The IKEA gaming chair

Gaming chairs are horrific. They’re the candy-colored, Rick and Morty sticker-covered Honda Civics of furniture, providing as much subtlety to your home decor as those cars’ rattling bass offers a quiet side street. Nearly every gaming chair I’ve ever seen has given me a migraine, so when IKEA announced it was releasing a gaming line late last year, I was excited. Spending $300 on a gaming chair isn’t all that farfetched when you look at other ass rests in the industry, but at least these ones look vaguely like they could be from the mind of Herman Miller. And even when IKEA leans a little into the bold gamer colors like this gray and red option, they manage to do it with style.
