Does anyone have any experience with how the fake leather in all these gaming chairs is going to hold up over time? Desperately trying to find something the Mrs can get me for Xmas. DX Racer seems to be out of stock all over the world (must be nice for them!) so was looking at either a AK Gaming or AK Nitro.
From what I can tell, aside from cosmetics the only difference is fabric or PU (fake bonded) leather. I actually really like the look of both so that's not a problem.
I have had a fake leather chair from our favourite 'Click & Collect' high street store in the past and had to throw it away after 6 months because the covering had cracked and peeled. It was a complete waste of money. I would like to think at the prices we are looking at these will last longer, but any idea how long before it starts to crack and peel?
Every instinct tells me to go for the fabric, but I have long hair and I am concerned that damp hair (from the shower) might stain / mark the fabric? Conversely, my office chair is fabric and cost me 300 notes and is meant to be a really good one, not only have I never been comfortable in it, but the fabric has bobbled from a pair of jeans I used to have that had a button on the rear pocket.
