Hands-on Review: Playseat Evolution Gaming Seat

Playseat Evolution Gaming Seat

For my 10-year-old son's anniversary we've decided to buy him this gaming seat. We’ve had several reasons:

In general my opinion is very positive. First of all because the device itself is flexible. I mean it can be moved around the house easily, it can be folded and put where you think it’ll suit the best.

The main thing I love about Playseats Evolution Gaming Seat that it can be accustomed to various game consoles. I’ve had the Xbox at first. It worked together very well. Playing was actually like real racing. Then for a while I had to connect it to our home PC. And it worked perfectly well with it too. But of course PC doesn’t allow you to play as many games as the Xbox does. But it never influences on the quality of the gaming seat operating.

Now we have playstation – luckily everything is still fine. When my son uses the seat I notice that still it’s a little short for him. But I suppose he’ll grow up considerably soon.

Ah, I have some words to say about the carpeting of the floor you’ll put it on. We’ve had it on the tiled floor – and we had no problems. Expect for one time when my son’s friends visited us to play racing games they were so active and they threw themselves so hardly on the wheel that I’ve noticed it changed its position a bit. In the rest of cases – nothing unusual and unordinary – very stable.

Though when the boys were mega active I saw it wobbling, but very slightly, almost unnoticeable. I don’t know, maybe, when I’m playing it is the same – because I’m sometimes very fierce or excited and I don’t even see the world surrounding me. But I haven’t felt it wobbling once.

After a gaming seat like this you’ll hardly ever try sitting on a floor or sitting at a usual table. After I play for an hour or so even without breaks I never feel tired and exhausted. My back never hurts. Because before this chair (not only my son but I myself am a racing fan too) when I went to bed to sleep I felt weak pain in bed which was very annoying. It’s normal I think after being in the same position for a while.

So the main features I love were:
