Good quality all around.Honestly for the amount of money for some of these other sim rigs cost om not sure you could ask for more. The only thing is I wish they would just include would be a second mount bracket for the shifter so it could be easy to also use as a flight sim rig. They do have a separate package that fixes this but it’s an extra 100 dollars. I have only used it for about 3 hours and I find I need a small pillow for lower back support but that’s an easy fix. Overall recommend it’s built to last as far as I can tell. It is quite heavy especially once the wheel and pedals are on it so just be prepared for that. Includes the mounting bolts for my logitech as well.

Good with a few modifications!This a a great option that won’t break the bank . However the seat needs some things to make it more sturdy and comfy . I added a couple cam lock straps to prevent it from flexing pick them up at any hardware store cheap…This really makes the seat stiff ! Zero flex ,and also a quality seat cushion and lumbar support. This sruff made all the difference! Also while it is foldable, is easier to leave it set up ! Overall for the money it’s a great rig as a dedicated place to mount your wheel and pedals and feel like your driving a race car . Just expect to do some tweaking !

Can’t be beat for the price.I did some research before I bought this. I’m using it with the logitech G29 and PS5. So far I’m very impressed the build quality is solid the sturdiness is good. For those who said there was some wobble may need to adjust the strap tighter with the cross bar open then shut it. I’m 5-11 240lbs and I feel it supports me perfectly. Im a built like a linebacker and it holds me no problem. 2 things I want to mention . U may need a pillow to use for ur lower back cause it slouches a little. I use a couch pillow and it works great. Also make sure u tighten the adjusting mechanisms on the left and right real good before u lock in the tabs or it will collapse when u sit in it lol. I don’t feel a desire at all to upgrade or see myself needing to upgrade in the future. It also can fold up super compactly if u want . Although I have the space to only need to fold up pedal section and it sits perfectly in my dedicated spot for storage.

Easy to assemble, solid, does not pack up super small/convenientlyThis seat is surprisingly rigid and solid when built properly and surprisingly easy to adjust/fold away for storage (with wheel, pedals, shifter etc. attached!). I thought this would be a major convenience and space saver, but this is my first racing sim seat – in reality, if you have the space and interest in a sim seat setup, you should basically assume that it will be a dedicated piece of furniture. Once folded you might be able to store it in a closet, but you won’t necessarily stack anything on top of it, for example, and the sq. footage/footprint is still basically the same minus the little part holding the pedals. Unless you unbolted all the accessories and the wheel, etc. it won’t be something you slide in a cubby type space etc. and removing all of that’s only a few steps removed from completely disassembling the thing.So all in all, it’s absolutely great and I love it. It does exactly as advertised and is solid. However, now that I know what’s detailed above I may have just invested more in a completely solid setup from Next Level Racing – the caveat to that however, is this model is much cheaper! So I’m not upset in that regard, just keep in mind that it is barely any more ‘stowable’ than a completely rigid/solid setup.NOTE: My bag of screws came with a tiny tear allowing all the small screws to roll around inside the box – thankfully I checked before freaking out and calling support! The larger bolts were still in the bag so I really thought I was going crazy looking at the very clear and accurate instructions. Something to keep in mind for any buyers as well as the manufacturer!

Love this chairI’m new to the SIM racing world and knew the girlfriend wouldn’t go for a full setup in the living room, which incidentally is where my PS5 is.I didn’t really think I’d be getting much, but this product is ROCK SOLID and exceeded my expectations. I am a tall guy, so I was wondering how the adjustments would be – and though they could be better … there is a wide range of adjustability.My issue, is that to be 100% comfortable, I would need the pedal base to scoot out just a little bit more. At present they stop at the end where the bar curves.My next issue was that the seat is max level uncomfortable anywhere past 2 hours. I had to buy a separate memory foam cushion on Amazon and WOAH what a world of difference. It is a MUST have for this chair.Design and functionality – I love that the rig is so solid when its in use. I am able to fold up the foot pedal portion up to the rest of the rig, and by using a velcro strap can secure it and slide it into a more convenient spot in the living room out of the way.My steering wheel stays right in place, the strap is a neat idea – but definitely follow the instructions and use the included (larger) strap to secure the rig at the base front to back. This will add support.Also ensure the little levers are flipped into place at the rear of the chair so that the strap to the left of the driver is not bearing all the load. It’s easy for those levers to get flipped out of place.Overall I am very happy with this purchase, as it is my first. I can see things I would want out of my next rig, but for now this is awesome. Definitely enhanced my gaming experience a ton.

Probably the best option for a low budget CockpitOverall i’m pretty happy with this “cockpit” I Just recently picked up a Logitech G29 to play Gran Turismo and a few other racing games with my kids. I was trying to stay away from the whole cockpit thing and dumping a ton of money into this but trying to play at my desk just wasnt working. After a lot of research and reviews I decided to give the GT Lite a shot. It is way more sturdy than I thought it was going to be. I am 6’2 275lbs and I fit in it comfortably for the most part. I ended up adding a headpillow and lumbar pillow that came from a gaming chair I no longer use and it helped a lot. I really liked the fact that it folded up which was another reason I chose this one. I have a nice spot in our game room that I can put this in when not in use. I’ve only experienced 2 negatives thus far, 1 being a bigger guy my right thigh digs into the bars a bit (which im assuming will be easily fixed if I get some foam or something to pad the bar with) and 2 it can be a little hard to get up out of the chair. This could be the way I have it set up. I have it at the default setup so it sits a little low to the ground and I dont want to step on the brackets that hold the pedals so it can be difficult to get up after playing for a while. Im also worried to put too much pressure on the frame or chair as it is nylon/mesh and im worried it will rip. BOTH negatives are more than likely going to be individual preference and not a negative in general, just my only issues with it. Otherwise, VERY happy with it.

New to sim racing on a budget. Not disappointed at all.For it being one of the cheapest cockpits I found it’s really good quality and the delivery was 2 days earlier than expected. Building it was fun too, if you enjoy that part as much as I do and for my tiny apartment the fold up feature is very useful and it has a nice weight and many adjustable features.

Very durableHandles my 230lbs without any hint of failure. Also has many was to adjust sitting position, which is why I got it, because I need hip replacement. Only comaint is that it sits too low. However I fixed this with back-end wooden support, see in my photos.

Comfort is keyDefinitely one of the more cost effective options, but after prolonged usage it does get uncomfortable.
