A special cutout in the seat allows you to pee into the bottle without having to get up from the computer. Now everyone can spend even more time in the verse.

Chair will be worn out and SC will still be alpha. LMFAO!
1000 is just insane. could see it possibly if it came with the chair mounts included. Add chair mounts and your at like 1500? crazy

Yeah, it does look cool. But 1500 gets you an actual simpit to put next to a decent ergo chair. Niche product with some flash branding. Doesn't feel like great value but their stuff is quality at least & it's got some features you aren't getting out the box elsewhere. It's not for me but I don't think it's egregious either.

If you think about it. This is a $700 "ship" with a $200 "paint"
Dude i sit on a basic 4 legged wood chair with a cushion in the base and back. I think it was like 30$
900$ for a piece of plywood and some memory foam. Had one of those "gaming chairs" Never ever again, bought an ergonomic office chair and have no regrets at all.
I stopped trying gaming chairs . I never had one that the comfort matched the price . They were mostly disappointing. Nothing seems to compare to a mesh ergo style office chair . The first company to make a meshed ergo with mount options will win the chair wars
I was going to ask who in there right mind would pay 1200$ for a chair then I realized this is star citizen.
I want an Aegis .... but damn, $1000. $700 would be my upper limit
A white leather with a vibrant blue stitching Crusader chair
If you're looking into spending 4 digits for a chair, I'd really recommend checking out high end office chairs like HM or Haworth. I got an Embody on sale and it solved a lot of the body pains I've had from previous "gaming" chairs.
I use a $15 foldable metal chair that has paint splatter because I also used it when I painted my ceilings.
For that price, the gap in the middle of the seat cushion better be for an included "happy ending" feature.
Crusader! A giant white chair with a tiny glowing blue strip around the main seem!! lol
If you buy the non-CIG affiliate version of the exact same chair from the exact same company, it's about 300 bucks cheaper. Anybody spending money on SC could probably stand to save 300 bucks. You can also get a real leather office/gaming chair for around 500/600 bucks.
I would say SC has more than a few sim enthusiasts, but the vast majority of SC fans have not. This is just another chair, with corporate backing and shiny logo's designed to appeal to those with lots of money. I paid about £200 for my ergonomic chair, and it's very comfortable, alas it has no fancy logos' 😉😉
Wish they had an option to not have the cutout in the chair. I get why it's there but I don't use a center flight stick. $1k price tag is a bit too much for me, but cool to see, they are nice looking.
Sim gear for arcade game. Makes sense bruh
I work from home, so i have to sit 40 hours a week, minimum sitting in a chair. That's before gaming. It's nice but way out of my price range.
Not sure if I will get one of the SC chairs, but I am planning on getting one of their non SC chairs because of the range of motion they allow for when using sticks.
1k.... I really cant find the right words
I bought some chairmounts from Monstertech about two months ago for my DX Racer chair. The mounts are not cheap, but they are super stable. I also have a mouse mat and keyboard tray now attached my chair. It really helps with immersion.
I like the theme they did for RSI as it is my second favorite manufacturer, but wondering what they will do for Origin personally as it is my favorite. Will probably end up with one of them in a MTSIM rig I am building as my next gaming desk with swap-able big desk for other keyboard and mouse games. Current gaming/office chair is the DXRacer Boss XL that they no longer make. It on sale was $600, but many office chairs go into the multi-thousand dollar range.
Eh, for a "gaming" chair it's probably fine (and they look really cool), but at this price point I'd 100% get the Herman Miller Embody or Aeron chairs when they go on sale.
I want an Origin chair in white leather but it needs to be a serta 12 hour manager or executive.
Shame on you for promoting a $1000 chair
As a person who’s been sitting in the same $150 office chair for 5 years, I am very interested in a new and much better sitting experience, and I might actually be enticed into one of these, so I’ll be watching to see how it goes.
I'll wait for v2.0 of that chair. I don't want to go through the floor and end up in the cellar.
2:00 was the thing I wanted to know to get sold!
In a world where people spend $4000 real dollars on an internet space ship, something like this makes total sense 😂 In all seriousness though, if you sit for more than an hour a day doing anything, a good chair can make a huge difference for those of us over 25, or significantly older like myself.
That all sounds promising, and it's probably mostly true. But it's still not a flight chair for pilots! It's an office chair, slightly modified.
Drake chair now! The peoples chair. It should be all cloth and the least expensive option.
My neighbor deals in chairs, gave us a couple overstock $1k+ office chairs during lockdown. Good gravy is there a world of difference between high end chairs and crap. Would I spend it myself though...
Happy to hear it can take a punch. Might have to get one noe that it's specs are out!
Missed opportunity for a flying chair-punch intro
I try not to interfere with affiliate material. People gotta eat. Yet, I did chuckle at the part going over the chair's features. It leans back. It swivels. The chairs aren't for me, but if people have the money and want to buy it, then drop coin and go get it. This is Star Citizen.
You did great. Very clear and it was nice to see that you chose a specific use case. I am intending on the getting the Anvil chair with the mounts for center stick, right mouse+control panel extention, and left throttle. Monster tech is very durable and I think it'll be great alternative to my Herman Miller Embody chair. For one I like that it's tall and slim, the locking casters and central strut are a must. I just wish they would put the new chairs in the cockpit configurator.
Ill be disapointed if the drake chair is not just an ikea chair held together with drake tape :)
The chair’s armrests are really painful, they dig into your arms when using the flight sticks properly attached and adjusted. The chair caused me months of pain and several medical bills with pain similar to tennis elbow until a doctor figured it out and told me to quit using the chair. I have two other friends in the SC community that have suffered identical medical issues associated with this chair; I do not recommend it
Beautiful chairs! And now Mike can punch the RSI logo when they get out of line 😝
An Origin chair would have to be baller! Or maybe a CNOU chair with the brown leather look.
I'd love to see an Origin chair, but that price tag is downright painful and will be a huge barrier for most.

Seems there was a patch, but version number remains the same after the update..
Honestly for that much you should consider something like a steelcase instead
A quick review that easy to understand I like the video format. The product I see the appeal I'd consider one perhaps if my current chair needed replacing.
Looks good but totally not worth that price tag
Bro I kid you not I just bought a monster tach chair like two weeks ago and now they released these. I'm legit fooking pissed mate
They need to make a Constellation version, and thanks for the video.
I have a $2500 chair at work and a $150 gaming chair at home. I can't tell a big difference. So 1k for a chair that probably end up like what I have already....

@LuminairPrime nope. I always mount my stuff to my rig. Mike was speaking in terms of it as a chair. The "lockable wheels" are a $100 upgrade too which is nuts.
they should have started with Drak and Argo chairs.
I would go with black/blue with just a touch of white for origin!
Loving the look, but not the price. Would LOVE a Drake version, it would fit the aesthetic of having cables running everywhere.
Let me know if they come out with an Origin chair
No chair enthusiast would really consider this chair for the price point… but everyone can spend or misspend their money however they like. There are a couple of good chair reviewers on YT that can give good recommendations for this price point or less.
Being in a hot climate myself (Texas), have you ever tried the wool top version of the seat? I’m currently using a secret labs chair and the “synthetic leather” is being destroyed by my cats and by my butt. Also it’s hot to sit in. Thought maybe the wool would survive longer.
Great Review Salty just funny they gave everyone the same forced talking points to get the free chair. Good review Loved the close ups of it and your personal touch.
Drake already has a chair, it's the big box they ship those chairs in!
A little more and I have a Herman Miller with a 12 year warranty…hard pass on this. Oh wait, I have the Herman Miller Aeron already. Edit. I just love commenting from an iPhone and having “Miller” turned into “Milker”.
White and Red Drake or Dark Grey and Yellow Drake would be awesome.
I like SecretLabs chairs better. I tried an earlier chair of MonsterTech the seat broke down too quick for me. No I am not over 300 lbs. Thanks for the update.
Solid sim chair - not for everyone but a good choice for those looking at sim options
i was looking for an upgrade, but the pricetag ?! and then probably the shipping cost aswell fml
will it fit in a cutlass black ? 😮
Utter ridiculous pricing. Much better chairs for less.
would be funny to me if Star Citizen started having real world ads in game and in the mobi glass. And then see Salte rant about the ad noise and extra SC revenue with no progress.
The Drake version will be a folding camp chair, held together with duct tape. 🙄
I like the ability to theme a chair, but no cloth option and most of all the price are a no-go for me.
They can launch a fully functional product.
Drake chair. And yes we do need the punch test
If the chair came with a bunch of addons i might consider it but that price for just the base thing is dilutional from the maker of this.
But where is the Drake chair?
I like it, and ill probably get one someday... when theres a sale... from a Cap Ship collector. Its a bit much
uhhh!!! I like the idea of an ARGO chair... But I'd probably go with MISC as well...
How about the ARMRESTS? Do They break like in all other "gaming chairs"?

I'd expect the chair to have a foot mount or joystick holders for that price. It's way beyond overpriced.

Was your chair sent to you for free to test out? In Cdn we have Uline and they have a great one for $490cdn. Ill use a white maker and write Drake on it and save myself some $. Total with shipping for 1 of the chairs comes to $1697.56 with GST. so Im saving $1207.56.
