SECRETLAB TITAN EVO 2022 1 YEAR REVIEW

It’s so confusing watching reviews of this chair

No follow up?
So I take it the problems weren't solved, even though your chair was still under warranty?

Im getting lower back pains anyone know the best settings i should use?

Too many issues for such an expensive product. Anyone has good gaming chair recommendations available in the UK?

Is this chair comfortable for someone suffering from neck pain ?

Since they updated to the evo I just think in a few years they are going to "upgrade" again and move away from the inconsistant pistons- too many moving parts.

Solid review. Thanks for doing this!

I've had the same staples chair since 2018, compared to previous chairs I've destroyed in a year or two. Like 2 years the fabric is ripped up from just creasing from me sitting in it long term.
Latest one is their gaming chair which has a flat seat. Love it. Now I was 260lbs for a long time, and more recently lost a ton of weight, down to under 220 as of the time of writing this. I was thinking of getting a new one. My chair creaks on rare occasison. Some screws have come slightly loose because I can't be bothered to tighten them. But i spent $100 on this chair. It baffles me you can spend $500 and get these kinds of creaks.

wow you would think as much as this chair cost it wouldn't have these minor issues. I was about to purchase one of these but not going to now, Thank you so much for this honest review !!

hey jacob, what is your opinion on the armrest? is this fixable?

That noise on the piston is the vibration of plastic touching the pivot. If his setting is lowest, removing the smaller plastic cylinder (or cutting a bit of height) might resolve the issue without exposing the piston much from dust.

That dust on your legs during the piston noise part is why the top is looking dirty. You only have to grab a white chair a few times to cause that. But if no one else is in the room using the chair….. you are grabbing the top. White is a tough choice.

I got tired of buying those cheap Amazon “big and tall” chairs that aren’t the most comfortable and end up crapping out after 1-2 years so I got me this titan evo xl. Absolutely love it, but also having problems.

Armrests aren’t very solid - they shake very easily and one time when I supported myself on the right one to get up, it slid all the way down which hurt my ego quite a bit but that’s beside the point.

For $600ish dollars I expect there to not be any kind of problems arising - especially not when I’ve only had the damn thing for 2 weeks

I really need a new chair, my current one is slowly falling apart. I'm actually shocked at the amount of issues Secretlab chairs have considering the price tag, I don't know how or why they're held in such high regard for producing mediocre products...

DON'T BUY IT THIS COMPANY SUCKS .

I've had one for 3 years. With the lumbar pillow, I love it. No noise. Lucky I guess. But I don't spend the time in it you do.

Absolutely not I was wanting one but my 100 Amazon chair has zero noise

Your 'news caster' cadence is extremely annoying.

I gotta agree with you on the colors of the Softweave. Black, Cookies & Cream, and then a slew of PASTELS? Really? I want Kryptek Typhon, or a nice royal blue. Maybe something in a rich burgundy. And for the love of God, tone down the branding the chair. Good review btw.

but isit better than my free wooden chair dou

Those noises don’t sound very “Titan” like. Perhaps the Secret Lab’s “Ghost” would be a more fitting name.

Debating if I want to drop $700+ on this right now. Including the padded arm rests

As somebody who stands at 193 cm according to my drivers license, i tried one of these my younger brother got and it immediately felt better than the $250 gaming chair i have at home

Plus, y'know, there's a batman variant, that's neat lol

A premium chair should not need constant attention due to noise it’s creating 🤷🏻‍♂️

This just convinced me to avoid this. Thanks!

What camera do you use bro

My biggest issue with office chairs, is it's always that cheap ass glued on leather that cracks in literally a few weeks. I like the NAPA leather option but it'll still probably be a cheap leather so was going to look at this clothe one. That's my biggest thing. I put a "Purple" Seat cushion on my chairs regardless because is just such an incredible product. A cushion that 5 years on is as firm and soft as day one. I really recommend checking those out for anyone who wants a good seat cushion for the truck, gaming chair or for travel

Have you tried the Lambo version???

I have a softweave Titan from 2019. And honestly its the best chair I've ever had. Still feels brand new, and my girlfriend even wants to steal it from me for her work lol.

Great, but anyway to get more than the $30 discount :-))) ??????

2020 had more issues

Still have my 2020 Evo, still looks brand new too, the only thing is that it feels a bit stiffer than before but definitely recommend one of these chairs, I swear I only paid like 350 for mine too, the prices skyrocketed

Seen a vid yesterday that showed some pretty crappy stitching and some parts not lining up properly. Very shitty manufacturers

I just bought this chair and if you still have that chair I would definitely recommend going through and tightening the blots again and oiling that piston with wd-40 maybe it is because it dried out or something. Great video man. You're killin it!!!!

I was about to purchase this chair, but now, it is a HARD STOP NO... For the price tag this chair comes with, there should be no issues like this - poor workmanship has no place in my expenses, ever...

i never had the sound problems on my 1 year old 2021

600 eu btw kekw. I can add 200 eu and get a steel case that will easily last 10 years. Keep buying bullshit marketing gaming chairs i guess.

Was about to buy one but it looks like it another over price chair.

Is there a gaming chair that exist which isn’t wack? I’m looking for something long lasting and ergonomically satisfying.

could be all the dust build up making all the sounds... clearly haven't cleaned your chair around the piston....

what a great voice, love listening! keep up the great content!

do wish he had a normal office chair at the same price to compare it with. for +500 that's a lot of problems in one year. and i could probably use it more than 6 hours a day.

Thing is, my friend has these EXACT same issues with his titan after a year as well. That shows it’s not a 1 in a million case. The fact that I had a crap $150 “gaming” chair for over a year and never experienced any of these issues with it is crazy. For the price that’s insane to deal with

I have my evo 2022 for almost a year, had piston noise, contacted support and they send me a new piston without any questions, great chair for great price and support

I did consider getting Titan Evo 22 XL for me but after watching this and reading the comments I’m more and more sure that getting HM Logitech Embody will be a better option in many aspects..

I feel like the piston squeaking could be fixed with just a little wd40 or crc

Just grease the piston…

I don’t know. The same people who are talking smack about this chair are the same people who couldn’t afford it in the first place. And are trying to justify why it’s not worth it because they couldn’t afford to buy one in the first place.

I got an Omega 2020 PU version and it is still in mint condition, bear in mind I have only wiped it twice with a cleaner. Feels like their quality went down...
