Most gaming chairs are covered in PU leather, which wipes clean but can feel warm and sticky in a heated room and tends to crack and peel with age. Fabric and soft-weave covers are the alternative. They breathe better and do not peel, though they need a bit more care with spills. This guide compares six fabric gaming chairs from Corsair, Razer, Trust, Genesis and Arozzi. As well as the cover, it looks at the things that decide whether a gaming chair works at a desk: how many ways the armrests adjust, how the lumbar support is provided, the recline range and the maximum load. All details come from the makers' listings. Where a listing does not state something, such as a recline angle or load rating, we say so rather than fill the gap.

## Products
