The EasySMX Big and Tall Gaming Chair offers good adjustability and comfort, but its lack of lumbar support may force buyers with back issues to consider other alternatives.

Product Snapshot

Overview

The EasySMX Big and Tall Gaming Chair is an entry-level pick first announced in 2020. Its 135° reclining angle gives it a significant edge over some of the best office chairs on the market, but it is pretty standard among the highest-rated gaming chairs. The EasySMX chair has a 350-pound weight capacity, and its design mimics that of a racing car seat with an integrated headrest and air vents on the backrest. The chair also features quiet 360° swivel nylon wheels and ships with both a headrest and lumbar pillow. Our Anda Seat Fnatic Edition review might be worth a look for another Big and Tall alternative.

Consensus

our Verdict

The EasySMX Big and Tall Gaming Chair is designed to offer gamers maximum comfort when gaming for extended periods. The chair has memory foam filling, plus a good range of adjustability as owners can significantly configure its seat height, armrests, and reclining angle.

The seat height has a 3” range of adjustment, and its 3D armrests are height adjustable by about 4”. The chair can recline all the way down to 135°, but its lack of precise lumbar support makes it a bit of a gamble for buyers with back issues. Still, it does ship with a headrest and lumbar pillow, and it also has a rocking function, which might come in handy when you want to relax and ruminate.

Reason to Buy

  • Good Ergonomics/Adjustability
    • The EasySMX Big and Tall excels for gamers. The chair allows for a wide range of adjustments, which is essential for comfort when gaming over long hours. The seat height is adjustable by 4”, and its armrests are also height adjustable by 4”.

    • It can also recline all the way down to 135°, and with 4” memory foam padding on its seat, it is also very comfortable.

  • High build quality
    • The EasySMX Big and Tall chair has outstanding build quality courtesy of its heavy-duty metal frame. As a result, it can sustain individuals weighing up to 350 lbs.

  • Large size
    • The EasySMX Big and Tall chair is relatively large, with a 21×23” seat and a 26×34” backrest.

Reason to Avoid

  • No dedicated lumbar support
    • The EasySMX chair doesn’t offer any lumbar support, so it isn’t ideal for users with back issues. However, it does ship with a lumbar pillow.

The EasySMX Big and Tall Gaming Chair ships with both a head pillow and a lumbar pillow, making it different from the Respawn 110 Gaming Chair, which doesn’t include any pillow. On the other hand, the Respawn 110 can recline up to 135°, giving it a slight edge over the EasySMX Gaming Chair, which can only recline up to 130°. If you’re interested in the 110, here’s our Respawn 110 Gaming Chair review, but if you’re not sure about how to pick right size gaming chair, that would be an excellent place to start.

The EasySMX Big and Tall Gaming Chair has a PU leather covering, which is different from the Herman Miller Mirra Chair, which has a mesh seat and backrest. Another difference is that while the EasySMX chair can recline up to 135°, the Herman Miller Chair can only recline up to 106.8𝆩. The former also has an integrated headerst which the latter does not, but owners will be able to adjust the seat depth on the Herman Miller Chair as opposed to the EasySMX chair. To learn more about the Herman Miller Chair, be sure to read our Herman Miller Mirra 2 review, but if you want a simpler alternative for home use, check out our Steelcase Karman review.

The EasySMX Big and Tall Chair-R-US misses out on a retractable footrest, which the EasySMX Ergonomic Chair-JH-US has. The two also have different weight capacities, as the former has a 350-lb weight limit, while the latter has a lower 300-lb limit, and finally, armrests on the former are more adjustable than those on the latter.
