A Royal Chair
DXRacer King Series DOH/KS06/N doesn't discriminate. Gamers come in different shapes and forms and this chair will be able to accommodate them all. It will prove equally comfortable for people anywhere within the 5.6" - 6.6" height range and 175 lbs - 450 lbs weight range. But it isn't just about fitting as many different people as possible, it is also about making them as comfortable as possible.
However, first and foremost, the reason this chair is able to support the end part of the aforementioned weight range lies with the gas-lift mechanism that incorporates a particularly robust aluminum construction. There's practically no load it won't be able to handle for many years to come.
Now, as for that "comfortable" part, there are many things here that contribute to the model's performance on the comfort front and there's a good chance you've seen them before in previous DXRacer models. The backrest here is really high and straight, delivering additional head support. You can adjust the back angle 135 degrees, making yourself comfortable in the process. We can talk about the high-density foam and the high-quality PU leather that also contribute to making the model as comfortable as it is.
Of course, the latter part is responsible for the chair's sleek appearance too. But this is a DXRacer gaming chair we're talking about here. The company's streamlined aesthetics with sharp angles and polished but, at the same time, rough accents are practically legendary at this point and there is hardly any reason to cover them.
Change the Rests
Though the model is about the little things at large, we wouldn't really be able to call it little. Its 27 x 52-55 x 25 inches in overall dimensions are relatively standard but 77.1-pound weight is a little more than the usual DXRacer deal.
Then again, it makes sense considering that the model is able to support higher weights too. It will take you some time to put the chair together but, again, we can't really hold it against the product since it is about as full-featured as gaming chairs come.
Among other things, the model incorporates 4D adjustable arms, so you'll be able to change the armrests' height as well as move them forward, backward, and sideways. The lumbar cushion here is great as per usual and the headrest does not trail behind too.
All things considered, DXRacer King Series DOH/KS06/N is a gaming chair that, true to its name, should be able to satisfy the most royal gaming crowd. Again, the chair does not discriminate. Your height and weight do not matter here, there's practically no chance you won't find the model comfortable, convenient, and practical.

The Pinnacle of DXRacer Racing Series
If you happen to be on the taller side of the height spectrum, you probably don't need us telling you how much of a nightmare it can be to find a fitting ergonomic computer chair. And don't even get us started if what you want isn't just a suitable piece of furniture where you can awkwardly sit in front of your computer but an actual high-end gaming chair that will be able to satisfy even the most demanding customers.
Well, as it usually is when it comes to gaming chairs, you ought to leave it to DXRacer to deliver a product this specific that won't just fail to disappoint the pickiest clients but might actually be one of the best examples of gaming furniture on the market right now.
As we hinted at earlier, this is a gaming chair that is targeted towards taller people, with an acceptable user height being suitable for just about anybody below 6'3" and the user weight fitting any person that doesn't weigh more than 250 pounds. With that said, even though the product is marketed as a tall computer chair recommended for people of slender and average body types, some of the thicker and bulkier individuals will still be able to feel comfortable in this chair.
Four Dimensions of Comfort
Now, with all of that out of the way, we did mention earlier that being able to properly fit taller people isn't even remotely the only interesting thing about this model, which is why it is probably high time to talk about some of those characteristics.
For starters, this gaming chair from DXRacer comes equipped with 4D adjustable armrests, and that means that, in addition to all of those functions that are present in your typical 3D type, including the ability to pull those things up and down and turn them any way you want, you can also move the armrests forward, backward, as well as sideways, offering virtually endless possibilities for those individuals that can never quite get their hands comfortable enough. On top of that, the model also incorporates a multi-functional tilt mechanism. While a conventional tilt mechanism will only allow you to go back to a specified, preset degree, a multi-functional one provides you with the opportunity to block it at any one of the angles, so you can position your chair entirely according to your needs and preferences.
Aside from all of these conveniences, another interesting aspect of this Esports chair lies in the materials that the manufacturers used in order to build the whole thing up from scratch, especially when it comes to the cover. Where most other DXRacer models use either PU or a combination of PU and strong Mesh, the product in question incorporates a mix of Carbon Look Vinyl and PolyUrethane, essentially combining the benefits of both of these materials that include but aren't limited to durability, resistance to abrasion and corrosion, not to mention being waterproof and easy to clean.
Finally, there are all of those things that are present in just about any high-end DXRacer gaming chair out there, like the ability to adjust the height of the chair, a 135-degree back angle adjustment, a lumbar cushion, a comfortable and convenient headrest, and a set of 3" PU casters that are easy to operate and light in weight, so you won't have to worry about them damaging your floor. All things considered, the DXRacer DOH/FH11/NE Gaming Chair is one of the most impressive DXRacer models in terms of the materials involved in its production and the sort of comfort it can offer. Besides, if you happen to be on the taller side of the height spectrum, there is simply no better gaming chair out there.

A More Affordable Option
DXRacer chairs aren't cheap. Gaming chairs in general aren't cheap but the company is one of the biggest names in the business and, as it usually happens, their products aren't cheap. However, it's not like every single model from DXRacer is all that expensive too.
Take DXRacer Formula Series DOH/FD01/NR, for example. The titular chair is many things but expensive isn't one of them. It doesn't really cost that much more than your average desk chair and, in more ways than one, the model does so much better than these chairs.
More often than not, these chairs do not incorporate anything similar to the company's patented breathable fabric with a strong mesh that keeps things nice and fresh.
A similar sentiment can be extended towards the highly strong and rugged tubular steel frame and a nylon star base. These components are as durable as they come and keep the chair stable and dependable.
There are many things that the model has over its regular office chair counterparts. For one, the armrests here are really soft and grippy. Sure, you're only able to adjust their height, nothing to complain about as far as regular desk chairs are concerned but a little underwhelming compared to the company's more expensive models.
However, the particular model's backrest is as high as it is in DXRacer's high-end chairs, keeping your neck and spinal nice and healthy. What's more, we can say more or less the same thing about the 135-degree adjustable back. You can lean and/or tilt as much as you like and have some quality rest time without standing up from the chair.
Maintain the Right Posture
All in all, there are many little details here that separate the model from your average gaming chair in this price range. The aforementioned nylon star base incorporates quality footrests on every "star". The chair has a nice gas-spring action going on that allows you to easily change the model's height.
The high-density mold-shaping memory foam is as comfortable as they come. It makes sure you keep your posture and, as the "high-density" part suggests, the model will be able to do that for years to come.
Since this DXRacer gaming chair is less expensive than the company's high-end models, there are slight differences here that do not necessarily work in its favor. Aside from the 1D arms, the biggest difference is that the chair is truly suitable for people between 4'9" - 6'0" and 115 lbs - 200 lbs, a nice range but shorter than it could be.
With all that in mind, DXRacer Formula Series DOH/FD01/NR is as good as budget gaming chairs come. The model incorporates just about every major solution you'll find in more expensive gaming seats but its price is much less steep. It will keep you comfortable but help you maintain the right posture at the same time.

To Please the Nine-To-Five Crowd
DXRacer is a company that is as synonymous with gaming chairs as Samsung Electronics is with, well, electronics or Nike is with sportswear. Nevertheless, that doesn't mean that the company simply doesn't care about an admittedly small fraction of their clients that wouldn't enlist gaming as their favorite pastime activity or just need an office chair just as much as they need a gaming one. Even though there aren't a whole lot of products from the said company that you could classify as a bucket seat office chair, or just about any office chair, for that matter, those couple of models the company did produce still adhere to the same standards of excellence usually reserved for their gaming series, and the DXRacer DOH/CE120/N Ergonomic Computer Chair is as good of example of that as it gets.
Now, before we get to some of those features that make this Classic Series chair different from any gaming chair from DXRacer, we'd like to point out the similarities first. Just like any other model from the company, this product is height adjustable, the arms feature the same 3D adjustable construction that will allow you to raise them, push them down, turn any direction you want and stabilize them at any angle you see it. The headrest is also included in the package, though the model doesn't feature a lumbar cushion that you'd usually expect out of a DXRacer chair.
All Kinds of Body Types
With that out of the way, it is time to talk about all of those things that make this reclining office chair different from the gaming chairs of the same company. First off, there's the weight capacity. While the majority of gaming chairs are designed specifically for people with an average body type, including a relatively average height (aside from those lines targeted towards taller people) and weight, the DXRacer DOH/CE120/N goes a step further than that, featuring a support system for people that weigh under 300 pounds, meaning that it will be able to fit just about any body type out there.
Not incidentally, the model is capable of offering that kind of support thanks to a particularly strong aluminum base that is covered under the same kind of lifetime guarantee that covers all gaming chairs from DXRacer. And since this product is being marketed as a chair suitable for big-boned individuals, it should also come as no surprise that the manufacturers made sure to implement a seat that is significantly wider compared to your regular chair from this company.
Having said all of that, before we wrap this whole thing up, we would like to mention that this model includes storage pockets in the back, which is a nice little feature that adds some extra convenience to an already comfortable and roomy chair. Suffice it to say, the DXRacer Classic Series DOH/CE120/N could easily be described as the best reclining office chair from the eponymous company due to the sheer number of convenient solutions it implements and the sort of variety of body types it is capable of accommodating.

Firm but Comfortable
DXRacer Racing Series DOH/RW106/N Newedge Edition is a new take on a slightly older and one of the most commercially successful DXRacer models. There are many things that work in the model's favor. First and foremost, because it is a new take on the older model, the chair is more affordable than your average DXRacer Racing Series seat these days and it doesn't necessarily differ that much.
The metal frame here is as robust and rugged as usual. It does not warp nor does it bend with time. The 27.5" nylon base is a little lighter than its aluminum counterparts but the particularly tough nylon makes it just as durable. What's more, the base is virtually immune to scratches.
With DXRacer gaming chairs, the company's trademark high-quality build is more or less a given and this particular model is not an exception. The high-density foam is as firm as it is comfortable and long-lasting to boot. The strong mesh isn't susceptible to wear and tear but it does allow your skin to breathe.
While we're on the subject, the PU-leather here is another detail that is as comfortable as it is durable. It feels nice to the touch and the leather doesn't start chipping off with time.
The Usual DXRacer Deal
Now, let's talk sizes. The model measures 27 x 50-53 x 21 inches in overall dimensions. Its weight stands at 57.3 pounds. These numbers are more or less standard for the Gaming Series.
We can say the same thing about its target demographic. The model will prove comfortable for people between 5'3 - 6'2 inches and 135 - 225 pounds.
That's a nice range that somewhere around 95-99% of the customers will find perfectly suitable. The King and Classic Series are more versatile in that regard but we can't really hold it against the model nor the Gaming Series.
As far as the chair's functionality is concerned, there's nothing here we haven't seen before in its Gaming Series predecessors and successors. The adjustable 3D arms offer a great range of motion. The 135-degree adjustable back will allow you to lean and tilt about as much as you prefer. The height-adjustment mechanism is as effortless and practical as it usually is. But the 2-inch casters, while rugged and durable, are relatively small for the Racing Series.
All in all, DX Racer Racing Series DOH/RW106/N Newedge Edition is more or less your average Racing Series model and there's nothing wrong with that. This is a great gaming chair and a much better seat than your average office model.

What Is a DXRacer Gaming Chair?
There's no need to state how important a system unit packed with high-tech hardware is when it comes to gaming. And just about anybody is aware that a proper gaming keyboard or an accurate mouse is capable of taking your performance to the next level. But a chair is a part of that setup that often gets underestimated and overlooked, even though it would seem obvious that a proper gaming chair can be as important in terms of reaching peak performance as a great set of peripherals.
And we aren't just talking about your comfort, which is vastly important if you plan on maintaining the absolute peak of your skill for hours on end. We're also talking about all of the health concerns that may derive from using a subpar product, all of which won't be able to stand a chance against the incredibly ergonomic and thought-out designs of the DXRacer gaming chairs. So just take a look at some of these chairs and take your pick if you're ready to take your gaming performance to the next level.
And if you take your gaming seriously, you might want to pick up a mechanical keyboard or a Razer mouse while you're at it.
What Features to Compare
Gaming chairs from DXRacer might not necessarily look like your regular office chairs and that is partly due to the fact that you'd be hard-pressed to find the sort of design solutions they feature in an average model designed specifically for office use, but they do share some of the more important aspects with the latter that we will briefly touch upon in order to help you decide which is the right product for you.
Type
There are quite a few different types of DXRacer chairs out there but the majority of them belong to one of the three categories: Racing Series, DXRacer Formula Series, or the Classic Series. Now, there aren't a whole lot of differences between the first two types except for the sort of target audience they're aiming to cover in terms of user height and weight. The Formula line will be more suitable for average-sized people (5'10" or shorter), while the Racer Series will be a perfect fit for people that occupy the higher end of the spectrum. The Classic Line is somewhat dissimilar to the first two because this category is usually reserved for versatile models that feature properties of a gaming chair as well as an office chair, so take that into consideration if you aren't just looking for a gaming model.
Material
As it is with virtually any other product out there, the type of material it is made of is one of the most important aspects to consider when you go looking for the right product. Any gaming desk chair should include a sturdy and reliable frame that won't be able to crack under the user's weight, a foam that is high in density in order to make sure that the customer won't feel uncomfortable after a few hours of sitting in a chair, and a reliable cover usually made of PU, PVC, or different kinds of fabric.
Extras
Finally, you should always pay attention to all of the additional features and conveniences that any DXRacer gaming chair comes equipped with. Some of these things include but aren't limited to height adjustment, angle adjustment, additional cushions, storage pockets, and different types of casters. Now, you may think that you do not care too much for some of these things, but it will be hard to go back once you get used to the kind of additional comfort all of these extra features can offer you.
Hopefully, we don't have to bring up the fact that you should also consider the dimensions given that it should be fairly obvious that you ought to look for the model that will be a suitable fit for your environment and especially given that most DXRacer gaming chairs don't differ that much in size.
Benefits of a Gaming Chair
Even though gaming chairs in general and the ones from DXRacer, in particular, have seen quite a boom in popularity over the past few years, a large number of people still tend to feel sceptical about the whole thing, and some will even go as far as to declare that all gaming chairs are simply a marketing scheme designed to trick people into buying shiny, overpriced office chairs that do not offer anything substantial in order to justify their often elevated price. And while we can't say that there's no truth whatsoever to these statements, that doesn't mean that all of the benefits of a gaming chair aren't worth those additional few bucks you may spend on them. Though we won't be able to cover all of the advantages that a gaming chair from DXRacer is capable of offering their customers, we will try to break down a few of those that we believe to be the most noteworthy.
Improved Posture
Let's face it - gamers have never had the best of postures to begin with. But before you go blaming us for that, we'd like you to try maintaining a perfect posture next time you're facing an impossible battle that will have you both literally and figuratively on the edge of your seat throughout the entire thing. Of course, it only gets worse after years of intense gaming sessions. Setting aside the obvious health issues that come with a bad posture, it is simply an unattractive feature that makes anyone look worse than they actually are. Fortunately enough, the majority of gaming chairs feature various design solutions that will help you keep your posture in check, all while making you feel comfortable and without requiring too much effort. And who said you can't have your cake and eat it too?
Blood Flow to the Legs
The majority of regular office chairs out there have those inconveniently placed edges that don't allow the blood to flow to your legs. Aside from the annoying feeling of discomfort that you get to experience every time you stand up, this can lead to a variety of leg and foot problems down the road if you're not too careful with it. On the other hand, one of the main benefits of a gaming chair from DXRacer is that all of them come equipped with edges specifically designed to get the blood flowing to your legs, making you feel much more comfortable and preventing any health-related complications at the same time.
Improved Spine Health
This should probably go without saying but one of the biggest victims of our sedentary lifestyle has always been the spine. From the feeling of pain and discomfort to plenty of potential health risks that you may experience down the road, there's simply no telling how much damage we do to our spine sitting in front of a computer screen for 10 hours a day. And while a gaming chair may not be a solution to this much more complex issue, the ones from DXRacer feature a variety of extra functions that will allow you to mitigate some of that damage. Naturally, even if you invest in the best gaming chair out there, you should still try to out for a walk every once in a while to give your back the rest it deserves.
