ONEX GX1 Gaming Chair - Black

Pros:
Cheaper than other gaming chairs
Full length arm rests (the main reason I bought it)
Looks reasonably stylish
Good amount of padding on seat and backrest. Waaay more comfortable than my DX-Racer

Cons:
It does not breathe as it claims to. The material is just normal faux-leather, which does NOT breathe. "AIR tech" seems to be nothing more than some tiny holes in places, which does effectively nothing too keep temps down.

No head or neck support at all, the back is a lot shorter than pics would indicate. What appears to be a headrest in the pictures sits behind my neck at an angle that makes it impossible to reach since the contour of the chair leans back at the top.
The armrests are quite low, my elbows don't even reach them while sitting at the keyboard.

My opinion: It's decent for the price. Probably suits a teen or shorter person quite well but as an average sized guy at 5'9" (176cm) I wish both the back and armrests were higher and that it actually breathed like it claims to.

After reading other reviews all mentioning comfort I opted to buy this chair.
I am very pleased that I did as it is comfortable. It is also quiet as well. My last chair from a different supplier made noise every time I twitched and it was very annoying.

My new chair was on special at the time so not only did I get a really good chair but at a good price too. Still even at it's regular price it is still a great buy.
So if you want comfort then it's hard to go past this chair and I'm no lightweight either. I can game comfortably for up to 5 hours which is long enough for me. After reading other reviews all mentioning comfort I opted to buy this chair.

Pretty average chair, arms hold it together so cant be removed.
Wish I'd paid a bit more for a better chair. Pretty average chair, arms hold it together so cant be removed.

Its a chair, but that's about it.
The chair does not go as high as I would like. I bought it together with the (excellent) Onex PC desk and the chair does not allow you to sit up straight while at a desk of the same brand. The back of the chair is angled too far back so it does not provide enough support, and the arm rests are not removable since they hold the back on the chair.
Definitely go for something better if you care about back support and posture. Its a chair, but that's about it.

We got this chair for my son with birthday money he received. He's 16 and was able to put the chair together himself quite easily. He's been using it for about 3 weeks and its super comfortable and seems to be good quality and sturdy so far. A good chair in this price range and would recommend.

Easy to assemble, looks great and is comfortable to sit on. I can recline it whenever I need to rest my back without having to press anything. Definitely worth the price!

Great value for money for someone looking for an office chair and also do some gaming... very comfortable, sold chair and in Black, its great looking... does not look "cheap" like many of the no-name or Warehouse furniture chairs.

The ONEX GX1 is a solid gaming chair with decent lower back support, nice build strength and a decent seat area surface. I would recommend this chair to someone looking for a comfortable gaming chair for serious gaming sessions.

My partner and I purchased two of these chairs for our home office about 2 months ago. They are extremely comfortable and tick all the boxes! when you compare these chairs to the price of other gaming chairs, it's a no brainer!

Purchased this gaming chair for my 9 year old son , after a short while the stitching failed on the seat as pictured , wouldn’t buy other one from this brand im afraid.

This chair is very comfortable and very stylish. There are some cons though: when using on a hot day, your back will get quite hot and you will sweat a lot, the handles can't come off and my desk has a frame at the front which blocks my handles from going under the desk. It does fit once I lower the chair but the height position isn't very ergonomic when I do that. So make sure you get the chair that fits your desk. But other than that very nice and comfy.
