Choosing the Right Gaming Chair: Recline and Rocking Features

When it comes to gaming chairs, recline and rocking features are just some of the trademark features that ensure day-long comfort. In this article we explore these features in more depth so you can be informed when making the choice for your perfect chair. 


Recline Feature
Most gaming chairs provide a chair back mechanism that can be reclined up to 165° or 180°, depending on the mechanism of the chair. This enables to user to recline according to their activity. For example, the chair can be adjusted to the most upright position for work and can also be reclined to a more relaxed angle to Netflix and chill.
While 165° is almost flat, some users enjoy using their chair as a power-napping station and may prefer 180° for a more bed-like feel!


Rocking Feature
Aside from reclining, most gaming chairs also have a rocking function which allows the chair to rock back and forth to provide extra comfort for the user. There is also usually a “lock” option if the user does not want to use the rocking function. Some chairs also come with a mechanism that allows for “Tilt locking” whereby the chair can be rocked backwards and locked in a tilted position.
