I bought this chair for husband for his birthday. He’s an avid gamer and He has been saying for a while that he wanted a gaming chair. It was a tad bit difficult to put together. Not the assembly itself but some of the bolts were a tough fit. Other than that it’s a great chair. Its comfortable with a few different options to customize it to your own body. My husband is 6’3”, 210 pounds and he also has a bad back and hasn’t complained since he’s been using it that he was sore.
