I play video games for about an hour or so a night and needed something more comfortable to sit on while playing. I found I was getting neck and back pain on my couch and chairs and was looking for something to help with that. This chair is nooo good. I tried it and it was better then what I was using but after a half hour I was very uncomfortable on it. I am an adult and you can not lean back in the chair otherwise you will find yourself laying on your back with your feet in the air! It still creates a strain on your neck due to that fact. I have returned this chair to amazon and since ordered another one that I believe will be a winner. I would not recommend this to anyone especially an adult.

I ended up buying the Pyramat S1500 W chair and it was PERFECT! While I didn't need the wireless speakers that it comes with Amazon had the best price of any store or site at $89. Most other places average price was $120. Great chair and worth the money.

I read the other reviews for this product, and I have to say that the negative ones I read were wrong. This is the typical design for this kind of chair. A chair like this does roll back easily, if used incorrectly. The people who said that they kept falling back, obviously have no idea how too sit in this type of chair. I have owned several of this type of chair in my life, and they have always been great, this chair is no different. I love this chair, and will continue too buy them in the future. As long as you are not a giant, then you will be fine sitting in it. I have even been able to fall asleep in this chair.

If you look at this video rocker for what it is and not what it could be i think you will love it.

First off, the rocker looks very nice, especially the black one with the red stripe (the one I got). The material is very tight around the wood its made from making the rocker much more comfortable than others I've had before. Like a lot of other inexpensive video rockers its great for two or three hours of watching TV, or web surfing but not so much for extended use. There is not that much support for the neck area which is why extended use is not ideal. It's the perfect size for someone like me (5'10) but I don't think it would be as comfortable for someone more than six feet tall.

All in all If you want a nice simple,affordable, and fairly comfortable video rocker than this is the one for you, but if you are looking for a more features like arm rests, and wireless audio then you might want to check out the Cohesion XP 10.2 Gaming Chair. http://www.amazon.com/Cohesion-Gaming-Chair-Wireless-Audio/dp/B002MZNLFM/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1265648606&sr=1-1

This chair is not balanced right- you have to actively lean forward the whole time you are sitting in it or it tips over backwards.

I decided to give this chair the benefit of the doubt despite all the negative feedback I read. Unfortunately, the masses can't be wrong. This chair is absolutely horrible and probably one of the most uncomfortable chairs I've ever sat in. It's basically wood covered with textile to make it look good and it does. My previous gaming chair from Target was way better. A complete waste of money!

Never substitute comfort for "cheap". Please save yourself the trouble of having to return it and getting a new one.

The big drawback on this chair is the fact that you can feel each piece of wood in this chair. Its not so bad on the back, but the head and seat areas of the chair feel like im on a piece of wood with only a piece of fabric separating it. I'm forced to use pillows on both the head and seat to make the experience bareable, which makes the sitting angle kind of uncomfortable. I suggest spending a little more money and getting a better chair because this one doesnt leave me happy, and im pretty lenient when it comes to comfort.

Just received the product. Purchased it to play my PS3. The surface looks like some sort of cheap pleather and the entire surface looks like it might tear easily. It's not very sturdy and I'm skeptical how much this thing will last after some use. However, for the money it works well and does the job. Contrary to other reviews, I didn't have any problems with it rocking over. I'm 5'10 and 160lbs, and it's almost impossible for me to rock it over. For the price, I can totally recommend it for a cheap alternative.

This "Video Rocker" is a good fit for my teen son who is roughly 6' and about 200lbs. We were concerned about the size after reading some of the other reviews, but he finds it comfortable and literally spends hours sitting in it without complaint.

This is made of good materials, looks nice and is overall reasonable quality.

The chair is perfect for being on the computer for hours or just watching tv, you have back support and you can rock back and forth. The only negative is that it is a hard chair, no cushion on the sides. But it does what its supposed to do, plus its so cheap.

I searched all over for a no frills gaming chair. I didnt need the speakers, etc.... I read the reviews on this one and was skeptical with some of the reviews saying it would tip over and not for an adult, etc... Well, I am 5'9" and 170 lbs male and this is just perfect! I actually TRIED to see if it was tip backwards like everyone said and it never did. I dont know if they are using it wrong or what. I tried it out for an hour and couldn't be happier. Only small thing is not a lot of padding behind the neck area, but I threw a small pillow behind my neck and it's soooo comfortable.

For $25 this is a steal compared to so many other higher priced chairs. It's very comfy and well worth the price.
