Recently I want to add some decorations to the room. Since it is a new house, I want to make it more personalized. As a serious gamer, owning an e-sports room of my own has been my long-standing dream. So I plan to go all out and put aside the incomprehensible opinions of my elders to build myself an e-sports room full of e-sports punk style.
However, I am having trouble deciding what type of chair to buy. There are several options available at the moment. The first one is the gaming chair which is most suitable for the atmosphere of the gaming room, but it is not good for the buttocks (the reason will be discussed below) . The second is ergonomic chairs (referred to as just pick a durable office chair to deal with). The third is the traditional wooden chair, (plainness is the truth). After comparing various parameters, prices and brand prices, I decided to choose none! Because I accidentally discovered that there is a category of massage gaming chairs
Why not choose a traditional gaming chair? Many people on the Internet say that gaming chairs are an IQ tax. There are probably two reasons. First, the prices of gaming chairs are exaggeratedly high. The lifespan of the chairs below 1,000 is poor and there is no recline. The price-performance ratio of buying a chair that can only be used for sitting is too low for more than 1,000. The second is that some businesses use inferior leather-like materials, which are prone to cracking. The leather is not breathable. After sitting for a long time, the condition under the buttocks is difficult to describe.
What I finally chose was the one I saw on Xiaomi Youpin , the Tektronix Fortress Awakening Magician Massage Gaming Chair that combines massage and gaming chair elements. The current crowdfunding cost is 2889. I checked what is currently available on the market. The main manufacturers of massage gaming chairs on the Internet, such as OSIM, their massage gaming chairs cost around 4000-6000 on average, which is far beyond my budget. It can be said that it is quite cost-effective to buy a good-quality massage gaming chair in the price range of 2,000. Moreover, it is Xiaomi Youpin, a well-known platform, and the after-sales process is also reliable.
After it arrived, I really wanted to lie on it all day long. Even when I wasn’t playing games, it was really cool to lie on it and play with my phone. It was really nice to relax after work. Moreover, there is an RGB light strip on this massage gaming chair, which can automatically detect the sound intensity of the scene to change the color and flashing pattern. It fits the theme of my gaming room very well.
Speaking of massage gaming chairs, we can’t help but mention its massage function. I originally thought that this 2889 massage gaming chair is only equipped with several fixed-position vibrating massage balls, but I didn’t expect that there are guide rails inside, and the size is 79cm. Rails can By pressing the neck from your butt all the way, the massage technique alone has three modes: back massage, shoulder and neck massage, full body massage, and three massage intensities: strong, medium, and soft. It is suitable for people with different force sensitivities. The massage techniques are intelligently adjusted for the parts, tapping to relax muscles, kneading to relieve fatigue, and acupressure is output at fixed points. It can be said that the functions are no less than those of traditional massage chairs.
Finally, after using this massage gaming chair from Tektronix Fortress purchased on Xiaomi Youpin for a long time, I have to change my attitude from affirmative to the statement that gaming chairs are IQ taxes, because gaming chairs have IQ taxes. Whether it depends on the sincerity of the manufacturer rather than a fixed impression of the category. As long as you purchase the product that best suits you within your reasonable budget, it will be value for money.
