Corsair T3 Rush Fabric Gaming Chair (2023) – Racing-Inspired Design – Soft Fabric Exterior – Padded Neck Cushion – Memory Foam Lumbar Support – Adjustable Seat Height – Charcoal

Awesome chair
For the money this is a great chair. I have been gaming or at my desk much more often over the past year, and decided it was worth investing in a more comfortable chair than my 10 year old office depot chair. most of the materials used seem to be good quality, although there are cheaper plastics used in the casters and around the base. All the materials you touch are comfortable, the neck and lumbar pillows are very comfortable. I would like to see higher quality casters, and the tilt locking mechanism doesn’t seem to work that well, but the height and back adjustments work well. The quirks of this chair are okay with me considering it is less than half the price of a secret lab. not to mention it looks great at my neutral tone desk space. install was very simple, took me maybe 30 minutes by myself. overall great value buy.

Pretty nice chair, but bad squeak
This is my first “gaming chair”, and I like it overall. Like other reviewers, I thought the seat cushion was hard at first too, but I must have gotten used to it because it doesn’t bother me at all anymore and I find it perfectly comfortable. The biggest problem I’ve had is it creaks and squeaks badly when I even slightly move around on it- I tried loosening and tightening the bolts to different degrees, but the problem is coming from elsewhere. Also, although you can recline the chair’s back, there is no way to lock it into a reclined position- on a chair with wheels that moves when you push back on it, that doesn’t make a lot of sense (if there is a way to lock it in position that I can’t figure out, please let me know). And the instructions that came with the chair seemed to be from an earlier model, which made assembling it unnecessarily confusing and annoying.But I still like the chair very much overall- it’s comfortable since I got used to it, and it looks great. I think it would suit most people’s needs, as long as they aren’t really big. Just hope yours doesn’t squeak like mine does.

Built with the same junky baeplate everyone else sells. Already creaking after 2 DAYS!
I’ve used a lot of the budget task chairs available here on Amazon, and for the most part they offer the same experience; a few weeks of good service, followed by a few months of squeaky wobbliness, and before the year is even over there is finally failure as the shoddy chair basically falls apart from normal use.This Corsair T3 Rush chair is the first name brand chair I’ve gotten. It’s $350 after tax, compared to the $70-$100 price tags on the cheaper task chairs, so I’m expecting a massive spike in quality. The main draw for me was that it has an all steel skeleton, which is a huge upgrade from the rickety plastic and wood on the cheapo chairs.=====[UPDATE 7/10/24][TOO LONG, DIDN’T READ]After ONLY 2 DAYS of VERY LIGHT use the chair IS ALREADY CREAKING LOUDLY!The baseplate is the same crappy thin metal part you see on every budget chair ever and is prone to failure. The generic baseplate also lets you recline by sliding a bolt in/out of position. The bolt is not only redundant in this case because the seat already has its own recline function, but it’s also a flimsy, skinny piece of metal that only moves a few millimeters and introduces a weak point to the chair.While the seat portion of this chair is solid, the crappy baseplate quickly becomes the source of squeaking and wobbliness, and eventually catastrophic failure, as this only gets worse over time. (I added a picture of exactly what happens.)I don’t blame Corsair for a crappy baseplate design that’s been around since the beginning of office chairs. I do feel ripped off though that they use it in their own chairs and still advertise the chair like it’s something amazing. It’s not. It’s junk, and it’s all because of the baseplate.====[OVERVIEW]Obviously the T3 is a gaming chair, who else but a gamer would think a race car seat would be suitable for home use lol.It’s not a bad idea though, the padding is shaped to keep your body stable and facing forward where all the gaming action is. It has adjustable arms and height and the usual swivel+recline functions.I don’t expect people to do a lot of fidgeting in this chair, the seat overall is on the narrower side and the padding on the sides aggressively hugs your body to keep your torso rigid.Building it isn’t difficult, but be advised there are no instructions included. You have to scan a QR code on the box that takes you to a video guide or a PDF guide, and neither is for this chair model specifically (I think they’re for an older version). The screws are different, the tools are different, etc.Also, one of the screw holes used to attach the seat is significantly off-center, it’s bad enough that the screw there won’t go in all the way. Not a great start.[NOT FOR FULL-FIGURED GAMERS]This is not a chair designed for fat or muscular people. If you have lovehandles or beefy lat muscles, the side padding won’t let you sink into the chair all the way, it’s very uncomfortable. You can mitigate this by using the included lumbar and neck pads though, because they prop you up farther away from the back. The lumbar pad alone stopped me from immediately returning the chair. I think it’ll be fine if I can break in the side padding on the chair so it isn’t so suffocating.(Alternately, try the T100 or T200 chairs instead, they’re supposed to be roomier than this T3 chair. Or lose some weight. *shrug*)[BASEPLATE BLUES]The only part of this chair that is a big improvement over budget chairs is the seat itself. It’s sturdy and supportive. The seat has it’s own lever independent of the baseplate to recline the back all the way down or all the way upright. The seat feels stiffer than the cheap ones I’ve used, and it’s a great feeling (if you fit in it, anyway). HOWEVER…The baseplate this chair uses is no different from the generic baseplates I’ve seen a hundred times before on the cheaper chairs. These baseplates suck, inevitably they fail to lock into the upright position and they start to crack around the area where the gas cylinder connects to it, just from normal use. They need reinforcement there. Also, even though the chair assembly is rigid and sturdy, the cheap baseplate introduces extra wobble and creaks.For example, the lever to recline the back of the seat is smooth and precise, but because the baseplate has wobble you will always recline a few degrees more than intended, or even tilt slightly to the sides. That’s the part I can’t stand, it takes me right back to unhappy times using the crappy chairs, only more aggravating because I spent $350 for the same wobble and creaky haunted house noises.[DIRTY SEAT]To top it off, I got the white/gray color version and IT WAS DIRTY. Not only does the fabric on the chair have smudges and stuff making the white parts look off, but even the bubble wrap that protects the parts is dingy yellow, like it has been exposed to smoke or something.Come on peeps, is this really what $350 gets us? Did I get a dud? I’d settle for a partial refund so I can at least steam clean this thing.

Excellent Quality
If you’ve put a chair together in the past it’s super easy to assemble the quality is excellent and for the price I couldn’t be more happy with my choice.

“La silla Corsair T3 es una de las mejores compras que he hecho para mi espacio de trabajo. Desde el momento en que me senté, noté la diferencia en comodidad. Tiene un diseño ergonómico con un buen soporte lumbar, lo que es ideal para largas horas frente al computador. Los cojines de apoyo en la cabeza y la zona lumbar se pueden ajustar, lo que me permitió encontrar la posición perfecta para mi espalda.El material es de alta calidad, con un acabado en tela suave y resistente, que no solo se ve bien, sino que también es cómodo durante todo el día. Además, el asiento es bastante amplio y se siente acolchonado, sin ser demasiado blando. El respaldo reclinable hasta 180 grados es un gran plus, ya que te permite descansar completamente si es necesario, lo cual es perfecto para relajarse entre sesiones de trabajo.El mecanismo de ajuste es fluido y fácil de usar, tanto para la altura como para los descansabrazos, que también se pueden ajustar en varias direcciones. Las ruedas son bastante suaves y permiten mover la silla sin esfuerzo, incluso en superficies duras.Lo único que me gustaría que mejorara es el tamaño de las ruedas para personas más altas o con mayor peso, ya que en superficies más suaves como alfombra, pueden necesitar un poco más de esfuerzo. A pesar de esto, sigue siendo una silla muy estable y bien construida.En general, la Corsair T3 es una silla cómoda, bien diseñada y con una excelente relación calidad-precio, perfecta para quienes pasan muchas horas en la computadora, ya sea trabajando o jugando. La recomiendo completamente si buscas una silla que ofrezca buen soporte y comodidad durante todo el día.”

I am 5’10 165 pounds and I fit just right in this chair. If I were any bigger I don’t think it would be as comfortable. The side bolsters are like that of a race car, very tall and tight against you. The seat is narrow. The cushions are firm but not overly. The fabric is soft and feels durable. Every parts of this chair are adjustable in many positions. It was a breeze to put together. It took me less than 15 mins from unpacking to sitting in it.

En buenas condiciones, muy cómodo y un producto increíble. Y agradezco al vendedor
