shape and also support heavier users. Sporting a bucket seat design with a thick lower cushion and wing support on either side, AndaSeat utilised its car seat experience designing the Dark Demon. There’s also a unique asynchronous gravity-driven tilt mechanism that allows gamers to frequently change position without the need to use controls.

An ergonomic chair shouldn’t need these, but some people might find they’re needed for the best fit and comfort.

While more expensive chairs might provide a slightly more luxurious experience, we had no problem using the ADX Race19 for extended periods of time. You’ll also find an inflatable lumbar support built into the backrest, pumped via a handpump tucked into the base of the bottom of the chair.We’ve tested the chairs here with tall and short people, and both large and slim builds, but we can’t guarantee that you will find it comfy. Its height and tilt angle can be easily adjusted for the perfect position - enjoy those long gaming sessions without the annoying back pains. In terms of comfort and support, the Edge GX1 is unbeaten, but it’s not the perfect gaming chair – not yet, anyway. British firm Dualhawk is the latest player to enter the gaming chair market, and it has come out swinging with the high-end Dualhawk Ultra – a direct competitor to premium chairs from the likes of Secretlab and Noblechairs.

The chair also includes adjustable lumbar support, allowing users to customize the level of support to their preference. Since gaming chairs have a gas strut for height adjustment, plus other moving parts, it’s feasible that something might fail. It offers height adjustment, 85-165 degree recline, rocking and 4D adjustable armrests with metal buttons that add to the premium feel of the chair. Our resident Apple expert, Lewis covers everything from iPhone to AirPods, plus a range of smartphones, tablets, laptops and gaming hardware. At its minimum setting, it’s around 50cm from the floor, meaning you may want to use a footrest if you’re shorter than around 5ft7.

This is combined with a memory foam-moulded seat base designed to relieve pressure on the tailbone to provide the highest level of comfort possible.

Gaming chairs are important though, especially since many of us now work all day from the same chair we game in. The S300 offers 130mm of height adjustment along with 14 degrees of rocking, allowing you to rock gently in the chair using your body weight. However, comfort is still very much a priority, with the PU leather and moulded foam design providing plenty of support. When it comes to materials, the chair is clad in durable synthetic PVC leather, with a layer of memory foam to keep you comfortable.

Perhaps understandable given the name, the design is reminiscent of what you might find behind the wheel of a sports car. Customisability is another strength, offering a wide 85-175 degree tilt, adjustable height, and 4D armrests that are smooth, subtly contoured, and wide enough to comfortably rest on. The chair is also equipped with armrests, providing support for the arms and reducing strain on the shoulders and neck.
