Choosing the Right Gaming Chair: Chair Measurements

Choosing the Right Gaming Chair: Chair Measurements

Every gaming chair will have their own unique measurements based on design. This is one of the main factors that will affect the overall feel of the chair. 


Chair Height

Height usually refers to the length of the chair’s back. Chairs with a taller back can accommodate a wider range of heights while chairs with a shorter back tend to be more limited. The placement of the cushion on the back will also play a part in the feel of the chair. We recommend looking at the height supported for the chairs when considering this factor.

Width


This usually is affected by the width of the seat base (although the width of the back can also affect the feel, but not as much as the seat base). The width of the chair will affect how “tight” the chair feels. Some users enjoy a racing car bucket seat feel, which a narrower width can provide. Other users like a wider, more relaxed feel and will prefer a wider chair base. Another factor which affects the width is the cushion design which is explained in ???

Depth

This refers to the length of the seat base and will affect how “deep” the chair feels. In general, those with longer legs will suit chairs with more depth as it can support the length of the legs. However, there is also a personal preference factor as some users like feeling the chair all the way to the back of the knees while some prefer having some space between their knees and the chair.
