Razer did a reputation for itself within the gaming area, with dependable {hardware} that addresses the excessive calls for and really particular wants of players. The corporate makes every thing from customizable gaming mice to highly effective laptops. However can Razer meet the wants of players? With the Razer Fujin Professional Gaming Chair, the reply appears to be sure.
Not like most so-called gaming chairs, the Fujin Professional will not look misplaced in an everyday workplace. It eschews the all-too-common racing-style seat and as an alternative opts for a light-weight, breathable mesh on an aluminum alloy body that appears trendy with out being flashy.
The Fujin Professional mannequin has a number of benefits over its inexpensive cousin: the aforementioned aluminum body replaces the nylon body on the Fujin; an adjustable headrest is now an included choice fairly than an choice; the lumbar help could be adjusted each vertically and forwards and backwards; and the armrests can now be adjusted in 4 totally different instructions.
All of this provides as much as a premium chair that may spoil any gamer.
S-Tier help
The very first thing that struck me in regards to the Fujin Professional is how extremely straightforward it’s to arrange and configure. The aluminum body is so robust that when inserting the seat again into the bottom, the body was in a position to keep in place with minimal help whereas I screwed within the bolts. In complete, the setup course of took about quarter-hour.
As soon as the chair was upright, I anticipated to spend a while twiddling with the levers and dials to place it to my liking, however even that turned out to be simpler than I anticipated. A swap on the precise launched a pneumatic cylinder to boost the seat to the specified top, whereas one other on the left allowed me to slip the seat base forwards and backwards. Each went again into place once I was happy and allow them to go.

It is all fairly customary, however what stunned me probably the most was the lumbar help and again. The lumbar module in the back of the chair has a big dial and two easy-to-grab handles, each of which I may attain whereas sitting within the chair. Knobs let you transfer the lumbar help greater or decrease in your again, and a dial pushes the help ahead or backward.
On the similar time, the again has two modes. You may both pull the swap alongside the left aspect of the seat to lock the again, or push it to freely tilt your entire seat again. And once I say the entire seat, I imply the bottom and every thing. Whereas the seat again can recline additional whatever the base, the underside of the seat reclines largely with the again, making reclining extraordinarily comfy.
A dial beneath the precise aspect of the chair base controls how a lot resistance the chair supplies, and it is surprisingly robust. I often favor to maintain my chair locked as I tend to slouch, however with the excessive resistance I used to be in a position to get sufficient rebound from the chair to recline with out shedding help.
Up In Arms
More often than not, I do not actually care in regards to the armrests of workplace chairs. They’re comfy (ha) to sit down on the again, however they both get in the best way or cannot be helpful for the way I sit within the chair. However the Fujin Professional armrests are so versatile that I actually benefited from them.
The armrests could be adjusted in 4 methods. A swap on the surface means that you can modify their top, and a button on the within means that you can transfer them left or proper. If these have been all of the armrest settings, that might most likely be sufficient.
