The Razer Iskur Gaming Chair offers impressive adjustability options and top-tier comfort, but its integrated headrest is not adjustable.

Product Snapshot

Overview

Announced in 2020, the Razer Iskur Gaming Chair is a premium pick filled with high-density molded foam on its seat and backrest for supreme comfort. The chair has an impressive 300-pound weight limit, which is rare even among the best office chairs on the market. It also boasts an adjustable lumbar support system that is unique compared to what the best gaming chairs on the market have to offer, and it ships with a neck pillow for adequate neck support.

Its seat also has a waterfall design to facilitate good blood flow when seated for extended hours, and its racing seat design incorporates side bolsters on the backrest and seat for a good fit.

Consensus

our Verdict

Available in either a standard or extra large size, the Razer Iskur Gaming Chair stands out with its dynamic and adjustable lumbar support system and the high-density molded foam used to fill up its seat and backrest. These two aspects make the chair very comfortable, which is crucial for gamers who want to stay engaged over long periods. Regarding adjustability, owners can recline its backrest down to 139°, and its seat height can be configured by about 3.5”. The chair also allows for seat tilt adjustment and can be tilted up to 11°, and finally, its armrests are 4-way adjustable. Its dynamic lumbar support also dynamically adjusts to the seating position and has a lever that can be used to lock it in place.

Reason to Buy

  • Great adjustability and ergonomics
    • The Razer Iskur Gaming Chair offers good adjustability for comfort when gaming. Its seat height has a 3.5” range of adjustability, and its backrest reclines down to 139°. Its seat tilt maxes out at 11°, and its armrests are 4-way adjustable.

  • Adjustable lumbar support
    • The dynamic lumbar support system on the Razer Iskur adjusts according to the individual’s posture, and it can be set in place by a lever.

  • Sturdy build quality

Reason to Avoid

  • The Integrated headrest is not adjustable

While the Razer Iskur Gaming Chair is available in synthetic leather and fabric cover options, the Razer Fujin Pro exists as a mesh chair. The Iskur also has an integrated headrest, while the Fujin Pro has an independent one. However, if you don’t mind an alternative that doesn’t have a headrest, then you might be interested in our BestOffice Ergonomic Desk Chair review.

The Razer Iskur Gaming Chair has a more dynamic lumbar support system that can adjust to your sitting position, unlike the NeueChair Obsidian, which has fully adjustable lumbar support. Additionally, the Iskur Gaming Chair ships with an integrated headrest while the NeueChair Obsidian does not, and finally, the Iskur chair is available in synthetic leather or fabric, the NeueChair is only sold as a mesh chair. Check it out in our Neuechair Obsidian review.

Owners of the Razer Iskur can recline it all the way up to 139°, but this doesn’t match up to the Respawn 110 Gaming Chair, which reclines up to 155°. On the other hand, the Razer Iskur has a much more elaborate lumbar support system than the Respawn 110, making it the better pick for those needing back support. Finally, the Iskur has a slightly higher 286-pound weight capacity than the Respawn 110, which has a 275-pound weight limit. Here’s our Respawn 110 gaming chair review if you’re curious, but for an alternative with a higher 286-pound limit, check out our Andaseat Fnatic Edition review.
