Unlike a decade ago when big and tall guys had to contend with rather uncomfortable office chairs, they can now clock more gaming hours with some of the newest and best gaming chairs. These new line gaming chairs are now more target specific, allowing big guys to get just as much comfort and value as any intense gamer out there.

Intense gaming can be quite exhausting without the right equipment, back pains, restricted circulation to extremities are just some of the issues big guys have to contend with when they play, which is why big and tall chairs are a crucial addition to the rig.

Finding gaming chairs today is pretty easy, there are tons of new brands out there. If however, you are looking for something specific, then here is a list of some of the top rated ones on the market.

• 10.6(L) X 3.6 (W) Armrest pad size.
• Full-length Backrest.
• Built-in adjustable lumbar cushion.
• Reinforced aluminium base.
• Multi-tilt mechanism.

The Titan is the largest of the Secretlab family with a wider base, a taller backrest, and a firmer core. This makes it better equipped to support heavier loads. If you are a big guy looking for a gaming chair that you don’t have to struggle to get into, then the Titan will suit you just fine.

Homall High Back Gaming Chair

Features

• Premium PU leather.
• Tilt Lock, 90-180 degree angle adjuster.

The only problem with Homall is the fact that it lacks a footrest, but it more than compensates with the higher seat height.

• High-Quality PU leather.
• Back Massage Function.

Lastly, there is the Kinsal variety, with high back cover and a utility back massage function. It comes in at the bottom of the list mostly because it lacks height and armrest adjustment, which makes it a bit stiff. If you are willing to look past these limitations, then it works just as well.
