InleidingEnige time I was already looking for a new seat because my 9-year-old chair of the Aldi now so doorgezeten that it was me after a few hours in a row gaming a pain in my bottom, worried. In addition, I know and I feel that I have a bad attitude guess when I’m at my PC. This is expressed by means of bonded neck and headache.

At first I had my budget limited and thus deliberately not sought on this kind of gamingstoelen. After a few shops, visited with regular office chairs I came across, but a chair that immediately were comfortably seated. This was a similar race execution as gamingstoelen are carried out.
Because I only completed. n of could find, I have quite stieken my eyes on the gamingstoelen rolled and came up quickly with DXracer and AKracing.

Because the experience from my search for me showed that I still have a lot of difference feel in terms of comfort with different seats I wanted first chair feel before I make a purchase would do.
Unfortunately, there are not many shops in the Netherlands, correction, is completed. n store in the Netherlands that a few seats in the shop built. Coincidentally I had a day for work to Eindhoven where the store is located.

Enough introduction, on to the product!First indrukDirect when I sat down and felt the chair good. The session gave me good feedback so I didn’t come down in the chair. You could say that it is nicer if you are sinking in the seat, but if you concentrated upright sitting is a firm seat with good suspension is more important.
By the lumbar support cushion, it felt very forced. After this weggepakt to have felt a lot more relaxed.

The lining is made of fabric. This also has my preference, considering leather/PU rather sticky and sweaty in heat. In the shop, I also have the AKracing Nitro tried. This is the same chair, but with PU coated. This is confirmed as my preference. For me it felt immediately like I was a piece to the front slid (over-expressed).

My choice was made. The K7012, but also immediately ordered to the store in my hometown to be delivered.UnboxingDe box is fairly large in size and weighs 25kg. He is portable, but difficult to hold if you’re not already too big.

Once you have the box open is the leg on top. This is well packaged in bubble wrap. Please note that you are not too keen with a knife the box open cuts because there is no protection between the top of the box and the leg. Here had what in my opinion is a piece of cardboard between us for protection.

Under the leg is a piece of cardboard. Below you will find the backrest, seat, cushions and a box with kleinmateriaal.

In the box with kleinmateriaal is also a manual. About this I have read that the step of removing the red cap on the stoelveer was missing so many people this cap, let sit. They have the manual now improved by “Step 2” to add.
However, it was lacking to me the red cap on the spring.

In the box; the spring, wheels, gloves, tighten the bolts with the allen keys, cover plates, and the coupling to the seat on the spring.

Apologies for the blurry photo.Assembly and bouwkwaliteitHet mounting of the seat is relatively fast. There is a guide in which on the basis of photos shows how the chair is assembled it should be. The manual expresses himself clearly.

After I install the seat had mounted and am sitting down I noticed that the right arm crooked. At that moment I got a moment to breath and was afraid of the handrail, curved o.i.d. would be.
After the chair on his back, is laid to have proved the armrest from the factory incorrectly assembled.

This is the left arm rest, as this is supposed to be.

In the right armrest, the inner bolts first tightened making it too deep to be seen.

Fortunately, this was easy to solve; first, the inner bolts loosen and rotate. Then the outer bolts completely tighten. Now you can get the inner bolts again, tighten them. The armrest is now law. Not a disaster, so happy.
This point does not detract from the build quality, but they were here at assembly or better are allowed to watch!

You can use the armrest a bit to indoor places, in the direction of the seat. I myself have let them stand as they are from the factory, the widest position.

I also find the screw that the piece of plastic of the backrest-lever sticks a thorn in the eye in terms of looks.

Here they had to be in my opinion a black screw for use or better yet, on the inside fixed screws so that it is not visible at all.

Tip for mounting of the cover plates of the backrest hinges; adjust the backrest a little to the rear, then the cover easier to secure.

The cushions are by means of rubber bands for the backrest attached. It can be easy to do, but also easy to pick up.

The chair is ready now ready.
At the latest and please use the chair is large, but by its looks it looks narrower and more elegant than a traditional office chair.

For the first time, sit on my own chair I got that forced is feeling with the lumbar support pillow in my back. When I kiss way get feels a lot more relaxed. My wife is also in this opinion.

What is immediately noticeable is that the armrests are smooth and not horizontally adjustable. By this I mean that you can’t get them to the front and rear can slide. This would be a handy addition to have been considering you get the back rest to the back can throw. Are the armrests adjustable in height.

The lumbar support cushion with two elastic bands from top to bottom to the backrest. The easy thing about it is that you are the pillow in this way to up and down scrolling to place them on the place where it is good for you.

The backrest can be completely flat making it suitable to use during LAN parties just an hour to rest .
Also, the seat back tilt d.m.v. the spring-lever to the outside to pull.

Because the chair is upholstered in the fabric of bag you will not go away as the hours pass. At my previous (PU) seat, I fell as time off so you end up unconsciously slumped in the chair. I have this chair in the first few days experienced. However, I got to in the course of time without lumbar support pain to my back. I have then the pillow behind my back to put a different attitude to force.
Time to see if I suffer from keep keep and or this is on my current learned attitude.

The wheels go relatively smoothly when you’re on the chair. This ensures that you can’t just roll away once you are at your desk. Personally, I find useful, but if you have lots of rolls and need to move, this can be as annoying to be experienced.

The spring is strong, which ensures that you do not have centimeters and collapses when you click on the chair sit down. This I had in my old seat, however, what is sometimes annoying.ConclusieMijn conclusion overall is so far, so good.
The time should show whether I this conclusion stay or not. I hope personally that my attitude is going to change now that I have this chair in have and in the end we also have less problems with neck and headaches.
I hope over the next few weeks/months this review to update with positive or negative additions.

I have completed. n star in both “Build quality and finish” as “Price” is deducted because I still blame find that completed. n they are not installed properly and because they are such a strange choice to have made with the screw from the backrest lever. This is not in relation to the price I think. If the chair cheap have been I had this probably not so critically.
