Product details

Whether you’re sitting upright or leaning back, while you’re gaming the synchronized seat and back tilt follow your body movements and adapt effortlessly to your favorite gaming position.

The tilt lock allows you to adjust the chair’s tilt and lock it in 4 different positions, from upright to 135°, so you can chill between long matches.

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 can also be rotated.

The adjustable lumbar support helps to maintain the correct posture while you play, which reduces strain on muscles in your lower back.

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

The cover of headrest and lumbar cushion is made of grain leather which is soft to the touch and ages gracefully since it acquires a richer color and a more beautiful surface over time.

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

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

You sit comfortably since the chair is adjustable in height.

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.

Goes perfectly with MÅLOMRÅDE electric sit and stand gaming desk that improves the ergonomics even more when you play.

Reviews

Not as good as I first thought it wasAnonymousIm a short woman (5'3"). I find the head rest is too high for me in its lowest position, the lumbar support piece is too high in its lowest position, and the chair is too high in its lowest position for me. I can touch the floor with my toes only. The tilt feature is limited. When I try to lock it in a position I like and release the lever to lock it, it moves further before locking into a position I don't like. I don't like the wheels at all. But Im going to return it just for one reason - its the armrests! OMG, I've never had anything more annoying in a chair! Yea I like that they are adjustable in hight and you can slide the cushion forward and backward, but! the cushion also swivels! But!!! doesn't lock in place! So it always swivels with any light touch which drives me crazy. I would still keep it if armrests could lock and not swivel, but that's a little too much. Im cringing every time I use it. Not worth $500 for sure. Designers failed on this one. Looks beautiful though. 3
IKEA finally has a winnerGeorgeThis is the one folks. This chair is competitive with all the brand-name offerings over $1k, having tried all of them. The chair does feel firm, so I would suggest IKEA add a version with padded foam.5
Countdown startedSzeBought this chair without seeing a review and could not test a floor model. Will test it for the next month or so and see if it's a keeper. The review: The mesh is strong and comfortable - this is subjective of course - I like both the firmness of both the seat and the back. Most of the frame is metal so I expect this to last. Fit: I'm 5'9", and my friend who's 6'1" have the same length torso, and the headrest at the highest work. If possible try out a floor model. Likewise the seat pan fits me well, but I'd like a longer seat-pan since I like to sit cross legged sometimes. I can manage it but it's be easier if I had additional inch or 2 The recline is great, and you can lock it into 3 positions. Tension is okay and you can't adjust. The locked angles are comfortable but the mechanism isn't smooth By far the best armrests from any Ikea chair, lots of movement & is soft The wheels suck, I have carpet and will need to but a floor mat. Lumbar and headrest is decent.4
Tactile High Quality ArmandoRisked getting this chair with no reviews, but the thumbnails were enough to get me intrigued. Picked it up, assembled it, and I love the chair. I love the ergonomics, breathability, and tactile feel the arm rests have when you adjust. Good lumbar and headrest support. 5

“My idea with BÄSTBOLL was to create an ergonomic gaming chair inspired by modern car seats. Functional, comfortable and with lots of options to adjust the armrests to your gaming preferences. I really like the mechanism that maximizes the recline angle by moving the seat forward when you lean back – and how the levers under the seat resemble joysticks. I hope the chair helps you perform at your best when the screen flashes Game on."
