Expensive Chairs

[Kurse]

Hey everyone,

I'm considering spending several hundred dollars on a Secret Lab Titan (or Titan XL) chair but before I do I thought I'd ask around if any of you already own one and what your impressions of said chair are?
I've gone through multiple budget chairs and none of them provide sufficient comfort and support so I'm looking into high quality chairs.
Another idea I had was to buy a driver's seat from the junk yard and build my sim pit around that but that sounds like a lot of work and I'm not sure where I'd put it in the house.

A little back story without boring you with detail.
I suffer from neuropathy caused by autonomic dysfunction and the constant pain severely limits my flying time. My hope is that if I get a better chair I'll be able to play and hang out longer without suffering so much for it.

I'm open to any thoughts or suggestions.

Thanks,
Kurse.

I bought the Secret Lab Titan 2020 last year and it has helped my back a lot so fatt. Sometimes i have to sit 12+ hours on that chair and it really makes a difference. What i don't know however if it helps with the neuropathy you experience. I'd certainly get a medical professionals oppinion beforehand on that.

Thank you Elos, that's the kind of info I was looking for.
Unfortunately, no chair is actually going to 'help' so I'm just looking for one that doesn't make the pain worse.

As incredibly cool as that is I added up all the components and it would be over $1,130 before we even talk about shipping

Quality wise they shouldn't be much different. With the Secretlab Titan you just have fewer customization options but in general the final price tends to be cheaper.

I thought it'll fit your title "expensive chairs"
I love that it has a center stick cut-out by default.
But Scoobys' advice is woth a try, car seats are designed to be sat in for hours and hours and can be dirt cheap if pulled out a wrecked car.

Yes that's also a point worth condsidering depending on what you want to use that chair for. If it is only flying the car seat may be a good option. However if you spend a lot of time besides flying in it (e.g. for remote work at home) those "gamer-office" chairs maybe the better option.
