very good review. I use it with my Fanatec. I flipped the wheel plate and used cable ties for the pedals. Because it's a deck chair it really moulds to your shape so is super comfortable. 9.5 out of 10.
I just recently purchased and received one of these. I have to say this is wonderful for someone with a small living space because the ability for it to fold up while the pedals and wheel remains attached, is amazing. One thing I will say is that if you have a wider frame (hips) you may find it a bit uncomfortable at first but you will eventually mold into it.

I am convinced. I’ve been doing lots of research before making any big purchases on getting into racing sim and I think I’ve found the right game and setup to buy, thanks
Nice, hopefully I helped. It's definitely worth researching and not going too crazy initially, but equally some really cheap equipment can ruin the experience. Enjoy!
Thanks for the review! Your video sold me on it. Can’t wait to still drive terribly and get P20 every race with a wheel and chair versus just the controller lol.
Could you make a video about a good budget setup overall? Including a wheel and shifter and pedals? Your input would be super helpful. Thanks man great video
If you looking budget setup with all of this you should check Logitech ones. Its cheapest way but not the best. Better than Logitech wheels is Thrustmaster even TMX but if you want clutch you need to buy TMX pro, if you want shifter you need to buy Th8a... And its not cheap any more... Cheapest setup with wheel is Wheel stand pro + Logitech, thats all...
I have had a Playseat Challenge for about a year. I find it is a great solution for a rig that I need to be able to move out of the way from time to time. Much more solid and much more comfortable than most people would think on first viewing. I was was super lucky and got one for $100 Cdn (around 70 Euro) at a local store, but my decision was made not on price, but on sitting in one for the first time.
For smaller people like me, just put a small pillow in the seat. I also use the seat for non racing games. Just clap the wheel aside and you have a great fps seat.
I love this chair, I got it second-hand hence the green (prefer the blue and black). Seeing as I sit down all day I wanted something decent and this has been great so far. Not had it long, mind.
It seems to be but it really depends how rough you are. There are mods that can be done to improve rigidity and longevity if concerned or something breaks!
It should be standard but then maybe the product was adjusted since this video. You could probably get a longer replacement on Amazon for a few quid although that's not ideal.
My current shitty setup have an issue where I get aching ankle from hovering the pedals and doing general footwork for long period of time. I need some help as I am wondering whether a budget solution like this can fix it or not. But then again I am a 165cm tall midget (5'5" for freedom unit) so this might not fit me at all.
If you're using an upright chair as I was before this it will help. You could actually put something under the pedal attachment to angle it to further help the issue but personally I've not needed to although I'm not the same height.
Nice racing seat, looks absolutely worth the price. Btw, you are sitting in a Grand Cherokee SRT (not a Trackhawk), and i don't think it's a 2020 one, it's a bit older.
@@Unknown72027 You mean the metal clips that clamp round the bars on the seat? There are rubber inserts you can use, they stop the clamps from twisting under weight.
@@ATribeCalledCars yeah I used big and small didn’t work so I did small and small now I can’t in tight the thing the engendering is horrible how easy it breaks
Yeah, the headrest is a bit too close or angled for my taste. But overall it's a great combination with a budget steering wheel. I drove hundreds of hours in Forza 7 on my XBOX in front of a 55" TV... ;-) Btw: rock solid driving skills! Get it? Rock. Solid.^_^
Yeah that's the only issue I have with mine, I race exclusively in VR and the back of the head strap often hits the headrest, especially when looking up. I could probably stick a thin pillow behind my back, but I find the seat surprising comfortable on its own.
"the steering wheel plate can be adjusted to be nearer or closer" Great review! But thos are technically the same thing :) I'm being a pedant of course ...but I've just got a playseat challenge "actifit" version and only thought the wheel plate tilted angle and didn't know it could alter distance too ( which wasn't quite covered how in your video but I'm gonna try see how to do it on my own)
Good spot, I didn't even notice that one! I can't remember about the adjustment, but if I wasn't imagining it I'm sure it's easy to work out. Good luck!
Great review, I am planning to get a tgt2 with T-LCM but a bit worried that the pedals frame won’t be able to stay in position under heavy braking. How is your experiences using T-LCM?
They stay in position for me but I am not particularly stampy. Of course, you could make some sort of strut or another more permanent solution than the twisty system for keeping things locked in place.
For this price I recommend searching on the second hand market where you can find good setups. I got a really strong frame for 90 euro and bought a Sparco seat for 180 euro
That's a good tip if you're lucky, although I couldn't even find this seat or anything cheap in the UK a few months ago. Plus the folding nature will be useful to some, but then a good metal setup should, in theory, be more rigid.
Just the strap, feels enough for me but perhaps I'd be tempted to try another solution if I was able to buy it (not really got much time for DIY these days).
Don't know if you care after 6 months, but the pedals are held in place by being held down by the strap to some foam which gives more than enough friction for it to ever move back. Also there is a stopper in the front which keeps it from going forwards when braking. I for one can't press the pedals hard enough to move them even an inch.
Beware the velcro straps will loose grip and the chair WILL collapse depending on your weight. I am 14.5 stone. I have one of these and they're not very strong. Quite Flimsy, the pedals also need a velcro strap to hold them in place. I also had to buy/make two additional velcro and canvas straps to hold the bottom legs to stop them splitting appart. I'm currently looking at alternatives... nice idea and does fold quite well but it does wobble a bit and never feels as if you can throw your wheel around. IF you can pickup one cheap 2nd hand I'd recomend you do rather than fork out full price.
@@ATribeCalledCars thank you! have bought it too a few days ago, and i´m very hyped by it! for that money a really good seat. but if your over 80kg i think youve got problems :-)
I've never looked, but the number of wheels that work with SnowRunner is limited so that helps narrow down choices. As for the seat, would probably be cool to go to a scrapheap and find a used truck seat and stick it on some metal poles. Voila.
Yeah, there is a mount for that too. The handbrake in the video does sequential shifting too so it's versatile, although not so good if you want to shift and handbrake. But mounts work on both sides of the chair.
Thanks for the review. Have been trying to find some info on the different configurations in terms of the strap lengths but couldn’t find anything. Any info on this?
@@ATribeCalledCars not exactly sure of the correct terminology as mine is still in the mail! The arm rest straps with the lines on them. As I understand it this adjust height etc? Would 3-4 lines be more of a GT style? Sounds like I need to learn and play around with the other adjustments you have mentioned.
@@rover1374 Ahhh yeah so those are partly for height and for the angle you sit at. Ideally you want your arms at around 90 degrees when holding the wheel for better posture, especially if you play a lot. The extending poles on the pedals are more for height adjustment as you can bring the pedals closer or further.
@@ATribeCalledCars makes sense. I just picked up a set of TLCM load cells as well so using those will be interesting. I read that 5 stripes on the arm straps Is more F1 and 3 is more GT. I guess I will just play around and see what works.
I do not care about a seat thingy. Despite being a massive car nerd. Heck, I barely bother using a wheel, Xbox controller is fine for me. Still watched the whole video though. Not sure I’d ever bother with that sort of outlay in both money, and time. But hey, another good video 👍🏻
Thanks Stuart. I was the controller type until recently so totally get it. It's an extra layer of hassle sometimes, but I also find the whole driving in real life versus games interesting so here we are. A review of a seat. My mum and dad must be proud.
Yes as long as you have them on different sides, gets a bit cosy otherwise. Plus you'll need two mounting systems. I'm tempted to add a proper shifter myself and use the TSS handbrake for the handbrake, not sequential shifts.
I've seen a few different types. Anything metal with rubber to help the clamp grip will do. I think the one I used is in the video description. Not the cheapest solution but reliable.
@@ATribeCalledCars hi, it seems there is no link to the mount, Can you add a link below? update: Found it, lowdown shifter....will try order it! :) it seems very nice!!
I’ve made wooden P1 clone with less than half price of this. Some pro simracers change very good rigs because they want more stable constructions. Of course this seat is better than nothing but seriosly if you have time and some skills build your own rig even from wood.
@@ATribeCalledCars I have a very small apartment, so I keep the simulator in the corridor. When I want to play, I can easily take the rig to the living room because I've installed wheels under them. If I find more time I will share video about this, maybe it will be helpful for someone 😃
I have this thing and I don’t think it’s worth it. The materials around the back started ripping and I’m only 180 pounds. Also seat really hurts your thigh as it’s basically a glorified lawn chair. Would not recommend.
I'm not sure what else is as good for the money. The Omega stand I mention is cheaper but meh and you still need a seat. I might actually buy the PlaySeat Challenge knock-off and do a quick comparison, it's a fair bit cheaper and looks very similar.
The best budget racing seat is just a used car seat bolted on some wooden board where you bolted on your ancient logitech G20 Momo edition racing wheel and shifter. I used the seat out of a Impreza. Also, just because you are in self isolation does not mean you can play games in your underwear and then upload it on UA-cam Ben Griffin! What would your mother say about that?
I drive faster with less clothing, you save weight (I wasn't actually naked, don't want anymore rumours). And yeah you're right, an old car seat can work with some DIY goodness. I just don't have the time these days sadly.
That seat looks like ass tbh, and the price they charge is criminal. if you can afford $200 for a garden chair with tubes, you can afford a bit more for a steel and aluminum direct drive handling simetik cockpit or diy aluminum extrusion cockpit

It seems to be but it really depends how rough you are. There are mods that can be done to improve rigidity and longevity if concerned or something breaks!
@@ATribeCalledCars Thanks. appreciate it
How is the leg room
Ample for me at 6ft (183cm), the pedals can go much further too. I would say it is more a case of width being the biggest restriction.
I’m stuck between this or the FGT lite 🤔
Does the velcro strap for the pedals come in different sizes cause mine barely fits for my t lcm pedals
It should be standard but then maybe the product was adjusted since this video. You could probably get a longer replacement on Amazon for a few quid although that's not ideal.
So a force feedback wheel is a waste of time on this rig??
Not necessarily, but I think if you spend that much on a steering wheel perhaps you would buy a better rig. Although space can be the issue.
@@ATribeCalledCars yep. That is the problem.
Thanks for this video! Can you please tell me how high from the ground the wheel base is when setup?
With how many screws did you mount the Wheel base with?? For my TX there is just two I could mount!!

The best budget racing seat is just a used car seat bolted on some wooden board where you bolted on your ancient logitech G20 Momo edition racing wheel and shifter. I used the seat out of a Impreza.
Also, just because you are in self isolation does not mean you can play games in your underwear and then upload it on UA-cam Ben Griffin! What would your mother say about that?
I drive faster with less clothing, you save weight (I wasn't actually naked, don't want anymore rumours). And yeah you're right, an old car seat can work with some DIY goodness. I just don't have the time these days sadly.
Christian Horner, is that you?
Haha not the first to say that.
Well MEE6 pinged me so I'm here
And it manages to do this while muting Dr P. Impressive.
Cough cough not me cough
@2:33 this guy fucks lol my man

Good to know.
I am not putting my ass in that lawn chair
but bro you sit so far away from the screen 🥲
In an ideal office, I'd have a bigger screen mounted to the chair. But unfortunately I don't have the space.
WTF? min 1:19 xD
I almost got the 100th like 😭
$200 lawn chair
You could describe it as that!
@@ATribeCalledCars Good work with the video btw
I just really hate how much they charge for that chair
@@UrNewStepdad91 Yeah totally understand and thanks for the praise. Appreciate it.
day 21 of asking to be on the next best comments video
That seat looks like ass tbh, and the price they charge is criminal. if you can afford $200 for a garden chair with tubes, you can afford a bit more for a steel and aluminum direct drive handling simetik cockpit or diy aluminum extrusion cockpit
That was my first thought: this is just a really expensive garden chair… lol
@@GoLongAmerica Right lol
