I'm 6 foot 4, whats it like for tall people. I have wide shoulders and would be worried my arms wouldn't "fit" where the arm holes are.
When I need a new chair it will be between a second hand Aeron and the AK racer/DX racer line, if arms weren't an issue I would be tempted to use the base of my current chair and bolt on a seat from a scrapped car. Imo the first white chair is nicest but will show dirt more

I'm really tempted to get one of these but reviews are pretty hard to come by, anyone had any experience with them?
I bought the Player Gaming Chair and have found it to be way, way better than expected. I have posted an over view of the unboxing and assembly along with a video over on my small website here: http://www.buzzpods.com
Hopefully the photos and video will give you an idea of the general quality.
I am hoping to post a fuller review in the next few days as well.
In advance of that, I can tell you I have now been using it for about 10 days and I am really happy. Not only is it comfortable, looks and feels like a quality chair but also has the reassurance of the Overclockers customer support.

The Premium range is all 'V2' and it basically means a sturdier metal base.

thanks, judging from that review, I will probably pick one these up soon especially as the orange one is on offer at the moment. £30 off seals the deal.
Like you say the brass clips really don't look good on a chair of that cost

Hi mussard.
To make it rock you need to do two things.
1) You engage/disengage rocking by sliding in and out the lever that adjusts the height. Sliding it in towards the chair disengages/switches rocking off and sliding it away from the chair engages/switches rocking on.
2) You then need to adjust the resistance to the rocking by turning the large knob underneath the chair until you get the level of resistance you prefer.
Enjoy !

You need to look at the dimensions of the chairs you are interested in.
For example, the DX formula has a shallower seat and shorter back height compared to the AKR Nitro. This could be an issue, or not, depending on your height.
