Joey0while the review will be sweet to see, this chair va the king may be different as this is more of a midrange seat and if I remember right the king was once one of the largest DxRacer had. Looking forward to the video.

ZelgiusthebraveHey, Zelgiusthebrave : )
The King did used to be their largest seat, and it is indeed large. So much so I had plenty of space left over when I sat in it and this appealed to me the most out of the the series I was able to test since their chairs with narrower seats constricted your legs due to the side bolsters.
I found their side bolsters to be under padded and I could easily push through with 1 finger to the metal. I did also get a chance to try their Wide & Classic series and although they had wider seats without intrusive bolsters they weren't as soft and overall comfortable as the King was.
The Racing was my next option since the side bolsters elevated only slightly over the seat top but then this raised the concern of exuding pain over an extended period of time sitting in them since my thighs would actually be resting on the side bolsters. Keep in mind I was only in these chairs perhaps 5 minutes, max.
The seat I fit in more appropriately for my sitting style was the Wide series but that also turned out to be their firmest in my experience. The Shift series reminds me the most of the Wide series in seat appearance so if it does turn out have a softer cushion then to me this would be the most ideal. Here's to hoping! lol
I really am taking a test of faith here but so far from what I've read and seen in some reviews, I'm feeling pretty confident with this purchase. Time shall tell :D
I'll post a link here once I do produce the video.

I was literally about to purchase the DXRracer King Series after being able to test drive them until I saw this drop. So, I'm taking a chance on you guys without test driving your chairs....blind faith test! *fingers crossed*
I plan on doing a DXRracer vs Clutch Chairz video comparison. I'm not a Youtuber by any means (at all actually) but after checking review after review of gaming chairs that never really addressed my questions (seat cushion comfort for the most part) or were pretty much reviewed by sponsored channels who don't dare say anything overly negative someone needs to help the other JoeyO's out there who can't test these chairs out.
Looking forward to receiving this :)
