KitGuru says: The noblechairs epic series white is an comfortable and well designed chair that is worth the price tag. It looks fantastic too!
Love mine BUT the seat is very firm! Takes your ass some time to get used to it, like spinning 😀
Even before this review i have been wanting to get one of these, they look amazing, i got to try out a friends one and the comfort for myself was second to none. Here’s hoping santa drops one down the chimney for me this year!
EPIC is the old one. Why not review the new and improved version called ICON?
im pretty sure they reviewed what they were sent. Kitguru doesn’t buy hardware to review, they are sent it. So if its came from noblechairs who are represented by OCUK I would imagine they still want it reviewed as they are selling them (on sale right now for £270). Those ICON chairs range in price to £520 – so quite expensive.
You can get an ICON for around 380 euro. Not the real leather version of course.
The EPIC Series White is new, it’s a new colour to the range. We already reviewed the real leather a while back but never the PU, plus this suited Briony’s setup. We will be reviewing the ICON and also the Nitro Concepts S300 at later dates.
Never understood why people are hyped about these “gaming chairs”. If these car seats are being bought due to looks then better add rgb lights as well.
Care about your health and buy ergonomic chair instead.
Spend over 3 weeks in looking for a good chair. I am not a gamer but a frequent users for 8 hrs in the day and then some at home at night. Reason enough to be looking for a good ergonomic chair. Most of the reviews i have seen about the noble chair are correct. It’s a very good chair amongs the dx racers etc. So i wanted to spend some extra on a real leather edition instead of PU… Turns out the all leather variant only has genuine leather on the contact parts (40% of the chair). The rest is PU / Faux . At a 210 euro’s extra (339 vs 549 euro’s) this last one is too much. 210 euros for 2 sheets of leather is simply not the quality advertised. Better save your money and go for the PU ones
