Full Review of noblechairs ICON

Now let’s go into detail, examining several essential elements such as its build quality and the comfort of its seat.

Design and materials

It’s a nice package that arrives, very bulky with its 30 kg on the meter. But it is rather reassuring about the solidity of the chair! And indeed, the elements of this unpacked, we find an aluminum structure, a class IV cylinder, thick casters, or a steel core. The 5-foot support is ideal for stability.

Note that, like Secretlab, noblechairs offers you a great range of customization. We first think of the coating, which you can have in leather (synthetic or real) or vinyl. Aesthetics are also in the spotlight, thanks to the choice of different colors and special editions. Systematically, the rendering is superb, and in the case of the colored versions, the topstitching is splendid. Even before tackling its prowess in terms of support and comfort, it is, above all, a beautiful object.

Mounting

We often see for many gaming chairs that assembly is laborious, often requiring 2 people. Fortunately, this is not the case for the noblechairs Epic! The package comes with a key, screws, and, of course, the assembly instructions (on glossy paper, please!). Allow between 15 and 25 minutes for the assembly, knowing that you can do it alone. The different parts and chairs’ weight can make the process a bit more complex, but nothing really crippling.

Sitting and support

There, the promises are kept. The hold of the high-density foam envelops your entire body, the backrest offering ideal support. The seat is just as qualitative, but you might as well give it a thousand: firmness is the keyword! Also, lovers of softness will prefer to turn to another gaming chair, or at least wait for the support to be “done.” For maximum comfort, of course, follow the specifications in terms of maximum weight and recommended size.

You can also adjust the chair in such a way that it adapts to your wishes. You can, of course, adjust the seat height (from 48 to 58 cm) and enjoy a relaxed position thanks to the backrest’s tilt up to 135°.

Comfort

The seat is, therefore, comfortable, even if the firmness is quite pronounced. To rest your arms, you benefit from 4D polyurethane armrests, which, on the other hand, are relatively soft. This is a criticism often addressed to less qualitative armchairs, namely the rigidity of the plastic armrests. In addition to the quality of manufacture, the 4D, therefore, allows you to adjust the armrests on several axes to find the perfect positioning according to your desires, your needs, the activity you practice …

However, rather generous in their dimensions and their thickness. A good point is a priori for optimal support, but this reduces the seat’s space in the lumbar region. So some users prefer to remove it.

Conclusion

Looking at all of the above, the strengths of the gaming chair are undeniable. Hardly received, the noblechairs ICON exudes quality, and its materials ensure real durability. Too bad, however, that the warranty is limited to 2 years, where a Secretlab offers 3 to 5 years warranty for models of similar range.

The comparison continues on the assembly, easy and without fuss, or the many adjustments possible to perform. Of course, the 4D armrests are the Holy Grail, but you also enjoy a multi-tilt mechanism for a tilt of 11 ° maximum. Comfort is certainly the major strength of this gaming chair, even if the seat’s firmness will be a bit too hard for some.
