In this article we are going to see the review of Quesrus Icos, a comfortable, practical gaming chair waiting to be discovered!
A new folding system that avoids hitting the back when lifting the backrest, a latest generation foam filling for the cushions and an ergonomic system designed to offer the best comfort without forgetting the health of those who use the Quersus Icos.
Customizations such as the choice of models are not lacking on the Quesrsus site which allows you to choose between four different models of chairs and multiple colors.
You can also purchase accessories separately such as custom pillows and more. THEn this review we will obviously focus on the Icos model which is the one offered to us for the review but if you are curious we invite you to take a look like we did.
Specifications and Fitment | Quesrus Icos review
Here are some specifications of the chair:
- Seat width: 50 cm
- Stature: designed for a person up to 180 cm tall
- Overall height: 129/139 cm
- Overall width: 56cm
- Seat depth: 55 cm
- Backrest height: 92/99cm
- Weight: 27kg
- Maximum capacity: 150 kg
The instructions provided were essential during assembly. Really very clear, thanks to complete and exhaustive drawings.
Inside the package we find a box containing all the necessary screws but also a T-shaped screwdriver with interchangeable heads. Thanks to the accessories provided, it is not necessary to use anything else and assembly with the help of another person (just for convenience) takes about fifteen minutes.
The packaging is careful not to scratch any part of the chair. Each part is packaged individually and therefore it is impossible, even for the most clumsy courier, to be able to ruin the contents of the package.
Design and Materials | Quesrus Icos review
The design of the Icos gaming chair by Quersus is among the most classic even if the chosen details manage to make it stand out from the crowd. Obviously all this is also thanks to the excellent materials chosen.
The tone-on-tone colors that divide the fabric between gray and black. In fact, we find a light gray background and the writing bearing the logo and name of the chair in black. We also find the writing with the company name in white where the nape rests.
The version chosen for this review is the one in fabric, consequently the blacks are opaque. The same matte black is also found on the back of the backrest. To be honest, there is a shiny part and it is also quite an important part. We are obviously of the five-spoke star that rests with the floor. All the metal part of the structure, therefore obviously excluding the wheels, is glossy black.
Overall, the materials chosen seem to be of good quality. The metals are resistant and also with regard to the fabrics we have nothing to complain about.
Comfort and use | Quesrus Icos review
The materials are obviously important to ensure good quality in the immediate term but above all in the long term. Obviously, however, when it comes to gaming chairs or not, it is also important that they are comfortable.
The Icos One Edition that we tested is comfortable for many reasons but it also has some shortcomings. Surely in the merits there are the backrest management system that follows the back for perfect ergonomics of the same or the seat that allows better blood circulation in the legs.
Great job or they definitely do the chair position management system too. In fact, this system, in addition to raising and lowering the seat, allows us to recline the backrest up to 140 degrees but also to slide the seat away from the backrest for a maximum distance of 7 centimeters.
We also cannot avoid talking about the 4D armrests. In fact, they adjust in height and have three positions on the horizontal axis and three heights on the vertical axis as well as scrolling forwards and backwards. As previously mentioned, the headrest also moves and as well as being able to be removed it can be lifted and positioned in 7 different heights with segments of one centimeter each.
If we had to find a fault in the Quersus Icos it would certainly be in the type of foam used for the padding of the chair. Although it is of good quality and we are sure that this choice will be rewarded in the long run, it is difficult to appreciate the overall hardness of the padding in the first few sessions.
The material used to cover the wheels is also excellent, offering good general sliding and not scratching the surfaces.
Who should buy this gaming chair?
In conclusion, we would like to recommend this gaming chair to anyone looking for a chair made of good materials and which can certainly last over time. The materials chosen as well as the details and the mechanisms inserted justify the cost of the chair for the most part, which however does not offer any cushions supplied.
The chosen design allows it to be positioned both in an actual gaming position and in a hybrid office situation.
The price as mentioned is not the most accessible but spending little it is not possible to obtain attention to detail or a series of premium materials. It is possible to buy Quesrus Icos at the price of 579 euros (previously discounted price was 699 euros) on the official website.
