I just bought this chair and its worth every penny just for that lumber support alone. It makes a world of difference on your lower back as it contours it perfectly. If it didn't have that feature, I would have passed because it wouldn't have anything different compared to the rest of the gaming chairs on the market. Luckily, I was able to test this out first as it was on display at a local computer store, and bought it right there. I agree with what he says regarding how the thigh supports digs into your thighs as Im 6'0, 230lbs, but, this is easily remedied. I put my hands on each thigh support while sitting, lifted myself off the chair, and then hopped up/down on the thigh supports to bend them outward so they weren't pressing against my thighs so much. After I did this, it spread them out far enough where they weren't digging into my thighs so much. So if your on the bigger side, you can do this and give yourself a little more room as it seems the metal in them is pretty robust. All in all, awesome chair.
@@elqueso5301 After 5 months of owning this, I would say definitely. I work at home at my computer desk all day and for the most part, I used to have slight back issues myself from sitting long periods of time on my old chair. But now, my back seems to not bother me at all surprisingly. Is it going to cure your back pain? I don't know, but I can say for sure that it helps the lower back with the lumbar support. Its a steep price to swallow for a chair but its worth it.
@@AJ-wx3zt yeah just order it to Game and watch movies im a controller player iike to have straight poster my old chair rgrx the pillow support was uncomfortable do u know if the iskur chair the lubar support dosent fell uncomfortable and fells comfortable while gaming? Thanks dude
I've gone through so many damn chairs. From gaming chairs to office chairs, to 2 different expensive desk, and this chair seems exactly what I've been looking for. I'm gonna get this and give it a try, at this point can't hurt. Great review bud.
Dude this the best review I had of this chair. I was going back and forth for 2 weeks now watching a dozen reviews. You did a really grreat job explainning in detail in lamen terms and you were very honest about the pricing and is this for your. I subscribed!
Bought the xl fabric version, it was delivered yesterday. The box is massive, looking forward to assembling it and using it over my current mesh back chair. Thanks for the great review!
Thank you!! The wings are killing me!! Its like it's pressing into my thighs. It does have a premium build though. I catch myself just staring at how great it looks. Just wish the seat was a bit wider. Now I'm motivated to go work out to fit my chair better LOL. You are also right about the chair making me want to sit more upright. Is razer forcing healthier practices?? :-D
Guys, just bought this chair a week ago. Yea the $500 is a bit steep I believe, the lumbar support itself is unmatched from any office chair I've sat in. I am 6'3" so it is a bit short in the seat, however, he is correct about the health aspect of this chair. If you work from home like I do, buy this chair for posture reasons.
I bought this chair today the green and black one can't wait to get it in the mail to unbox it and build it up finally a comfortable chair to sit in and not have your back aching when you get up at times it will also match my razer set up with my gaming rig computer
Just grabbed it off Amazon after this review for $300 since there's a limited deal! What a steal :D super excited, my back has always had problems with almost all of the gaming chairs I've used. Hopefully this one's different 🤞
I have both and you're definitely right on the cozy vs. comfortable subject. The Fnatic can be reclined much more, perfect for movies and gaming. The Razer has better posture, better for long work sessions. Bought the Fnatic for $410 and the Iskur XL for $480, they're both worth it.
Very interesting chair, definitely the most unique lumbar I've ever seen! Also, unrelated question, have you/do you play Halo (any of them), and what would you recommend playing with to make the playtime more enjoyable, a keyboard and mouse or a controller? Thanks!
Umm very subjective. It does honestly feel more like I'm sitting in the bucket seats of a sports car, but with a lumbar support that is not used on any of them. The chair is awesome in that it you can adjust so many things, height, arm rests, leaning forward/backward tilt thing, and reclining option. If you are looking for something that is just straight up comfortable, not sure if this is that chair, I mean it is, but I'm sure there are far more comfortable options that just don't give a shit about your posture. This chair is 75% it's time to work no slouching, and 25% comfort. I don't know if that makes any sense to anyone.
Thank you for going over the fact that the chair is metal throughout, I was wondering about the legs since my old chairs legs snapped 2 days ago, looking to invest in a gaming chair
This was a Stinkin' Cozy video for sure. Price wise mehhhhhh......I love love that chair, but that price wow! I love your review on the chair. Your setup in the back OMG! are you having a setup tour soon.
You think $500 is a lot which it is. I paid $777 for a Mavix M7 plus $250 shipping to Hawaii! I will say it is the best chair I have ever sat on. I always got the traditional racing style gaming chair. I didn’t like the bucket seat feel and the material either it’s cloth or leather it gets hot!
And after 1 year i found this beautiful at 315 euro and i am waiting to put my hands on it!! When something u want to buy is overpriced just wait so u can save some money ❤️
Just ordered the XL version for $350 on Amazon! I’m only about 5’10 150 pounds but I still wanted the extra room because some say the standard version is a little “tight”
@@glitch7340 I'm now 5'11 and 170 lbs after heavily fixing my posture and working out, it would probably still be fine though😁 thank you so much for the help, I will def be getting it now
I liked to slouch but my back hated that shit, So bought into the hype and invested in a Herman Miller Aeron Remastered with a atlas headrest, and now i go from hurting after 2hours, to 12hours no worries. and my posture sitting is extremely improved!
Techne, please respond, it’s life changer ( or keyboard changer, it depends ;DD ). Please tell me how to open up HyperX alloy origins core and fix it, because the keyboard itself works, but Esc and the f1 to f11 doesn’t work and I want to fix it. I unscrewed all the screws even the one down the rubber feet, but I’m scared of breaking it, please help 🙏
I've had a 300$ ergo and a titan xl from experience ergo chairs are not that good lol sitting completely perfect straight up is just not normal and feels awkward after a while the titan xl is perfect imo but I'm getting the mavix m9 soon so maybe my opinion will change
@@23Liiis Tbh I was super excited about it but I was let down. It’s given me some new neck and back problems plus the seat pad where your butt goes gets really hard. After about 2-3 hours my butts numb and that’s really not that long
I should add I’m actually in the middle of returning it and if you do buy it DON’T buy from razer directly. Buy it from amazon or whatever you use. You’ll thank me.
@@GODOFCOD147 so overall u dont recommend it, even with 140$ discount ? i dont mind pay that price, i just want to be fully happy with my purchase Thank you for the reply ;)
Why do reviewers when they review a product look so but when I get the product it dont look as cool as it does in videos 😂 anyways love the video's keep it up🤙
Been saving up for this since last year. $500 more to go.
Don't forget get tax Boi. 😉
Lmfaoo

Damn 🤣🤣🤣

I have an old leather chair from 2013 so this came out at the right time!
Get a office chair instead
Get an ergonomic office chair
Or get a mavix chair

Really appreciate your insight Techne! The way you explained a chair being "Cozy" vs "comfortable" was really helpful.

Another brilliant review, keep up the good communication!
I love this review, and I love your enthusiasm! And I love the look of this black edition Iskur! ❤️
thank you so much
So smart to use roller blade wheels! Must make the interface with the floor feel so good.

Was that the iskur xl with lumbar support ? 😮
@@manuelhurtado953 he probably got the iskur x which doesnt have the lumbar mechanism. ive never seen the iskur or iskur xl at that price point
Have you still got the razer chair?
Have you tried the XL version?
Should I get an offfice chair or gaming?
My current gaming chair cause neck pain and puts my right arm to sleep. Wonder if this would be better?
Does this creak a little when you move?
This chair is $350 on Amazon right now.. Do you think this chair is worth getting now?
I have been thinking about getting this chair since last week and here comes Techne with a review on it 😂. Thanks a lot my friend!
lol, that's crazy. Juts check that width measurement, that's the only downside
@@TheTechne yeah! I was wondering how those lumps on the sides would feel and you answered that! I need a more slouchy stinkin cozy chair than this 😂
I've just picked a razer iskur up from amazon for £300 which I think equates to around $350ish
Why so cheap

is it made of leather? i cant use gaming leather chairs unfortunately. i can only use fabric or swede
Suede is leather tho...
Is this the XL version? Still tight?
Not sure, Im curious as well
The sides hurts my legs.. idk if I should return or not.
im still early in the video but do you think its better then office chairs? and how long do you feel that razer chair would last?
depends on what office chair. a cheap office chair is just as bad as a cheap gaming chair

Great review.
Hey Techne. Did you ever check out the gsp 370? They released a firmware update fixing the crackling and mic quality issues the headset had.
Wished they made it in mercury grey/white
Any chance of a comparison with a Secret Labs Titan and maybe a Need For Seat Maxnomic Leader.
many more sweet chair reviews to come, no plans for secret labs yet
It is worth it, if today is April Fools?
AHHAHA True
I really trust in you opinion so what u think its better, buy this chair at 350$ on sale, or buy a good office chair?
Hey Techne is the Pulse 3D a good choice for PlayStation for a 100 dollar budget or is there better cheaper ones?
I'd suggest the artics 7x it works for both the PS5 and series x. Or if you just want a PS5 headset the artics 7p will be good
I personally think getting a used herman miller aeron or embody would be a better investment
kraken v3x or cloud alpha s
The black and green version looked like trash but the all black actually looks surprisingly good
Hello, how tall are you? I am 182cm and I am going to buy the normal iskur

Is it me or is the audio not matching his mouth
I film my audio with video, not separate
I want to buy this chair but ... i’m from arg, the shipping is very expensive :( , good video.
This is is best if you don’t really have a tight budget
So you want a firm support for health, lounge chair for crossing your legs, wider to allow leaning left or right...man...you don't want much!
my boi I wish I could afford to get this
If someone can spend $500 on that chair, then they should just buy a $100 mesh chair n then save up for a Herman Miller. That's just my opinion
i cant see a chair
