When it comes to gaming, you can dive hard or you can stay in the shallow end. You can buy all the current gen consoles and upgrade your PC with a graphics card that costs the same as a mid-tier cruiseship holiday, or you can be satisfied with Peggle on your work laptop. Either way, you should never scrimp on the most important machine you’ll ever own: your human body. Not everybody is sold on the idea of dropping a few hundred bucks on a desk chair, but the ones that aren’t all have one thing in common. They’ve never sat on a desk chair that costs a few hundred bucks. AndaSeat is a giant in the world of gaming chairs, with a heritage that includes high end sports car seat design and dedicated esports furniture. The latest model from this peerless manufacturer is the Kaiser 4, and we’re here—along with AndaSeat’s CEO, Lin Zhou, and Product Manager, Zhao Yi—to break down the specs of this innovative new gaming chair.But first, here’s a quick overview of the Kaiser 4’s features.Like any gaming chair worthy of the description, the Kaiser 4 looks cool, has an adjustable rocker, and boasts a wide range of possible adjustments. But it comes a whole lot more than that, including 4-level pop-out lumbar support, 4-way built-in adjustment, a magnetic head pillow, and 5D armrests—that’s at least one dimension more than you’ve probably experienced before in an armrest.It also comes in two materials: a breathable, high-quality linen in two colors and sustainable PVC leather in ten different colors, including “robin egg blue”, “zen purple”, and “blazing orange”.  Those are the headlines, but how does a chair like that come together?Technologies

“We have incorporated several new technologies in the AndaSeat Kaiser 4”, reveals Zhao Yi, “including advanced ergonomic design software, high-density cold-cured foam, and premium
upholstery materials that offer breathability and durability. 
“Additionally, the chair features a robust adjustable mechanism that allows users to customize their seating experience”.
According to Lin Zhou, these technologies put the Kaiser 4 right on the cutting edge, “due to its advanced ergonomic design, high-quality materials, and customizable features”.
Materials

AndaSeat clearly spent a lot of time researching the materials that make up the Kaiser 4, to ensure that it’s both durable and comfortable.
Zhao Yi lists the ingredients for us. “The AndaSeat Kaiser 4 is made from high-density cold-cured foam, premium leather or fabric upholstery, and a reinforced steel frame. 
“These materials”, he explains, “were chosen for their durability, comfort, and aesthetic appeal. The high-density foam provides long-lasting support, while the premium upholstery ensures breathability and easy maintenance”.
This matters. If you’re anything like us, your gaming chair is your single most utilised piece of furniture (during waking hours at least), so you need it to be both comfortable and robust.
As Lin Zhou explains, “high-quality materials ensure that the chair can withstand long gaming sessions without losing its shape or comfort. Additionally, breathable materials help maintain a comfortable temperature, reducing discomfort during extended use”.
Manufacturing

Each AndaSeat Kaiser 4 takes more than a week to produce, through a process that involves both automated and manual input from engineers and testers. 
“Our quality assurance process includes multiple stages of testing and inspection”, reveals Zhao Yi. “This begins with material testing to ensure durability and safety, followed by ergonomic testing to validate comfort and support”.
Once all of these tests and inspections have been passed, the chair is ready to approach the final straight. 
“Each chair is assembled and tested for functionality, and a final inspection ensures that all components meet our quality standards before packaging and shipment”.
