Just got mine a few weeks back, and I couldn't be happier! I really liked the video and felt fair, I thought it was hard for the first day or so, but it has since then softened up quite well! Super happy here at least!
Did you also get the HERO Series? Im about 181cm tall and looking for a chair where I can also put my leg on the chair sometimes :P Is the chairs sitting surface big and comfy enough?
Noblechairs just released a Hero with anthracite fabric cover, which I ordered immediatley as it was 30% off at my local store. I've had the Epic for over a year, and although I do love it, the bucketseat design pushes my shoulders forward when I lean back, which gives me an unoptimal posture. I'm also not a fan of leather/pu leather, so I'm really looking forward to try out the fabric Hero.
@@jstarproductions7335 Received it today, and I absolutely love it. A major upgrade from the Epic chair, and the fabric just feels so much better than the PU Leather, especially during these cold days.
There is a key difference between types of "PU Leather" that most people are unaware of. NobleChairs uses "Vegan PU" which theoretically should never peel since it is not made with any real leather. With "Bonded Leather" also called "PU Leather" that uses a thin layer of real leather - it is this thin layer of real leather which peels over time. SecretLabs uses real leather in their "PU leather" so it will definitely peel. When buying any chair I would recommend "Virgin PU" or Fabric.
Thank you so much for sharing, Imagina Brazil!! That indeed is new knowledge and info regarding both Secretlabs and NobleChairs which is super helpful ^^
Thanks, I'm trying to buy a NobleChairs Hero myself in Los Angeles, but impossible to find in the USA. NobleChairs doesn't ship directly to the USA and mentions Amazon, but there are no current listings for any NobleChairs on Amazon. I also contacted another 3rd party seller, but they have nothing in stock either.
Hi Gabriel Songco! Thank you very much for your feedback and God bless you too :) It has been almost 1 year and 7 months with this chair now and it is still holding up surprisingly well. Although recently I have temporarily switched to using another chair to review it for one of my upcoming videos, I honestly have to stay I still miss the noblechairs HERO every now and then. I still can't exactly pinpoint what I miss about it, but I'm guessing it's probably the firm support from the seat cushions >
You're Welcome Restfulrain, glad that my video could help you ^^ But since both your choices are excellent selections, you will be fine with either selection ^^
@@JAYJAY-ch4ik What makes you say that? literally every single comparison i've seen made by people who have owned both ALL say they prefer the noblechairs HERO over the Secretlab TITAN, which would indicate it's surely the superior chair, no?
hast du den stuhl gekauft? wenn ja, wie findest du den? werde mir demnächst auch mal einen gescheiten stuhl kaufen, aber bin mir immer noch unsicher, ob noblechairs hero oder backforce one (plus)...
Hi skrenja! Both are great chairs and either choice are great choices ^^ Tip: Choose the one that you can feel calling your name when you close your eyes 😝
I own one for two years now and I love it, I abuse that chair eight hours a day and still looks news, no wear can be seen. Just that that chair stands high but I'm six feet tall so ok for me.
Hi Christian! The AkRacing was also the same chair I was using before I got the Noblechair Hero >< It will take around 2 weeks to break-in to the chair for it to feel comfortable though, but after that it will feel awesome to sit in :)
@@GamersClinic have it some days no. i just can''t go back to my AKracing. my back is feeling much better again. it is just a bless. also i bought the noblechair footrest which i can't wait to get.
Hi llobell86! Sorry for the slow reply, but my wife is still using it until this very day. It's still holding up really well and no signs of cracks or peeling yet. Also, my favorite part is that there are no metal creaks or other sounds coming from the chair. Noblechairs nailed it on the build quality of their chairs ^^
@@GamersClinic I need a replacement of the tilt mechanisim... only after 4 weeks of use. Now that I had to spend my time awaiting it and mounting it (very challenging) I have again a silent chair. Hope will last this time.
lovely, just what i wanted to ask and what i needed to hear👌🏼 time to confirm purchase and subbing to this amazing channel. such an amazing reviewer, i saw the Razer iskur one and how you updated the description after 4 months to mention the peeling. definitely someone to trust and make “pricey decisions😂”based on you opinions👏🏼👏🏼
Hello ! I will try to formulate my question (I am French ^^"). I am a pretty tall guy (1m91), and I am kinda doubtful, because this chair seems a bit too small for me. Do you think that the Noblechair Hero can be appropriate for my size ?
Hi Yoshiaki! I am 1m87 and the tip of the top of the HERO is same height as my head when I sit in it. But just as a reference, I have measured for you the height from the inner-most seat to the tip of the chair, and it is 89 cm. So maybe you can ask a friend to help measure from your butt to head while seated to see if your head will exceed the height of the chair. Hope this can help you ^^
I'm struggling to pick... $400~$500 is a pretty big chair commitment. I'm strongly considering getting the Hero Fallout Edition, but I've also been considering one from SecretLab or Maxnomic. There are too many good choices.
Hi genericsmith88! Yes, these gaming chairs seem to be a bit slightly expensive. The brands you listed all have nice quality chairs. I think the choice will come down to which design and materials used you personally prefer more, and which one will be easier to claim for warranty if there happens to be a problem with your chair. Hope that helps ^^
The Fallout chair is stunning in real life. I am sat in mine which is 30 minutes built. :D Its a big roomy chair and I feel I could easily drift off before finishing...
@@angryscottishidiot I bought one, I'm glad I did... I am disappointed it didn't come with the free pillow though. It has improved my working from home live quite a bit.
Hi Gamer Buddy! I'm currently in the review process of a Secretlab Titan Evo 2022, so stay tuned for the full review ^^ (But to give you an idea, their build quality are both quite stellar and sturdy)
hey thanks for the review! im 160cm(5'2") would the hero fit me? i want to get this one as opposed to the epic coz of the lumbar support.but im just a lil bit worried that it might be too big for me?
Hi Dazz Mamaril! Similar to Taufiq's comment, you should be fine. My wife is 167cm (5'5")and she always take my chair to use it for her home office chair when I'm not at home, so I think you should be fine ^^
thanks for this really good review, i can't choose between the normal normal cheap Hero and the Hero Black Edition. The main aspect for the Black Edition is that they say you dont sweat after long hours of sitting, it wont get sticky and that the stuff is really comfortable. Because of that im wondering: Isnt the normal Hero also comfortable, does it get sticky and do you sweat in it after long hours of sitting?
Hi FURIIOUSS!! I haven't tried the Black Edition chairs for extended periods, but from what I read from other users feedback and Noblechairs' website, the Black Editions feature even more durable and comfortable covering. As for the normal edition, it is comfortable and the cold cured foam used is the same as the Black Edition to allow breathability so you don't sweat or feel uncomfortable being seated for extended periods. If the price difference is not too much, I would recommend getting the newer Black Editions as the increased durability promise would most likely let your chair last even longer ^^
received this hero chair today, however I encounterd a strange issue, seems my seat goes up to a maximum of 51.5 cm from the floor, maybe a faulty gas lift or a shorter one. On the website the range is from 48 up to 56 cm
Hi Alex G! May I ask, did you measure from the floor to the bottom of the seat or to the top tip of seat? Usually manufacturers will measure to the top tip of the front edge of the seat. I just went to measure mine again, and the max height is approx. 55.4 cms.
@@GamersClinic To the top tip of the seat, which is indeed the front edge of the seat. My only guess, is probably that my gas lift is shorter. I measured the big black cylinder from the star base (not including the part underneath the base which holds the chair) to the finish /start of the silver smaller cylinder and it's 5.5 cm height. Can you please confirm?
@@alexg2089 Ok, I just measured mine: at lowest setting it measures at 5.7 cms and highest extended length at 13.5 cms. Is your 5.5cm measurement at the max extended length?
@@GamersClinic ty for your reply, the shop exchanged today my short piston to a regular one, all it's fine now. I also hope the cushion gets a little softer haha, after a few hours I feel a mild pain.
@@alexg2089 Glad to hear that it was the piston and you got a new one ^^ As for the mild pain, it'll get better once you break-in to the new chair. It happened to my rear as well lol.
Hi dudedelicious! Both are good chairs for large build bodies (up to 150kg weight). I think you could choose based on which one you can get your hands on easier and which one is cheaper. Though if you prefer fabric cover, then only Secret Labs Titan has that option. Hope that helps ^^
would you prefer the razer isker pretty much new for 250 usd or used but in perfect shape hero for 300 usd , i live in switzerland therefore we have slightly different pricing. Thanks for your videos and KR
Hi BikerBros! If you normally sit with your back against the chair most of the time while gaming, then I would go for the Hero because of its greater durability and build quality. However, if you tend to sit at the edge of the chair, then the Iskur will provide a better back support to avoid back pains in the long run. Hope this helps ^^
Hi Ivan! After all this time, my unit still does not make any squeaky or annoying noises. Only a very slight sound of metal rubbing metal when turning, but it's only audible in a completely silent room with PC off. (Unlike the Secretlab Titan Evo 2022 that I'm currently reviewing...)
@@GamersClinic nice, thank you for the response after it has been such a long time you've posted that video. I am subbing, hopefully I am the 4000th one :) GG!
Hi ThanhHuy Le! Thank you very much for the feedback, and I'm glad you also like the Hero ^^ At this very moment, mine is still holding up well and I'm still loving it as well ^^
Hi Ferenc Pinter! I am 187 cm, so I think with your height, your head might rise a bit over the headrest by 2-3 cms, as when I sit, there is still around 2 cm of room above the top of my head. But as we are each unique, I am not too sure if your shoulders and head will be in the "right spot". Though as a reference, the back rest from the seat to the tip of the headrest is approximately 90cms high, so maybe you can ask someone to help measure the distance from your buttocks to tip of head while seated. Hope this helps^^
Hi! Both are great and really durable. If you want a softer seat, Secretlabs. If you want slightly more customization (such as changeable armrest, chair skin) then Secretlabs. Personally, I use both, so I guess it will come down to price and availability.
Thanks for a great review! Really helps. I was actually going for the Epic but I really want that extra lumbar support which i get on the Hero since I'm spending 8-9 hours while working from home. Question: I'm approx. 180cm tall and weigh around 75kg...I want to make sure I'm not "too small" for this chair. Any idea?
Hi Shams Kanani! Thank you for the feedback and I'm glad that this video was helpful for you. For your weight and height, I think you will be just fine and have plenty of space to sit in different postures on this chair. I'm 187cm and you can use that as a reference if that helps. If you want to see a far shot, you can check out this other video where I review the Razer Iskur and jump to 2:50 and 7:33 in that video with the following link: ruclips.net/video/_CgDbidL8E4/видео.html PS: The seat will initially be a little on the stiff side, but over time it will become softer and more comfortable, but not too soft that there's no more support ^^
@@shams.96 Depending on your table height, at the lowest setting on the Hero, it should not be a problem as the chair is pretty low, so your feet should be able to touch the floor. At 180cm, you should not have issues with the majority of gaming chairs ^^
Hi Yoshio P! Yes it held up pretty well, no cracks or broken seams even until today. I clean it weekly with a wet towel and some alcohol spray to remove body oils from the chair ^^
@@SayoshiNakamoto You are welcome ^^ Both are great chairs, so either choice will be a great choice. Tip: If you cannot decide, close your eyes and see which one calls your name louder, or which one pops up in your mind first :P
Awesome video! As you're using this chair for eight months now, let me ask you something: are you experiencing some kind of wobble in yours? I'm with mine for two weeks, and besides I'm pretty happy with its ergonomics and support, I can perceive some wobble at the point where the gaslift connects to the rocking mechanism, and would like to know if it's normal, as there isn't too much information about it on the web! Thanks in advance!
Thanks for the feedback! As for the wobble you are mentioning, I think it is not normal as my chair does not have the symptoms as you described. Was it like this since the day you assembled the chair? If so, could be the screws on the rocking mechanism and gas lift are not tight enough, or the gas lift is not fully connected into the base. I had to “dump” my weight to sit on the chair to make it connect properly. Worst case, it could be a defective gas lift or rocking mechanism, which if is the case then you schooled quickly claim warranty.
@@GamersClinic damn! I can't say for sure if the chair wobbles since I assembled it, or if it started shortly after! But certainly its well assembled (all the screws are tightly attached, just can't say for sure about the gaslift, but I had put it on the hole, finished assembling the chair and started to use it - I'm 105kg heavy). I've contacted Noblechairs, and they responded me that "Yes in this case it's normal, that the chair wobbles a little tiny bit in the gaslift". Asked some guys who bought the same chair here in Brazil about the same time, and they've stated they're feelin' a bit of that wobble too. This is mine wobbling: drive.google.com/file/d/1lcK3X8Bx_-9F27cNHoapqDTUTYRrOcEx/view?usp=drivesdk
@@Diogrus Hey again! I just saw the video and tried it out on mine. It wobbles the same as your video. I guess it is normal after all, lol. But good news is, i have not even noticed it until you pointed it out, nor has it caused any problems ^^ Very nice observation!
Hi Mark! No clicking sound on my unit when tilting. There is only some metal sounds when unlocking and locking the tilt unit and occasionally some noise when turning the chair while tilted.
Hi Dave Gibson! I managed to try mine in a store called Pezlato in Bangkok Fortune Town. For other brands like Akracing there is a store named Envisimple in Pantip Ngamongwan which you can try. Though if you are looking for Noblechairs, the Icon and Hero can support up to 150kgs, and for your height maybe Icon would be just right. As for the Epic, it can support up to 120kgs, so if you are into the bucket seat style, it would work for you too. Hope that helps ^^
i buyed a dxRacer chair, totally crap, was using it almost 1 year.... 1h ago i just finished building up the hero.... its a totally next level, so much better than the racer, so much! even the first minute.... sry bad englishg :p
Hi Dub Elements! You're English is perfectly fine for non-native speaker ^^ As for what you mentioned about a totally new level, I totally understand how you feel lol (except my case was coming from Akracing) ^^
Hi Christopher Beltran! Thanks for watching! The functions are basically the same, however the adjustment levels are slightly different. Hope that makes sense >
Sorry for confusing you. What I meant was that when I tried at the store, each turn/twist of the knob will increase the built in lumbar support differently. If I remember correctly, the Titan increases a little bit more per turn than noblechairs Hero. But the difference didn’t make much of a difference to me, and I chose Noblechairs because I prefer the PU leather cover over fabric cover ^^
Hi DrBlackRat! I haven't seen the actual one yet, but it should probably be just as good as the Secretlabs Titan. Though fabric chairs will be slightly more difficult to keep clean over time which is why I tend to stick to PU leather and leather covers :)
Hi KTZ! Thank you for the feedback ^^ For your height and weight, it should be fine because my wife is 167 50kgs and she says the chair is extra comfortable. And I also noticed that because of the extra seat space, she can sit in many different postures >
Unfortunately yes, PU leather are cheaper and easier to look after than genuine leather, but eventually will start to peel once it reaches the end of it's lifespan which is shorter than genuine leather (which also will peel after 10-15 years). If not exposed directly to sunlight, and they are cleaned regularly, they should last around 3-5 years at least. I believe the ones used on Noblechairs are of better resin quality, so it should last a bit longer than that under proper care. They even have the Black Edition which features even more durable PU leather covering.
Had an AK RACING "Player" chair for 3 years, the PU-leather is as good as new. Fantastic chair, but I've grew too wide for the seat cushion so the side bolsters pressed too much on my thighs. Don't worry about the PU-leather.
Whats it like now, mines is just out of warranty and has started to fall apart on the stitching on the base, seen a few other people with the same issue. How's yours?
Hi Ralph! Sorry to hear that, how bad is it? :( Mine is still holding up very well. My wife has been using it for her home office on a daily basis, and only the stitching are a little dirty, and the arm rests look a little worn. I do a weekly wipe down to remove body oils to help it last longer.
Hey ! Thx for this honest feedback ;-) Can you tell me the dimensions of the floor to the armrests and the floor to the seat please ? I have a new desk which is bigger than before, I am looking for a seat that can reach 70 cm and more at the armrests from the floor, my Vertagear SL2000 is not enough now, it's a good seat but even high to the max it does not reach the 70 cm and my new desk is 74 cm
I haven't used a chair from Secretlabs before, but judging from other users' feedback and seeing a lot of other RUclipsrs using the 2020 Titan, it is also a good chair, with the additional soft-weave fabric cover option. Initially the Titan was also on my to buy list, but due to it not being available on any retailers here, I got the Noblechairs Hero instead.
only thing that keeps me from ordering a secretlab chair is their poor reviews on customer service/ability to provide tracking information/fulfill orders a lot of negative reviews on that end and it makes me question them
@@katelovespizza There are a lot of good reviews on the chair and so I'm sure that the chair is great. It's just their support service that seems to be quite poor. It seems like they aren't super good at providing tracking information and their orders can get lost at times for over a month and dealing with customer service during that period is apparently a nightmare. Idk I would just prefer ordering from a company that gives me confidence on delivery lol
Any opinions between hero and icon? want to get one but it's so hard to buy during the lockdown currently much less go try them out. I'm just 163cm who sits for upto 12hrs due to work/gaming.
Hi Bon Bon! With your height, both chairs would fit you comfortably, although the Icon would be a better fit. Though if you have wide shoulders, then the Hero will be able to provide more support for your shoulders when you lean back on the chair ^^
Hi Lee Anthonie Chung! I am also living in South East Asia at the moment, and it's hot all year round lol. If I may recommend, for PU leather, keep it away from direct sunlight and clean off any oils and dirt regularly and it should last longer. Mine is still holding up really well after almost a year and a half now, so hope that helps ^^
Hi Frischkässe! The wings on the chairs are quite flat and wide compared to their Epic product line, so it should not be an issue. If your shoulders do extend over the wings, then it might cause a little discomfort when you lean back into the back of the chair. Hope that helps. ^^
Good review. I have owned it for 30 days now (Hero real leather version) and it is still very hard. Can you express in percentage how much it has softened? After 8 months?
Thank you JordyMK5. In terms of percentage I’m estimating around 15-20% softer. Maybe less as there’s the possibility that my buttocks got used to it. It’s still more firm compared to my previous chair, but overall comfort level is a lot better now.
@@SmithyM3 Thank you! Hope you will love your new chair when you get it as well. *ps: If you're coming from a soft chair, just remember to sit gently when it's still brand new, hehe >
@jordyy, How is the real leather holding up? I am debating between Hero's Real Leather, or Titans Nappa Leather. I do not desire PU Leather. It is my understanding that Nappa leather is a more luxury and softer leather than basic Real Leather.
@@razorbacks9034 I have had it since March 24, but it is still like new. I sit on it for about 8 to 10 hours a day. Treat once a month with Gliptone Leather Cleaner and Conditioner. The leather is still very beautiful and tight.
Hi Jin Chin! With your height and weight, both chairs should be fine. However, the Hero has a wider backrest at the shoulder area compared to the Icon, so if you lean back on your chair a lot (when watching videos/movies), then the Hero will probably be more comfortable as it will support your shoulders when you do. Hope this helps ^^
@@GamersClinic One further question: Can you elaborate on the minimum height of the model hero with the standard gas cylinder as I've seen many reviews saying that with a height of 1,75-1,90m the needed to replace the normal gas cylinder with the short or even extra short one on order to be able to adjust the seat height to their leg lengths and be able to put their feet on the ground when sitting upright.
@@markrohde42 Hi markrohde42! With stock gas cylinder, the height from ground to the top edge of the seat part of the chair, it is 410mm (16-16.5 inches). Though this measurement is after a year using this chair, so I am not sure if the edge cushion has flattened a bit over time, but it shouldn't be much difference from a brand new one. Hope this helps ^^
Hey, do you had any other issues with this chair? And if you had, has the customer service quickly helped? I ordered just a hero black edition - just worried because you read everywhere that something gets broken over time or doesn’t work properly after a short amount of time. Thanks for you’re video anyway!
Hi Philipp, you are welcome! So far I haven’t had any issues with this chair. The only time I had issues, was with cheap knockoff brands that are at ~$100 price range (My first gaming chair and chairs used in gaming cafes). My second chair Akracing lasted 4 years before the PU leather peeled and flaked all over the floor. The black edition is even more improved than the standard edition with even more durable PU Leather, so I think your chair should serve you well for at least 3-5 years if u take good care of it.
I personally prefer slightly stiffer due to my weight being almost 198lbs (90kgs) and require stiffer chairs to deliver proper support for my back. Your noble will most likely be quite stiff when it first arrive, but after a few months it will become softer. As for which is better, I think it depends on each peron’s personal preference and body type/structure ^^
The best chairs in regards to comfort, are still those that are labeled "Office Chair". The type of chair that the clip shows is among those "look alike racer car chair" mockup, which is their selling pitch rather than comfort (if not for a lie).
Hi HawkFest RoG! Thanks for your input, you do have a very valid point. In one of my other videos, I also talk about "gaming chairs" vs "office chairs" and office chairs do offer more customizability which properly supports your sitting posture better than gaming chairs. ^^
Secret labs chairs degrade fast shortly after warranty period is over, planned obsolescence? If you are happy with a cool picture on a chair that will fall apart (horrible quality) then go for it. Time will tell, do the math, every PC/gamer buys a chair every 2 to 4 years. That's great profit for the chair company as customer keeps coming back 3 times every 10 years wow. Nothing to see here, just shut your eyes and buy lol. (Ima try the Noble. and keep that warranty card ready with receipt!!! :P ) Plus all those materials wasted from being used on all the chairs, made over and over just to keep the "Chair subscription" going,.. Why not just make them leasable? Be upfront about it and pay as you sit lmao
Honestly, I'm not sure, but I think as long as the weight is within 330lbs (150kgs) and the person and sit on it comfortably, then it shouldn't be a problem.
@@voqzmk2 I don't own the Epic, but from when I tried sitting in it before purchasing, the Epic are more of a "tight-fit" like a bucketseat in a race car. So I think it might be harder to sit in for long periods for a large person.
I approve and I am fat. Fat enough to have destroyed my $100 amazon chair in 2 years. This chair doesnt even let out a sigh when I sit on it. My last chair screamed, cried a lot and then died. :(
It is garbage, before 2 years the synthetic leather started to crack and the company didn't want to apply the warranty, I had a similar case with a Sharkoon chair, although they applied the warranty claim. I am very dissatisfied with this kind of chairs mainly with this brand.
I don't care how "high quality" they are. PU leather is PU leather and its garbage. Fabric chairs are way better. these chairs are over 400 dollars and they use this garbage material that u get with a 130 dollar Dx racer Knockoff.
Hi Bob The builder! Honestly, I have to agree with you here regarding the PU leather. (If only real leather was more affordable), but when you have a kid that loves to hijack your chair and eat in it, PU leather does come with one convenience of being easy to clean when they spill stuff over it lol. ^^
Just got mine a few weeks back, and I couldn't be happier! I really liked the video and felt fair, I thought it was hard for the first day or so, but it has since then softened up quite well! Super happy here at least!
Happy to hear that you are also enjoying your Noblechair! And thank you for your comment ^^

Noblechairs just released a Hero with anthracite fabric cover, which I ordered immediatley as it was 30% off at my local store.

Nice one, still tossing up between Hero and Epic, guess the lumbar support is worth it especially since I am not a gamer.
There is a key difference between types of "PU Leather" that most people are unaware of. NobleChairs uses "Vegan PU" which theoretically should never peel since it is not made with any real leather.
With "Bonded Leather" also called "PU Leather" that uses a thin layer of real leather - it is this thin layer of real leather which peels over time. SecretLabs uses real leather in their "PU leather" so it will definitely peel.

Own an aknracing but it started hurting my back. Cant wait to get this noble chair
Hi Christian! The AkRacing was also the same chair I was using before I got the Noblechair Hero >< It will take around 2 weeks to break-in to the chair for it to feel comfortable though, but after that it will feel awesome to sit in :)
@@GamersClinic have it some days no. i just can''t go back to my AKracing. my back is feeling much better again. it is just a bless. also i bought the noblechair footrest which i can't wait to get.
@@csch92 Glad to hear that you can now game without that annoying (but inevitable) gamer's back pain. ^^
@@GamersClinic haha i even forgot to stand up to stratch out my body which i had to do quite often with my old chair, noe sure how healty that is 🤣
@@csch92 😆Should still stand up and stretch a bit before it starts to hurt again. You can sit longer, but eventually the problem will still be back >
Very informative...many thanks!
Hi K G! Thank you for the feedback ^^
Nice review!
Would love to know your 2 years later opinion :)
Hi llobell86! Sorry for the slow reply, but my wife is still using it until this very day. It's still holding up really well and no signs of cracks or peeling yet. Also, my favorite part is that there are no metal creaks or other sounds coming from the chair. Noblechairs nailed it on the build quality of their chairs ^^
@@GamersClinic I need a replacement of the tilt mechanisim... only after 4 weeks of use. Now that I had to spend my time awaiting it and mounting it (very challenging) I have again a silent chair. Hope will last this time.
lovely, just what i wanted to ask and what i needed to hear👌🏼 time to confirm purchase and subbing to this amazing channel. such an amazing reviewer, i saw the Razer iskur one and how you updated the description after 4 months to mention the peeling. definitely someone to trust and make “pricey decisions😂”based on you opinions👏🏼👏🏼
Hello !
I will try to formulate my question (I am French ^^").
I am a pretty tall guy (1m91), and I am kinda doubtful, because this chair seems a bit too small for me. Do you think that the Noblechair Hero can be appropriate for my size ?
Hi Yoshiaki! I am 1m87 and the tip of the top of the HERO is same height as my head when I sit in it.
But just as a reference, I have measured for you the height from the inner-most seat to the tip of the chair, and it is 89 cm. So maybe you can ask a friend to help measure from your butt to head while seated to see if your head will exceed the height of the chair. Hope this can help you ^^
@@GamersClinic Okay ! Perfect ! Thank you very much ! :D
@@Yoshiaki_Yoshi You are welcome! Glad I could help you ^^
I'm struggling to pick... $400~$500 is a pretty big chair commitment. I'm strongly considering getting the Hero Fallout Edition, but I've also been considering one from SecretLab or Maxnomic. There are too many good choices.
Hi genericsmith88! Yes, these gaming chairs seem to be a bit slightly expensive. The brands you listed all have nice quality chairs. I think the choice will come down to which design and materials used you personally prefer more, and which one will be easier to claim for warranty if there happens to be a problem with your chair. Hope that helps ^^
The Fallout chair is stunning in real life. I am sat in mine which is 30 minutes built. :D Its a big roomy chair and I feel I could easily drift off before finishing...
@@angryscottishidiot I bought one, I'm glad I did... I am disappointed it didn't come with the free pillow though. It has improved my working from home live quite a bit.
how is the quality of noblechairs compared to Secretlab chairs?
Hi Gamer Buddy! I'm currently in the review process of a Secretlab Titan Evo 2022, so stay tuned for the full review ^^ (But to give you an idea, their build quality are both quite stellar and sturdy)
I’m stuck between Chairs. SECRET LAB TITAN XL OR A NOBLE
hey thanks for the review! im 160cm(5'2") would the hero fit me? i want to get this one as opposed to the epic coz of the lumbar support.but im just a lil bit worried that it might be too big for me?
I think because the shape of the chair is mostly flat (vs other models), you will be okay
Hi Dazz Mamaril! Similar to Taufiq's comment, you should be fine. My wife is 167cm (5'5")and she always take my chair to use it for her home office chair when I'm not at home, so I think you should be fine ^^
@@students4life821 thanks for the reply!
@@GamersClinic thanks for that! i actually ended up ordering the epic in the end :)
@@dazzm.5873 You are welcome :) Glad that I could be of help ^^
thanks for this really good review, i can't choose between the normal normal cheap Hero and the Hero Black Edition. The main aspect for the Black Edition is that they say you dont sweat after long hours of sitting, it wont get sticky and that the stuff is really comfortable. Because of that im wondering: Isnt the normal Hero also comfortable, does it get sticky and do you sweat in it after long hours of sitting?
Hi FURIIOUSS!! I haven't tried the Black Edition chairs for extended periods, but from what I read from other users feedback and Noblechairs' website, the Black Editions feature even more durable and comfortable covering. As for the normal edition, it is comfortable and the cold cured foam used is the same as the Black Edition to allow breathability so you don't sweat or feel uncomfortable being seated for extended periods. If the price difference is not too much, I would recommend getting the newer Black Editions as the increased durability promise would most likely let your chair last even longer ^^
received this hero chair today, however I encounterd a strange issue, seems my seat goes up to a maximum of 51.5 cm from the floor, maybe a faulty gas lift or a shorter one. On the website the range is from 48 up to 56 cm
Hi Alex G! May I ask, did you measure from the floor to the bottom of the seat or to the top tip of seat? Usually manufacturers will measure to the top tip of the front edge of the seat. I just went to measure mine again, and the max height is approx. 55.4 cms.
@@GamersClinic To the top tip of the seat, which is indeed the front edge of the seat. My only guess, is probably that my gas lift is shorter. I measured the big black cylinder from the star base (not including the part underneath the base which holds the chair) to the finish /start of the silver smaller cylinder and it's 5.5 cm height. Can you please confirm?
@@alexg2089 Ok, I just measured mine: at lowest setting it measures at 5.7 cms and highest extended length at 13.5 cms. Is your 5.5cm measurement at the max extended length?
@@GamersClinic ty for your reply, the shop exchanged today my short piston to a regular one, all it's fine now. I also hope the cushion gets a little softer haha, after a few hours I feel a mild pain.
@@alexg2089 Glad to hear that it was the piston and you got a new one ^^ As for the mild pain, it'll get better once you break-in to the new chair. It happened to my rear as well lol.
Nice, thank you. I do not know which one to choose, noble's hero or secret labs titan?
Hi dudedelicious! Both are good chairs for large build bodies (up to 150kg weight). I think you could choose based on which one you can get your hands on easier and which one is cheaper. Though if you prefer fabric cover, then only Secret Labs Titan has that option. Hope that helps ^^
would you prefer the razer isker pretty much new for 250 usd or used but in perfect shape hero for 300 usd , i live in switzerland therefore we have slightly different pricing. Thanks for your videos and KR
Hi BikerBros! If you normally sit with your back against the chair most of the time while gaming, then I would go for the Hero because of its greater durability and build quality. However, if you tend to sit at the edge of the chair, then the Iskur will provide a better back support to avoid back pains in the long run. Hope this helps ^^
Is it squeaking or making any noises when moving/leaning back?
Hi Ivan! After all this time, my unit still does not make any squeaky or annoying noises. Only a very slight sound of metal rubbing metal when turning, but it's only audible in a completely silent room with PC off. (Unlike the Secretlab Titan Evo 2022 that I'm currently reviewing...)
@@GamersClinic nice, thank you for the response after it has been such a long time you've posted that video. I am subbing, hopefully I am the 4000th one :) GG!

Nice review, i just buy one and really like it 👍👍👍
Hi ThanhHuy Le! Thank you very much for the feedback, and I'm glad you also like the Hero ^^ At this very moment, mine is still holding up well and I'm still loving it as well ^^
How its holding up ?
Thanks really helpful and detailed review.
Hi Caleb Marchent! You're welcome ^^ I'm glad that you find this video helpful and hopefully it could help you choose the right chair for you :D
hi! i am 192 cm tall. Do you think it will be uncomfortable for me? there is no chance to send back if i buy it. thanks
Hi Ferenc Pinter! I am 187 cm, so I think with your height, your head might rise a bit over the headrest by 2-3 cms, as when I sit, there is still around 2 cm of room above the top of my head. But as we are each unique, I am not too sure if your shoulders and head will be in the "right spot".
Though as a reference, the back rest from the seat to the tip of the headrest is approximately 90cms high, so maybe you can ask someone to help measure the distance from your buttocks to tip of head while seated. Hope this helps^^
Hello, which one you would pick up, Noble or Secret Lab?
Thanks in advance :)
Hi! Both are great and really durable.
If you want a softer seat, Secretlabs. If you want slightly more customization (such as changeable armrest, chair skin) then Secretlabs. Personally, I use both, so I guess it will come down to price and availability.
Thanks for a great review! Really helps. I was actually going for the Epic but I really want that extra lumbar support which i get on the Hero since I'm spending 8-9 hours while working from home.
Question: I'm approx. 180cm tall and weigh around 75kg...I want to make sure I'm not "too small" for this chair. Any idea?
Hi Shams Kanani! Thank you for the feedback and I'm glad that this video was helpful for you.
For your weight and height, I think you will be just fine and have plenty of space to sit in different postures on this chair. I'm 187cm and you can use that as a reference if that helps. If you want to see a far shot, you can check out this other video where I review the Razer Iskur and jump to 2:50 and 7:33 in that video with the following link:
ruclips.net/video/_CgDbidL8E4/видео.html
PS: The seat will initially be a little on the stiff side, but over time it will become softer and more comfortable, but not too soft that there's no more support ^^
@@GamersClinic Sounds great! What about the height? I mean according to my height, will I be able to reach the floor with my feet?
@@shams.96 Depending on your table height, at the lowest setting on the Hero, it should not be a problem as the chair is pretty low, so your feet should be able to touch the floor. At 180cm, you should not have issues with the majority of gaming chairs ^^
Do the leather held up with weather in Thailand?
Hi Yoshio P! Yes it held up pretty well, no cracks or broken seams even until today. I clean it weekly with a wet towel and some alcohol spray to remove body oils from the chair ^^
@@GamersClinic Thanks for answer. I'm considering Noblechairs Hero and Secretlab Titan.
@@SayoshiNakamoto You are welcome ^^ Both are great chairs, so either choice will be a great choice.
Tip: If you cannot decide, close your eyes and see which one calls your name louder, or which one pops up in your mind first :P
nice vid! question! is it possible to lock the seat tilt in whatever position you want? flat, half tilt, full tilt?
Hi Adrian K! Thank you ^^ As for locking the seat tilt, you could lock it in any degree of tilt you want :)
Awesome video! As you're using this chair for eight months now, let me ask you something: are you experiencing some kind of wobble in yours? I'm with mine for two weeks, and besides I'm pretty happy with its ergonomics and support, I can perceive some wobble at the point where the gaslift connects to the rocking mechanism, and would like to know if it's normal, as there isn't too much information about it on the web! Thanks in advance!
Thanks for the feedback! As for the wobble you are mentioning, I think it is not normal as my chair does not have the symptoms as you described. Was it like this since the day you assembled the chair? If so, could be the screws on the rocking mechanism and gas lift are not tight enough, or the gas lift is not fully connected into the base. I had to “dump” my weight to sit on the chair to make it connect properly. Worst case, it could be a defective gas lift or rocking mechanism, which if is the case then you schooled quickly claim warranty.
@@GamersClinic damn! I can't say for sure if the chair wobbles since I assembled it, or if it started shortly after! But certainly its well assembled (all the screws are tightly attached, just can't say for sure about the gaslift, but I had put it on the hole, finished assembling the chair and started to use it - I'm 105kg heavy). I've contacted Noblechairs, and they responded me that "Yes in this case it's normal, that the chair wobbles a little tiny bit in the gaslift". Asked some guys who bought the same chair here in Brazil about the same time, and they've stated they're feelin' a bit of that wobble too. This is mine wobbling: drive.google.com/file/d/1lcK3X8Bx_-9F27cNHoapqDTUTYRrOcEx/view?usp=drivesdk
@@Diogrus Hey again! I just saw the video and tried it out on mine. It wobbles the same as your video. I guess it is normal after all, lol. But good news is, i have not even noticed it until you pointed it out, nor has it caused any problems ^^ Very nice observation!
@@GamersClinic well! I must say that I'm way more reliefed now! Thanks!
@@Diogrus It's normal, IKEA Markus does the same lol.
There is a clicking sound when using the tilt ? How about you ?
Hi Mark! No clicking sound on my unit when tilting. There is only some metal sounds when unlocking and locking the tilt unit and occasionally some noise when turning the chair while tilted.
That chair still alive?
Hi HEKPOMAHT! Yes, mine is still alive and in one piece. My wife has taken it for daily use at her home office now.😆
@@GamersClinic Thanks
What store did you try the chairs in? I live in Pattaya, I think this chair maybe a bit big for me at 167 cm but I need the high weight capacity.
Hi Dave Gibson! I managed to try mine in a store called Pezlato in Bangkok Fortune Town. For other brands like Akracing there is a store named Envisimple in Pantip Ngamongwan which you can try. Though if you are looking for Noblechairs, the Icon and Hero can support up to 150kgs, and for your height maybe Icon would be just right. As for the Epic, it can support up to 120kgs, so if you are into the bucket seat style, it would work for you too. Hope that helps ^^
@@GamersClinic Thanks for the reply
i buyed a dxRacer chair, totally crap, was using it almost 1 year.... 1h ago i just finished building up the hero.... its a totally next level, so much better than the racer, so much! even the first minute....
sry bad englishg :p
Hi Dub Elements! You're English is perfectly fine for non-native speaker ^^ As for what you mentioned about a totally new level, I totally understand how you feel lol (except my case was coming from Akracing) ^^
Is the lumbar nob thing the exact same as the secret lab titan
Hi Christopher Beltran! Thanks for watching! The functions are basically the same, however the adjustment levels are slightly different. Hope that makes sense >
@@GamersClinic Do you mean that one of them can have a bigger lumbar hump than the other or they are not at the same height
Sorry for confusing you. What I meant was that when I tried at the store, each turn/twist of the knob will increase the built in lumbar support differently. If I remember correctly, the Titan increases a little bit more per turn than noblechairs Hero. But the difference didn’t make much of a difference to me, and I chose Noblechairs because I prefer the PU leather cover over fabric cover ^^
Gamers' Clinic oh okay thank you so much for the information
What do you think of the new TX Seires with fabric instead of leather?
Hi DrBlackRat! I haven't seen the actual one yet, but it should probably be just as good as the Secretlabs Titan. Though fabric chairs will be slightly more difficult to keep clean over time which is why I tend to stick to PU leather and leather covers :)
Hey man, really good review! I am 168 and around 55kg. I am looking at this chair but i am worried i might be to small for it. Any thoughts?
Hi KTZ! Thank you for the feedback ^^ For your height and weight, it should be fine because my wife is 167 50kgs and she says the chair is extra comfortable. And I also noticed that because of the extra seat space, she can sit in many different postures >
Hi KTZ, I'm about the same height as you. Did you end up getting the Hero and did you find the chair suitable?
@@toltec247 i did, and i find it really good. sitting on it rn!
Being PU Leather, will these peel after a few years?
Unfortunately yes, PU leather are cheaper and easier to look after than genuine leather, but eventually will start to peel once it reaches the end of it's lifespan which is shorter than genuine leather (which also will peel after 10-15 years). If not exposed directly to sunlight, and they are cleaned regularly, they should last around 3-5 years at least. I believe the ones used on Noblechairs are of better resin quality, so it should last a bit longer than that under proper care. They even have the Black Edition which features even more durable PU leather covering.
Had my epik series for 3 years. No wear or tear
Had an AK RACING "Player" chair for 3 years, the PU-leather is as good as new. Fantastic chair, but I've grew too wide for the seat cushion so the side bolsters pressed too much on my thighs. Don't worry about the PU-leather.
Get Andachair they use PVC ive been using it for 2 yrs and they are Tank
Whats it like now, mines is just out of warranty and has started to fall apart on the stitching on the base, seen a few other people with the same issue. How's yours?
Hi Ralph! Sorry to hear that, how bad is it? :(
Mine is still holding up very well. My wife has been using it for her home office on a daily basis, and only the stitching are a little dirty, and the arm rests look a little worn. I do a weekly wipe down to remove body oils to help it last longer.
Hey ! Thx for this honest feedback ;-) Can you tell me the dimensions of the floor to the armrests and the floor to the seat please ? I have a new desk which is bigger than before, I am looking for a seat that can reach 70 cm and more at the armrests from the floor, my Vertagear SL2000 is not enough now, it's a good seat but even high to the max it does not reach the 70 cm and my new desk is 74 cm
noblechairs hero or epic i sit 10hours a day and im 178cm help me choose
what do you think of the secretlab titan 2020 ?
I haven't used a chair from Secretlabs before, but judging from other users' feedback and seeing a lot of other RUclipsrs using the 2020 Titan, it is also a good chair, with the additional soft-weave fabric cover option. Initially the Titan was also on my to buy list, but due to it not being available on any retailers here, I got the Noblechairs Hero instead.
Nice Vid Dude
Thanks! I'm glad that you enjoyed it ^^
i’m torn between this and the Secretlab Omega, what do you think?
only thing that keeps me from ordering a secretlab chair is their poor reviews on customer service/ability to provide tracking information/fulfill orders
a lot of negative reviews on that end and it makes me question them
@@wyatt5167 :/ i’ve seen a lot of good reviews but maybe they’re fabricated
@@katelovespizza There are a lot of good reviews on the chair and so I'm sure that the chair is great. It's just their support service that seems to be quite poor. It seems like they aren't super good at providing tracking information and their orders can get lost at times for over a month and dealing with customer service during that period is apparently a nightmare.
Idk I would just prefer ordering from a company that gives me confidence on delivery lol
@@wyatt5167 oh damn, sorry totally missed your point there. The one I want to order is in stock so *fingers crossed* we have no mishaps
Any opinions between hero and icon? want to get one but it's so hard to buy during the lockdown currently much less go try them out. I'm just 163cm who sits for upto 12hrs due to work/gaming.
Hi Bon Bon! With your height, both chairs would fit you comfortably, although the Icon would be a better fit. Though if you have wide shoulders, then the Hero will be able to provide more support for your shoulders when you lean back on the chair ^^
I see you almost laugh during recording
Where you from sir? because I am from the Philippines it is hot in here I want to know if the PU leather will peel and crack in hot climate country.
Hi Lee Anthonie Chung! I am also living in South East Asia at the moment, and it's hot all year round lol. If I may recommend, for PU leather, keep it away from direct sunlight and clean off any oils and dirt regularly and it should last longer. Mine is still holding up really well after almost a year and a half now, so hope that helps ^^
@@GamersClinic Thank you so much.
May i ask how long you are, as i’m not sure if it’s too long for me?
Hi PSV Eindhoven_040! My height is 187cm (1.87m or 6foot 2inches). Hope that helps :)
@@GamersClinic thanks, might have to go for the epic then as i'm nowhere near 187
will i have problems with my shoulders and the wings of the chair because im a little fat and naturally built big
Hi Frischkässe! The wings on the chairs are quite flat and wide compared to their Epic product line, so it should not be an issue. If your shoulders do extend over the wings, then it might cause a little discomfort when you lean back into the back of the chair. Hope that helps. ^^
@@GamersClinic okay thanks
how tall are you? I'm looking to buy icon or hero
Hi Socrates! I’m 6’2” or 187cm. Both would fit, but the Hero will have a wider backrest for more relaxed sitting postures.
Features not found in other gaming chairs? they all share the same mechanisms for 20 years...
Good review. I have owned it for 30 days now (Hero real leather version) and it is still very hard. Can you express in percentage how much it has softened? After 8 months?
Thank you JordyMK5. In terms of percentage I’m estimating around 15-20% softer. Maybe less as there’s the possibility that my buttocks got used to it. It’s still more firm compared to my previous chair, but overall comfort level is a lot better now.
Great follow up review. This has sealed the deal for me, literally going to order one of these chairs now.
@@SmithyM3 Thank you! Hope you will love your new chair when you get it as well.
*ps: If you're coming from a soft chair, just remember to sit gently when it's still brand new, hehe >
@jordyy, How is the real leather holding up? I am debating between Hero's Real Leather, or Titans Nappa Leather. I do not desire PU Leather. It is my understanding that Nappa leather is a more luxury and softer leather than basic Real Leather.
@@razorbacks9034 I have had it since March 24, but it is still like new. I sit on it for about 8 to 10 hours a day.
Treat once a month with Gliptone Leather Cleaner and Conditioner.
The leather is still very beautiful and tight.
Hi great review. I’m about 1.75, 60kg. Do you think I should get the hero or icon? Thanks
Hi Jin Chin! With your height and weight, both chairs should be fine. However, the Hero has a wider backrest at the shoulder area compared to the Icon, so if you lean back on your chair a lot (when watching videos/movies), then the Hero will probably be more comfortable as it will support your shoulders when you do. Hope this helps ^^
@@GamersClinic One further question: Can you elaborate on the minimum height of the model hero with the standard gas cylinder as I've seen many reviews saying that with a height of 1,75-1,90m the needed to replace the normal gas cylinder with the short or even extra short one on order to be able to adjust the seat height to their leg lengths and be able to put their feet on the ground when sitting upright.
@@markrohde42 Hi markrohde42! With stock gas cylinder, the height from ground to the top edge of the seat part of the chair, it is 410mm (16-16.5 inches). Though this measurement is after a year using this chair, so I am not sure if the edge cushion has flattened a bit over time, but it shouldn't be much difference from a brand new one. Hope this helps ^^
How tall are you? Trying to gauge how I'd fit
Hi Milo! I'm 6"1 (187 cms), so maybe this will help give you an estimate ^^
Hey, do you had any other issues with this chair? And if you had, has the customer service quickly helped?
I ordered just a hero black edition - just worried because you read everywhere that something gets broken over time or doesn’t work properly after a short amount of time.
Thanks for you’re video anyway!
Hi Philipp, you are welcome! So far I haven’t had any issues with this chair. The only time I had issues, was with cheap knockoff brands that are at ~$100 price range (My first gaming chair and chairs used in gaming cafes). My second chair Akracing lasted 4 years before the PU leather peeled and flaked all over the floor. The black edition is even more improved than the standard edition with even more durable PU Leather, so I think your chair should serve you well for at least 3-5 years if u take good care of it.
Gamers' Clinic ok - thank you so much! Do you think it’s better to have a very firm and stiff chair like noble or a softer chair like titan?
I personally prefer slightly stiffer due to my weight being almost 198lbs (90kgs) and require stiffer chairs to deliver proper support for my back. Your noble will most likely be quite stiff when it first arrive, but after a few months it will become softer. As for which is better, I think it depends on each peron’s personal preference and body type/structure ^^
@@GamersClinic how its holding up after 2 years ?
Never buy fake leather version, just buy fabric or real leather. Fake leather just isnt durable long term.
Wish i had one
Hi, do you know if it fits for a person 193cm (6,3 feet)?
Hi Vaimex! I’m 190cm and it fits fine, so I’m guessing the extra 3cms will not be too much of a difference ^^
Did you laugh at 1:42? 🤣
Hi Graham Stephens! LOL yeah I did, if memory serves me correctly, I think my daughter was making funny faces behind the camera imitating me. lol
@@GamersClinic brilliant!
It this chair better than the Akracing Onyx office series
The best chairs in regards to comfort, are still those that are labeled "Office Chair". The type of chair that the clip shows is among those "look alike racer car chair" mockup, which is their selling pitch rather than comfort (if not for a lie).
Hi HawkFest RoG! Thanks for your input, you do have a very valid point. In one of my other videos, I also talk about "gaming chairs" vs "office chairs" and office chairs do offer more customizability which properly supports your sitting posture better than gaming chairs. ^^
@@GamersClinic Oh good, I'll keep an eye for it, subscribed thx.
Secret labs chairs degrade fast shortly after warranty period is over, planned obsolescence? If you are happy with a cool picture on a chair that will fall apart (horrible quality) then go for it. Time will tell, do the math, every PC/gamer buys a chair every 2 to 4 years. That's great profit for the chair company as customer keeps coming back 3 times every 10 years wow. Nothing to see here, just shut your eyes and buy lol. (Ima try the Noble. and keep that warranty card ready with receipt!!! :P ) Plus all those materials wasted from being used on all the chairs, made over and over just to keep the "Chair subscription" going,.. Why not just make them leasable? Be upfront about it and pay as you sit lmao
It will peel after 1 year as long as it is PU Leather made..
nope, 2 years into it, no peels yet
is it fat dude approved?
Honestly, I'm not sure, but I think as long as the weight is within 330lbs (150kgs) and the person and sit on it comfortably, then it shouldn't be a problem.
@@GamersClinic How about the Noblechairs Epic? Are the side "walls" of the chair high and hard?
@@voqzmk2 I don't own the Epic, but from when I tried sitting in it before purchasing, the Epic are more of a "tight-fit" like a bucketseat in a race car. So I think it might be harder to sit in for long periods for a large person.
@@GamersClinic Alright thanks for the answer, going to get the Hero then.
I approve and I am fat. Fat enough to have destroyed my $100 amazon chair in 2 years. This chair doesnt even let out a sigh when I sit on it. My last chair screamed, cried a lot and then died. :(
It is garbage, before 2 years the synthetic leather started to crack and the company didn't want to apply the warranty, I had a similar case with a Sharkoon chair, although they applied the warranty claim. I am very dissatisfied with this kind of chairs mainly with this brand.
Synthetic leather sucks.
The '4d'-adjustable armrests look like hard plastic trash...
no
I don't care how "high quality" they are. PU leather is PU leather and its garbage. Fabric chairs are way better. these chairs are over 400 dollars and they use this garbage material that u get with a 130 dollar Dx racer Knockoff.
Hi Bob The builder! Honestly, I have to agree with you here regarding the PU leather. (If only real leather was more affordable), but when you have a kid that loves to hijack your chair and eat in it, PU leather does come with one convenience of being easy to clean when they spill stuff over it lol. ^^
I agree, that's why I brought the real leather hero lol
Don’t buy this trash. Mine fell apart before 2 years and it has no ergonomics. Get a Herman Miller.
