Watch Next: Best Office Chair Tier List (20 Chairs Ranked) kzfaq.info/get/bejne/b7qeYNt_zsqqon0.html

Happy to see they didn't just eviscerate the chair and write it off as a gaming chair from the get-go. I bought one a few months ago and have really liked it so far. I was also coming from a very basic Ikea chair )not even an "ergonomic" one) and mostly was interested in the adjustability and I do like the bucket design as I'm a car guy. It's quite a bit stiffer material than I was expecting, but I like it more the more I use it. I've been working from home for over a year now, so that was one reason I finally decided to pull the trigger on a "real" chair. For the price I'm pretty happy. I got the softweave fabric because I have cats, but even with the minor upcharge it's still quite a bit cheaper than many "ergonomic" office chairs and seems to have more adjustability than similarly priced office chairs, at least anything I would be able to find locally.

I know this is an old video, but, I've watched like 10 reviews on this chair and yours is the best quality and most comprehensive. Thank you

You are right about the seat plastics to the leather(fake leather) making noise. I am just about to recieve two custom made things from them that slot into the plastics on the side to reduce the rubbing noise. I also used in the meantime a small to size cut piece of paper and slid it in the side of the plastic, makes the noise disappear.

Super informative to the detail & seemingly honest review unlike all the others reviews I've seen on YT about this chair.

nobody uses a keyboard tray on a gaming setup

I had the same issue with the Leather rubbing on the plastic noises. They sent me a barrier kit and the noise was completely gone. It took me 2 mins to install them. They are basically 2 pieces on the sides that go in between and are not visible. I have the XL version. I highly recommend the chair.

I received the Titan EVO 2022 black leatherette chair four days ago. I was impressed with the way it was packaged in the box , foam padding throughout which helps eliminate any issues one might encounter during transport. Instructions to assemble the chair were very clear, and the parts for the chair justified the $580 price tag. My only peeve is the formaldehyde like smell on the chair padding . I’m going on day 3 and I’m still “airing” out the chair. As for the lumbar support, it’s ok, it could be better. Please note: the chair padding is firm and I recommend getting a “purple” seat cushion. Good luck .

Great review! Can you please also review their office chair, the Secret lab NeueChair?

@BTODtv What would you recommend around the same price (give or take 100 dollars/euros) as this Titan Evo 2022 please?

I got the softweave titan XL and it makes no noise whatsoever anywhere on the chair. It's completely silent, comfortable, and solid. If I had to nitpick, I'd say the only thing I don't care for is the small amount of play in the arm rests, but that's just a byproduct of the ability to adjust them to that extent.

i was looking for more of an office chair and this video was fab, which ergo office chair for teh same pricepoint would your reommend?

What's the other chair you used for comparison in the recline section?

Can you do the Razer Enki Gaming Chair? Thank you! It has a natural lumbar curve in the back similar to the Eurotech Vera

Im just around 6ft weighing 170. I have pretty wide shoulders. What size would be better, Regular or XL

thanks for the review, a friend told me to check this out before buying a haworth fern and i think i'd rather just spend the little extra and get something with twice the warranty.

I'm torn between this titan Evo gaming chair or the Haworth Soji office chair. I use keyboard mouse as well as lean back with a controller about 4- 6hr a day. Im 5'10" 200 lbs, any advice?

I have sat on a softweave version daily for over 3 years. I haven't had any issues with backpain, stiffness or anything. I don't use the backpillow, I dont find it comfortable for me. But overall, the chair is very comfortable! It's the best chair I have had. I'm very happy with it, and I recommend it.

Hello. What ergonomic office chair would you recommend in the 400-600 dollar price range? (best quality to price ratio)

great review! very in depth, i never lean back most appealing thing to me is it sits straight upright something that many dont seem to do anymore

What's your opinion of the Sihoo M57 compared to the Titan Evo 2022?

Hi, do you have a review for the softweave version?

For people watching this 2 years later. I ordered one of these chairs in October of this year (2023) and can confirm the seat & back are hard as a park bench. Much firmer than my 2008 DXRacer King, which also has a firm seat. I also have a Steelcase Leap v2 I use at work, which is well known to have a firm seat. So when people say the chair is firm, they are definitely not exaggerating. It’s a shame, because everything else about it was great. I opted to return it. If they dialed back the firmness, I’d probably have kept it. I also ordered their lumbar pillow, which feels nice due to it being memory foam, but it slides you further forward in the seat pan due to how thick it is, making it less ergonomic. Also, regarding returns, they do not cover their initial shipping either. So this “experiment” with the chair cost ultimately cost around $106 for shipping both ways.

I would love to hear btod talk about the new razer chairs!

At 5'5 I had the 2020 version for over a year, using it with and without the lumbar pillow and had lower back pain I couldn't alleviate . Swapped to my old chair and it went away instantly. Tried the Evo 2022 and after 2-3 weeks I was hurting again. It just felt too big for me, despite messing with the lumbar settings, no matter where I put it it just wasn't comfortable. I just managed to get a Haworth Fern for an amazing deal and it's night and day. This fits me perfectly, personally. Thank goodness Secret Labs has a decent return policy. Very nice chair, just not for everyone.

If the 2022 Titan seat cushion is softer than the 2020, then was the 2020 seat cushion made out of concrete?

Anyone about to buy one please keep in mind this chair is as hard as a rock. I found it way too hard and not comfortable. Its solid and quality product, but I prefer a soft cozy chair.

What keyboard mount are you using in the video?

damn i love this channel sooo much. I finally bought a leap v2 from you guys, cant wait!!

The headrest pillow is magnetised will it drop off after some times ?

Is this chair good for office work and also does it provide good neck support for someone who is suffering from neck pain ?

How long can we expect any Titan Evo chair cushion to last? My problems with chairs over the years is the cushion/foam wearing out after a year, any thoughts on this?

The Arms work really well with my desk set-up, but I could see if I had my tray and whatnot lower how they could be an issue. I really like my Evo 2022, but you are definitely paying for the name. I am 5'10/11 and I have the regular chair and the seat doesn't touch the back of my legs either.

I'm 187cm tall and I wonder what size should I go since I'm in between the regular and the XL...

i can see on the video that your example is sitting crooked too lol. this is extremely common. mine does the same thing. the cylinder isn't straight internally. depending where it is in the 360 degree rotation, it either leans left or right. plus the backrest is literally built crooked. PSA don't bother with secretlab. they're all hype.

I have an xl viego edition titan evo 2022 and i had two slight issue but secretlabs helped me fix those by sending parts other than that i love the chair and have no problems with it. I also move alot on the chair and didnt have any issues yet

Did you try the soft weave version?

What about this one vs the Razer Iskur?

good solid review, thanks for that

Can someone familiar with the chair comment on the side wings by your shoulders? Does it push them in and make you hunch? I'm pretty interested in this chair but don't want to have to worry about my neck getting sore from my shoulders hunching over. Also, I try to keep my chairs for 5 or 6 years, does it look like this one will last that long or will I be done with it in 2?

Decent review. Needed to compare it to more chairs though. Gj

Cool review.

In this video, it was said that the BTOD 100MC was selling for around $200. Now, 6 months later, that same chair is $300. That's a 50% increase in price in only 6 months. Inflation has been high, but it was probably closer to 4.7. 7.9% at most. I've noticed this trend with a lot of chairs, from many different manufacturers. What is going on? Is it because more people are working from home?

What is your opinion on the andaseat kaiser 3? It's a "clone" of the secretlab but apparently it has a softer seat and is more open for movement and has the same set of features as the titan. I am considering the kaiser 3 also because it is a little cheaper

the return policy is totally screwed. u need to pay 150 dollars to ship it back.

Can you guys compare this to the similarly priced Haworth Soji in the next video?

Great review, not as biased and ”bought” as other youtubers. I find it way to hard and lumbar support are very uncomfortable.

16:11 where is that video? Titan vs similarly priced office chairs?

My chair is perfectly silent but the lumbar does occasionally creak. That being said I didn't go leather I got the fabric so maybe that's why

Does the base of the chair contain wood?

I purchased this chair and it arrived yesterday. I purchased this chair to replace my dx racer. End result, the titan 2022 evo regular size chair is now my wife's chair. Why? The chair is not as comfortable as my dx racer. The seat cushion is harder than the dx racer. But what surprised me more, the back cushion is much harder than the dx racer. It's almost like putting your back against a wall, especially if you use the lumbar support. They say it's always greener but after trying this titan, I appreciate my dx racer chair.

one of first chairs I bought was cheap 90EU office chair. lasted me a year then cylinder gave out. 2nd chair I bought was cheap gaming chair for 150EU or so, lasted 3-4 years. It back screw location chassis broke so it became all tilted + ass cushioning became non existant. Now I bought secretlab chair for 550 . So far I love the comfort and adjustability... whenever it's lounging or sitting properly. Now I just hope it will last 6 years at least to make it money worth.

I was all for these chairs, highly promoted them telling friends they had to get them. Sadly 4 months after the 3 year mark the air cylinder is going out and fast. Some would say well how much do you use it, weight and height. My boyfriend bought one for him and I a couple months apart. I use mine from 10-12 hrs a day for work and leisure. Im up and down a lot so not sitting in it that many hours straight. Boyfriend on the other hand sits in it from 4-6 hrs maybe 2-3x a week. He works all other days and is usually too exhausted to be at his desk on days he works. At around the same time both our chairs air lift cylinders are going out at the same time at the same drastic decline. I loved my chair. It helped when i hurt my lower back. Just feel like items today are not holding up like how they use to. When I was younger my father has a pc chair that lasted 9 years. Given it was no where near as comfortable but two kids were trading off, using it from morning to evening and then my father would use it for long hours on the weekends. Feel like now adays a higher price tag doesnt always equal great quality. Over all a great chair, I love it to death, but put parts of it could be done with better longer lasting parts for how much they are selling it for.

Day 5 having this chair and I’m still struggling to get that consistent ‘sweet spot’ comfort to be honest.

Love this channel’s review. Hope you guys review the Razer Iskur gaming chair as it has a lumbar system. I’m still debating between that and this chair.

start doing stable normal desk reviews please

dunno where you get the seat was "softer" because mine is hard as all get out..lol

I just ordered this. I am not a fan of "Gaming Chairs" but i heard A LOT of good things about this chair. I am coming from a small Hyken Chair and was looking for something bigger. update: I have had this chair for over a month and it's the best chair I've owned. No pains and aches after long sitting sessions. It also helps to stretch every hour if you plan on sitting a while.

For me it's a big difference I was sitting in a kitchen chair and now have the titan evo xl, it's so confortable love it

I got an Evo 2022 recently, the seat cushion is NOT soft. its feels like sitting on a piece of wood. they say it'll break in, but i'm curious who breaks first, me or the cushion.

I recently got a used Herman Miller Mira 1 from a government auction, but I have to say I can confidently say it was one of the worst chairs I've ever used. The Back support was 10/10 the actual seat part was brutally uncomfortable. Ended up going with one of these even though I saw some reviews about it having noise issues on some older ones and I have to say I much prefer this over the Herman Miller but again mine was a used Mira 1 so maybe that had something to do with it and the new herman millers could be better.

Hahaha, his face when he was actually done adjusting the seat when laying backwards xD He enjoyed it alright!

This is a very good review! I bought this chair, I like it a lot but it's true I don't have much experience with chairs. However for a gamer who just wants a good gaming chair this is a great choice.

14:40 wanna try the other lever?...

Im 5 feet 7 small or regular ?

Definitely not overrated, everything about the chair is premium, even down to the packaging and assembly. I got the soft weave material, and it feels and smells great. Huge improvement over my old cheap gaming chair, and loving the lumbar support.

Just went from a knock off walmart crappy red and black chair to one of these and it’s insane

What’s a good chair with a head rest - seems like a thing decent is over $1000

please check the ergotopia masterback!

i want that desk lol link?

the problem is it's not a 'free' return when you will pay at least $100 to ship it back

I really dont want an office chair feel or look for my gaming. I want something col looking with most functions. Something that I can sit one leg up or slouch in! Very happy to see you did not went full on armageddon on this one. nice !

Excellent review. For the price Secret Lab charge, they are highly overrated chairs especially for tall guys over 6 ft.

I've just ordered this one. Hope it's comfy

What about the squeaky issues?

Just got this model, I like everything about it except how stiff it is. I hope that changes over time.

ye, it’s too high off the ground even on the lowest height. I can’t get my legs at a 90 degree angle and I followed their sizing guide.

could you guys review the sihoo m57 it’s a really good budget chair

nice video

Great review guys! I ordered mine some days ago (softweave tho, not the leather one), and I hope I'm gonna be happy with it. I'm not a gamer but a poker player. However like a gamer I use my chair for watching movies, eating in front of my computer, resting, etc.. Ive tried a couple of ergo chairs (ergohuman, and some steelcase), but I found the price very high for what it is (and no second hand in south east asia...). Ok, they were comfy overall, but not blown minding. So I decided to give a try to that Titan Evo 2022, let's hope I wont regret it

Like every other video/review I've seen, this failed to mention or show the angle of the backrest. Every high-back chair I've seen requires you to recline when using it; if you sit up straight, your back will be several inches away from the backrest. This chair claims to have an 85-165 degree angle for the backrest, which would indicate you can sit up straight, but every picture I've seen shows an angle much greater than 85 degrees, so I'm not so sure about that claim.

Should compare this chair to the Arozzi Primo gaming chair. Arozzi is a Swedish company. And Arozzi Primo is their flagship chair.

It's great for gaming. But for office work I use an other chair. When I switch to gaming, gaming chair everyday.

love mine worth every penny you just don't get it till you try it and find the sweet spot !

Those synchro recline will break your spine in 1month, I tested 4 biggest chair stores, about 100 chairs and none up to 400€ price was worth the price. Ended up with titan 2020 and will never sell it. Best chair I tryed in 33 years. I have back problems, but with this chair I can spend 8 hours working without any problems.

I personally hate the way office chairs "rock". It's not even like rocking really. It's one of the reasons I really prefer the rocking motion on chairs like this.

I like how Secretlab designs a better gaming chair by removing the side bolstering...just imagine if they got rid of the ridiculous racing seat aesthetic, completely. Perhaps even designed a proper "regular" chair.

The packaging and build quality is superb, but honestly, I'm returning mine. The comfort is just not there. It feels like a brick and is stiff, the back is so flat and only really has the lumbar support for any amount of texture or support. The arm rests are nice, but they don't really let your arms rest, they feel somewhat squishy but hard and I noticed pain in my arms where contact was made after long enough. They jiggle and don't really feel solid, alongside the arms not sliding backward enough for me to actually rest my arms on them without needing to wheel much closer to the monitor than I'd want to naturally.

Just amazing

My titan evo feels like I am sitting on a rock. The cushion is so hard. My dxracer I could sit on all day and be comfortable

I'd like to point that the magnetic headrest doesn't stay in place. I am 5' 9" 150lb and got the appropriate size chair, the magnetic thing keeps falling off for my height.

Just got mine and the seat is NOT comfortable. His review of the soft side is accurate but the immediate center seat cushion is pretty damn hard and not comfortable at all. Hoping it will break in a little better with some time but overall disappointed and will probably return

One weird point tho: no conclusion, no overall comment. Is it because you don't sell it so you don't wanna say something bad or good about it?

I have a question for you guys. Do you feel any difference when you put the lumbar support up and down? Because me i don’t feel anything, like if it’s not working. When I change in and out, I totally feel it, but nothing about up and down… so I tried to feel the mechanism, touching the backrest but from the back of the seat, and I feel the mechanism itself, moving. However i don’t feel any difference against my back. You? I sent an email to secretlab more than a week ago, but no answer…. No comment….

the cover on the armrests falls apart very quickly.... within months

My Titan evo 2022 was bult like a tank, but ...Either the firmness varies from chair to chair or people are just flat out delusional or lying when they say it's comfortable. it's like stiiting on a park bench with the seat made of bricks. Glad I ditched it. I'm pretty built and padded but I could feel every bump of the horrendous nobbly lumbar mechanism. Now I'm happy with a truly comfortable AKracing Masters Pro.

I got the Evo 2022 as a gift had no idea the cost or quality. I have to say overall it's very cheaply made even with the leather edition i have. The knobs and lumbar adjusters are very cheaply made, plastic flimsy for this price point. The magnetic arm rest are nice but mine have unfinished areas underneath. Most of the functions of the chair are very clunky simply raising the height or lowering the back is not a high end experience. I'm shocked at the price of this chair coming from a Herman Miller there simply is no comparison. This chair feels like a cheap $150 chair at best. The only thing i did like was the pillow and the idea of replacable magnetic parts.

16:03 pure bliss

Recently got a ash color leatherette evo XL, and it's amazing, quite a big chair but sits very comfortable and gives you many options in terms of changing your comfortability, so i definitely recommend it, although its quite costly (578 euro for me), but definitely worth the price knowing it will go for years to come!
