A gaming chair with a fabric cover to brighten up a room. The Ymir from AQIRYS is broad, and the sturdy steel frame spells out comfort for users of up to 160 kg. A durable five-star base ensures stability, and the high-density foam filling is soft enough to comfortably game or work for several hours at a time. Is that enough to justify the price, though?

Should this be a con?
Not sure if it will be a good fit for a 160 kg

I mean, not every 160kg peeps are the same.

Personally, I prefer fabric office chairs over leather or pleather or plastic. Doesn't get sticky or as sweaty, and they don't make as much noise as the rubbing of leather or the occasional creak of plastic while you're adjusting positions. Most of the noise at that point are from loose bolts or insufficiently oiled hinges. I also prefer cloth seats since they don't soak up heat as fast as leather or plastic does and is much easier to clean and dry out. Carries over to cars too. I'd rather keep a "downgraded" fabric option vs fancy leather options.

Well honestly if that's your weight its a surprise if you can hoist yourself into this chair to begin with.

@crmaris Nice, neutral review, I like how the cons are not skipped over or 'overwritten' with excuses, a good chair is a good chair and that's the baseline the review seems to follow.

Im very skinny. But some people has 1.9m with 160kg and other people has 1.7m with 160kg, that's a totally different body structure.
