    Ordinary seat, high price

    The seat is unremarkable (no more, no less), you can find something better in the same price range, and you'll be paying for the branding.

    I've had a broken piston (I'm 100kg so I'm way underweight), I've had broken wheels, but that's normal (and I was waiting for that to see how long they would last) so I've got a set of rubber wheels (roller style), It's a blast, a pushchair and you're at the other end of the barracks in Holliday on Ice mode ), and then it was the star-shaped foot that broke in TWO places (micro-crack, which spreads out when I sit on it).

    The problem is mainly with the brand and not LDLC, because a replacement part costs an arm and a leg!

    So "neutral" balance sheet Better wheels would have been cool. And as for the piston, I don't hold it against them, it's just that there was a rough transport etc.)

    Comfort

    This chair is one of the most comfortable chairs I've tested in a very long time. After 3 years, the chair hasn't moved an inch and it's still great!

    Expensive for the outdated quality of this seat

    Lasted barely 18 months, crumbling armrests, seat with mediocre density foam (not even mentioned in the description) that sags at the sides, and all this for a user weighing less than 45 kg. It's a disgrace to sell gamer seats with a catchy ........ design at this price!

    this chair is easy to assemble and quite comfortable for the price, with plenty of adjustments.

    Very disappointed.

    Seat keeps going down, the backrest doesn't sit properly. Very deeply disappointed with this seat. Will be replaced very quickly. By another brand.

    Top at first glance

    Smooth delivery :)
    The parcel (26kg) was sent and received via a third-party transport company, which was very professional.
    I don't know many delivery companies who phone to arrange the day and time of delivery.

    However, the chair was packaged in the original AK Racing box, so no LDLC goodies as a gift :(
    It's a shame, given the price of the chair and the festive season...

    Easy to assemble despite instructions that are sometimes hard to decipher :)
    The chair is a bit heavy, and the instructions have a few typos (nut numbers that don't match...).

    The cushions (head and lumbar) are attached with elastic straps :/.
    To be seen over time, but I'm afraid I'll have to do some sewing in a year or two.
    In use, the foams are sufficiently firm and soft. I've got into the habit of using the lumbar cushion, whereas on other chairs I found it uncomfortable.

    Best seat of my life!

    There's nothing to fault about this high-quality, comfortable, well-built product. The quality justifies the price, and I highly recommend this item.

    AKRacing Core EX gaming chair (black)

    Armchair arrived on time Very good product Robust materials and impeccable adaptability I'm less than 160m tall and all the adjustments went without a hitch. Assembly took less than an hour. I'm delighted!
    LDLC are always at the top of their game, both online and in shop (thanks to the salesman in Annecy who gave me such good advice!)

    Very comfortable

    The delivery was quick and trouble-free.
    The chair is very good, great support and very comfortable.
    I don't use the lumbar cushion or the headrest, which I don't find very useful.
