Description of Playseats Classic Gaming Seat (Black Alcantara)

This racing stimulation cockpit gives you the ultimate realistic racing experience. Ergonomic race chair for real life race stimulation. Made of high quality materials, non-flammable. Multi adjustable for ages 8 upwards. For use with all Logitech steering wheels, patented folding racing seat and easy to assemble. Playseats works with PC, XBOX 360, NINTENDO GAMECUBE, PS ONE, AND PS2.
With a true-to-life cockpit design, the Playseats classic gaming seat puts you smack dab in the middle of your favorite racing game. The seat works with most racing titles and game systems, including the Xbox 360, GameCube, PlayStation, PlayStation2, and PCs. More importantly, the chair is notably comfortable thanks to its luxurious black Alcantara material--which feels like suede and looks like genuine black leather--all while delivering the most realistic racing simulation around. Just install a game steering wheel on the middle pole and attach a couple of pedals along the bottom (all sold separately).

The setup is easily adaptable, with three adjustment knobs letting you move the wheel and pedals closer or farther, depending on your height. And thanks to the high-quality steel construction, you needn't worry about the gaming seat falling apart after just a few short months. Appropriate for ages 8 and older, the seat is the perfect accessory for gamers who want to boost their lap times in style.

Sports reviews of Playseats Classic Gaming Seat (Black Alcantara)

Customer Review: Good setup for the cost
Sport shop rating: 4 Stars

Good quality racing seat for the cost. Seat is large enough to easily fit a 6", 200 lbs person. It does, however, lack full lower back support for those extended play sessions. Nothing an extra piece of foam or pillow can not fix.

The frame is flexible but still well constructed with plenty of adjustments for player size and reach preference. While it is easy to break it down into two smaller pieces for storage, the seat/frame combination will take up a pretty good chunk of real estate in your room.

I had purchased many "real" racing seats before for costs far higher than this complete seat/frame combination. I definitely recommend this setup for any player.

Customer Review: Works fine
Sport shop rating: 4 Stars

I own a PS3 and the new Logitech GT wheel and the classic does a fine job. If you're hard-core and use the Logitech G25, you may want to spend extra for the Evolution but for console gamers, this should work just fine. It's not rock steady but that has not impacted my driving enjoyment.

Customer Review: Not COMPATABILE with G25 wheel/pedal set
Sport shop rating: 3 Stars

This was by far the least expensive seat available. It's comfortable enough, but I think the frame that the wheel attaches to needs to be stiffer.

I have the G25 Logitech wheel. The foot pedal base is TOO LARGE to properly fit the angled platform that is built in to this gaming seat. I have had to 'rig' it up with other materials so that it can work. Also, unless you are going to keep the seat out all the time near your gaming system, it's awfully cumbersome to move around.
