Hi,

“the most comfortable razer chair”  “essential all-day comfort” -Site advertisement

Definitely not feeling like that’s the case at the moment, my ass, back and legs are in agony. I purchased my Enki X April 2022, unfortunately I was never offered the protection plan or made aware of it. 

 


The chair has become extremely uncomfortable to the point where I’m weighing up getting a new chair completely. I’ve just replaced the gas cylinder for the second time (which is fine and expected with most gas cylinder chairs). Whilst it has helped, it’s not solved the issues I'm having.

I think the problem is a combination of poor product design and use over time. I think that given the lumber support isn’t adjustable, I’m not sitting as far back in the chair as I should be which will put more strain on the front of the cushion base. This in turn doesn’t give me the right support under my thighs either. Additionally, It’s also described as “With a softer seat base for a cushier feel, and a firmer seat backing for solid support” -site advertisement. Which leads me to believe it could be less durable as a result. This combined with regular use is probably why it’s currently a nightmare to sit on. 

Anyway, rant aside, I’m wanting to replace the seat base or even use an alternative foam if that is an option. Am I able to get a new cushion or are there any recommendations for something to use as an alternative? 

I have a mechanical background so I’m more than happy to fix it myself, just want to know what direction to head before forking out for a completely different chair. 

Thanks in advance.
