When we start to play, we can often lose track of time, which is perfectly fine given that we absolutely love to play. That said, sitting in front of a computer for hours and hours isn’t really healthy since it can affect your circulation and hurt your back, which isn’t great at all. That said, having a good gaming chair can help with some of those issues, such as providing lumbar support and more breathability, and some chairs can even help with circulation. Of course, the quality that you get depends a lot on the price, which is why we’ve gone out and collected some of our favorite gaming chair deals for you below across various price brackets.

Homall Massage Gaming Chair — $90, was $210
The Homall Massage Gaming Chair is affordable, but it will get the job done of keeping you comfortable while playing video games with its ergonomic design and high-quality PU leather materials. It’s got head and waist pillows with a massage function that sets it apart from other cheap gaming chairs. The backrest can recline between 90 degrees and 180 degrees so you can find the perfect angle, and it also has a retractable footrest for an extra sitting position.
Arozzi Mugello Special Edition Gaming Chair — $200, was $230
The Arozzi Mugello gaming chair is an especially plush chair and great for those who prefer a more cushioned experience; there is even a flip-up foot or leg rest, which is perfect for kicking back and relaxing. The design of the chairs follows the more traditional sleek look of a gaming chair, but it does have a couple of vents at the top to keep you cool while also providing some lumbar support. The seat height is adjustable, as is the tilt, of course, and the Arozzi Mugello gaming chair can handle up to 250 pounds, which isn’t as much as some other option but is still pretty good.
X Rocker G-Force — $183, was $264
The X Rocker G-Force Gaming Chair not only helps you stay comfortable with its ergonomic design that features lumbar support, an adjustable headrest, and cushioned armrests, but it also elevates the gaming experience with its built-in surround sound system with a subwoofer so you’ll always feel like you’re in the middle of the action. Of course, it’s worth considering that the speakers are facing sideways, so it won’t be the perfect experience, but if you want ambient sound, it’s an excellent option. The gaming chair also offers RGB lighting for a stylish way of playing your favorite video games.
Next Level Racing GT Lite Foldable Simulator Cockpit — $200, was $230
While not the traditional gaming chair that you may see with other parts of this list, the Next Level Racing foldable racing chair is actually pretty interesting and a great budget choice if you want to bring your game to the next level. It can handle most big brands of wheels and pedals, and it has specific holes for Logitech, Thrustmaster, and Fanatec, all of which are some of the most popular out there, so it probably covers what you have. There is also a gear shifter stand which can actually be put on either the right or left side, something that’s pretty rare for budget options, so it’s nice to see here. Just be aware that you need a My Best Buy Plus or Total membership to get the $30 discount.
X Rocker Torque — $225, was $317
The X Rocker Torque is a bit unique in that it’s made to be seated lower than your average gaming chair, so it’s not meant to be used with a desk but directly plopped down in front of a TV or monitor that’s sitting low to the ground. As such, this is one of the few gaming chairs out there that’s targeted towards console players, and it’s quite a premium option at that, with a 2.1 surround sound system and vibration motors, which isn’t something you see quite often. It also features in-seat audio controls and jacks for a headphone, although to take advantage of that, you do need to wire the chair directly.
Corsair T3 Fabric Gaming Chair — $290, was $320
If you don’t like the traditional faux leather that comes with most chairs, then you’ll be happy to know that Corsair actually offers a completely cloth gaming chair, which is pretty unique, if we’re honest. There are all the things you’d expect with a good gaming chair, including the back and head pillows and the ability to adjust the tilt of the back to get a more comfortable position. It can also take up to 264 pounds of weight, so for those who are on the heavier side, this can certainly handle it.
Next Level Racing Elite Gaming Leather Chair — $335, was $400
If you’d like a nicer gaming chair made of leather and don’t want to spend a ton of money, the Next Level Racing Elite chair is a perfect mid-range option with a few features to boot. For example, it has a 135-degree incline and can handle a very impressive 308 pounds, so it’s perfect for those who are a bit on the bigger side. Another big plus is that the armrests are movable in several directions, meaning you can move them up or down, left or right, and in or out, which is great for those who struggle with armrests that eat into a waist or are too low and uncomfortable to rest on for long periods.
AKRacing Masters Series Premium Gaming Chair — $418, was $549
The AKRacing Masters Series Premium Gaming Chair is made out of premium-quality automotive-grade polyurethane leather upholstery that will look great for years, and it features an adjustable backrest with an up to 180-degree recline, along with head and lumbar support cushions. The ergonomic racing-style seat will support your upper legs to prevent straining, and its 3D adjustable armrests will make sure that your arms and hands will be in a comfortable position.
