noblechairs HERO Series Gaming Chair Review

Introduction
noblechairs Hero
Tired of sitting on a standard run-of-the-mill gaming chair? Or maybe you have just a standard office chair, or a chair, or a box. I don’t know, and frankly, it doesn’t matter too much. The noblechairs Hero is less “gaming” chair, and more focused on being a desktop throne you can be proud of while working, gaming, or just kicking back in style. It’s bigger, bolder, and more feature-packed than any of their previous models. It’s not cheap, but if it’s like previous noblechairs products, you’ll get what you pay for.
Bigger is Better
I’m around 6ft tall and rocking a 32-34″ waist. It’s safe to say I’m not a big buy when it comes to my weight. However, even I find some gaming chairs to feel like you’re stuck in a vice. noblechairs built the hero to provide a wider and deeper seat, a bigger backrest, more range in the gas lift, etc. This is good for me, but it’s also going to mean the chair is more accommodating to larger folk too. The gas lift is stable to 180KG, which is nuts, that’s me, my girlfriend, and our two kids with weight to spare. It is safe to say that this chair is robust.

What noblechairs Had to Say
“In the course of designing the new HERO Series, noblechairs took extensive input and guidance from eSports professionals. The result: the most ergonomic and feature-rich gaming chair ever made and one that offers consistent comfort, even after prolonged hours of working or gaming at your desk. The new stepless lumbar support integrated into the backrest helps to provide superb ergonomic customisation. The headrest is now filled with memory foam to allow its cushioning to better conform to individual head shapes. Furthermore, the backrest, seat area and armrests have all been increased in size. When you’re this comfortable, it’s tough to tear yourself away from the HERO.” – noblechairs @ OCUK
Packaging
Be warned, this box is a two-man lift. it’s obnoxiously big and heavy and the courier who delivers it will not look happy. Once it’s open though, you’ll easily be able to unpack and build the chair on your own; for the most part.
