Respawn 900 Gaming Recliner Chair with Footrest, Cup Holder and Swivel

Our chair arrived one day prior to the estimated delivery date—a welcomed surprise. The chair is striking and looks exactly as pictured (red/black recliner). It feels and looks like leather but has a chemical smell. Which leads me to believe it’s pleather instead of leather. It smells like a new car but a bit more chemical-ly if that makes sense. My fiancé doesn’t mind the smell but I have a sensitive nose compared to his. It’s not overpowering and I suspect the smell will dissipate in a few weeks.The handles work smoothly and are not difficult at all. Some folks complained that they heard squeaking or the handles took muscle to operate. That’s not the case with ours. When we assembled the chair we made sure the screws were tightened well but not “so tight using all the strength we have” or we heard it would cause squeaking.The chair swivels and reclines. It does not rock. The foot rest is a nice feature when you just want to lay back and watch some tv. The head pillow does require adjustment for people 5’9 or above. My fiancé is 5’9 so when he sits in the chair he simply lifts it up higher. I’m 5’2 and it automatically sits perfectly at the base of my neck when I sit back. His feet do hang over a bit (a good foot) when the foot rest is extended but it’s still comfortable for him.The side pocket is a nice feature but it’s velcro’d under the armrest. It’ll hold your tv remote and maybe a few other small items but if the bag gets too heavy the velcro starts to detach. I would’ve preferred metal button attachments to secure the bag.The drink holder is a good average size. Fits a beer bottle/soda can/drinking glass with no problem.The bucket seat is on the cozier side. I weigh 135 lbs and the chair leaves about 4“ gaps on both sides. It makes me feel safe and secure in the chair, as it feels like a comfortable fit. My fiancé is about 190 lbs/medium build and the chair fits him cozier, leaving about 1-2” gaps on both sides. The chair looks like it was custom tailored to his width.My fiancé does sweat a bit when he games and since leather or pleather does not breathe, the chair gets warm or wet from the sweat. It doesn’t bother him because he used to sweat on the last chair he had. It hasn’t bothered him enough to lay down a towel or anything yet but we do gently wipe the chair down to remove the sweat.Overall, the chair is comfortable for gaming, reading, or watching TV. I wish they added a lumbar pillow for lower back support but that’s an easy fix with putting a small pillow back there. It’s a great chair and we’re very happy with the purchase. My fiancé really likes it. I’ll give an update in 6 mos. or so on how it’s doing & wear/tear. But so far, we highly recommend it.

Really awesome and high quality chair! Pretty easy assembly and feels very quality. My only complaints are the chair is pretty short and I haven’t found a way to raise it up (hopefully I’m just dumb and there is a way). Last complaint is the two handles on the side get locked into place and are very hard to put down.. not huge deals but do need to be mentioned. Overall a really awesome chair for the price and very comfortable!

This has been by-far the best computer chair I have purchased. It is very comfortable to sit and relax in, it took 8 bolts and 6 nuts to assemble, and the transition from reclined to up-right is smooth. Everything was in perfect condition out of the box. I've seen some reviews of damaged goods, I am not in that category.However, as a person who likes to game and for those of you who have taller desks, here are some things to know before you purchase.The seat when you are fully up-right is still angled slightly back, meaning you are always being pulled towards the back of your seat. Now this does make things more comfortable when you are just relaxing, but if you are playing a game, and like me tend to lean forward, not so easy in this chair.The chair dose not raise or lower. It is fixed at one height, so if you have a higher desk, I would not recommend this chair for you. If you can control the height of your desk, then you should be ok.Lastly, the handle you use to extend the foot rest protrudes slightly past the chair. On occasion you could knock your leg on it which is a little annoying.Overall I gave the chair a 5/5 because it is a solid chair. However, for a well rounded chair for gaming, I would give it a 4/5. Hope this helps someone trying to decide what chair to pick.

It was easy to put it together by myself. I am 6 foot tall and 194lbs. Got it because my normal chair gives me back pain after couple of hours do to my recent scoliosis. Now I can play PS4 all day without back pain. My feet hang out but thats ok because this is a reclining chair and not a sofa. The back does not come up to full 90 degree. The padding could be slightly better in my opinion. The leather feels good and the color is good. The handle mechanism is clunky for the foot rest and for the back its good. Spins easily. I highly recommend this chair for gaming if you have back problems or want to prevent them.UPDATE 09/11/2020 My seat fell in do to increased use during this pandemic. As people mentioned before that their seat falls in, I confirm this. There is elastic bands under the seat that stretch out of range eventually. What I did is I bought a simple seat cushion and slid it between the bands. Then I used an old waist belt, wrapped it as the bands to give more resistance. Done. Like new!

I got this chair used and it arrived the very next day. The colors look great, the chair is comfortable and it feels good and sturdy, it makes almost no noise when spinning around and only small amounts when moving the legs out. It takes almost not effort to spin myself around but it also stays in place really well so far. And it was super easy to put together, with only minor issues getting holes to line up. These issues were easily fixed with an extra pair of hands (courtesy of my 7 year old daughter)All in all, it looks amazing, feels great, and came together super quick. It's the perfect chair for the gamer dad. The only thing I'll say is that if you're taller, it may not be the best. I'm 5'7 and it's perfect for me, but my brother is 6'0 and the legrest is too short for him.

I'm very impressed with what I received.However, I decided a few things right away.My previous chair was more of an office style chair and it had height adjustments. I am going to keep that chair as it is much better when I want to be on PC.As far as lounging around watching TV or console gaming in a laid back setting. This chair is amazing.So my summary is if you are someone that leans forward or hovers over a keyboard, I would not recommend this chair. It's just not quite the right design for it.Watching TV or console gaming, I would highly recommend this. Even if you lean forward in an intense FPS shooter situation, once you go back to lobby, it's very relaxing.Is it worth the money? For sure, however it depends on your taste.I will see if this brand makes a separate chair more suited for what I need. I would definitely purchase another Respawn chair.The cup holder and pouch aren't really necessary. I'd rather just have the entire armrest instead of a cup holder.Hope this helps

This chair is fantastic totally worth the price.It’s super easy to assemble, it looks great and most importantly it’s sooo comfortable!The independent levers to bring out the leg rests and recline the seat back making it easy for you to find your perfect seating position. Not to mention the foam in it is really dense and supportive while still being soft and mailable.If you can read instructions then you can put this chair together. It’s literally only 6 steps to put this together. It comes with all the necessary tools to put it together and even spare screws and washers in case you lose one.The one thing I think this chair could benefit from is a lower lumbar pillow. Depending on your seating position your lower back may start to get tired however I found that I was able to easily remedy this problem by adjusting the seat back.If you game for hours on end like myself I highly recommend this chair. It’s relatively compact and swivels so it’s great for pc gamers and console games alike.

Very cool looking chair , seat feels comfortable and the back does recline to find that sweet spot position. The leg rest feels cheap and weak and it angles down , doesn't bring my legs up to the position I like in a recliner. Chair does swivel easy , makes it nice for VR sessions while sitting but swivel to much when using leg rest. Material feels weak and I'm sceptical if it will hold up but time will tell. Cup holder and controller bag are a nice addition. I would say if your on the heavy side like me 220+ probably won't hold up but if you are lighter weight this chair might be a good option for any game room.

Great chair, exactly what i wanted. Comfortable but firm at the same time, easy to assemble (took me 15 minutes) . Perfect size for me ( I'm 6ft ) . Handles work good if your read how to use them. Many positions for the back. But it is not a chair to game with the desk. You cant regulate the height and if you want to use it for PC - it is only if you have the desk of a specific height or you play like me - with keyboard on my laps or just a console joystick
