Gamdias Achilles RGB Gaming Chair

crmaris · Oct 5, 2018

The Gamdias Achilles is not just a gaming chair of high build quality as it is one of the very few to feature RGB lighting and support for users of up to 200 kg. The cherry on top is the embedded footrest, which proved to be a nice feature, especially after long hours of gaming.

It's hip for the kids.

Folks would walk into the gaming area and end up like this....

Mescalamba · Oct 5, 2018

Hm, yea everything has to have RGB.

I pass.. my next PC build will be called Darkness. And will have leather chair. Probably Noble.

Fleurious · Oct 5, 2018

Now if only someone would make an RGB toilet seat!

Yall are real funny. I actually have this chair, it has its perks. I didn't buy it for the RGB but I don't mind it either cause I'm not really going to use it. I ended up getting it for half off and don't regret buying it. It is built really well and the footrest is very convenient. I will probably never buy another chair without a footrest.

I would like RGB in my toilet.

Why are we (I presume that's what "yall" mean, but I don't speak ghetto so I'm not sure) funny? Because we are mocking a product aimed at idiots? Come on.
If you got it for half the price and the build IS actually any good, well, maybe.

Anyone who buys this crap for $400 is an idiot, period.

First of, far from ghetto, your assumption speaks highly of your character. FWIW I'm not taking what you said as an insult but rather asking you to be mindful of what you say to others. On to the topic at hand, the chair is very well made. I would buy it at its retail pricing as well. It deserves the praises and like the reviewer mentioned the footrest is by in large one of its best characteristics. It is currently my daily driver, I also have a few others on hand and have tested out quite a few from dxracer to the likes of herman miller embody. You can find other chairs out there that will satisfy you within this price category but I can almost assure you(no footrest will be included).

Then why you get defensive when what people is mocking is the rgb part?

Definitely ghetto (and butchered too

) If you are ashamed of it, why don't you use proper english instead?
