Vertagear Racing Series S-Line SL2000 Gaming Chair Review
Vertagear S-Line SL2000 Gaming Chair
Legit Reviews has been doing hardware reviews targeted to PC gamers for more than a decade, but believe it or not, we have never reviewed nor owned an actual gaming chair. We’ve used a handful of office chairs over the years, but nothing that was aimed specifically at gamers. When our friends over at 4GamerGear offered us the opportunity to look at Vertagear’s new S-Line of Racing Chairs we figured that we’d give it a shot. Vertagear is a brand new company and this is their first gaming chair line that will be available in both North America and Europe. At first we thought Vertagear was somehow related to AKRACING, a very popular brand of gaming chairs that is widely available in Europe, but we were told by 4GamerGear that they two are separate entities.
Vertagear launched the S-Line of gaming chairs this week and they are three different models available with differing features and price points.
- SL2000 – Focus on ergonomics, design, and functionality – $289.99 (184.99 inc VAT)
- SL4000 – Unparalleled level of comfort and adjustability $329.99 (214.99 inc VAT)
- SL5000 – Racing inspired for extreme gamers with wide range of adjustability and the best comfort – $339.99 (229.99 inc VAT)
The sample we received is the Vertagear SL2000 in the Black/Red color combination, but you can also get it in Black/White, Black/Green, Black/Blue, Black/Pink and Carbon Black.
