So I have had this crappy chair for many years which is starting to fall apart and I am looking to get a new one.

The consensus seems that the Hero range is decent specifically the black edition.
Im wondering if there is any value in going for the black real leather version?
 
noblechairs will be in stock in the next week. I would advise placing your order, as there are a lot of pre-orders at the moment. Sooner you're in the queue, the more likely you'll receive it ASAP! :)

Happy days, thanks fiveub.
Any ideas when next week? Will it be in time for the weekend?

Incidentally I saw on the OCUK website these "short" and "extra short" bar things. What are these exactly?
 
Oh right, so you can actually make the chair shorter by using these kits?
Is there a way to measure effectively the height that I need to ensure I can tuck my chair under my desk?
 
Ignore this, the gaming gods have smiled on me and my order has just shipped!

Thanks!
Happy for you bud :) Let us know how you get on with it.
Ill crack my box open later this evening.

Brilliant, I was wondering as it doesn't seem to mention either on the page. Now do I order this and a footstool together...

A noble footstool? Do point the way! Which one?
 
Ah cheers.

So all assembled...
What a chair. Feel like the emperor man!

@fiveub is there any guide how to tie the lower cushion? Ive just attached them using the long straps provided but just wonderin if there is an optimal way to do it?

Also the seat is a little on the firm side, but I guess this will give way with time?
(this is what I read).
 
Ah ok understood. So I can take the straps off them no need?
Why does the Epic have the holes for this? Can you link to what it looks like...

More hours in this chair.
I could literally live here...
Dont suppose there are toilet options for this? :D

Cheers fiveub, very happy with this purchase. Love this chair.
 
So folks. Ive had the chair for a few weeks now.


Its a lovely chair... except for one thing...

The edge of the seat where my legs come over the edge... seems to dig into the back of my thighs.... to the point where there is "discomfort" rather than pain.

Ive said that I would persevere to see if this would break in, but after several weeks of DAILY usage.... nothing is giving....

Am I being anal here or have others experienced similar?

I have to say it is quite a firm seat, not very cushiony/pillowy? compared to other seats Ive had...
 
Thanks for your input linwelin.

Can you relate to the issue I mentioned above? The front of the seat kind of jutting out a little into the back of the thighs?

Did you say that has gotten softer at the front or all around the seat?

(Visually when you look at it, it doesnt seem to jut out....)

Also do you notice does the chair have a little bit of a rock (even when the "going back" lever is fixed?)
 
Cheers bud, food for thought.
Just to confirm you dont experience any slight rocking motion if you lean forward and back (even when the seats are locked in place?)
