So the XL is not for men? Why not include it in this video. That's so weird and gives us a limited view. The biggest person in part 2 is only 177.8cm.

[@Ahnestly]

@@TheKingOfSexyness look at the dates - didn’t have the XL at the time. I bought these chairs with my own money and couldn’t afford a third one at the time

[@TheKingOfSexyness]

@@Ahnestly That may very well be however you included "XL" in your youtube title which creates a certain expectation to see it covered. No biggie though, I'm just someone who's right on the edge of regular and XL and am wondering if XL would be too big for me. That's why I'm searching for reviews.

[@Locke-ij5ve]

My hunt for a decent chair began last week or so. Back then it was Iskur vs. Enki vs. Titan Evo 2022 (leatherette vs. soft weave). Today I narrowed it down to one. I cannot describe how incredibly helpful you’ve been. Like, creepily helpful. To the point where I start to have questions about a chair, you seem to release a video answering exactly what I was wondering about. Didn’t know you can read minds, magic man. Thanks again, and you can bet that I’ll be using your link to purchase my chair!

[@Ahnestly]

Hahahaha this made me laugh. Glad I could help! I can say of the 13+ people who have come, everyone has really liked the Titan Evo 2022. I'd say 1-2 people liked the Iskur

[@Ghoulius]

Thank you THANK YOU for including those detailed body measurements!!! I'm surprised this isn't more common in chair reviews! Leg measurements seem especially important with these chairs and their abyssal seat depths... I'm 5'6" and I think I'll pass on the Evo. I like to curl up in my chair and the Titan seems good for that, but when I do want to put my legs down that feeling on the back of my knees is going to drive me insane.

[@Ahnestly]

Gotta get a wide seat bottom with soft edges. Embody, neue, gesture, leap are all good fits! I’ve reviewed all of them, in case you’re curious!

[@TomGB-81]

I've recently had the XL chair and it is so perfect! My previous chair was the Vertagear PL6000 which lasted almost 6 years. I'm 6ft 0.5" / 184cm and 16st/224lb / 101kg. There is by far plenty of room in this chair with the arm-rests set at their narrowest position. I've got the chair raised about half an inch / 2cm and my legs can easily touch the ground (I wear trousers with 33-34" inside-leg).

[@jeebtheboss]

I'm 179cm, and I bought the regular. Actually I didnt realize before that video that the seat depth was different with the Small size. I totally agree, the regular size is a bit too deep. If I would have known that, I would have thought more seriously about the Small size vs the regular... But then Im not sure if my shoulder would have fit, me personally I dont like if I cant have my shoulders totally open in the chair. Conclusion: I think I'm between the 2 sizes actually hahaha ! And agree, this chair is definitely not for short people ! People below 168/170cm: forget it!

@@assassinz16 , hi, I am also broad shouldered and the Regular size is good for me in this respect. The thing with it is that its seat is a bit long and my knees are almost touching the seat when I sit properly. But you are 4cm taller than me, so I hope you wouldn't have this problem. Just keep in mind that the XL has an even longer seat. I think it is 1cm longer. It might not seem a lot, but it makes a difference. My STRONG advise is to check for a showroom near you and test it yourself before buying. I hope this helped.

Hello ahnestly great videos I purchased the xl 2022 and used your videos to help make my decision. I’m 6’3 and about 310 and it is a super comfortable chair. Only gripe I have is when it’s in the locked position it’s still has a little rocking back and forth. I’ve looked at all your videos and never seen you talk about that. But thanks again for your reviews.

[@Ahnestly]

All chairs have a slight rock back and forth unfortunately!

[@jakobvipa767]

I have the same problem. I am 170cm and bought a regular size. My foot don’t touch the ground and seat is too long so it always touch back of my knee. Used it for 2 weeks and had enough, sold it and bought HM Embody.

[@mike35424]

I had this exact experience. Finally someone calling it out. I am 5'8" and I bought the Regular, per SecretLab's sizing guide. I felt like I was being devoured. by the seat. It worked and i could technically find a comfortable position, but it just wasn't practical. I returned it for the Small and thought it felt much better.That being said, I'm returning the chair all together for other reasons.

[@Ahnestly]

Good to hear my findings are being validated!

[@DrR1pper]

Hi Cold-brew. If you don't mind me asking, what were the other reasons? Thanks!

[@mike35424]

@@DrR1pper I found the chair too stiff and kind of clunky. I wanted it to be able to kick back and rest my head while I was working, but it turned out to not be great for that. I am using a Steelcase Leap v.2 now and much happier.

I’m 5’10 too and got the XL. I like the extra wiggle room idea. I should be getting it in 2 days. How are you liking the XL since you’ve had the newer model?

[@owenchuarbx]

In my previous workplace, I tried the XL version of the Titan (2020 model.) So it's only natural to get the same size as it feels comfortable to sleep on even though I'm 5 ft 10". The reason why regular may not fit me is because of my weight, about a kilogrammes and it may not tolerate my weight if I pack a few more kilos.

[@Goldentriceps]

The regular is good for up to 100kg..

[@Nynxxx]

How many lbs/kg do you weigh if I may ask? I am interested in getting an titan evo, but unsure about the regular/XL as I am 5ft10, and weigh around the 100kg mark

[@9rurudayo]

this was the review i needed! i've been considering to buy this chair for a while but i couldn't decide whether i should take the SM or regular size. by the way, i think it would be really cool if you could ask some women to review the chairs, too. there are some factors specific to female body types and it's been near impossible for me to find opinions or answers involving those. i'd volunteer, but i'm afraid i'm too far away

[@JOb3rting]

I am 5' 7" 150lbs and the regular fits me perfect. Sizing is subjective, and I think the only way to truly find the perfect one for you is to sit in one. Also the part you mention about feet touching the ground is quite confusing, as both chairs do go up and down. I found it odd that the 5' 10" guy said he could barely touch, when me being 3 inches shorter have no problem touching flat at desk height

[@Ahnestly]

you're right, sizing is subjective. But that's why I included their measurements so people could see for themselves! Glad it fits you, but just as you're confused, I'm also confused...a few of my 5'10 friends (including Charles from The Blind Guys) mentioned he had trouble touching the ground - same as my wife who's also 5'7!

[@Patiencelim]

Hey Dan! Just wondering, for someone whom is 5’3 and on a petite side, would you suggest getting the secretlab small or Iskur? Or would Herman miller be a better fit? Perhaps, the one deciding point for me is the lumbar support to kick my habit of sitting hunched and also prevent my feet from dangling mid air. Hmm~

[@Ahnestly]

Hi Patience! I really think the Herman Miller would be a better fit. With your dimensions, I think it's going to be really really critical your feet are planted on the ground which will help keep you from hunching - think of it this way - if your legs are dangling and you need to get closer to the screen, what do you instinctively do? You hunch to put your face closer because your feet aren't available to help you scooch in. Now if your feet are on the ground, that doesn't mean you won't hunch, but you can use your feet to help move the chair closer to see. Check out my video "Which Herman Miller Gaming Chair is Best for You?" video - you'll see that all 3 should be a great fit for you!!

Thanks for this. I'm 5'7 but on the heavier side, so deciding if I should go the XL for a wider seat. This is the video I was needing to compare how different bodies actually fit in the chairs. Even though you didn't demonstrate the XL it's very clear it will be way too tall/deep for me and not worth it for the few extra centimetres on the seat. Unfortunately don't have anywhere I can try them out first so appreciate this. :)

Thanks your vids have helped a ton. Was disappointed that I can't really afford super high end office chairs but honestly, I've had my DXRacer for 10 years and really just love the fit, rocking, and reclining of these "racing" style chairs. I don't think I'd be able to lounge the way I do in a higher end office chair, kick back and binge youtube or PC game with my controller. Certain sitting positions that just don't look possible in those office chairs. Maybe I'm lying to myself to justify buying one of these but should have my Titan Evo in a few days to tell. Hope the referral links in your description still help you out 2 years later.

Dan I absolutely love your chair review videos! I would love to get the soft weave Titan Evo however, I'm a 5ft 5 woman but I have wide hips (and a booty lol) and a longer torso but short legs - I also don't sit on my chair conventionally (I like to cross my legs and sit in all kinds of ways that occupational health would frown at lol!). I'm wondering if it's worth me going for the regular size chair rather than the small for that reason as I don't like to sit with my feet flat on the floor anyway and I like the thought of the deeper seat space. Thank you and keep up the great work! (I also subbed from the first video I watched)

[@Ahnestly]

a booty, you say? :-D lolol thanks for the kind words!! You nailed it - if you're predominantly putting your feet up, the regular would be a better fit due to more space within the chair. The lumbar sits pretty much identically on your back!

Hey Dan I stumbled across your channel after researching what chair I should get to use in my new dorm room. I want to say that your videos are incredibly high quality and i was pleasantly surprised finding that out when you only have 30k subs. And your commentary is way too entertaining for mostly talking about chairs all the time. I hope the algorithm blesses you in the near future. I’ve got an old dxracer at home and I’ve realized how awful it is for my back so I was thinking about picking up a titan evo but after browsing opinions on Reddit I went down the rabbit hole of steelcase and Herman miller which led me to your channel. Now I’m having trouble deciding between a titan evo and a “remanufactured” leap v2 from Crandall for $600 (I don’t have a car so I can’t go around looking for a used chair so at least I know what I’ll get from Crandall). I’m 5’9” and skinny with a long torso and I often sit cross legged and in some weird positions . What do you think?

[@Ahnestly]

Hm that's a tough one. IMHO, the Leap will be one of the least offensive chairs you can buy, and since you're skinny, I don't think you have to worry about "bottoming out" on the seat pad.

[@splinterskulll]

@@Ahnestly yeah and even so I think Crandall adds an extra 3/4 of an inch to the foam seat anyway which would help a good amount. My only concern would be being able to lounge comfortably in the chair when I’m watching a movie or something. In your review you said the leap doesn’t have a very far range to tilt back in, so do you think this would be an issue, at least in comparison to other office chairs?

[@Ahnestly]

If you like to lounge, then yeah it is gonna be an issue. Basically anything without head coverage is gonna be an issue. The titan has a pillow which makes it the best of all chairs for lounging. I’ve gotten some DMs lately saying how much they loved the titan evo 2022…my friends liked it and since you can lounge or scooch up into the chair, you can change up your position in the chair if you feel discomfort. Hope this helps! If you get the titan evo 2022, please consider using my link! Helps a lot. I’m supposed to be doing a video with Crandall soon as well…just need to find the time!

Great video. The one thing I want to know about the Evo chair, and no reviewer says anything about..... Most gaming chairs arm rests don't lower enough to go under the desk so I can use my full arm on the desk. I usually have to remove the arm rest on the right side because I use a big corner desk. That's the only thing I'm worried about for this chair. I'm hoping that they will move out of the way enough that I don't have to remove them.

Thank you @Ahnestly for useful guides on this channel, I've watched quite a few videos (for me you're "the" chair reviewer on KZbin) and decided I want to give gaming chairs one more try so picked up a Titan Evo 2022 Regular using your link. I'm ~183cm/6" tall & ~75kg/165 lbs so fairly slim (perhaps slightly wide shoulders, but only slightly) but my only worry is whether the headpillow will be at a suitable height or not but otherwise I think Regular will be more worth it than XL as I kind of like sitting at a perhaps couple cm lower height than "typically", my current chair I got at the lowest setting of 45cm which is same as the Regular so didn't want to go any higher. My past experience with a gaming chair was with some DXRacer one but hated it so much I had to give up due to the metallic bolsters at the sides limiting the seating position and the sides hugged me a bit much too (therefore I couldn't use a HM Aeron either but I'm not either prepared to go full-out on HM Embody either). At least it looks like you can spread your legs a little in these and I sometimes put one leg over the other etc, I'm like really switching between a lot of various seating positions so typically gaming chairs hasn't been that good fit other than a couple options here and there which has a more flat base. Been using an fairly cheap ergo mesh chair from amazon ~150€ but the problem with these budget chairs from amazon apart from otherwise offering solid comfort vs price ratio is the seat really will sink in after like 1-2 years of use already. That in turn made the lumbar support even in the lowest position too high for me so have had to put an extra cushioning to the base in order to lift me up but now that one is slowly starting to sink in as well and figured it's about time I step up my budget a little bit due to how many hrs I sit everyday. I liked all the adjustability and the now added vertical adjustment of lumbar support to the SL 2022 lineup sold me over on these chairs. I read a lot about creaking issues but my current mesh chair also started creaking quite significantly after a while but as a headphone user it hasn't really bothered me tbh so I could live with a bit creaking if it's otherwise good.

[@Ahnestly]

Thanks for the kind words! Yeah that's why i demonstrated what it would look like on different height people - the regular headrest area should fit fine!

[@emrys95]

did you get a chance to try out the regular yet? let me know if/when u do im also thinking of order this chair, i had my sights on dxracer air but idk this seems more comfortable? but then i hear about the seat being too hard and idk again :(

[@RPGWiZaRD]

@@emrys95 No not yet and there's probably lots of orders rn being Black Week n all. I could update here when I do recieve it how it fits me. I'm rather picky even if I'm perhaps not spending so much as I should on a chair so I'm quick at pointing out small details that doesn't work well for me. :p Regarding DXRacer Air I would write that off my list based on that plastic bar alone at the lower-back. I don't know what DXRacer were thinking there, for me instantly when I would see a chair I would be like "no-no-no" that bar has to go. Sure you can sit slightly further ahead and (mostly) avoid having your lower-back resting up against it but what about when the chair wears down? I would definitely have lots of concerns regarding that. Another concern would be the hugeload of plastic junk at the sides which restricts arm movement way too much, already on the Secret Labs chair I'm slightly worried about the protruding sides of the backrest but I think it should be a lot more maneagable vs the DXRacer at least. Also the plastic hard sides at the edge of the seat is a no-go for me with my varying seating position would dig in my legs or feet and create discomfort when I spread out legs or sit crosslegged or whatever. Those aspects wrote me off the DXRacer chair rather instantly based on seeing it. YMMV.

[@emrys95]

@@RPGWiZaRD EXACTLY what you said is why im also not immediately picking up the dxracer, that and also the lumbar seems to be very subtle idk, i suffer from lower back pain sometimes and want a bigger lumbar. Why did u choose regular over XL btw? Im also worried for the titan that the seat will be too hard and my ass will go numb/stiff when sitting for a lot, i hate it when that happens on chairs.

[@RPGWiZaRD]

@@emrys95 I chose Regular based on the testimonial in this video, Yong is even slightly bigger than me and the chair looks to fit him just fine, we seem to have roughly the same kind of body shape although I'm just little bit slimmer/smaller (or cough probably just not as well worked out cough) overall. I also have a preference of lower seating position, I usually set the seating position so legs are roughly strait / very slightest bit so knees point upwards if legs are at 90 degree and I tend to place feet ever so slightly forward instead so not the perfect 90 degree position, my current chair I think had 43cm seating height in the lowest position although I've added now additional memory foam seat so it's more like 44-45cm, anyway I wouldn't want to have much higher seating height than I'm used to and Regular is 45m as opposed to 46m of the XL. Another slight worry regarding going XL would be whether or not the lumbar support would go low enough (or maybe they would be the same), with my experiences for me the lumbar support tends to be unnecessary high up on most of the chairs that I'm typically at the lowest setting and sometimes that is not even low enough for me, on my current chair I even have a slim extra pillow at the very base below the lumbar support, helps with comfort in my case. Yes seat might be a bit stiffer but I don't mind that personally and typically expensier ergo chairs are stiffer in general and in the long run it's appearently good for the body or so they say according to studies anyway. I got used to sit on a totally compressed chair seat when I studied so it felt more like sitting without any cushioning whatsoever so maybe that got me used to stiffer seats. Most people seem to initially think these Secret Labs chairs feel a bit stiff at first but appearently it loosens up some after a week or two of use so I'm not too worried about that personally. The stiffness also means it's not as likely to compress with time. My seat at work is also the same, doesn't compress really at all yet it feels good to me and it hasn't changed at all after years of use and I like that as opposed to these budget seats I'm used to that compresses a lot in already 1-2 years of heavy use.

[@johannesr6458]

Hello, I have a question about the lumbar support on the XL and the regular model and it's possibility to adjust it. 🙂 I am relatively tall (6'4 / 193 cm), I could easily take the Titan Evo XL, but I would prefer the "regular", because I have very narrow shoulders and the armrests on the XL are too far apart for me. I measured. How far up can the lumbar support be raised on the regular in comparison to the XL? How many inches / cm can I raise to lumbar support higher on the XL, compared to the regular? Do you understand what I mean? I would appreciate a qualified answer. Greetings from Germany 🙂 Johannes

[@auraaqua4418]

Just bought a regular evo 22 black soft weave, I used your link, I was going to wait til April 1st but my last chair snapped to I need a new one as quick as I can

Ima keep it Ahnest. I think you’re too short :( even with a footrest! check out my video on what chair should you buy for other chair ideas

[@nicks2002]

Do you have a video or can you do a video where Edmund reviews the XL?? I've been looking around for a while at chairs and this video was super useful as I have the same body shape & size as Edmund (although I'm about 20kg more) so thought I might be set on the Regular size. I'd bought a Vertagear back in lockdown based on their sizing charts and it was not the right fit for pretty much all the negatives Edmund had for the Small Titan. Then I saw your video with the girls on how much more comfortable the XL is (typical as its also more expensive!) so would love to get his take on it!

[@kimjennifer5794]

I’m 5ft7 but I sit with my legs crossed on the chair. Would you say the small is still fine for legs crossing?

[@Ahnestly]

I saw your comment on the other video! Let me know if you have any other questions!

[@user-fm8rn1dv1s]

Do you agree with Edmund on the preference of the weave fabric over the hybrid leather? Also would you recommend this for someone who's working remotely? I just started a new remote gig and love to play pc games so I'm looking at spending a lot of time in my chair. Trying to figure out if this will work for me or if I should go with something more akin to an office chair. So glad I found your channel btw. Easy subscribe.

[@Ahnestly]

Thanks for the sub! And yes, I much prefer the fabric over the pleather. As for spending a lot of time in the chair, i'd say the titan evo 2022 is the most comfortable chair of its style (bucket gaming chair), but if someone were doing longgg stretches of sitting, I'd still recommend a typical office chair.

Can you help recommend a chair for people who sit up straight a lot? I need something with great lumbar support and flexibility and a great cushion. Weird to say but when I'm working or gaming I don't lean back into my chair. Unless there's a chair out there known to be upright

[@Shrimpie7515]

Do you reccomend the faux leather or the cloth? I like the colors of the cloth, but I also like how it'll be easier to clean with the leather thoughts?

[@Ahnestly]

I personally prefer cloth. Less slippage, more breathability!

[@yellow_id]

Hey Dan, (if you see this) so I'm roughly 5'8" - 5'9" but 250 lbs. Which of these chairs should I get considering the weight limit? I know there's a lot of other chairs out there but for gaming I decided to go for the titan because of the different material options as my state gets hot and cold throughout the year. I will say I do have a wider build than normal also for my body type.

[@Ahnestly]

I would say you should probably go with the Regular if your legs aren't that much longer than the 5'10 reviewer in this video! I would caution against an XL, but if you end up going for that for more width, you may want to pick up a footrest in case you need more contact with the floor! If you decide to pick up, please consider using my link! helps this channel a LOT!

[@yellow_id]

@@Ahnestly as much as I would like to go with the regular, I'm only concerned about the weight limit that's on it since I weigh 250

[@SleepyFen]

I would assume a broad-shouldered 5'9" would benefit most from getting the regular + a foot rest for the best of all worlds.

[@Ahnestly]

I did a part 2 and a lot of the people preferred the XL bc they said it was so soft!

This video was very informative, liked and subscribed! I do have a question I'm hoping you could answer. I'm 5'6"+, weigh 200# and have 19" shoulders. I really like the idea of the small for the seat depth and height, but I'm concerned about the narrowness of the small over the regular.

[@Ahnestly]

I really don't think youd enjoy the regular because your feet won't hit the ground. I think you'd be fine with the small and make sure to get a foot rest!

[@ChicagoBulls1984]

I'm 5'11" 170. Thinking of buying the regular sized one for console gaming and guitar playing. With that said can the entire armrests be removed? Also if I was to use this on thicker carpeting would the base still work if I took the wheels off??? I should be able to compensate the difference in height with the height adjustmdent right?

[@Ahnestly]

I think the armrest can be removed, but if I remember correctly, it comes with the arms on. Usually with these frames, the arms can be removed. As for the base without wheels...man, I really can't say haha. I want to say yes? But it might be risky...

[@dennisjusto6574]

Thanks, you just saved me my money, i'm 5'3 hence im not getting neither small nor regular.

[@talhakhokhar]

I've been looking for a good chair for months now and your videos have answered pretty much everything I needed to know about it, but I'm still unsure what size to get I just had to be at the edges of both of the chairs range. I have a feeling the small would probably fit me better, I'm about 171cm basically a tad above 5'7 but I'm quite lightweight at around 54 kg/120 pounds so I was wondering what size you think I should get?

[@Ahnestly]

Hey! So I would say you can always go for the regular, but just be prepared to buy a footrest! I have really short legs so that might contribute to why the regular felt as big as it did for me! Hope this helps! Please consider using my link - helps this channel a LOT!

@@Ahnestly Thanks man, will do, do you think the titan would be ok for sitting on 8 hours+.

[@Ahnestly]

I’ve had some guys swear by it. It really depends on your body type and unfortunately I can’t help you with that. I will say that the chair allows you to change up your position to relieve pressure off your back if you need it, which is something isn’t offered by a lot of chairs!

[@talhakhokhar]

[@swampje1985]

Thanks for this comparison! For my height (172cm) and quite broad shoulders, the Regular should fit. Unfortunately, I'm well over the max weight limit of 130kg for that chair... So now I'm thinking: should I go with the XL size merely for my weight and risk that my feet won't be able to touch the ground, or is the Regular size broad and sturdy enough for me? 🤔

[@Ahnestly]

You might be better off with the XL, as the sizes really expand in width, and not as much in height. Also, a footrest is an easy solve for any foot not touching the floor issue (I made a video on footrests, so you can check that out if needed!)

[@CitarNosis317]

Yeah, I agree, most gaming chairs are simply too tall. They could go with smaller / flatter wheels ( I don't know why they don't do that ). Like if you are 5'6, you are probably not 500 pounds. It'd be 100% fine if the wheels could only sustain less weight and you could just replace them or something. :/ Honestly, I don't think there are any gaming chairs that are good for smaller people. Office chairs exist, but they are really hard to find in other countries. Spent my past few days looking for one, and nothing. Wish IKEA did good chairs.

[@JustS0meK1dd]

Honestly, my experience is that many gaming chairs are all made too short, or at least they have lacking adjustment options for my size (I am quite tall at 6"4). The headrests only come up to my upper back instead of my actual head, and the gas lifts are usually slightly too short meaning my legs aren't properly positioned at a right angle because of it. I usually have to customise chairs, or get models specifically made for my height, which are sometimes hard to come by. My 5"4 fiancée finds it much easier to purchase chairs than I do.

[@hexenfree]
