Hey guys, How does this compare to the king and formula series? I've been waiting for the king zero they had a while ago and I'd like to know (especially if you have it) if this is a worthy chair.

VocaliteWhat's special about the king zero chair? This one seems to be one of their heavy duty ones. If only I got my check within the 10 days I would get this, but I don't get it until another ~15 days.
Edit: After looking into them quickly it seems they are nearly identical. I only see a design difference, with the notable color options as well.

VocaliteThis is a portion of an email from DX Racer Contact/Inquiries:
"Iron Series: Thick, but firm, padding in the seat and backrest. This is one of our newest series launched in March 2015.
Back Height: 33 in Shoulder Width: 22 in Seat Depth: 20 in Seat Width: 21 in 18 in (front) 15 in (back) Seat Height: 18.5 in (lowest) 21.5 in (highest)

King Series: The largest & widest PC Gaming Chair chair we offer - Max weight is 300 pounds. Includes the Multi Functional Mechanism.
Back Height: 33 in Shoulder Width: 23.5 in Seat Depth: 19.5 in Seat Width: 21 in 16.5 in (front) 15 in (back) Seat Height: 19 in (lowest) 22 in (highest)
Weight Limit: 300
Fits up to 6'6 feet
*All armrests are adjustable(up/down) and pivot inward and outward*"
I'm not real sure about these measurements as the front and back seat widths don't make a lot of sense or the 4" difference in max height of the suggested user when the seat back measurements are the same. The also have the same aluminum base but DX Racer website FAQ section mentions a 300 lb limit on the King. The info on each series of chair on their website is kind of a hodge podge. Some have videos about model differences and exact dimensions and others are sparse on this kind of vital info.
Chairs4Gaming.com mentioned by Pixel shows both chairs rated for 400 lbs and a user height between 5'11" and 6'7". However, their flow-chart graphic thing also suggests there is no chair for anyone under 5'6" at all or anyone over 265 lbs and under 5'11".
I LOVE their products, but don't know why DX Racer doesn't put a little more effort into streamlining the selection process for their customers and providing the same information on their products with a comparison feature on the website. It's a luxury item after all, so I shouldn't have to WORK at figuring out which on I should buy.
Vocalite@vocalite The Iron series chair are superior to the king, drifting, formula, pretty much every series DXRacer has to offer. It is one of their best chairs. Please see my personal review on it in this discussion.
Please feel free to ask me any questions you would like to know. Thank you.
