DXRacer Air: revolutionary mesh gaming chair
Gaming chairs qualify as ergonomic with three essential features. Those are adjustable lumbar, adjustable armrests, and a reclining backrest. Even so, many prefer the breathability of office-style mesh chairs.
To address that, the mad lads at DXRacer cooked up a wild solution. Behold, the world’s first gaming chair upholstered in an ultra-breathable mesh. You’ve never seen anything like this:
What the heck is this thing? At a glance, it’s a standard mesh office chair with a futuristic design twist. In terms of gaming chair functionality, it compares with the best pro esports gaming chairs ($300-$550).
It also matches or exceeds the functionality of the best ergonomic office chairs
Whether you have quibbles with ergo office chairs or gaming chairs, the DXRacer Air looks well-equipped to keep everybody happy. But that’s not all.
Modular addons
The DXRacer Air borrows the modular concept first introduced by the DXRacer Master. ‘Modular’ means stackable components. You can add a retractable footrest, laptop or mobile device holder, and even an RGB exoskeleton with brilliant lighting effects.
Beyond the upholstery, notable features include a height-adjustable lumbar and headrest.
- Functionality: 4D armrests; recline from 90-135°; multifunction tilt-lock.
- Support: height-adjustable lumbar (15 cm range); height-adjustable headrest.
- Upholstery: ultra-breathable mesh; supporting suspension springs.
- Foundation: steel frame; Class 4 gas lift; 3″ (76 mm) PU casters.
- Extras: modular add-ons; leather or fabric slipcovers.
Assessment
This is an incredible design with unlimited potential for user-centered customization. If you want to go deskless, add a laptop holder module.
If you find out you don’t like mesh, slap on a leather or fabric cover and use it as a gaming chair.
