Black Friday gaming chair deals 2022: cheap seats for gamers and streamers

Noblechairs Epic (black and copper) | 4D armrests | PU leather | $499 $199 at Noblechairs (save $300) (opens in new tab)
Noblechairs has a handful of key designs for its gaming chairs: the Epic, the Hero, and the Icon. Our favourite is probably the Hero, but we've rested our rears on all three and they're all very close to one another in terms of comfort and style. It's hard to pass up the Epic at this price, anyways, and it looks lovely in black and copper.

AndaSeat Jungle 2 | Neck pillow | Lumbar support | Footrest | $249.99 $199.99 at AndaSeat (save $50) (opens in new tab)
Already decent value for the money, we scored the AndaSeat Jungle a 70 in our testing. It's not that it's a terrible chair, just a little off when it comes to the footrest and finish, otherwise it's a great chair for the money. Nice and wide, too.

Razer Enki X | 299 lbs max | 152 degree recline | $299.99 $229.99 at Best Buy (save $70) (opens in new tab)
Now we're talking: a Razer gaming chair that doesn't break the bank. Surprisingly, you'll find a lot of similarities between this and the more expensive standard Enki model, including an overall comfortable design and plenty of recline. The differences to note are 2D armrests on the X, along with the lack of head cushion.

Razer Enki | 299 lbs max | 152 degree recline | 4D armrests | $399.99 $339.99 at Best Buy ($60) (opens in new tab)
Razer has a few models of gaming chair to choose from, and the Enki is a more pared-back option versus its more involved (and more expensive) Iskur. The funny thing is Razer has also made cheaper versions of both the Enki and Iskur, denoted with an X, so you have a lot of options available to you at any budget. Choose the standard Enki if you want an excellent headrest and highly adjustable armrests, as you lose those on the Enki X. Otherwise, the Enki X appears the better value proposition right now.

Secretlab Omega Cloud9 edition | 4D armrests | $569 $389 at Secretlab (save $180) (opens in new tab)
Wrapped in Secretlab prime 2.0 PU Leather, this Classic Omega gaming chair is the more reasonably priced choice. It may not come with magnetic headrests but it's highly adjustable. In fact, this still ranks as one of our favorite gaming chairs. The cheapest versions tend to come in esports flair, so it's worth checking those models out to see which you like most.

Secretlab Titan Evo 2022 Worlds 2021 edition | 4D armrests | $659 $439 at Secretlab (save $220) (opens in new tab)
This is the cheapest version of the Titan Evo 2022 we can find right now. It's the same impressive and excellent chair we love, except it's styled after last year's Worlds esports tournament. If you don't care about looks, this might be the one to go for. Or if you love Worlds that much? Otherwise, more plain or exciting options are available for a touch more cash.

Secretlab Titan Evo 2022 Classic | 4D armrests | $589 $484 at Secretlab (save $105) (opens in new tab)
This is our pick for the best gaming chair, and you'll know why once you sit in it. Or read our Secretlab Titan Evo review. As for this specific design, it's one of the more understated of the lot. It's not as sensual to the touch as the Softweave fabric choice, but still boasts immaculately upholstered, premium quality Neo Hybrid Leatherette, and of course fantastic ergonomics. The full price can be a bit deceiving on Secretlab chairs, as we rarely ever see it, but this is still a good deal on a great chair.

Secretlab Titan Evo 2022 Plush Pink | 4D armrests | $609 $504 at Secretlab (save $105) (opens in new tab)
Nothing makes a statement to your streaming audience (or live-in partner) like a baby pink gaming chair, but of course there are other colours to chose from. It's a standout choice for the Softweave Plus Fabric design, and is a top tier design, pink or not.

Razer Iskur X | 299 lbs max | 4D armrests | $399.99 $284.99 at Best Buy (save $115) (opens in new tab)
Razer knows what it's doing when it comes to good quality peripherals, and its chairs are no different. With a loud green trim and subtle snakeskin design, the Iskur is a distinctive gaming chair, from a trusted brand.

NeueChair Silver | Adjustable armrests | NeueMesh materials | Ergonomic design | $649 $609 at SecretLab (save $40)
(opens in new tab)Did you know that Secretlab also makes office chairs? The NeueChair takes all the comfort and durability of a Secretlab gaming chair but strips away the entire gamer look. It's designed to improve posture and reduce strain on your back after long working hours or gaming. One nice touch is that the chair's height and backrest tilt levers are actually in the armrests, so you don't have to reach down awkwardly to adjust the chair. 

Herman Miller Embody | Adjustable armrests | Polyester upholstery | Ergonomic design | $1,795 $1,346 at Herman Miller (save $449) (opens in new tab)
The Embody is perhaps one of the comfiest chairs you'll ever sit in. It's also likely one of the most expensive chairs you'll ever sit in. It's an investment for sure, but your back, neck, and spine will thank you. These chairs are built to last and even have a 12-year warranty if something ever goes wrong.

Herman Miller Aeron | Breathable fabric | Highly adjustable | ergonomic design | $1,795 $1,436 at Herman Miller (save $359) (opens in new tab)
Slightly cheaper than the Embody we love for gaming, the Aeron is much more of an office chair in its styling. That said, it offers a highly breathable design for long-term comfort, making it great for running raids. With straightforward ergonomics and compact size, it's a great choice for anyone looking beyond the gaming chair aesthetic. Like the Embody, you can expect at least 12 years out of this chair under warranty.

Anda Seat Kaiser 2 | 4D armrests | 160 degree recline | £349.99 £279.99 at Amazon (save £70) (opens in new tab)
We've rested our rump on the Kaiser 2 and found it perfectly suited to big and tall gamers. It's very well built, but beyond that it offers a lot of the features we'd expect from a high-end chair with a more moderate price tag today.

Noblechairs Epic Gaming Chair (black and copper) | 4D armrests | PU leather | £329.99 £284.99 at Overclockers UK (save £45) (opens in new tab)
Noblechairs has a handful of key designs for its gaming chairs: the Epic, the Hero, and the Icon. Our favourite is probably the Hero, but we've rested our rears on all three and they're all very close to one another in terms of comfort and style. It's hard to pass up the Epic at this price, anyways, and it looks lovely in black and copper.

Secretlab Titan Evo 2022 Classic | 4D armrests | £544 £344 at Secretlab (save $200) (opens in new tab) 
This is our pick for the best gaming chair, and you'll know why once you sit in it. Or read our Secretlab Titan Evo review. As for this specific design, it's one of the more understated of the lot. It's not as sensual to the touch as the Softweave fabric choice, but still boasts immaculately upholstered, premium quality Neo Hybrid Leatherette, and of course fantastic ergonomics. The full price can be a bit deceiving on Secretlab chairs, as we rarely ever see it, but this is still a good deal on a great chair.

Herman Miller Sayl | Plenty of colour options | £716 £572.80 at Herman Miller (save £143.20) (opens in new tab)
I've only had the pleasure of sitting in a Sayl chair in an actual office, but damn if it wasn't a step-up from the regular cheapo office chairs I was used to. It's not got a high back to it, which might make it less suitable for lounging around playing games, but it's a great, and very colourful, choice for a small at-home office. It's pretty compact and doesn't dominate a room.

Herman Miller Aeron | Breathable fabric | Highly adjustable | ergonomic design | £1,312 £1,049.60 at Herman Miller (save £262.40) (opens in new tab)
There's no Embody deal in the Herman Miller UK sale, but the Aeron is available. Here's what we love about it:

Slightly cheaper than the Embody we favour for gaming, the Aeron is much more of an office chair in its styling. That said, it offers a highly breathable design for long-term comfort, and that actually makes it pretty great for running raids. With straightforward ergonomics and a compact size, it's a great choice for anyone looking beyond the gaming chair aesthetic. Like the Embody, you can expect at least 12 years out of this chair under warranty.
