Spanish-language reviews place it as a solid, affordable gaming chair especially recommended for tall people, with good support and a sturdy build. The usual criticisms are that the faux leather runs warm, that the chair sits high for users under 1.80 m and that the lumbar is a cushion, not integrated.
