    I've got a SecretLab Omega I've had for about 5 or 6 years now.
    Pretty similar but doesn't have the fancy lumbar support mechanism, just a removable lumbar cushion.
    Absolutely rock solid build quality. Had no issues with it.
    Pro tip, upgrade the castors to rollerblade castors for an even nicer experience.
    I got locking ones for mine so I can use it with a wheel stand and pedals for sim racing without rolling backwards when I brake.

    I have the older version of this and really like it. The head pillow feels really nice, but is almost useless with the stap that tries to hold it to the chair, so the magnetic pillow would be great. Also the improved lumbar support and changeable armrests kind of makes me want to upgrade.

    I bought my Secretlab Titan 2-3 Years ago and it's still a fantastic chair. You need some time to get used to the quite huge size of this chair (I'm about 178cm tall) but now I don't wanna miss this one. Especially due to the COVID home office and home studying situation, I spend an average of 10-12 Hours a day, 7 days a week in this chair. The only issue I have so far are the armrests, where the material on one of those gave up. Sadly the older versions are not hot-swappable, so the 2022 version looks darn nice to me.

      Main problem, at least with the 2020 model, is that armrests tear up on the sides for many people during first or second year of use.
      It's most likely moisture/temperature fluctuation issue so if you don't sweat on it, might be fine.
      Support is likely to do a one-time "free" replacement.

    I have one of the first generations of the TITAN chairs from 2017 and in the 4 years I've had the chair, it's held up BIG time. I have the standard Titan and even though I'm over the weight limit by 30 or 40 pounds, it's held up over 4 years of almost constant use from a lot of working from home. The features they've added in over the years have really upped the value you get from it. I've had to replace the arm rest covers once already (and have to do it again) so seeing them put in the magnetic arm rest cover part is an amazing feature to have. The headrest being magnetic? Better than the strap on version that I have with mine.
    All in all, a damn good chair that has grown with every iteration. When I have to replace mine, definitely getting another Secret Lab!\

    I have two 2020 Series Titan chairs, and that tells you I love mine. I used my original all through the pandemic, and a lot of my tailbone issues went away. Transitioning back to the office, I just couldn't go back to my okay-ish chair, so I got another. They feel pretty hard to start, but once you're past the break-in period (around a week or two), they feel just right for long computer sessions. I haven't tried any of the other brands, but these are excellent for me, and I guess that's all that matters.

    Coming from a long term secret lab user the one issue you’ll likely run into is armrest wear.
    I’ve had the rubber crack/break off and was told by their customer service it’s considered “normal wear and tear” despite it happening within the first 6 months.
    Arm rests will eventually wear out as well causing them to rotate more freely.

    Picked up a Titan 2021 in March and also got a Herman Miller Aeron at the same time. I needed a chair for my personal PC for gaming, and a chair for my office. I tried both out to decide which gets used for what. The Aeron is the most comfortable chair I have ever bought, but it doesn't work for me with gaming. It is great for sitting back and just enjoying the comfort. Since much of my day is spent in conf calls, the Aeron is perfect for work. For gaming I couldn't get the Aeron to really adjust to sit front and center properly. It does tilt forwards, but it's kinda awkward to try and game like that. The Titan however is pretty stiff and straight. You can certainly recline, but it props your body up as an L shape and makes gaming for me really enjoyable. The chair is incredibly stiff, and I was a bit worried I would hate it because I didn't sink into it like my Aeron and previous leather chair. But after 2 months my body is used to the chair, it's a bit more broken in and I absolutely love the Titan for gaming. Every time I sit in it, the lumbar and stiff fit feels more like a glove. I got the softweave because every pleather and leather chair I have after 8 years has major issues. I'll see if the softweave has the same fate.

  • @YouBetterCallSaul
    @YouBetterCallSaul Před rokem +1

    As someone who’s owned a Titan XL for 2 years almost to the day - these chairs are NOT comfortable for a big guy. I’m 6’6 bounce between 285-300lbs for the holidays lol. They even advertise it’s stiff and hard bc it will break in over time…it doesn’t break in…it will break but it will not break in comfort wise. The arm pad cracked horizontally within 3-4 months of owning it and just about a month ago the other one did also. Wide spread common issue with these and SecretLabs did send me new pads for free since it’s under warranty. Just a week ago I was leaning back pewdiepie style and the tilt mechanism broke and it was stuck in this crazy position. Turns out the cast aluminum frame cracked where the spring pushed against to give you the tilt function when you want to lean back. Not the reclining function but the actual tilt you can lock and unlock. To my surprise secret labs asked if I could separate the piston and base…I couldn’t without damaging the chair with a hammer so they just sent me everything from the parts that attach to the bottom cushion to the casters. Their customer support has been stellar in my experience but for a $600 chair I expected more comfort. I highly recommend you extend the warranty by posting your chair online for the free 3 year warranty that kicks in after the 2 year warranty expires.

    I truly believe the removable armrest is due to the fact they were having issues with the material cracking along the side of vinyl over time.

  • @Brawler365

    An honest review for those looking to pick this chair up:
    I picked up a Softweave version of the TITAN Evo 2022 after watching this video, and boy-howdy was the thing the most firm chair I ever sat in. I was not in severe pain after sitting in it for hours like I was with my NeedForSeat I'd had for years, but I was absolutely not comfortable either. I wanted to like it for the nearly two weeks I had it, but I needed to either put up with it like my other chair or be honest with myself. The lumbar adjustment is much more limited than it seems, and the plastic inside started creaking a bit by the time I sent it back ($150 for UPS ground shipping by the way, which is NOT covered by the return policy). I tend to lean back when I watch CZcams or am not actively using the keyboard, and I kept turning to my side after a bit to try and get more padding from my shoulder. I do also have a standing desk, so I would take breaks from sitting, and that didn't help much either. Also, I don't know if for whatever reason the material would make THAT much of a difference, but I doubt it. Plus, I live in the Desert, so I'd prefer something more breathable.
    If you're happy with the chair, all the better! I'd say this is an improvement over most other chairs in the gaming category, and I do hope a lot of the reviews are genuine. Do keep in mind that Secretlab offers a free warranty extension for posting a review of the chair when you are looking at ratings for the chair.
    I picked up a Steelcase Leap V2 from an office furniture liquidation place for close to the same price, bit over $500 USD, after trying it out and immediately feeling like this would provide the support I needed. I recommend to see what Herman Miller or Steelcase chairs are nearby your area, go test them out wherever you can being the most important thing, and make your decision from there. Temper your expectations, because its not like sitting on cloud nine, but it feels like I am getting what I need from a chair I sit in all stinkin day.
    Hopefully this helps!

It doesn't have the moveable lumbar support, instead it has a lumbar pillow and the headpillow straps over the headrest area. Other than that and the non-swappable armrest covers and the slightly smaller size (Omega line is smaller), it's pretty close to the same.

Also, the warranty is good, if you follow thier guidelines you can get an extra 3 years of it extended.
    The things I changed on my chair:
    It doesn't have the swappable arm rests and the arm rests that come with it are not very cushiony but that's easily solved with some 3rd party arm rest covers from amazon.
    the head rest cushion on mine is not magnetic, but i never use it anyway, only my 7 yr old would use it because he is much smaller than me. last thing, I also got a set of replacement wheels, so instead of plastic they are now roller blade wheels, the plastic wheels can eventually scuff and leave marks on the floor.
