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.

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.
