ThunderX3 Flex Pro Mesh Chair Review

Chairs, whether it is gaming or office, we spend almost 50 days a year sitting in a chair. Well, if you have a typical office job that is. So of course you want to make sure that where you're sitting is both relaxing and comfortable. This is where the ThunderX3 Flex Pro Mesh chair comes in. Retailing at a pretty lofty £419.99 MSRP, it is by no means cheap. But can you put a price on comfort? Let's find out. Let the buttocks, see the chair I know what you're saying, that all chairs are the same. This is where you're wrong. They really aren't, each chair has its own merits.

ThunderX3 LAB-X Desk Review

I'm usually found building LEGO rather than desks. But when we got an email from ThunderX3 asking us if we wanted to check out a desk, the answer was a resounding Yes! Following on shortly the box was delivered and I found myself the owner of a new ThunderX3 Lab-X height adjustable desk. I was like a proud parent. I was also wondering where on earth to build this behemoth. Bring Your Gaming To New Heights Armed with some trusty tools, a charged drill, and some fancy white gloves that came in the box, off I went, into the building zone. Otherwise known as the floor in the office. Building Time First things first, you will need a lot of space to build this desk. Thankfully the office at TCHQ has a decent floor area. And so it was time for the old desk to move out, replaced by all the pa...

Backforce V Plus- Chair Review

I recently got the opportunity to take a look at the Backforce V Plus! Toting a price point of €499, I put this chair to the test. How did it hold up? Is it worth the price of admission? Sitting At a Hefty Price. I entered this review a little nervous as my first chair critique. “how do I go about reviewing a chair?” I thought to myself. Thankfully, my worries were swiftly dispelled. The Backforce V Plus gave me plenty to think about due to the sheer amount of features and customizability offered. The Build Regrettably, initial impressions were less than stellar. Put simply, I’m an over-worrier. The Backforce V Plus did not come packaged with instructions, leaving this hapless reviewer staring bewilderingly at all these components. However, in hindsight, the Backforce V Plus proved...
