on to the review so real quick and to see gaming chairs spacious and supportive AndaSeat design
here the Kaiser Frontier XL black chair number part number UPC and along the side basically
the same thing and along
this side the same thing as well and of course the FedEx label
which the FedEx guy actually did a great job handling this chair the Box does not have any
handles so I'm surprised the box came in such great shape all right so along the top and this
is a again a tremendous box it weighs 70 pounds and it just has a very long odd shape so
there is no real good way to hold on to it so first off we have the
metal wheel base covered up and all this foam kind of nice the
way they did it so it fee
ls nice along the bottom here so the back looks really nice at least in
the baggie so the chair or the back rest really nice with the end of seat right up here the embroidery looks really nice and it feels
really nice with the leatherette material and the nice and soft M neck pillow feels good and that's where you're going to
be snapping it in to the headrest then over here we have the XL lumbar
pillow also that leather material nice and foamy and unlike other pillows that I've
felt like th
is it doesn't feel bulgy it it's a nice size it might actually
work out pretty well I typically don't use these here's the embroidery
but this might actually work out well here's one of the two arm rests
this would be the left arm rest and it feels nice feels sturdy not incredibly soft but not solid and
you can see that there's the end of seat and that'll be the same thing
over here just the other side and then here we have the seat with the easy rests on the side
for the back rest to just
slide it in this is pretty awesome and
we'll go over that in a second all right and a few more things
this is the accessory box okay here they have the user's manual which has how to build it and everything but
we're going to go over that in this video and then that's actually kind of nice these
are all the screws the wrenches and all that good stuff and a safety cap I don't know what
that's about then here we have the casters five of these look like racing wheels these would be the magnet
ic side covers
for those metal pieces I was showing you earlier to slide the chair into
this is the Piston dust cover here is the class four piston and the Full Tilt mechanism that is
actually also sticking out of the box all right here's where you can adjust the
rocking and then unlock and lock the Tilt mechanism and raise and lower the seat all that
good stuff here and then over here they tell you everything it does left to adjust height push
into tilt lock push out to tilt release now w
ith all that out of the way let's start building
it so we're going to start with the wheels or the casters we're going to go ahead and install it
into the metal wheelbase so for that just grab this piece here and just push it right into here
actually it goes in incredibly easy I'm going to repeat that five times so I'm just going to skip
ahead then afterwards we'll going to flip it over and then on here we'll install the piston then
we'll set this aside for now along the side of the back re
st we'll have these screws right over
here this is where we're going to slide the seat into now we'll just need to use this wrench
over here for that so just pop it in here and just spin it out it's not put in very
deeply so thankfully it comes out quickly and now we'll do the same on the other side put this aside for now and now we'll grab
the seat and lay it down and now we're going to go ahead and install the armrests
so we laid down the seat flat on the table and we're going to want to
install all
four of these screws right through here and we're going to be using the M8 screws for
that so we'll just slide this right into here and we'll use our fingertips first just
to establish some pilot screws and these are adjustable so you can always slide them in or
out after you build it then we'll use this again all right and when we're done with that we'll
just do the other side now this other side is going to be the exact same process so
I'm going to save you and skip this part
so yeah same thing on the right side of the
chair they have this piece right over here that is going to slide into the back
rest the right one doesn't move it's stuck because of the lever here and we want to
keep it that way just for now the other side you can move however you'd like so what we're
going to do is we're going to bring in the back rest you'll notice on the right side there's a
railing system that's going to fit right over here easy enough right now we'll just
go ahead and us
e those M8 screws pile it first and a pilot over here as well and then we'll go
ahead and screw them in I'll do the bottom one first it helps align the top one and with
that in there this should go in smoothly now while I was doing this I'm holding the
headrest and pulling it towards this side and once they're in nice and tight then we can use the magnetic siding over here that looks a lot nicer than the exposed screws now
on the other side we have to line this up a little bit and the same w
ay I pushed towards the left
we push towards the right on the top the headrest just to get this to go in correctly through the
pilot screw again make sure we're in there nicely top one is the most difficult now we'll do the
bottom one first again to get everything lined up now we'll screw in the top one
that's going in so much easier now and then we'll put this in as well coming back around to the other side
now that everything is installed we'll remove this red screw right over here then w
e'll install
that safety cap into that hole now you don't have to match it to make the lines
match but I think that looks a little bit nicer with the bottom of the chair facing upwards we're
going to go ahead and attach the Tilt mechanism just make sure this front is at the very
front where your feet would sit down here and then or screw it in pilot hole first or pilot screw then we'll do the same thing for
all the other three so I had to move it up a little bit that just goes to show you d
on't
screw it in all the way till all four are in now with all four screwed in
I recommend holding this up screw this one in all the way the top right hand
corner one make sure it's nice and tight now still holding this up now we'll screw in
this bottom left hand side one nice and tight now with those two screwed in now
we can go ahead and screw these in and now putting the dust cover over the
Piston over here we're going to go ahead and push this right into this hole
push this piston rig
ht into the hole all right now we're going to flip her over so
make sure when you're bringing down the chair that you're holding onto that metal base
because it's not attached there well yet so first we'll install the XR lumbar pillow that's it and then we'll install the neck
pillow it would just undo these straps slide them in one at a time over here and then just snap it in right over here now you have your neck rest right here so
now sitting on it for the very first time okay it is a bit
weird it's more of a bucket seat
which is not a bad thing at all a bucket seat in the sense that when you sit in here you kind of
sink in towards the back and your legs kind of raise up over here so it's not perfectly flat and
then of course you have the wings right over here they kind of hold your thighs in place it's just
not what I'm used to and the armrests come to the perfect height so that's great and of course
you saw me raise it and I'll go over that in one sec now the material is p
remium PVC leather
and it feels nice it doesn't feel cheap at all I like it and the frame is 100 titanium steel
as I mentioned before the wheelbase is metal it could take up to 330 pounds and 6.5 feet from out
here to out here where your feet would dangle out from it is 17 and a half inches from here to here
your thighs out here would be six about 17 inches from the top of the wing to the other Wing the
part that would kind of embrace your legs would be 19 inches and then the outer part wou
ld be 23
inches right over here where your butt would sit is 15 inches and you can see over here there
aren't any Wings to hold your butt in so if you're a little bit wider that's okay now where your back
would sit right over here from the inner side to the inner side is almost 13 inches then from the
outer Wing to the other Wing right over here the inner sides is 16 inches this part is going to
embrace your sides and then from the outside is 21 inches at its lowest it's about 14 inches tal
l
then bringing it around over here we'll go ahead and raise it to its highest by pulling this
up and then measuring at its highest is about 18 inches tall I'm actually
pretty comfortable at its lowest now saying that I'm only 5'6 the lowest it says
it goes is five seven but it still works perfectly fine for me the highest again it goes is 6.57 feet
so it's got a wide range now the part I don't like from the base of the seat up to where your neck
would be right here the center of this pill
ow is about 23 and a half inches from the very bottom
it's 21 inches now I'm 5'6 and it hits just below my neck so it's not very comfortable I have to
take it out regardless of that I don't ever use these pillows I don't find them to be beneficial
the length of the back rest from the very bottom to the top is 34 inches because of the bucket
seat the way it kind of slides in rather than being flat I can't easily sit like this I mean I
can but my legs aren't both going to be perfectly flat li
ke this and that's where it's most
comfortable but as you can see I can still sit like this some people like to completely recline
in their chairs and feel totally safe in it maybe even go to sleep I don't know that I could do
that but I'll try it this chair goes 160 degrees as far back as it goes it feels
comfortable and I'll put my feet up crisscross like I like to and so that you can
see that I'm not holding my feet anywhere and then I'm moving around so you can see
nothing's being held
up or down and it feels comfortable I like it I feel good in it
and then when you're done just come back up and it'll sit you right back up you might have
to adjust the little tiny bit but yeah it feels good the neck rest is I mean it's good it's right
there but it's not really at my neck it's below it so I have to raise it so that it feels a little
bit more comfortable and again I'm five six so I don't know about if you're higher or not all
that's going to work for you the lumbar pillow b
eing that it's not incredibly thick and the
foam is not incredibly rigid feels very nice because it doesn't push you forward in your chair
it only maybe pushes you a little teeny tiny bit but still you're completely in the chair and
it feels just about right now not to be outdone like many chairs this does have a 4D armrest so
pushing this button here you can do the typical twisting the armrest and then
pressing that same button forward back and forward and then this little latch right
ove
r here press it and then raise it or lower it and then holding the inside one over here
you can have your armrests go out and in out and in using that same little lever that we
use to raise and lower the seat we pull it out and then we can tilt the chair when I first had to
start tilting it didn't Tilt at all I had to turn the knob completely so that it can start tilting
now it tilts pretty well it's not as smooth as I would like it but still it does tilt now typically
you would never catch
me in a bucket seat I just don't find them comfortable at all and I like
to cross my legs that little wing on the side they typically don't feel very well but this chair
unlike other bucket seats I've sat in I feel like I can sit in this one for a very long period of
time during this review I've been sitting on it now what for about an hour and so far everything
still feels great I've been bouncing on it tilting it putting it through a little bit more wear
and tear than you would normally
put it through and it feels nice the chair is priced relatively
reasonable for what it is I'm not going to State the price because they fluctuate often you
can check in my Global Amazon affiliate link down below all of the material in the chair
feels incredibly nice the PVC leather the arm rest the pillows that lumbar pillow actually
is growing on me more and more I really do like it the casters aren't incredibly loose you're
not going to push them and then Glide for about 16 feet you might
push them and glide for about
a foot but aside from that they do still feel nice and then always you could change them if
you wanted to this is day number two with this chair and yesterday I was editing for hours in
this chair and today I've edited for hours this video as well in this chair and I will say it
is incredibly comfortable I'm not a bucket seat fan but I will say the seat itself is awesome
the best bucket seat I've ever sat in now with that because it is a bucket seat the seat i
sn't
perfectly flat it's like this so your feet kind of hang out your back is going to be like this so
you could see you're going to have a little bit of an angle that you have to sit like this and
to me that's not very comfortable you may like that that's with or without the lumbar pillow I
always had to lean a little bit forward I like to sit back in my chair and for that I like to have
my chair perfectly straight up and because I like to cross my feet like that I like a flat chair
that
aside this chair is still very comfortable if you like bucket racing seat chairs you're
going to love this chair and all the materials and everything in this chair are top notch the
PVC leather feels great the wheels Glide nicely not too much maybe too little the arm rests
feel nice as well with the 4D and even just the texture of it everything about this chair is
nice again the back and the headrest not big of a fan on that but let me know what you think down
