Ergonomic Office Chair Review: Unleash Ultimate Comfort with Backforce V Plus
Backforce V Plus: A Sustainable Gaming Chair for the Modern Gamer
Are you tired of settling for a mediocre gaming chair that compromises on comfort, style, and eco-friendliness? Look no further than the Backforce V Plus, a sleek and sustainable gaming chair that’s designed to provide unparalleled support and customization options for gamers and professionals alike.
Price and Availability
The Backforce V Plus is available for around €499, with shipping primarily in Europe. Custom patches and other upgrades can add to the cost. With its unique blend of features and eco-friendly materials, this chair is priced in the higher mid-range, competing with top-tier gaming chairs.
Unboxing and First Impressions
The Backforce V Plus Chair arrives in a dense yet relatively compact box. Assembling the chair requires some effort, even for someone with experience building furniture. The tools and diagrams aren’t user-friendly, so be prepared to dedicate some time to reading the instructions carefully. It took me about 1-2 hours to fully assemble the chair, and having an additional set of hands to help lift and fit parts together is highly recommended.
Design and Build Quality
The Backforce V Plus chair is renowned for its robust build quality, made possible by the use of recycled PET fabric. The chair also boasts customization options, such as velcro patches on the backrest’s shoulder area, adding a fun gamer element and allowing users to personalize their chairs.
- Weight Capacity: 130 kg
- Height Range: 1.51 m to 1.92 m
- Materials: Recycled PET fabric, plastic base
- Armrests: 4D adjustable
- Warranty: 10 years
- Price: €499
The chair’s eco-friendly materials, including Oeko-Tex 100-certified fabric, make it stand out from competitors. While the texture may be slightly rough for some users, the chair remains sturdy and well-built.
In Use
After assembly, the V Plus provides comfortable and ergonomic support. The adjustable lumbar support and synchro-tilt mechanism offer personalized back support, making long gaming or work sessions easier on the body. The armrests are flexible but lack resistance, making them prone to unexpected shifting.
- Seat Depth: Adjustable
- Tilt Adjustments: Adjustable
- Seat Height: Adjustable
One of my team members, who is 5 feet 6 inches tall, has adjusted the backrest, seat depth, armrests, and seat height to fit perfectly. While the chair initially felt firm and supportive, it has softened up over time.
Final Verdict
The Backforce V Plus is a well-built, comfortable, and eco-friendly gaming chair with strong ergonomic features and customizable options. While it has its flaws, including a challenging assembly process and high price, it’s a worthy investment for those who value durability, sustainability, and personalization. If you’re looking for a home office chair suitable for gaming or want the gamer look, this chair is an excellent option.
