Hate “Gaming Chairs”? Thermaltake’s CyberChair E500 may be the chair for you

Seeming every major gaming company has released a “gaming chair” over the past few years, and Thermaltake is the latest brand to jump on the bandwagon. That said, Thermaltake is taking a different approach to its competitors, decided to release a chair design that’s fundamentally different from typical “gaming chair” varieties. Meet the Thermaltake CyberChair E500

Where most gaming chairs take design cues from the automotive industry, Thermaltake is taking its design cues from mesh seating like the world-famous Herman Miller Aerion. With mesh cushioning, Thermaltake’s gaming chair is truly breathable and offers styling that’s more professional looking than many racing-style chairs. 

Thermaltake promises a wide range of adjustment options for its new CyberChair E500, promising “high adjustability ranging from headrest, seat depth, height adjustment, and wire-control mechanism with multi lockable positions to reach maximum comfort.” Furthermore, the chair can accommodate users that weigh up to 330 lb (150kg) thanks to its sturdy frame and aluminium base. 

The CyberChair E500 will be available in Q1 2020 with a retail price of $599.99 in the US. The chair will be available at Thermaltake’s online store and though partnered retailers.
