Key features
  • Tested for: 125 kg (276 lb)

STYRSPEL gaming chair helps you play at the top of your game. Adjust the headrest, lumbar support, armrests and the seat height and depth – the mesh material keeps you cool when the game heats up!

Article Number805.260.89

Product details

The mesh material of the backrest lets air through, which is extra nice when a match drags on.

This chair gives your arms a comfortable support and reduces tension in your neck and shoulders since the padded armrests can be adjusted upwards/downwards, forwards/backwards and inwards.

The armrests are attached to the backrest, so they recline together with the backrest to provide support for various activities like when you’re playing on your phone.

You sit comfortably since the chair is adjustable in height.

The synchronized seat and back tilt follows your body movements and adjusts the chair to the correct position.

The design of the high backrest gives your body, neck and head a sturdy and comfortable support.

You can adjust the height of the headrest to give your neck a nice support when playing – and when you want to relax between matches.

Your back gets the support it needs because the seat depth can be adjusted.

You can adjust the lumbar support to suit you and your needs.

The safety casters have a pressure-sensitive brake mechanism that keeps the chair in place when you stand up, and releases automatically when you sit down.

The base contributes to both movement and stability – and works as a footrest too.

Ratings and reviews

Wheels won’t rollJodiIf you want to move the chair, you have to physically pick it up and move it. It will not roll. Not sure what we can do to fix this as it seems to be the wheel design. 2
Some small defectsYanfengTo be honest, this chair is not bad and comfortable. But some screw holes may be broken, which means you may not be able to fix them well. It doesn't actually affect the use, but you know, buying defective products will always ruin your mood.2
Nice, pretty but...SteveI love the design, and the purple one is looking amazing. It's super easy to assemble (you can do it in few minutes). It's comfy BUT it's not the most comfy one! Y But still good enough for the price!4
Pretty good, but the back gets dusty quicklyVivianI use this as an office chair, and it's not bad. I like the texture, and I can easily cross my legs or change my posture while sitting in it. There's no possibility of fake leather flaking off, which is a plus. While there aren't as many adjustable features as other chairs, it has all the basics. I got this in September 2023 and everything still works. Something to consider is that the lumbar support is a big surface area and dust settles very easily on it, so I need to clean it regulary. It's not something I had to do with my other chairs. If I don't wipe it down and reach behind me to adjust the lumbar support, my hands end up coated with a layer of dust.4
Happy with an office chair IrynaI recently purchased an office chair from IKEA, and I couldn’t be happier with it. The price was very reasonable, especially for the quality you get. It’s incredibly comfortable, with good support for long hours at my desk, making it perfect for working from home. The design is sleek and modern, fitting in perfectly with my home office setup. Assembly was straightforward, and the materials feel durable. Overall, this chair is a great deal for anyone looking for comfort without breaking the bank!5
Too big, hard to roll, bad screw placementReidVery disappointed with this chair at this price point. I bought this chair and have been using it for 2 years. 1) Chair is TOO WIDE and DEEP (I am 5'6" 120lb). I can't comfortably use the armrests. The chair is too deep so I have to choose between leaning forward, or using the back support while uncomfortably stretching my arms forward. 2) The feature of WHEELS ONLY ROLLING WHILE SITTING is the OPPOSITE of WHAT I WANT. I want to be able to move my chair while I'm standing, and I want to be able to sit down securely without the chair moving. 3) The SCREW PLACEMENT for the HEADREST is terrible, very hard to put in. The screw also fell out frequently for me because I use my headrest a lot. At some point the screw was lost and I ordered a replacement at no cost. The plastic underneath the seat also has screws that I constantly need to tighten and occasionally put back in when they fall out.1
Affordable & Stylish ergonomic chair! AnirudhThe chair looks great in person and would definitely turn eyes. It's also practical in many ways! I'll cover the pros and cons of this chair followed by why this might be the one for you! Pro's: - Star shaped foot rest (These were a game changer for me) - Adjustable arms (While its a bit limited when it comes to adjustment, it does a good job and you'll get used to it!) - Adjustable seat! (This is a game changer for short, tall and plus size people. You can move the seat base forward and back to allow more space for your back!) Cons: - Fixing the headrest is a challenge since the screw provided is a weird one. I had to get a basic screwdriver set from the dollar store to fit it. - Not carpet friendly (I wish Ikea had thought this through.. the wheel sink in the carpet and chair mats don't help given ikea's pressure based wheel design).4
Stiff wheels Carlos AndresWheels won’t work unless you are on the chair.3
Hard to moveHelenThe universal wheel does not roll smoothly. When you want to move it in the room, you have to lift it.3
The purple chairSusanIt is comfortable enough for long days working from home but I wish the seat could go down another 1-2". I also wish the tension could be reduced on the seat back but I'm sure in time it will stop trying to launch me in to the stratosphere when I sit up. The floor model has definitely seen some mileage as it does not have the same recoil as new. 4
Broken MehranI know, we got this cheaper but not broken! The head support is missing and the wheels are terrible...1
It's not good for me AlhanI buy it as I have back pain but it does not work for me .2
office chairAsifLove the chair, this is exactly what I was looking for. Great back support5
High quality office/gaming chairBorisThis is a chair that exudes quality - it made mostly of metal and premium plastics. It is stable and supportive in all the right places. Armrests on this chair are soft, fully adjustable (height, forward/backward and angle) and sturdy. Armrests are synced with the back not the seat, so if you slouch, this may be an issue. Lumbar support is adjustable, and more importantly, not very aggressive. The base is strong and wide. I also had some trouble with the infamous headrest screw, but I solved it by slotting the screw in the headrest first, before I installed it onto the chair. Once I got some of the thread going, I backed it out and placed the headrest onto the chair back frame as per manual and screwed it in without major issues. Headrest can be adjusted vertically but is not tiltable. The mesh on the back and the seat is fantastic - it is super comfortable and feels soft to the touch. As for the seat tilt function, it is excellent as it is fully lockable in multiple positions.5
Very comfortableSyedaVery comfortable5
Very adjustableAnonymous reviewerLots of different adjustments can be made...but it has a 'safety' device that prevents it from rolling when there is no weight in it. Can be a little frustrating. For those who have balance issues and try to get in a moving chair, I suppose it's ideal.4
Comfy and very adjustableKathleenBought this as a chair to use on my craft room. I didn’t really need one this high end but it’s purple so I had to have it. It’s very adjustable and super comfy the only thing that stopped me from giving it 5 * is the fact that when I lean back it tilts back a bit and I can’t adjust anything to make that stop. Some people may like this but I think it should be adjustable.4
It’s greatSylvieIt’s great5
uncomfortableAnonymous reviewerI'm going to return it, the saddle is very uncomfortable, especially the front of the saddle1
Material is a bit scratchyMarnieMaterial is a bit scratchy when skin is in contact but otherwise a comfortable chair.4

My son loves this chair! Says it’s very comfortable and loves that he can recline the chair and lock it in place. It’s pretty customizable for different body types.

STYRSPEL Gaming chair, gray/red
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

“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.”

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.

Designer thoughts

Designer thoughts

“The idea with STYRSPEL was to design a dedicated chair for gaming – and at the same time take advantage of the extensive home furnishing knowledge that IKEA has. It had to be good-looking yet have all the necessary features and ergonomics needed when a match drags on for hours and hours. The inspiration for the design comes from the wire-frame models often used in 3D computer graphics. I hope that gamers of all ages will love this chair and want to use it for many years."
