Due to its form and color options, the Yama7 chair can be used with a gaming rig at home or in a professional working environment. The mesh upholstery is by far one of the greatest choices when it comes to comfort and breathability, and also making this chair an excellent choice for hotter environments.

It was about time for new and innovative chair designs. I am tired of the motorsport bucket seats cluttering up the mainstream market. A gamer spends countless hours in a chair, which means looks should not be the most important buying factor. An ergonomically designed chair prevents back problems and alleviates back pain with users who already suffer from back issues. ThunderX3 has proven that both the looks and the human engineering factor can be had.

The die-cast aluminium alloy used for the chair's frame and base increases the maximum weight limit to 150 kg (330 lb), but ThunderX3 suggests a weight limit of only 125 kg (275.57 lb) for maximum comfort. Breathable, padded PU stripes adorn the sitting and backrest areas, nicely emphasizing the chair's gaming aspect. The Yama7 is large enough, and its ergonomics are a significant plus, with the adjustable headrest another feature meant to provide extra comfort to large users. Finally, the one-year warranty is a big minus since this is a sturdy build. Given the price, the company should consider increasing the warranty period.

Other than the black/cyan color of the reviewed sample, there are two more color options to choose from: black and black/red. A dual-color option means the back of the support frame, stitching, headrest logo, and color inside the casters will be in the secondary color. All color variations of the Yama7 have the same high price tag. Should you opt for it, it is up to you to pick the color option that most appeals to you. However, with a price tag of $600, this chair is definitely not for everyone.
