“With STYRSPEL you get a look and functions we feel are missing in conventional gaming chairs,” he says. The backrest and the extra wide seat are compatible with everyone who appreciate comfort by the screen, and who doesn’t? “We’re using a strong mesh fabric instead of padding. It gives a pleasant cooling effect if you sit for many hours and feels softer compared to other mesh fabrics on the market. We have also tried to make it intuitive to understand how to adjust the chair so you easily can get a comfortable position, no matter how you prefer to sit or what body type you have.”

Manufacturing defectsEricIkea makes it impossible to access or tighten the screws in the headrest, but the screws come loose and fall out. Don't bother with this chair.
Comfortable gaming chairYundieIt is comfortable to let you lay back, and you adjust the seat part forward or backward a little bit. But it just a little high for me as i am 162cm. When sitting on the chair, my feet couldn’t reach the floor even it is the lowest height.
Great valueSarahThis chair has all the functionality you’d want for a comfortable experience. There are so many ways that it can be adjusted to suit the user.
Very Ergonomic Gaming ChairEricThis is a very ergonomic gaming chair! Bought it while the IKEA app was doing 10% discount + Black Friday 15% discount....then also got the assembly service.. It has good back support and easy to adjust settings...its more comfortable than many of the office chairs...I am using it as my work from home office chair...it is quite comfortable! Highly recommended
Not a fan of the seatAdityaThis is a heavy well built, good quality chair with a lot of standard ergo features found in more premium models. My biggest issue with it is the mesh seat. With 0 cushion the extremely hard metal piping around the edge/border of the seat it is very uncomfortable to sit with one leg folded on the seat. Even for normal sitting the lack of seat cushion makes it feel like you are sitting on a cold hard bench.
My 2nd issue is the resistance of the back rest is a bit more than I would like.
Good, comfortable chairRichardIt's a good chair, comfortable with lots of adjustment possibilities.
Comfortable and SupportiveJesseInitial thoughts when sitting down is the mesh seat has minimal give. However it's actually quite comfortable long term and I prefer it over järvfjället. The seat has longer forward/back travel than it as well and more customisability with the arm rests. Just beware the fact that the arm rests tilt with the chair, for some people that is a deal breaker but for me it's fine.
No reclining tense adjustment RobertI love this chair. It works great , but the lack of a reclining tense adjustment knob means that the preset seatback resistance cannot be adjusted. It was too weak for me, but I’ve gotten use to it. The sliding seat, adjustable arm rests, the neck rest, the casters. They all feel right and work well.
Well buiult office chairOlegThe chair is very well built and is fully adjustable. The only complaint is that it only rolls if you sit on it, otherwise the wheels don't roll. So when we clean the room it's heavy to move around.

Story
Level up with the right hardware
Gaming is a profession for thousands of people and a hobby for millions. One thing that unites gamers worldwide is the love of esports and the challenges on the screen. And if we’re honest, sometimes very long sittings and sore muscles. With STYRSPEL you can fine-tune your posture and get the edge you need to comfortably reach new levels and a new personal best.
“Even if you’re not a gamer yourself, you probably know someone who is; there’s one in almost every family constellation,” says product developer Ola Kristensson. “Many gaming chairs on the market look like racing chairs, but we wanted to do something different, that breathes IKEA, with everything that entails.”
Loaded with function and comfort
Adjust according to your game
STYRSPEL has other functions especially developed for gamers, but which others also can appreciate, like the pivoting armrests. “It’s because you want different distances between your elbows depending on if you play on a console, computer or mobile. With STYRSPEL you can fine-tune your posture and sit relaxed, regardless of what device you play on.” It’s a chair with several features that can contribute to higher scores and better gaming experiences. And that’s also good news for anyone who lives with a gamer and maybe needs to borrow a comfortable chair every now and then.
