    Really thorough review best you can get without actually getting to try the seat for real. Do they have a showroom anywhere or are they online only?

    Great video. You had mentioned the seat cushion being soft. My current chair was quite cheap and has been good overall. But the seat cushion is very stiff. My rear end will go numb after about 20 minutes of sitting. Does the Boulies provide confort for a decent amount of time in the seat? Thanks very much.

    What really matters it is ability to tilt not only back but sitting place as well. That the main option for gaming chair to my mind.

    Adjustable lumbar support is such a necessary feature. Some chairs try to do it automatically but I find they arent in the right spot for my back. Dunno if I have a funny shape or something. Probably.

    How tall are you?
    I’ve just got the Max and not sure if I should have got the standard. I’m 6ft.
    The sizing is hard to decide for someone 6ft because it’s teetering between both sizes.
    The Max is comfortable but I think I need a slightly shorter Gas lift as I’m getting a little pressure in the back of my legs on the lowest height still.
    Also as good as the lumbar support is I think it needs to be a bit less aggressive as its minimal setting is still poking out the chair a considerable amount.
    This may soften up over time though I’m hoping.

    • @MobileMinded

    I am still not 100% sold on 'gaming' chairs, as its often a word they use as a license to print money by overcharging. This one, however, seems better than most. Its not overly coloured to attract kids, and it seems well made in most places you would want it. Did you work out why one of the armrests is more rattly than the other? is it definitely attached properly?

    • @djoetma
      @djoetma Před 6 měsíci

      Yeah, there s an OEM manufacturer that build it, and allow for some design customizations. Having said this, I never saw a chair with this custom lumbar support. So maybe Boulies got their own design in, or the Chinese OEM manufacturer has introduced a new design.
      The main problem is that ergonomically, these chairs are really questionable.

      They aren't even comparable.. HM offer a superior product with a 12 year parts and labor warranty. These are cheap mass produced gamer chairs from China being marketed with ergonomic gimmicks and a warranty to match.

    excellent review - not sure im 100% sold on this, but ill be interested to see if it holds up long term. The shaky armrest seems unforgivable at the price point but maybe you got a dodgy sample.

    • @cjpartridge
      @cjpartridge Před 6 měsíci

      They're the same dodgy Chinese manufactured chairs that all these companies sell, if you're going to spend money on a chair, get a Steelcase or Herman Miller - at least you get a chair made of quality materials with a warranty to match. Well worth the investment if you're sitting a lot.

    Their website is good. They arent really doing gaming chairs as what I would 'expect' meaning - some sponsored crap with a car or marvel brand and trying to hide a lack of padding, or a means to adjust the chair properly. quite impressed, but until I sit in one, i reserve final judgement.

    My only problem with loads of adjustments available on a chair is that it's really hard to find something that I find comfortable. Once I start fiddling I can never stop and often I'll leave it in a position that ends up giving me a back ache.

    I would never ever buy a PU/leatherette material chair (having owned several in the past). The plastic leather material just disintegrates so quickly and doesn't breathe well. The chair begins looking tatty so quickly with use. Far better to go for cloth version of the chair. Apart from that, this chair seems great.
