Our verdict
Our value pick for bigger players: a wide spring seat, recline to 135° and a frame its listing rates for 136 kg. The armrests only tilt with the backrest, so check that against how you sit.
Our analysis
Next to the Secretlab Titan Evo, our premium pick, the GTPLAYER Big & Tall is lighter and takes more weight: 18.5 kg against 34.5, and 136 kg of rated load in its listing against 129. The Secretlab answers with adjustment, 165° of recline against 135° and 4D armrests against armrests that only tilt with the backrest. This is the value chair for bigger players, built around a wide sofa-style spring seat.
What stands out
- Spring seat: GTPLAYER describes pocket springs under high-density foam in a wide sofa-style cushion.
- Rated for 136 kg in its listing: the same capacity as the Razer Iskur V2 X and more than the 120 kg of the Corsair TC100 Relaxed.
- 135° of recline: enough to lean back between matches or while watching something.
- 18.5 kg: a chair you can move around the room without much effort.
Where it falls short
The armrests only tilt with the backrest, so you cannot set them to your desk height. The upholstery is faux leather, and our spec sheet lists no lumbar support, while the Iskur V2 X has a curve built into the backrest.
Look elsewhere if
Lower back pain is the issue: the Razer Iskur V2 X keeps the 136 kg rating and adds built-in lumbar support, 2D armrests and 152° of recline. If your room is hot and faux leather bothers you, the Corsair TC100 Relaxed uses breathable fabric and includes lumbar and neck pillows.
What GTPLAYER lists for this chair
GTPLAYER describes the seat as pocket springs under high-density foam, which is where the sofa feel comes from, and an extended high back that reaches from the head to the hips for tall players. The backrest locks at any angle from 90° to 135°, the linkage armrests tilt with it so your elbows stay supported when you lean back, and a footrest slides out from under the seat for a break. Check that recline range and the armrest style against how you sit before you buy: the armrests do not move on their own.
