The Secretlab Titan Evo is hands down the top pick for an all-around gaming chair, thanks to its superb build quality, thoughtful design, variety of customization options, and—most importantly—comfort.
Secretlab has really nailed it with their lumbar support on this model. At this price range, the adjustable support stands out as impressive. There’s a small bulge at the bottom of the Titan Evo’s backrest that you can tweak by simply turning a knob on the side. This lets you make the support more or less prominent to suit your comfort needs. Plus, you can even adjust the height of this lumbar section, offering more tailored support.
The chair also boasts 4D armrests, which is a fancy way of saying you can adjust them up, down, sideways, and even swivel them at an angle, allowing you to find that sweet spot for your arms.
When it comes to headrest support, they’ve ditched the usual straps in favor of a magnetic attachment system. This has its pros and cons. On the one hand, it makes adjusting the pillow a breeze, but on the other, it can be knocked off a bit too easily if you’re not careful.
Customization doesn’t stop at comfort. You can swap out several elements to change the chair’s look and feel. Options include different armrests, footrests, casters, and even machine-washable covers that zip onto the chair’s back and seat.
For sizing, Secretlab has expanded their offerings with the latest Titan Evo models. They come in three sizes. The small size fits people under 5’6”, while the regular comfortably supports those between 5’7” and 6’2” (handling up to 220 pounds). If you’re 5’11” or taller, the large size has got you covered, supporting up to 395 pounds. The small and regular versions are priced at $519, with the large at a slightly higher $569. If that’s stretching the budget, consider the Titan Evo Lite at $449. It skips a few features, including some sizing options, but still offers good value if the full Titan Evo is a bit beyond your means.
