The
Backforce
V
Plus
is
the
latest
in
the
line
of
gaming
chairs
that
can
also
function
as
an
office
chair.
Like
so
many
of
the
best
office
chair
models
we’ve
reviewed,
it
is
designed
with
both
gamers
and
professionals
in
mind,
blending
the
two
worlds
seamlessly.
The
mix
of
customizable
features,
comfort,
lumbar
support,
personalization
options,
and
eco-friendly
materials
make
up
a
fantastic
option
for
consumers.
Backforce
V
Plus:
Price
and
Availability
The
Backforce
V
Plus
is
available
for
around
€499
(roughly
$535),
with
shipping
options
primarily
in
Europe.
Custom
patches
and
other
upgrades
can
add
to
the
cost.
The
chair’s
price
places
it
in
the
higher
mid-range,
competing
with
some
top-tier
gaming
chairs,
but
with
the
unique
appeal
of
eco-friendly
materials.

V
Plus:
Unboxing
and
First
Impressions
The
Backforce
V
Plus
Chair
arrives
in
a
dense
yet
relatively
compact
box.
The
chair
took
a
while
to
build,
even
for
someone
who
spends
quite
a
bit
of
time
building
chairs.
The
tools
and
diagrams
aren’t
user-friendly,
so
allocate
some
extra
time
to
read
the
instructions
carefully.
It
took
me
about
1-2
hours
to
fully
assemble,
and
having
an
additional
set
of
hands
to
help
lift
and
fit
parts
together
is
highly
recommended.
Once
assembled,
the
chair
looks
impressive—sleek,
stylish,
and
clearly
designed
with
durability
in
mind,
but
the
effort
required
to
get
it
there
could
be
off-putting
for
some.

The
Backforce
V
Plus
chair
is
known
for
its
robust
build,
made
possible
by
recycled
PET
fabric.
It
also
offers
customization
options,
such
as
velcro
patches
on
the
backrest’s
shoulder
area,
adding
a
fun
gamer
element
and
allowing
users
to
personalize
their
chairs.
However,
its
heavy
and
bulky
design
may
not
be
suitable
for
those
with
limited
space,
as
it’s
challenging
to
maneuver,
especially
in
smaller
areas.
The
chair’s
eco-friendly
materials,
including
Oeko-Tex
100-certified
fabric,
make
it
stand
out
from
competitors,
but
some
users
may
find
the
texture
slightly
rough
for
long
sessions.
Despite
having
a
plastic
base,
as
opposed
to
the
aluminum
bases
of
its
competitors,
the
chair
remains
sturdy
and
well-built.
Backforce
V
Plus:
In
Use
After
assembly,
the
V
Plus
provides
comfortable
and
ergonomic
support.
The
adjustable
lumbar
support
and
synchro-tilt
mechanism
offer
personalized
back
support,
making
long
gaming
or
work
sessions
easier
on
the
body.
The
armrests
are
flexible
but
lack
resistance,
making
them
prone
to
unexpected
shifting.
We
had
to
be
careful
not
to
lean
on
them
aggressively
during
testing.
Despite
its
sturdy
build,
the
chair’s
weight
makes
moving
difficult,
and
the
lack
of
softer
fabric
limits
all-day
comfort.
While
we
appreciate
using
recycled
materials,
the
rough
texture
might
only
suit
some.
Some
members
of
my
team
don’t
mind
it,
while
others
find
the
rough
material
uncomfortable.
Regarding
other
features,
the
seat
depth
and
tilt
adjustments
are
intuitive,
allowing
customization
based
on
body
type
and
preference.
One
of
my
team
members,
who
is
5
feet
6
inches
tall,
has
adjusted
the
backrest,
seat
depth,
armrests,
and
seat
height
to
fit
perfectly.
Initially,
the
chair
felt
firm
and
supportive,
perhaps
too
much
so.
However,
over
time,
it
has
softened
up.
Backforce
V
Plus:
Final
Verdict
The
Backforce
V
Plus
is
a
well-built,
comfortable,
and
eco-friendly
gaming
chair
with
strong
ergonomic
features
and
customizable
options.
However,
it
has
its
flaws:
some
buyers
may
be
put
off
by
the
challenging
assembly
process
and
high
price.
For
those
who
value
durability,
sustainability,
and
personalization,
it’s
a
worthy
investment.
If
you’re
looking
for
a
home
office
chair
suitable
for
gaming,
this
chair
is
a
good
option
for
your
home
workspace.
Additionally,
this
chair
could
be
an
excellent
fit
if
you
want
the
gamer
look.
However,
if
you’re
not
into
gaming
and
don’t
like
the
gamer
aesthetic,
there
may
be
a
better
chair
for
you.
