    Anybody seen one of these in person? Or have one? They look good but I can't find any reviews. Overclockers.co.uk sell them.

    was looking at them myself. youd have a lot more luck asking over on the overclockers forum though . doubt there is many people in ireland with them , they are fairly new

    Thanks for the tip, they have a dedicated thread at overclockers with the noblechairs company rep involved.

    i was looking at gaming chairs last year very nearly pulled the trigger on a dx racer. but i instead went for the Markus chair in ikea
    http://www.ikea.com/ie/en/products/chairs-stools-benches/office-chairs/markus-swivel-chair-glose-black-art-20103101/

    half the price and very good quality i sit in it for at least 5 or six hours a night with no issues

    I've tried the Markus and it's pretty good for the price. The problem for me is that the arms can't be adjusted.

    Which one? No quality issues?

    Black+red, none really, one of the small screws to put the plastic cover one of the chair connectors didnt have a proper x cut into its head, hand saw fixed that. i dont know what to do with myself in it, so many options to get comfortable :)

    Was very tempted to get a DX Racer a few months ago but the price was a bit to on the high side so instead went for a GT Omega instead and am very happy with it.

    As someone who's sitting in a DX Racer (F-Series, I think? The smallest one), it's decent. It's actually not quite as comfortable as I'd hoped, and if I were buying again I'd probably look at something from Maxnomic, or maybe just something decent in Ikea. It's definitely an improvement, but I think the internet exaggerates things a bit (shocker).

    I find the GT Omega to be very comfortable now after I removed the lumbar support cushion. Chair just felt off until I did that :confused:

    I am looking at some chairs in overclockers, but looks like something decent would be at around 300eu.
    I would like to get something up to 200eu myself.

    You lucky gits, who have ikea in Dublin. Feck all here in limerick. I would like to try out chair before buying and obviously you can't do it online. :pac:

    I would prefer chair, where you can adjust back and those straight away go up in price. Don't care about arm rests as my hands are always on a table so I lean back a lot.

    i thought the same but having adjustable armrests at the same level as your desk is actually really nice.

    I was going for this myself first as it wasnt too crazy money

    Find another reason to go to Dublin and your sorted :)

    The Maxnomic (NeedForSeat) is pretty good. I have this one: http://www.needforseat.de/eu_english/shop/pro-gaming--office/maxnomic-dominator-black.php

    Pros:
    • Very comfy.
    • Loads of options for tilt, adjustment, rocking/non-rocking, etc.
    • Leaning back with a controller is gaming heaven.
    • Well constructed and decently easy to put together (though would recommend 2 people for that job).
    • The cushions are really nice, the lumbar one takes a bit of getting used to and adjusting but it does work.
    Cons:
    • There is actually less cushion where your butt sits. This may be a feature for posture, I'm not sure. It doesn't affect me, just an interesting observation.
    • It's actually a little high, It doesn't go down as much as you'd want it to. I'd probably go down a size if I was purchasing again. It's just right for me (5' 11"), but anyone else smaller ends up with dangling legs.
    • A screw was missing to attach some plastic covers for the sides so I just didn't add them, looks no different and attaching them meant screwing into directly into the faux leather with no existing hole. Didn't feel it added anything.

    Definitely worth the investment. Anyone who visits the house comments how comfy it is.

    aww that chair is calling me a fat bastard! :(
    Max ~100 kg
    I'm just big boned, yeah that's it! :o:D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,411 ✭✭✭Icyseanfitz


    im at about the 100kg mark myself and this noble chair is rated at 100kg......heres hoping it holds up haha


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,307 ✭✭✭Xenoronin


    I have literally no doubts that it would take significantly over 100kg to break it (full steel legs of decent thickness). The wonders of engineering safety factors. There is also a slightly sturdier leg frame if that actually managed to put you off it.

    I just got the basic GT Omega Pro off Amazon so can't comment on the other brands but the GT is really heavy and very solid. Nearly killed myself getting the box up the stairs :o


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,407 ✭✭✭✭justsomebloke


    ye, the picture over the right says 100KG but the features says it holds 150KG
