Ich habe den Playseat Challenge geholt, weil ich einen Sitz brauchte, den man gut verstauen kann wenn man ihn nicht benutzt.
Und genau dafür ist der Sitz perfekt.
Ich habe ein Logitech G920 am Sitz angebracht.
Die Verarbeitung ist sehr gut und der Sitz hält richtig was aus.
Selbst wenn man knallhart die Bremse tritt.
Lediglich die Sitzbreite ist etwas knapp für kräftige Menschen wie ich es bin.
Der Preis ist meines Erachtens auch völlig in Ordnung.
Und ich würde empfehlen die "Playseat Floor Mat" gleich mitzubestellen, wenn man auf einem glatten Boden den Sitz aufstellen möchte.

Der Playseat Challenge ist die ideale Lösung für Racer mit Platzproblemen, der Sitz ist für den Gebrauch in 3 Minuten aufgebaut und ebenso schnell wieder abgebaut und verstaut.

Bei mir steht er im Kleiderschrank (ist ja ein Männerschrank, daher ist dort noch Platz).

Der Zusammenbau, bei Lieferung, ist in 10 Minuten erledigt. Es wird keine Werkzeug benötigt. Alles wird gesteckt und arretiert.

Der Sitz lässt sich über die Klettbänder der Armstützen einstellen, ebenso kann man über die weiteren Klettbänder die Sitzposition anpassen.

Die Aufnahme für das Lenkrad lässt sich neigen und ist überaus stabil, selbst bei heftigen FFB Effekten wackelt sie nur minimal und as ist auch nötig. Die Aufnahme für die Pedale lässt sich in Länge und Position anpassen und ist auch sehr stabil. Das "normalerweise" mitgelieferte Klebeband hält das Pedalset in Position.

Warum "normalerweise"? Bei mir fehlten im Originalkarton, die Anleitung, das Klebeband für die Pedalset Befestigung und das Klebeband um den Sitz später im zusammengeklappten Zustand zuhalten.Der Support hat schnell reagiert und mir Ersatz verschafft, leider selbstklebendes Klettband das auch nicht lang genug war.
Warte nun auf meine zweite Ersatzlieferung.

Dennoch ist der Playseat voll nutzbar!

Im Großen und Ganzen ein tolles Produkt.

Der Sessel wirkt sehr hochwertig und auch die Materialwahl ist hervorragend.
Er ist nicht ganz verwindungssteif, aber für seinen Zweck absolut ausreichend.
Das Positivste: Ihn verstauen funktioniert komplett problemlos, und auf das wurde beim Kauf das Hauptaugenmerk gelegt. So verschwindet er spurlos im Schrank und ist innerhalb von Sekunden auch wieder einsatzbereit.
Einzig der Komfort lässt etwas zu wünschen übrig, sofern man nicht ganz der Norm entspricht. Ich wiege in meinem Fall etwas mehr, zwar noch den Belastungsgrenzen entsprechend, jedoch wird es rund um die Oberschenkel schon sehr eng und beengend.
Jedoch hab ich mit einer Größe von über 1,90 keine Probleme dank der ausziehbaren Pedalerie-halterung. EInzig die Kopfstütze könnte noch etwas höher sein.

Alles in allem: Für jemand ganz normalen mit Hang zum Gelegenheitsracen mit wenig Platz ist der Sessel ideal!!

Das Material der Sitzauflage ist hochwertig. Die Konstruktion ist stabil. Lenkrad T300 RS passt sehr gut.
Einziges Manko für mich: Am Ende des Sitzes werden meine Beine zusammengedrückt, was auf Dauer unangenehm ist. Ist wahrscheinlich für schlanke Beine kein Problem.

Schnelle Lieferung, einfacher Zusammenbau mit sehr guter illustrierter Anleitung und dann geht es nach wenigen Minuten schon los mit dem Kavaliersstart.
Super fährt es sich mit dem Playseat Challenge - das Wegrutschen der Pedale oder des Sitzes sind Geschichte und man kann sich voll auf das Geschehen auf der Rennstrecke konzentrieren.
Das macht nun noch mehr Spaß und bringt wertvolle Zehntel :-)
Mein Fazit: Den Playseat hätte ich mir schon früher gönnen sollen :-)

What an incredible find and absolutely awesome service. Ordered on a Monday and was delivered on Wednesday of the same week. Way faster than ordering items from eBay that are shipped from the US and the seat came from Europe to Canada. Arrived double boxed, so shipping was awesome!

For those that are looking for a SIM seat solution that can be put away when done playing, this is what you need. Setup is very quick, simple and was racing before you knew it. Love the seat, very comfortable and the ability to adjust the seat to suit whatever your needs are is fantastic. Takes less time now to setup and put away the game racing gear than before and way more comfortable.

Now time to upgrade my wheel and pedals.....

Keep the shiny side up!

i just can say that it hold all this time like a boss of course after couple hours when i start sweat like a pig the seat material become wet as well but as a high quality material it was still confortable to drive and sit on it of course would be way better driving i think on a leather seat but playseat challange seat make a great job as well and i dont need to be worried about that can something go wrong with seat. so im happy about this your product but i will give 8/10 because no gear box holder and would be more comfortable that all rim would be a little bit wider but if we dont watch in these two options then 10/10 ;)
but its only two problems wich i saw after hard using this seat
the advantages of this seat is
good price
space saver
giving all experiance of simulation
love that i can controle seat how i want in all ways
stability is amazing
all those high quality stickers blowing my mind how they can hold me because my weight is 90kg
and of course i love that high quality material
and all design is really cool so just let you know that is amazing product. thank you.

After using it for 2 weeks every night, I had to write a review for this product.

Some background first. I had to upgrade from the Wheel Stand Pro which I used for 2 years. It did the job, but not quite. Having a separate chair was not comfortable enough for my back. I needed an upgrade. A full rig was out of the question, as our house doesn't have a man-cave. So my wife would not be happy with a rig lying around. I finally settled for the Playseat Challenge and man, still asking why I didn't buy this seat before.

Setting it up was a breeze. But then came the real test. Sitting down in it. I was somehow doubtful it would be stable. So I cautiously got in the seat and WOW! You really feel you got into a race car. I had to adjust a bit the seating position by tweaking a bit the velcro steps, but that's it. And did I already say it's really comfortable? Heck, this seat is more comfortable than my Celica.

Besides saving my back, another advantage I found was that everytime you open up the Playseat Challenge, it always gives you the same setup every single time, as if you're getting in your own car, which is great. Unlike the Wheel Stand Pro, where you have to fiddle around with the levers, so it's not always the same setup.

During sim racing, besides being comfortable, you also don't have a bar in the middle, like the Wheel Stand Pro. which might get in the way (especially if you're using 3 pedals and heal-and-toe).

Stashing it away, which is why I bought this in the first place, is quick and easy. Collapse the chair, strap a velcro band to secure it, wrap the wires around the pedals, collapse the pedals, strap another small velcro band and done - 2 min job flat.

Get yourself a present, and get this chair. You won't regret it.

Around two weeks ago I decided to go for a Thrustmaster wheel along with a Playseat product. Although at first I was skeptical about the rigidity and comfort of the Playseat Challenge, I am actually very surprised with how the seat feels and its stability.

With regards to the wheel, I opted for the T300RS GT, as after reading numerous reviews this seemed like a great wheel at a reasonable price. Accuracy and force feedback feel great!

In short, I recommend this combination (Playseat Challenge + Thrustmaster T300RS GT) to anyone looking to add to their racing experience and willing to spend around 600EUR.

Ever since I got my Playseat Challenge, I was addicted to playing driving games. It was the best racing seat I tried while playing my favorite driving games. Besides all the fun in it, it has all the features that I have imagined on an ideal gamer's seat. The design of it's portability and ease to setup and fold is genius. Plus my experience on purchasing this seat is remarkable, as it was beyond my expectations. The seat was delivered to me in a snap and in great packaging.

Thanks again PLAYSEAT. Here is one of your many very satisfied customer. More power to you and keep up the good work. :)

THE perfect solution for the gamer with a wife that does not want your setup permanently in front of the family TV! I am a traveling sales rep and pack my seat, PS, and G27 into my truck for every trip - take into hotel and don't miss a race. Playseat just as stable and perfect today as when I unpacked it 18 months ago. NO issues, NO complaints, Playseat delivered more than expected (unusual today).

I received my Playseat Challenge today and hooked it up to my Logitech G29 wheel and pedals. The assembly was very intuitive and I was racing on Project Cars 2 in short order. I am 6' tall and weight 250lbs. and was concerned about how I would fit in the Challenge chair. All I can say is "wow." It is extremely comfortable and I am very happy with my purchase. I highly recommend the challenge for those who have a confined space to race in. It is excellent in every way possible. After a great session of racing, my Challenge cockpit folded into an easily stowed package. Thanks Playseat!

My gaming chair used for racing finally wore out and I started looking for a replacement. I needed a seat that was comfortable, and could be stored easily. I involved my wife in the process of determining the best option and we both found the Playseat Challenge appeared to be the best option. I ordered the seat directly from Playseat and the process was easy, fast, and actually fun. I monitored the seats journey via FedEx from start to finish as it traversed the globe. The seat arrived in excellent shape and I was able to assemble it in minutes. The materials are of excellent quality, from the Alcantara seat to the tubular chair frame, wheel platform, and high quality Velcro straps. My racing wheel and pedals attached easily and are very stable. I am able to race for long period of time without fatigued or becoming uncomfortable. An added bonus to the Playseat Challenge is the absence the wheel platform post found on other seat seat ups. There is no post between your legs! Thank you Playseat for providing an alternative to larger more fixed racing simulator chairs. See you at the races.

Back in 1998 I remember playing Gran Turismo for the first time and being blown away. Mostly because finally we have the game most of us idealized a proper racing game should be. In 2002 I got my first racing wheel. The first driving force gt. Which I had bolted to a dinner tray complete with a rocking recliner my grandad gave me. Not exactly ergonomical Lol. Hell, a gated shifter was unheard of. I used to imagine what a racing seat at home would be like. Fast forward too today where sim racing has become sort of a snobs hobby. It's expensive. You guys at playseat have found a very special niche with the challenge. Cost, comfort, reliability & functionality. I think finally, we have the rig most of us idealized a proper home rig should be.

I will begin by saying that I'm very happy with my purchase so far. I have put in probably around 12 hours of racing in it so far.

Delivery was very fast, and the product was packaged very well.
The construction of the seat surprised me by its sturdiness. It was very easy to mount following the included instructions.

However, it is during the installation process that I discovered the few drawbacks.
First, the included velcro strap isn't long enough to hold my Fanatec ClubSport pedals. Thankfully it's nothing a few zip-ties cannot fix.
Next, as some earlier reviews have pointed out - there is no shifter/handbrake mount included. My Fanatec GT3 wheel comes with a mounting system (although a flimsy one) so I was able to mount the shifter this way.
On the plus side, I was able to correctly mount my steering wheel using the attached hardware and pre-drilled holes.

Cable management is tricky, if like me, you want to have everything attached all the time. You have to compensate for the chair folding in terms of cable length. This is not a design flaw - I don't think there would be a way of simplifying this.

In usage, as mentioned earlier, the construction is very sturdy. It does wobble a little bit, especially around the steering wheel, but it doesn't break the gaming experience. This is the price to pay for being able to have a real racing cockpit in a small room.

The folding aspect is great, it takes me around 2 minutes to fold the chair out and be ready for racing.
Storage is easy, but beware of it tipping over if you have heavy steering wheel and pedals - just put it against the wall to solve that problem.

There are two unexpected bonuses due to the design of the seat : First, no central pillar between the legs due to the wheel mounting system. You can move your knees around, like in a real car.
Second, the Vibration and Force Feedback of my Fanatec gear transfers into the light construction of the seat so I'm able to feel the bumps and the RPM of the car in the whole body. It greatly helps the gaming experience.

Once folded out, it looks and feels like a racing seat. It becomes the centerpiece of the room.
Overall it is a great buy for someone without the space for a full-on racing cockpit but who wants to experience the game in a different way.
It is relatively inexpensive for this type of quality. There are a few drawbacks but nothing major (although the shifter/handbrake mount would be welcome).

P.S.: It's much easier to convince your wife of having one because you can easily stow it away!

This is the second Playseat Challenge that has been purchased to provide interactive education and awareness to students and adults regarding the dangers of distracted and impaired driving. The seat is used in conjunction with the One Simple Decision driving simulator from Virtual Driver Interactive.

The Playseat Challenge is a valuable tool that has raised our program to a higher level. The students are intrigued by the seat and are eager to participate. The seat is portable, easy to store and ship to events, and quick to set up.

The order process is efficient and the customer service is focused on meeting the needs of the customer in a timely manner.

I would highly recommend the Playseat Challenge to other organizations.

This chair is the perfect mix of affordability and quality. It's definitely entry level but it doesn't make any huge compromises in the design and quality of materials. It is a bit slim on the upper legs for me and a little tricky to get in and out of. However, once in the chair it's quite easy to get comfortable for a decent length of time before needing a break. I also appreciate how easy it is to fold up for storage. This is a solid option for any person interested in sim racing.

After a few weeks of using my Playseat Challenge I have started to think about upgrading already because of how much more I enjoy driving in an actual racing position.

Pros:
- Easy to Setup
- Easy to Use
- Very fun to use
- Very adjustable to fit your needs

Cons:
- A little bit harder to get in and out of than a permanent setup.
- Under heavy breaking I have had the front of the chair come off the ground at times
- On long stints I think a permanent seat would be considerably more comfortable

Overall I would highly recommend the Playseat Challenge to everyone. I have approached Sim Racing with a "buy something reasonable to start and see where it goes." Over time I will probably build a permanent structure and will consider some of the playseat permanent setups considering how well built this was.

The seat works extremely well with my Thrustmaster T300. It's quite comfortable and folds easily into my closet while not having to remove my wheel/pedals at all.

It's a little pricier than other budget wheel stands, but I think it's worth the money.

I've had my Playseat Challenge for about a month now and it's been a great experience for someone dipping their toes into the video game racing world.

It's incredibly comfortable and sturdy and really gets you into the racing frame of mind. I use it with a Thrustmaster T300RS GT and the thing is rock solid. You look at it and you think it's just a fancy looking lawn chair, but this thing is built with quality. A 2 hour session will fly by with zero discomfort. It's especially nice if you don't have a dedicated spot to have a rig setup all the time. I can fold the chair up and slide it into a closet with minimal effort.

If you're looking to upgrade from a wheel clamped to a desk and an office chair look no further. It's the perfect entry into having a racing rig.

Had a racing wheel and pedals back 20 years ago as a kid and had to get a table and pull up a chair like a peasant. Recently decided to buy another wheel to do some racing sims and was blown away by a seat that could fold up and use in a small apartment. Very affordable price and amazing quality. The wheel and pedals can fold right into it so no need for disassembly.

I tried this at my friends house in Serbia and the week I came back to the U.S. I ordered one of myself. This seat is probably the cheapest high quality seat you can get. The metal feels nice and thick and sturdy, the Velcro sticks extremely well and doesn't make a bunch of noise or move out of position. The seat material feels very nice and breathable, and it's not difficult to sit in for hours. Overall, all of the materials used feel very high quality and like they could last for years. Shipping from the Netherlands to America only took a week. The chair folds up into a low flat profile which is perfect to quickly store it away. 10/10 chair, 10/10 material choice, 10/10 design, and 10/10 company

I'm not a huge gamer but have been playing Forza Horizon 5... the seat has made a HUGE difference in how much I enjoy the game! I look forward to my weekends.

There are a couple things I really like about the seat.

1. It is amazingly comfortable to sit and play in, its easy to personalize and once you set it to your needs it is very comfortable.

2. Great quality, very stable. Feels really stable when you're using it. I'm really impressed considering this is the entry level model. Love the quality.

3. Foldable - I didnt realise how compact it would be. Was all prepared to dedicate some sapce to keep the seat when its not in use, but it folds into a TINY profile

4. And lastly, another bonus for me... didnt realise I would be able to leave the pedals and steering wheel connected to the chair and it would STILL fold into this small package to store! I LOVE that I dont have to assemble and disassemble the seat every time. I didnt realise how big it a hassle it was for me to mount and dismount the steering wheel to my desk each time I wanted to play.

So.. love the seat. Can't wait to justify upgrading!

I bought the Playseat challenge for use with my Fanatec CSL DD. It's perfect for my apartment size and I'm really happy at how well it's built and how comfortable it is for the price point. I even played regular games sitting on the playseat because of how comfy it was. I was initially apprehensive about whether it would be suitable for a Direct Drive wheel. But, overall it's been great. I'm not sure how it would fare with stronger wheels. The only complaint I have is if the setup is very front heavy, then it can easily tip over even with the lightest of touches. I would suggest adding some counter weights if you're using the seat with a wheel like the CSL DD. At the moment, I've placed my dumbbells on the rear rod(?) so it doesn't tip over :).

This is a world class gaming chair! The fact that it's so comfortable, so adjustable for different heights and it can fold away WITH the pedals and wheel still attached is a feat of modern engineering. For the price point, there is no rival on quality, performance and comfort

The only thing buyers should be aware of is that if you have large legs, the metal loops that hold the arm straps dig into your legs making it uncomfortable to sit for any length of time. I used some of the protective foam and rubber bands that came with the packaging to cover the metal clips and it works perfectly so I'm able to sit comfortably.

The conclusion is there's nothing that should prevent you from buying this chair because it comes with everything you could want from a race gaming chair!

*This review is a story of an individual experience.

Somewhere in a galaxy, far, far away.....an item later identified as PS5 was discovered. It offered progression of the known.

Deep within it's layers, a parchment was found containing visual depictions that somehow serve to enhance the experience of the PS5 discovery.

Meanwhile, somewhere close to the Adriatic Sea, a young boy was juggling emotions and his thoughts on Christmas, gazing up at the afternoon sky, he sketched something on a piece of paper, tucking it in his back pocket.

Later, he caught up with his father, retelling the events that permeated his day.

The father compelled by what he heard recalled information that passed through the processing chambers of thought attributable only to full grown members of their species.

From an initial scribble amidst thoughts of an afternoon day, current facts occurring simultaneously, then being discovered thousands of miles away.

The quest was on, the challenge...to retrieve and manifest a unique piece of technology that would enhance the process of discovery and bring a new dimension of life, to the idle town Sibenik.

Several communications were sent out to scouts camped on the fringe of Europa with instruction to retrieve the object that would later be known as "Playseat Challenge".

The emphasis of the story is on the bond between young and matured members of our society and how they can combine their innate abilities to bring about, manifest and spread JOY - a highly contagious state that can initiate and spread, just from of an emotion emitted by pure, untainted frequency of a young fulfilled soul.

Epilogue: JOY turned to levels of pandemic, infecting all humanity.

They all played, seated comfortably connected, resolving challenges that plagued our existence from early times.

A new world dawned, a new journey began with promise of hope and prosperity. Abundance of discovery and experiences never witnessed began occurring in random on all fronts of our world.

Merry Christmas son, enjoy the RIDE!

Love,

Dad xoxox

Bought this product as a storable solution for the living room and it really exceeded my expectations, especially for the price. With wheel and pedals the whole thing is still light weight and extremely easy to fold up and move. It is way more stable than I thought it would be. I wouldn't jump to putting a direct drive wheel base on it, but with more entry level kit, it is perfect. Adjusting the seat does take a little work, but it is easy to do and once it's adjusted, you could sleep in it. I can only give 4 stats for design due to the included pedals strap being too short. I managed to get it around my Thrustmaster T3PA, but I had to go around the very bottom on the heel plate and still had to muscle the strap around for the ends to comfortably overlap. If the seat included a 2nd longer strap to accommodate 3 pedals it would have been 5 stars.

So, I bought the Playseat Challenge in the hopes that it would be portable enough to store and use in my small house. It definitely accomplishes that task and then some. With a Logitech g920, it fold to about 6 inches deep, and can comfortably stand in my closet out of the way. Setting it up can be a bit of a chore, since the pedal mount needs to be set out each time it is used (I’m 6’1”, so the pedals need to stretch a bit.

Once it is set up, and all the straps are set to the right length for you, it is absolutely great to sit in, being nice and comfortable for 1-3 hour sessions (I start to lose my arms and braking a bit at this point, not due to seat discomfort).

Overall, I would recommend, but only for someone who absolutely needs a folding rig.

Der Spielsitz ist stabil und lässt sich mit Hilfe der Bildanleitung schnell aufbauen. Die Größenanpassung ist mit verschiedenen Riemen mittels Klettverschluss möglich und die Klettverschlüsse sind großzügig dimensioniert, damit sie dauerhaft halten.
Das Lenkrad (hier G27 Logitech) lässt sich mit den mitgelieferten Inbusschrauben sicher an der Konsole befestigen, damit nichts hin und her rutscht.
Die Halterung für die Pedale lässt sich auf die gewünschte Länge ausziehen und anschließend mit Klemmschrauben arretieren, der Verstellbereich ist ausreichend groß. Die Pedalplatte liegt an einer Querstange an und wird von hinten durch einen breiten Riemen mit Klettverschluss befestigt, so dass überhaupt nichts verrutscht.
Zum Ein- und Aussteigen lässt sich die Lenkradkonsole hochklappen; es wird mit einer stabilen klemmschraube mit rastung an der lenkradhalterung befestigt. Dies ermöglicht auch die gewünschte Höhenverstellung des Lenkrads zum Fahren. Es gibt sogar einen ausziehbaren Seitenarm, um ein Umkippen des Sitzes beim Ein- und Aussteigen zu verhindern. Zum Verpacken hebe ich einfach die Pedalhalterung (am Stuhl befestigt, damit sie sich drehen kann) an und befestige sie mit Hilfe eines beiliegenden Riemens mit Klettverschluss an der Lenkradhalterung.

Zusammenfassend kann ich sagen, dass mir dieser Playseat nach ein paar Anpassungen wie angegossen passt, auch bei längeren Online-Rennen (bis zu 90 min) sitze ich entspannter als je zuvor. Vorbei sind die Zeiten, in denen das Lenkrad selbstständig auf dem Tisch klemmt oder der Schreibtischsessel plötzlich auf den Rollen verrutscht, ich hätte so ein Gerät schon viel früher in die Hand bekommen sollen.

Der Preis ist mit ca. 200 € vielleicht etwas hoch aber ich bereue den Kauf definitiv nicht und empfehle den Sitz jedem, der wenig Platz hat.

Very comfortable, I think I could even work from here all day :)

Even though it looks a bit unstable when you are not sitting in it and not driving, I didn't feel any wobbling while playing, it felt stable.

One thing that is a but unfortunate is when you fold the chair you have to adjust the pedal positions and the wheelbase rotation, so when you want to play again, you will have to set it back to the position that's right for you. On the other hand, this makes the chair foldable which is a big plus for this chair.

Tested with Logitech G29, didn't have any problem neither with controlling the car or the strong brake pedal. I had to get used to the different sitting position, but after 45 - 60 minutes it felt a lot better. The package includes 4 screws and the screwdriver to mount the wheel to the base.

All in all, I think this is a great choice for people who want to add some more fun to the simulator experience but don't have much space and / or a huge budget. I definitely enjoy it :)

Nach anfänglicher Enttäuschung bin ich nun sehr happy. Ein geiles Spielerlebnis habe ich wenn ich GT spiele. Sitzt sich sehr gut lässt sich gut einstellen macht einfach Laune.
Warum die anfängliche Enttäuschung?
Die Lenker Konsole hat für mein Lenker keine Befestigungspunkte gehabt. In der Beschreibung Santander für alle gängigen Modelle. Fürs Wirless RWA Racing WHEEL leider nicht. Als Handwerker habe ich mir dann ein Lich gebohrt. Wenn’s euch interessiert schreib mich an liebe Grüße

Ich habe den playseat challenge bestellt, weil ich mit einem authentischen sitzkomfort wie in einem Auto, meine Therapie ausführen wollte. Der Sitz erfüllt, was den sitzkomfort angeht, vollstens meine Erwartungen. Da ich halbseitig gelähmt bin, war mir natürlich Stabilität sehr wichtig. Auch hier kann ich nichts negatives sagen. Der Sitz hat mich positiv überzeugt. Er ist stabil, qualitativ hochwertig und außerdem auch ein Hingucker.. Lediglich eine Halterung für einen schaltknauf vermisse ich. Aber ich denke, hierfür gibt es sicherlich eine Lösung. Der Kundenservice kann mir sicherlich weiterhelfen. Ihre Freundlichkeit durfte ich bereits in einer Email erfahren. Übrigens, nicht zu vergessen ist, dass der Sitz platzsparend ist. Man kann ihn sehr gut zuklappen und ihn, falls nötig, in einem Schrank verstauen. Fazit: Klasse!

Have you ever wondered what was the purpose in life? I know I have. Now I know it was to find this seat and drive in it.

When it arrived and I opened the box, the room started smelling of roses and mythical plants until then unknown to man. The assembling part was both easy and yet fulfilling, as if I was accomplishing my true destiny in life, bringing something good into the world. The sound of the velcros on the straps still resonate in my mind, making my skin tingle at the thought.

Once seated in it, it is like being cradled safely in the arms of a gentle goddess, knowing she'll give you her protection while you drive your virtual cars. Somehow the seats adjusts to your body as if it was made of an alien living textile alloy.

As for storing, who could even think of doing such a thing? I know I haven't yet, but I have no doubt it would be very easy, just by looking at the marvel of engineering that this thing is.

If you are having space issues but want to race nicely nonetheless, this is absolutely the way to go! It’s assembled very fast and then stowed away in not more than a minute. Plus the wheelbase and pedals can stay on, so you don’t have to worry about them either tidying your room. Only issues I had was that the headrest is angled slightly too much for me (which was fixed by lowering the seat position), the Velcro tape for mounting the pedals is too short for my csl elite pedals (workaround with zip ties) and that the mounting plate for the wheelbase has to be in its most forward position for assembly because of the screw layout, which makes it flex a little more than needed. All in all minor drawbacks to an otherwise great product! I am having a lot of fun with it.

Mit einem Fanatec Setup (speziell die Pedale) vielleicht nicht der beste aber ein sehr gutes Produkt.

- Pedale Befestigungen könnten besser sein
- bei starkem Bremsen kippt der Sessel leicht (muss aber sehr starkes Bremsen sein)

Habe mir für meine Fanatec-Anlage den Sitz zugelegt.
Bin im großen und ganzen sehr zufrieden und kann es weiterempfehlen.

Die Lieferung erfolgt sehr schnell und sicher.
Der Aufbau ist in wenigen Minuten erledigt. Wenn man Kabel und Base sauber verlegt sind ein paar Minuten mehr einzurechnen.

Hier die Pro und Kon zum Produkt.

Pro:
-schneller, einfacher Aufbau
-Platzsparend zu verstauen (Base und Pedale können Montiert bleiben)
-bequem (auch bei 195cm und 100Kg) längere Sessions problemlos möglich
-optisch ansprechend

Kon:
-Pedalstange für große Pedaleinheiten kompatibel aber der Gurt mit Klettverschluss leider sehr kurz (Spanngurt verschafft Abhilfe)

Ich kann es jedem empfehlen der eine günstige und gute Alternative zu einem RaceRig sucht.

Werde mir mit Sicherheit bald eine größere und dauerhafte Lösung suchen, da das Fahren so viel mehr Spaß macht. Aber für die ersten Runden und zum Testen definitiv eine Kaufempfehlung.
Jeder der schnell ein paar Runden mit Racefeeling drehen will ist damit bestens aufgehoben.

Habe mir vor 2 Wochen den Playseat Challenge in schwarz geholt. Nach mehreren Runden und Einstellungen in verschiedenen Rennspielen (Forza 7, Project Cars 2, AC) kann ich folgendes Fazit geben:

Aufbau:
- leicht und schnell erledigt.

Qualität/Comfort:
- Trotz des einfachen Prinzips sehr stabil und robust,
- Lange sessions sind absolut kein Problem und können
aufgrund des guten Sitzkomforts gehalten werden,
- Passgenauigkeit mit einem FANATEC Set istmöglich
und auch montierbar, lediglich wenn man eine breite
Pedaleinheit hat, wird der mitgelieferte Klettgurt zu
kurz.

Größe und Abmessung:
- auch Aufgebaut kein großer Platzfresser,
- Zusammengeklappt schnell im Schrank oder einer
Nische verstaut (Base und Pedale können montiert
bleiben),
- ich mit 195 cm und 100Kg habe sehr leicht und gut
Platz, Sitze bequem und Stabil, lediglich die
Kopfstütze ist nicht exakt da wo sie sein soll.

Im großen und ganzen kann man den Playseat empfehlen. Er braucht nicht viel Platz, ist Stabil, sieht gut aus und erfüllt seinen Zweck. Auch kann man ihn sehr schnell verstauen wenn man fertig ist und nicht mehr benötigt, was als Argument verwendet werden kann.
Abwicklung und Versand liefen absolut perfekt und reibungslos. Auch hier Daumen hoch!!

Genau was ich gesucht habe. Da ich nicht durchgehend beim Zocken sitze und der Sitz nicht ständig im weg stehen soll, hab ich mich für diesen enstschieden.
Der Sitz kann einfach und schnell zusammen geklapppt werden, ohne dass man Lenkrad und Pedale abbauen muss.
Der Sitz ist stabil gebaut und sehr bequem.
Alles in allem ein Top Produkt für Anfänger und Gelegenheitsfahrer.

This thing is really everything i could have ever wanted. Comfy as F***, stable and big enough for a grown man and everything at a really competitive price point.
I use it in combination with my Thrustmaster T300RS. Everything fits just fine, no need for any fiddling or "custom made" solutions - it just works.
The other big PRO is that you can store this thing in literally any place that is ~25cm wide / high. This way i can play my simulators on a really good rig and still have no issues with the wife complaining about any bulky thing.
I play my racing simulators in in VR and i just have to say this thing makes the overall feeling so much better.

Schon beim Aufbau war ich positiv überrascht. Alles an dem Teil wirkt durchdacht und vermittelt einen „Premium Vibe“. Das gilt im speziellen für den Alcantara Sitz selbst.

Einziges Manko (und meine Begründung für vier Sterne beim Design) ist die Tatsache, dass man Fanatec Elite CSL Pedals nicht ohne weiteres Material (in meinem Fall ne extra angefertigte POM-Platte) montieren kann.

Ich muss sagen dieser Playseat Challenge ist wirklich eine ganz neue Gaming Erfahrung.
Mit diesem machts einfach doppelt soviel spaß.

Zum seat selbst:

Komplett einfach aufzubauen und auch schnell zusammengeklappt,
die Verarbeitung ist makellos,
Positiv ist auch, dass kleine Klettverschlussstripes dabei waren für ein sauberes Kabelmanagement,
Der aufklappbare Rahmen worauf das Lenkrad sitzt ist auch super stabil und man kann sich da ganz einfach reinsetzen.
Der Preis ist mit ca. 200€ villeicht doch etwas hoch aber ich bereue den kauf auf keinen Fall und empfehle den seat jeden der wenig Platz hat.

I raced karts and prototypes when I was younger but those days are all gine since I no longer wish to invest that much time and money away from my wife and my kid.
Although she doesn’t mind me having a simulator at home, she does mind if it’s always going to be “there”. I won’t place it in my kid’s room, I can’t possibly put a rig in the living room, in plain view for my wife’s non-sim racing friends to admire, let alone our bed I raced karts and prototypes when I was younger but those days have passed since I no longer wish to invest time and money away from my wife and my kid. room.
The answer came from Playseat’s Challenge seat and It fits perfectly in my closet. I saw a lot of reviews before buying it and most said that although it isn’t exactly a rig, it is a great product for newcomers into sim racing.
I have over 3000 hours of sim racing under my belt and maybe half of that in real life racing. I ain’t no newcomer, and still I believe it has everything a decent rig should have, the sole exception being the fact that it’s got an up-and-down wobble due to the weight of the wheel and the driver’s hands pushing down on the wheel mount in a springy fashion. My brain quickly adapted though and by the time I was flying through Flugplatz in the Nordschleife I had forgotten everything about that wobble.
In every other regard the structure is stable and sturdy. I use Fanatec hardware including the shifter and the V3 pedals for which I had to do some DIY since the shifter mount from Playseat is not compatible with the Fanatec shifter and the pedals move a lot if not properly attached to the pedal base with some brackets.
The pedal base is very adjustable but the seat position is not as great as I thought it was going to be. To me, the position of the headrest leans too much forward and that put some strain on my upper back, especially when using a VR headset. I still have some adjusting to do though.
The seat is light and easy to lay. The suede is very appealing and the design speaks of racing. You can almost smell the petrol. The seat adapts to the shape of your body since it’s held to the frame by adjustable straps of velcro. Very smart design.
You could of course spend up to 2000$ on high end rigs but in my opinion it’s not going to be worthwhile for just a little more comfort and (that i can relate to) a steadier wheel mount, unless of course you’re all about looks and you want a crazy looking rig.

Make Playseat Challenge V2 steadier on the wheelbase and push the headrest just a tad further back and you get an already great product into a must have for sim racers of all trades.

8/10 overall.

letzten Donnerstag bestellt, am Freitag, per FedEx da gewesen. Da ich ne kleine Wohnung habe, schien mir das die beste Lösung.
Obwohl ich bedenke hatte, Stabilität, Komfort usw. doch nach ein paar Minuten des Aufbaus und Einstellung des Sitzes, was soll ich sagen...sehr bequem. Als Lenkrad nutze ich das
Trustmaster T80 Ferrari 488 GTB Edition. Wegen der Klemmvorrichtung für das Lenkrad muss man allerdings die Bodenplatte versetzen. Ist ja kein Problem, die vier Schrauben der Platte lösen, versetzen, Schrauben wieder anbringen und festziehen. Passt alles perfekt inkl. Pedale. Persönlich spiel ich hauptsächlich PSVR und muss sagen, wow, bin sehr zufrieden. Wenn fertig, Stuhl zusammenklappen und Bingo. Bilder dazu spare ich mir. Gibt ja genügend der anderen Reviewern. Also den Sitz kann ich nur wärmstens empfehlen wenn es um Platzprobleme geht.

Da die meisten Reviews in Englisch sind, hier etwas für die Interessenten aus Deutschland :D. Ich war auf sehr sehr langer Suche nach dem richtigen Racing Wheel Sitz und bin immer wieder auf dieses explizite Modell von PlaySeat gestoßen. Am Anfang hatte mich eigentlich nur der Preis abgeschreckt aber jetzt da ich den Sitz schon seit nunmehr als 2 Wochen benutze, kann ich nur sagen, dass der Sitz das beste Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis anbietet, dass ich gesehen hatte. Das Design ist trotz der Falttechnik richtig schön anzusehen. Die ganzen Materialien sind sehr hochwertig verarbeitet worden und fühlt sich sehr angenehm an. Ich benutze den Sitz mittlerweile auch als Gamingstuhl einfach aus dem Prinzip da der Stuhl sehr angenehm ist und leicht zu bewegen. Die Mobilität und die Möglichkeit das eigene Racing Set daran festzumontieren UND dabei es weg falten zu können war für mich das Kaufargument. Wenn man auf der Suche ist nach einem Racing Stuhl das gut aussehen soll, Stundenlanges Sitzen genießen und vor allem die Flexibilität des wegräumens vereinen will. Hat mit dem PlaySeat Challenge alles richtig gemacht. Übrigens, ich bin 1,80m und habe große Oberschenkel und für mich ist der Sitz dennoch sehr bequem. Falls komplikationen aufkommen sollten, kann man den Sitzwinkel ganz einfach einstellen. Viel Spaß :)

Für alle die nicht viel Platz haben ist der Sitz ideal, das Preis Leistungsverhältnis ist Super. Man kann ganz leicht 3-4 Stunden spielen und es bleibt bequem im Sitz. Wenn man seine Session beendet hat, wird der sitzt zusammengeklappt und in einer Ecke oder im Schrank verstaut. In der Preiskategorie ist das der beste Sitz.

Die Lieferung des playseat war einfach und unkompliziert und innerhalb von 3 Werktagen war das Paket da. Der Aufbau ist kinderleicht und dauert nur ein paar Minuten. Der Stuhl ist aus einem robusten Material und fühlt sich gut an allerdings ist er für Menschen über 1,90m vielleicht ein bisschen zu klein. Ich habe den Stuhl gekauft da er sich zusammen klappen lässt und so wenig Platz weg nimmt was auch noch gut funktioniert wenn man die Pedale und die base am Sitz befestigt lässt.
Natürlich gibt es bessere Sim racing Sitze aber die sind dann auch deutlich teurer. Hier stimmt das Preis leistungs Verhältnis und für den Einstieg oder wenn man wenig Platz hat ist der playseat ideal.

Die Lieferung des Playseat ging schnell und unkompliziert. Es waren alle Teile vorhanden und der Zusammenbau war dank der beiliegenden Anleitung ganz einfach. Das Preis/ Leistungsverhältnis ist top. Der Sitz macht einen sehr robusten Eindruck und man hat keine Angst, dass dort schnell etwas kaputt geht. Ich persönlich habe noch dafür entschieden da man den Sitz zusammen klappen kann und da er so wenig Platz weg nimmt wenn er nicht im Einsatz ist. Für Menschen über 1,90m könnte der Sitz evtl. Ein bisschen zu klein sein, das ist aber der einzige minus Punkt.

Ich habe den Playseat Challenge aus zwei Gründen gekauft
Erstens habe ich keinen Platz für ein Dauerhaftes Rig. Zweitens ist der Preis für die Leistung angemessen, ein dauerhaftes alu Rig o.ä. kostet das 3x oder mehr.

Der Aufbau geht Problemlos, Anleitung ist gut beschrieben und man kann nicht viel falsch machen. Mit Lenkrad anbauen und verschiedene Sitzpositionen testen habe ich ca 30 min gebraucht.
Schrauben fürs Lenkrad (G29) waren auch dabei, super.

Durch die Seitlichen Bänder lässt sich die Sitzposition verändern, so ist eine aufrechte GT Position oder liegende Formel Position möglich.

Auf und abbau ist schnell erledigt und der Sitz passt dann in die Abstellkammer oder Schrank.

Qualität ist super nichts klappert quietscht oder wackelt.

Alles in allem bekommt man ein Gutes Rig für einen vernünftigen Preis.

This is a surprisingly sturdy seat with offers a lot of flexibility both in terms of adjustment and use in limited space. I had put off buying a seat due to the limited space in the TV room and although I had looked at these previously was concerned that they would not be solid enough. A friend bought one and reassured me that they were solid. I have to say that I am really pleased with it and wish I had bought one sooner.

I wanted to upgrade my sim racing setup for a while now. Having used a desk chair and desk clamp to secure the wheel for years, I was looking for a not too expensive, solid and immersive chair. Amazed by its built quality, adjustability, it also offers a wheel plate where I have bolted on my Fanatec CSL elite. Even the 6Nm of power do not give noticeable flex.
I couldn't be happier. The fact it folds away so easily without unmounting the wheel of pedals is an absolute joy! And it takes up to no space as well.
Overall very good product especially for the price range.

If you are faced with the decision to buy a racing seat, there is one model that seems to be impossible to get past. Are all the praise justified, is the seat really as good as many claim? I can anticipate one thing, yes, it is!

Spoiled for choice, isn't it?
Not everyone has the necessary space for a permanent race seat, others don't want it for other reasons. And a desk mounted steering wheel that is constantly screwed on and off? Not many alternatives remain. Of course there are still the classic wheel stands, which have their justification. However, you need a suitable seat for these too. Nobody wants to use a rolling office chair for this, even an armchair is too uncomfortable in the long run. Yes, even a decent gaming chair costs as much as the folding Playseat Challenge. If you start thinking about it now, you already know, yes, a folding seat for simracing is needed.

Unboxing:
When you unbox the Playseat Challenge for the first time, you're surprised how compact everything is. The term "camping chair" in the guise of a racing seat is truly false, because both the fabric cover and the workmanship (including the frame) are robust and of high quality. Once you sit in the seat, there are hardly any vibrations. Everything is firmly in its place. Of course there are differences to a fixed rig whose goal it is to avoid any vibrations. But if you could expect this from a collapsible chair, you would have a wrong idea of what this chair can do. The feedback of the chair is very good, the robust construction leaves no doubt that you can have many hours of fun here permanently.

Rally specialists should be told that even rough steering movements are swallowed by the Playseat Challenge, nothing slips and the fun of the game is not spoiled.

Playing comfort:
I have now spent many hours in front of the monitor and am still very satisfied with the comfort of the racing seat. It folds in and out in under a minute. Accessories such as a digital dashboard (with a small external screen) can be attached as a DIY solution, but of course are not officially supported by the chair. Instead, it scores with a flawless pedal mount that won't slip even when the brakes are applied forcefully. If you want to look for a shortcoming, then there where the hook and loop fastener securing the pedal unit is attached. This loosens from time to time and if you forget the occasional check, it can happen that the pedals slip out of the holder when folding. I circumvent the problem by attaching an additional strap, then everything holds securely. But here we are talking about a little thing, straps just give way.

Steering wheel and pedals:
As steering wheel I use the TMX Pro (the Playstation-pendant is the T150) which is distributed by Thrustmaster. As pedals the well known TP3A. Unfortunately the TMX Pro has the peculiarity that in connection with the seat no mounting with screws is possible. The competition from Logitech G29/G920 makes it better here. The T300 from Thrustmaster can also be screwed on without problems. However, the TMX Pro's clamping device is better than its reputation, and if you want to avoid the steering wheel slipping minimally due to the seat constantly folding up and down, it's best to attach the hook and loop fastener supplied with the chair under the steering wheel. The counterpart on the steering wheel mount of the Playseat Challenge. In combination with the clamping device of the TMX Pro, nothing can slip anymore. But be careful, the hook and loop fastener holds enormously, a new loosening is only possible under effort. In connection with this steering wheel there is an adapter from Ricmotech, with which the TMX Pro can be screwed to the bracket of the Playseat Challenge. This would be the expensive additional solution.

Against tilting:
An important detail that almost goes under is the anti-tilting device at the bottom of the Playseat Challenge. If you forget to pull it out, the Playseat Challenge can tip to the side due to gravity when getting out of the seat. So, don't forget it! But the user manual points this out and is altogether well described.

Save space:
If you're not in a particular hurry, you can also just fold the pedals and push the seat to the side. This saves space and the racing seat can be left standing. But even when folded, the racing seat does not need to hide. When looking in the cupboard every day, the seat invites you to play again and again.

GT or Formula 1?
When it comes to seating comfort, I can reassure anyone. You sit comfortably for many hours. Especially since the seat position can be adjusted from upright (GT position) to half lying (Formula 1 position).

Conclusion:
What remains to be said about the chair? It's a piece of equipment that will provide a lot of fun for a long time, an elementary object of the sim world. As the basis for the steering wheel, it makes a decisive contribution to the fun of the game. After all, who can keep up for a long time when after an hour your back hurts from the couch chair? So it's better to grab a folding chair like this and be rid of your worries. Simracing is becoming more and more popular, the Playseat Challenge provides many reasons why this is so.

Even my wife likes it and actually she started to play Rally for the first time in her life :D
My kid is still too little (3y), but he also asks me to let him drive. He climbs up on my knees and likes to test drive for few minutes.

The Playseat Challange is an excellent seat for those with little space, the frame is more sturdy than i thought it would be and although at this time the seat front seems a little on the high side, it is adjustable and I hope will be more comfortable moving forward, otherwise it is reasonably comfortable and allows me to be much more relaxed whist driving and helps to improve lap times. It definitely suits my purpose.
The order process was easy and was dispatched the same day as the order and arrived as predicted by the Playseat store.
On arrival, it took me approximately 30 minutes or maybe less to unbox and assemble. The seat is well made and well thought out in its construction. Thank you Playseat, this will give me many hours of fun.

Ich hatte mich im Vorfeld schon informiert wie ich das Simracing noch komfortabler gestalten kann. Bis jetzt hatte ich mein G29 am Schreibtisch befestigt. Ich dachte mit einem Wheelstand geht es bestimmt besser. Ich hatte diesen auch schon zu Hause, bis ich zufällig eine Rezession zwischen diesem Wheelstand und dem Playseat Challenge gefunden hatte.
Das Aussehen des Plaseats ließ nicht auf den Komfort schließen, den er tatsächlich hat. Sieht ja wie ein Gartenstuhl aus. Aufgrund des Konzepts, da man nicht wie bei dem Wheelstand mit einem Bürostuhl davor sitzt, war ich sofort begeistert und schaute nach ob ich meinen Wheelstand noch zurückschicken konnte. Ja ich hatte Glück. Einen Tag vor Ablauf der Rückgabe frist konnte ich die Rücklieferung veranlassen.

Nachdem ich den Playseat Challenge bestellt hatte, wurde er innerhalb kürzester Zeit geliefert. Er wurde gut verpackt geliefert.
Der Aufbau stellt sich sehr leicht da und kann bequem alleine erfolgen. Innerhalb von 10-15 Min. ist er schon einsatzbereit.
Ich bin 164cm und konnte ihn schnell so einrichten, dass ich auch längere Zeit ermüdungsfrei frei fahren kann. Ich wollte einmal Platz genommen, gar nicht mehr aufhören zu fahren.
Ein herausragendes Merkmal ist auch, dass er einfach zusammenklappbar ist und mit dem Lenkrad nicht viel Platz wegnimmt und so schnell wieder abgebaut ist, wenn der Platz anderweitig benötigt wird.
Jetzt habe ich auch das richtige Rennerlebnis für einen guten Preis.

I've always wanted a sim setup but couldn't afford it and most of all I never had the space. The Playseat has a great ergonomic feel and is extremely comfortable. The material of the seat is excellent and shape formed with just strap supports makes you feel like you're in an F1 style racing seat. The frame is supportive and sturdy. The main USP is that it took 25mins to put together and is easy to fold away with the my wheel and pedals. Every aspect from feel to comfort to functional had been thought of.

For a long time I was thinking about Playseat Challenge, since living in a flat prohibits me having a big sim racing chair.
Challenge was the chair that fits all the criteria:
1. Foldable
2. Comfortable
3. A bit pricey, but still an okay price
4. Nice quality of materials and overall build quality

Assembly process does not require a lot of time, the initial correction to your body -- this takes quite some time, but it's only at first with minor corrections over the first time playing with it, after that you are good to use it without the need to correct anything.

My usual racing sessions consist of 1.5-3h of driving, not getting up. Before I got Challenge, I was using regular generic dining chair. It was uncomfortable to use and since pedals weren't fixated, had some minor inconveniences that made me poorly focus on racing.
After getting Challenge, I no longer suffer from some random pains, I focus purely on the race, since my wheel, shifter and pedals are fixated properly and do not bother me during racing.

I highly recommend this chair to anyone who is:
1. A beginner and starts getting into sim racing
2. An advanced sim racer who is constricted with the space at home and needs a compact solution (there's just no better alternative to it, except doing everything DIY, which can be even pricier in the end)

Overall I am satisfied by this model and I am happily using it every day.
Thank you, Playseat!

P.S. Ordered my chair on Sunday, it was shipped out on Monday.
Came on Friday and it was a day later than promised by FedEx, but it is because of virus and border shutdown.
Still would say it was very fast shipping and much needed fun delivered right to my home in such unpleasant times in the world.

It's hard to find something that served as a realistic endeavour of racing, while being compact enough to be put away.

I looked at tables, racing rigs on amazon, and then i stumbled upon this. While putting it together you do certainly question if this is what you paid for, but upon hopping in the playseat and running raps in grab Turismo, you quickly see what it is all about.

For a person as myself with a larger frame, I fit in the seat and was definitely held in place. Having the ability to adjust the wheel and pedals to your seating position is great, and serves as a way to have other drivers fit in the seat comfortably.

Already hooked, grabbing more games, and my friends are already looking into getting their own playseats.

I highly suggest getting one, and changing your racing experience moving forward.

I am surprised how heavy duty it is, better built than I was expecting. Adjusting the driving position took minutes using the velcro and provided allen keys. Comfort is great no more stiff backs for this guy. Now I have a stellar race cockpit that can be put away when not being used. Playseat has a winner with the challenge, it is sturdy, comfortable, and super fun.

Ordering and delivery was quick. Unboxing was exciting as I’d wanted a play swat for a long time. Assembly was fairly quick and instructions were clear and precise. Use is very simple and comfort is good. Getting out of the seat is tricky but once you’ve done it a few time’s it gets easier. Got my Logitech G29 mounted very easily and all the adjustments make it perfect for all my racing games. I love this seat! A daily use. Folds away at the end of the day and hides easily away from my 2 year old who would climb all over it if he could. Cannot recommend this enough!

This chair is a bit pricey unless you get a deal on it, BUT I have to say I'm very impressed with what it is! This seat was very well thought out and designed. It is super comfortable (even with my bad back) and the material is quality! This is an absolute must have if you are going to get into a force feedback racing wheel. A stand just doesn't do the job of giving you that actual driving feel. This does. No more sliding pedals. It is surprisingly stable (chair and wheel). It's so adjustable in every way. My Fanatec F1 wheel bolts on clean! I'm a perfectionist and I can say I'm very very happy with this purchase. it's perfect for someone who doesn't want to spend thousands of dollars on a big permanent rig. It folds up and stores easily. If your even considering it, just buy one now. I promise you you will be glad you did!

Living in a 550 sq ft studio with limited storage, space was a serious issue and consideration when purchasing my racing seat setup. I wanted something that could fold up and be stored easily, but that also was comfortable for extended playing sessions. After reading a ton of reviews, I decided on the Playseat Challenge and couldn't be happier. I'll break my review into numerous sections to review everything:

Ordering/Shipping: I ordered my Playseat during their Black Friday sale and got a great deal on it. The order was processed quickly and I received regular updates via e-mail on the status of my order. I had ordered my Playseat on a Sunday. It was delivered on Friday - a mere 5 days to get from the Netherlands to my home in Washington, DC. I received regular shipping updates from the shipper as well, which were much appreciated.

Setup/Installation: The Playseat comes in a decent sized box with just a few pieces to assemble. The instructions were clear and easy to follow and everything was super simple to put together. No tools are required either as they provide everything you could need. I had the entire thing set up in around 5 minutes, which is about as good as you can get for a "plug and play" setup.

Quality: The overall quality is top notch, especially for the price. I'm 6'5" (~1.96m) and 200 pounds (~90kg) and fit comfortably in the seat. The rails are heavy duty enough to where I feel no flex from them when I sit down in the seat and it doesn't flex or move around on me when getting out. The simulated Alcantara they use on the seat itself is great quality and feels somewhat similar to the Alcantara on my actual race seat, and breathes just as well. The swing arm setup for the steering wheel which allows you to get out and into the seat is a basic setup, but works flawlessly and seamlessly.

Design: The section for the pedals is adjustable in or out, so you can really customize where your feet are on the pedals, which is extremely nice.

The overall cradle design of the seat itself is extremely comfortable and very close to my actual racing seat. While you don't get the side bolster support you would from an actual race seat, you obviously don't need it since you're not experiencing any lateral g forces while playing. The straps that support the seat as well are near perfectly placed and don't interfere or bother you at all. While the seat is not adjustable forwards or backwards and has no adjustable lumbar support, I've never found that to be a problem. It seems to be perfectly fit for the proper form while racing.

The mount for the steering wheel is properly centered and easily lifts up and out to allow entry and exit from the seat. The wheel mount is also adjustable up or down like a telescoping steering wheel in a car would be. My one complaint would be that the wheel isn't adjustable up or down. I'd prefer if it was adjustable up or down, but you can adjust the telescope side of the wheel mount pretty easily to compensate pretty well for this.

Overall: If you have limited space and want a great racing seat setup, I would highly recommend the Playseat Challenge! It's extremely comfortable, well built and designed, folds up and stores easily and looks great! I've spent easily 40 hours in my seat since I received it and have recommended it to all of my racing friends who have mentioned in the past wanting a home setup. Overall, I wouldn't hesitate to purchase one again!

I am using a Logitech Momo wheel with the Playseat Challenge. All I had to do was remove the center desk clamp from the Momo. The two "front edge" clamps work fine to secure the Momo to the baseplate using a couple pieces of wood to create the "desk depth" that the Momo clamps expect.
Very happy!

I bought this seat because at the moment i don't have enough space for full sim-rig, but i want to have proper siting position and right wheel location. After assembling this fold-able rig i immediately noticed that it is sturdier than most of reviews are saying, especially in wheelbase plate fixation. It stays in place and there is no movement in any direction with Fanatec CSW 2.5 wheelbase, and after using it for good 10-12 hours i can say it fully supports its power and there is no movement in either direction. seat is comfortable and can be adjusted to different people liking. Assembly instructions are clear, materials are high quality, shipping was faster than promised (arrived 1 day earlier). 11/10 :)

Got it, set it up, race. This is the most comfortable chair I’ve sat in and it’s perfect for racing without going for it’s bigger siblings. I wish I got it sooner because the way everything is set up and the adjustments make it more comfortable to race in and I do feel more relaxed and faster compared to using a desk and computer chair. The quality is great and it’s really stable for what it is. Highly recommend this for its portability and overall comfort for this price range.

Just got into sim racing so I'm a new to it. Picked up a wheel and pedals but knew I needed a chair that was sturdy, comfortable and did t take up alot of room but still looked cool. Well the playseat challenge checks all these boxes. Super easy to put together, very comfortable for adults and kids, holds my wheel, pedals and shifter nice and secure and it really enhances the sim racing experience. When I'm not using it folds up in a few seconds and I just put it in my closet. This seat is affordable and nice very happy with this purchase. Would love to try there other products !!!

I had recently purchased Logitech G29 racing wheel from discount and naturally only after few tries I started to want a proper seat too. Since I have a girlfriend who I share the apartment with something very fixed was not an option. Luckily I found Playseat Challenger and ordered it.

Product arrived well packed and the box was way smaller than I expected (even was able to transport it in my Porsche which is rare for any kind of boxes). After opening the box instructions were very clear and assembly of the seat was quick and easy and entirely tools free. My Logitech wheel and pedals also fit perfectly on it.

I have been using the chair for some weeks now almost 5 hours a day and I can tell it is way higher quality for the price than I expected. It is very comfortable to use even long times and haven't shown any sign of being too weakly built on any part. Also it folds away while keeping my pedals and wheel on it so zero extra hassle for taking them on and off either. In the design they seem to have thought of everything since there is even a small pull out side support to stop the seat from falling when you open the wheel part to get into the chair.

It is first racing seat I have no regrets for going for this one. It doesn't feel any worse than my friends more expensive fixed one. Only happens to be cheaper and way more girlfriend friendly.

I did not have high expectations, as it looks like a garden chair on the pictures. But when it arrived I was blown away by the quality and stability. Installation was done in 15 minutes including the adjustments to my size. It's very comfortable, even for longer sessions. The only thing bothering me sometimes is the VR headset being to close to the headrest. But that's a "me" problem.

I'm using this mainly for iracing and my first 3 races produced two wins in this chair (neither me nor playseat claim that you will win races with this ;)

I love the overall idea and design, it folds up great! Just a few little things you should know, there's nothing included for a separate shifter (e.g. G27) which is annoying, and there are metal pieces right around the hip area which dig into me a bit - probably not as big of an issue if you're a little smaller... Recommended overall!

I've only had my seat for a couple days and I'm pretty happy with it. The quality of the seat entirely is really well made. The fabric is very soft and the frame is solid and the velcro strap seem to be some kind of magic holding my 260lbs self without worry. My only grievance with the seat would be that it's a bit small. Not in the sense of usability, but being I read that it has a 330lbs weight limit, I figured it would be a bit wider than it is. I got thick legs and the metal oval rings on the straps for holding it vertical, dig into my legs, Even though I have the seat laying fairly flat. And let me tell you, there is no "leg room", with the swing arm design and the narrowness of the seat, everything is a bit cramped.

Overall though I really like the playseat challenge. It's not without its faults, but for the price this is a really good option. I just wish it was a bit wider. NOTE: there is no shifter placement on this chair, you can get the official shifter mount bar from playseat, but I recommend rigging up your own shifter mount with some clamps and angle iron.

After a long time researching options to upgrade to a proper seat & wheel combo, I took the plunge and bought the Playseat Challenge ... and I do not regret it!
Ordered directly from the Playseat Store, delivered in 4 days. very easy to put together and easy to adjust. I am an average height and weight and the seat is very comfortable. I am using the Playseat Challenge with a Logitech G29, and had no problems installing.

The most amazing thing is how it folds up to a very reasonable size, even with wheel and pedals hardbolted - even my wife is impressed (relieved) that it can be easily stored.

All in all, you just can't go wrong with this. If you are stuck for space it is a no-brainer, and even if you have lots of space it's worth getting too. Now i just need to learn how to drive properly ....

Delivery was not under 48 hours, but as it came to Chicago from Europe for free in 72 you can't argue much. Have spent a few multi hour sessions in the challenge and have been surprised by the comfort. I went with this over the other options because of the fold and store capability. The fun/comfort and enjoyment of the first few days had me looking at the other playseats on offer. If you are 50/50 on getting one of these versus sticking with a controller, take the seat, worth it by all accounts.

The Playseat Challenge is an excellent seat for the average sim racer looking for a more fun experience. The solid build quality, comfy seating position and customisability takes sim racing to the next level of enjoyment, all while being foldable and fitting under my bed when not required.

Unfortunately, there is a minor drawback which makes the seat slightly annoying. The servo mounting position isn't quite rigid and there's definitely some movement there, detracting from the whole experience slightly.

All in all though, the seat is excellent value for those looking for a smaller footprint racing seat.

I ordered the challenge seat and it arrived prior to the expected delivery date. The unit was well packaged and very easy to assemble, just follow the pictured instructions and it took about 15 min before I was already to race. The design of this rig is very well thought out and will adjust accommodate any size person, comfort is amazing. This rig improved my driving ability, skill and most of all comfort.

I love to drive, not that great but I love it anyway. I am always stuck trying to get my TV tray in the right position and the pedals locked into the carpet. What a PAIN!

Guess who got a Playseat Challenge, right, I did...

Love it!

Easy to setup. Very solid, especially since it folds up. It is also pretty comfortable but a bit narrow for my somewhat over-size hiney.

Time to race, pull it out, fold down the pedals, sit down, drop the wheel and everything is perfectly setup.

Company coming, it is out of sight in 30 seconds.

I love this chair and wish I had gotten it sooner. If you are on the fence, come on in, the water is perfect, you will not regret it.

Ok, I'm a recovering car/F1/adrenaline junkie and one thing led to another, bought a high end NVIDIA gaming card, then a gaming keyboard, then a TMX Thrustmaster, and it wouldn't fit on my desk SO I bought this chair! I live in an apt in Manhattan (a big one, with two kids and wife, however, so no room and flack will be taken about filling it up with my "junk..."
GAME CHANGER. With the wheel (and the arguably weak pedals with the TMX, but who cares, can upgrade later :)); and this chair, force feedback on high and I'm having an absolute ball playing F12018, Dirt, and attempting Asseto Corsa but damn that game is twitchy. I have driven cars on multiple race tracks around the world and well, I just don't have the time to do that anymore. Look, the thing is rock solid, folds really well, and you can the guys that designed and built this thing give a sh*. Not some cheap Asian knock-off, poorly designed item. They ship it to you from Europe via Fedex (included, amazing, you can track it all the way)! JUST GET IT! You can see the other kids stuff etc. in this pic, but you can also see how nicely it tucks away, and just open, plug in, and ready to go!

Ordered PlaySeat with no big expectations, but with trust that is going to be a good product. And I was not mistaken. Impressed by the quality and it seems like its going to last for a long time. The seat is very stable even with the aggressive drive.
The only weak point is that the seat is not enough adjustable to be used by kids smaller than 150cm, therefore my little son needs to wait for a couple of more years. I believe that can be fixed by making liftable pedals frame.

So, there is no way that I can have a full racing rig in the middle of my room in front of my TV. At the time, I am limited on space but still wanted to play some Xbox racing games with my Logitech G wheel. Dragging out a shaky table wasn't working either.
Now within a few minutes, I am comfortable and ready to race! Everything is mounted securely to the Playseat Challenge. Plug in the USB and power cord. Folds up when I'm done. I'm really impressed with how stable the whole rig is. Feels just like a racing bucket seat and has many different adjustments to get comfortable.

If you are looking for an wheel stand, look no further. I have been thinking about purchasing a wheel stand for a long time. I had a metal printer stand at work doing nothing and thought i give it a try. It was close without adjustability so, i thought about purchasing a foldable wheel stand. Then i thought i had limited space. The printer stand was a pain to move and set up. So how much better would a wheel stand make? Then i saw this Playseat Challege on You Tube, and glad i did. The set up and take down is easy, since it's all in one. The seat is comfy and once you have it adjusted to your liking, it can be folded up and ready again when you are. I would recommend to anyone that would need to setup and take down when needed.

This chair hits the ideal sweet spot in terms of function and cost. Clever designing and the use of quality materials never makes the Playseat Challenge feel like a cheap choice.
The only ding I have to give it (and it's a quarter star off, not the whole one) is the triangle anchors for the arm rest Velcro bands. The triangle shape sticks out just enough to be noticeable pressing against your outer thigh. Now, I've sat in the chair for at least two hours and have never had any bruising, but an alternate design choice here could eliminate this one contact point.

I live in a smaller apartment with little closet space but I am very involved with Flight simulator's and Racing simulator's. The biggest challenge for me is I don't have the space for a large permanent rig setup and I didn't want to have to tear down my rig each time I have company over then have to set it back up again. The Playseat Challenge accommodates my needs in a couple of ways. First off its easily foldable when I need to move it and you don't have to remove your controllers beforehand. Just fold it up and stash it in your closet or in the corner of your bedroom or living room and that takes about 1-2 minutes in all to do. Secondly the Playseat Challenge works with my racing sim controllers as well as my flight sim controllers and if you have a tiny bit of knowledge on how to modify then you can easily rig up a shifter on the side of the seat as well as a throttle quadrant for flying. The last great benefit for the Playseat Challenge is it DOES NOT BREAK THE BANK. It's the most affordable seat out there on the market and it's more comfortable then many other seats in the similar price range and believe me when your sitting in this seat for hours at a time you need it to be comfortable and not make you sore which after hundreds of hours of use already I can say I never am. Oh yeah one last added benefit is its adjustable which means if you prefer to sit straight up you can, if you prefer to lean far back you can as well or you can have anything in-between to exactly fit your comfort zone. Dare I even say you could even take a small nap in this chair if you where so inclined to do so by leaning it all the way back. I hope my review has given someone out there answers to their questions when considering a Playseat purchase!

This is my first experience with putting together a sim rig. I am limited on space and needed something I could put away when not using, while still providing the immersion that a full cockpit does. The playseat challenge delivers in spades. From the build quality to the mechanical design I am thoroughly impressed.

Having the wheel fold out makes it very easy to get in and out, while allowing you to have an excellent stability and cockpit environment when in use. I am 5'8 and had no trouble getting I to a comfortable position, with plenty of adjustment available to fit my 6 ft friend as well. The simple strap and backstop system means your pedals are rock solid without having to hardmount them. And the sliding system means you have lots of room to move the pedals and get into the perfect position.

The seat is comfortable, with thick durable material and heavy duty velcro straps that can be adjusted to affect the support and seating angle. While not the easiest system, you can't really adjust while sitting in the seat, it only took me about 10 min of trial and error when I first set it up and haven't thought about it since. I can't really think of a better system for this chair that wouldn't increase complexity, price or weight so I can't fault Playseat for the velco set up. It works well, and is a good solution.

It's not the most stable platform, which is to be expected from something as light as this. However your body weight keeps it well on the ground, and to be honest the little movement that the force feedback causes adds to the immersion for me, as some of the ffb is transmitted into my most, much in the same way motion from a car would be. However I have no qualms about the durability of the chair.

The only concern I have is the plastic piece that locks the wheel carrier in place. I feel that if you didn't properly line up the metal tab with the slot in the plastic and forced it closed to many times that it would potentially break. However I am careful to line it up Everytime I use it and don't think it will break barring user error. I would have liked to see that part be metal as well though, for piece of mind.

Overall, I am very happy with my purchase. I got it on discount, bit would t hesitate to purchase at full price.

Solid 4 out of 5 from me, and a huge step up from other small or cpact alternatives. Great job Playseat!

I was aprehensive about ordering this as it was a decent amount and I was a casual gamer. I took the chance and couldn't be more pleased. The seat was easy to assemble and is as easy to use as all the company promotions say it is. It took my driving game to the next level and I am driving much better than I ever did with just a controller. My only issue is that it's a little narrow in the knee area for those with bigger legs. I'm about 5'11" and about 230 and the bracket for the seat strap digs into my legs a little bit right above my knees. It's not a deal breaker though, as it's easy to ignore while you're racing. Overall, the seat is worth the money, even if you're a casual gamer.

I'm glad I finally decided to purchase a racing seat! It's crazy how much a low racing seat changes how you feel while you play a video game. I use a Thrustmaster TMX Pro with the Playseat Challenge. The only problem when using the TMX is that the clamps hit the bar that supports the metal plate you clamp your wheel to. This is causing me to buy a hard mount adapter for the TMX wheel that I found online. The chair takes a little bit to get adjusted correctly as I am 6 feet 1 inches tall. I was able to get perfectly comfortable and love this seat. Overall I easily recommend it to anyone who needs to be able to quickly move their racing setup and/or fold it to put it away.

Recently got the playseat challenge to accompany my Logitech G29. Quite simply, I am over the moon with the product. The quality of the materials generate great comfort especially when it comes to long sessions.

The seat itself adds to the immersion factor of simracing. It really is a must to take your experience to another level on a reasonably tight budget or tight space.

The seat is perfect if you are limited on space or need to move it around a lot. It is light weight, can be folded up in a minute and laid back out again swiftly.

The stand that the wheel connects to is very sturdy and perfect for force-feed back wheels such as the g29. The plate can also be adjusted along with the pedal plate for comfort.

In short, I would definitely recommend this seat due to the great value and quality you receive. A highly comfortable and sturdy rig that is perfect for those who are on a tighter budget and lacking space

When my seat arrived, it was like Christmas morning. The shipment arrived 2 business days after my purchase which is amazing, especially considering that I am in the US. The seat itself was very easy to set up. The instructions were very clear. I had the chair assembled and ready for an initial shakedown in about 10 minutes. Adjusting the seat to find my most comfortable position was a process that took a couple days of trial and error. While this may seem like a long time, it really wasn't, and the belt system used to suspend/adjust position makes this seat extremely custom fitting.

I was immediately shocked at how much better I could focus on driving instead of wrestling with a wheel stand or pedal movement.

Overall the seat feels very sturdy. I am a big guy, 6'2" (~188cm) and 230 lbs (~104 kg), so this really says a lot.

All of this AND it folds up! Are you kidding me? This feature makes for a high spousal approval rating.

My only issue so far has been the retaining piece that secures the steering wheel arm. It appears to have gotten bent at some point. This causes a little movement of the arm. This doesn't make the seat unusable, but it is just annoying. I am hoping that I can replace the part.

This seat is a great deal, and at its price, it is a no-brainer.

After months (if not years) of tricky installation of my racing wheel, I FINALLY found the seat that suits all needs.
- My wheel fits perfectly on this seats (and I'm not afraid anymore to break the table on which I fixed it before)
- I can use the screen in the living room (the biggest at home) without having to move the screen or putting in place a crazy installation.
I simply move the seat (with everything attached on it and cable tighten with the equipment provided), in front of the TV, plug the 2 cables (Power and USB), run a couple of races and then move it back to his closet.
Being able to store/hide the seat in a closed (or anywhere) is a life changer as the "lady of the house" is not complaining anymore about my stuff lying around :D

Thank you playseat for this amazing product!!

As a car designer, knowing the ergonomics of racing seats, this product is quite good for such simple structure. I was very skeptic in the beginning, however after ordering it, it blew me away.

1. Delivery was quite faster than promised in emails. Therefore were very happy when i received earlier than i expected.

2. Construction was quite simple, not too much hassle.

3. Sitting process is also cool, when you see right away you don't feel the comfort but after sometime, you feel the ergonomics are good. I wish steering part was adjustable, so you can bring closer to yourself. But still really good.

4. Overall impressions are quite positive. Worths every penny. Definitely awesome for such budget. Please keep it up!

I had been looking for a simulator cockpit for a while as using a rolling chair with my computer desk was causing problems, usually it's hard to heel-toe if the pedals move away from you every time.

Being an average married 30 year old, my wife controls every aspect of my life, and thank god she let's me have an office where I can play video games with her permission, but she wasn't going to let me add a big non collapsible sim rig to the room. WHAT AN EYESORE she would think, and so that wasn't going to happen.

THANK YOU TO PLAYSEAT for making a rig which folds up to the size of about 2 folding chairs stacked on eachother, because of this I was able to slowly convince my wife to let me get the rig. My cables are long enough that all I have to do it's fold it up and move it off to the side of my desk when not in use, and I can unfold it and be back in action when I want to play in no time.

Now I'm heel-toeing like a boss, breaking all my old lap records, and looking good doing it.

Build quality is much better than expected given the low price, everything is very solid and I was even able to mount my shifter on the side with minimal wobble.

Can't recommend this thing more. Thank God I found out about it.

Very nice, comfortable, enjoyable and compact at the same time.
Stable enough for slim guy and G25, easy to get in/out.

The alcantara material is very nice and comfortable, I really like how compact and how easy it is to (un)pack it. Disconnect power adapter/usb put them inside the chair fold the chair, strap it on top, fold pedals, strap them - and that's it - can put it aside and clear the space.

I use it with G25 w/o shifter, Oculus Rift, racing in AC. Previously mounted G25 on computer table and sat on dining chair - obviously quite an improvement from that - also feel my times/consistency improved with it.

Cool product, thanks.

The play seat is better than I expected. Heavier than I expected (which is a good thing). Fun and comfortable for hours and easily adapts to different size people.

The only ways I can see to make it better would be a tilt option for the headrest and a slider, fore and aft, for the wheel.

Keep up the good work. I’m going to get another for my trailer.

Purchased after returning stand with center post. The Playseat Challenge was recommended by my brother. Setup was easy and straight forward. In use the seat is comfortable (average height and heavy - not fat build) and easy to use. I noticed in a forum where it was mentioned that the seat could constrict at the thighs, I have not noticed any problem. I like the seating position and feel.In play it is stable and holds the wheel (TM300RS) firmly and steadily. The pedals work well with the velcro strap holding them securely in place. The entire assembly folds easily and quickly and is easy to store when not in use. Overall I am extremely pleased with the Playseat Challenge and would recommend it to others looking for an easy to use and not overly expensive gaming rig.

I am what you would call a non-gamer, but my kids are so into racing games right now, and cars in general, that I decided to just go for it and buy them a race seat, wheel, and pedal setup. In summary, I couldn’t be happier. Very easy to set up, extremely comfortable, and surprisingly realistic to a high performance race seat. This is the first and last seat anyone will ever need to buy. Works great, extremely high quality, great instructions, and just well engineered all around. Thank you for making such a great product!

I ordered the play seat challenge mostly for the easy storage. I don't have a ton of room so this is easy to store. I haven;t been able to use it much because of problems with my 458 wheel, but the few times I have it has been great. Ordered right from the store, came pretty quick, about a week, but worth the wait.
I am short , a little over weight, so it is no problem getting in,a challenge getting out though!! I would load a picture, but do not have a wheel attached at this time, hopefully getting fixed!!
I am looking forward to a lot of fun racing action!Thanks play seat challenge for making a great product!!

After recently purchasing the Oculus Rift and some driving games I was looking for a wheel and chair. I got the Logitech G920 with pedals and began looking for something to place it on. A full sized racing chair was not a possibility. The prices were kind of ridiculous and I wanted to be able to store it easily when not in use. I was looking at the wheel stands and was about to pull the trigger on one. I wasn't sure what chair I would use with it and couldn't understand how it could possibly hold the wheel very securely. Then I came across the Playseat Challenge. I am glad I happened upon the perfect solution.

After reading the reviews I decided to order. I couldn't believe how quickly it got to the United States. (3 days, I think!) The outer packaging was slightly damaged, but the second inner box was in perfect condition. I unpacked it and had it assembled in about 15 minutes. The Logitech wheel fit perfectly and secured with the included bolts. I was able to adjust the angle of the wheel platform, sitting position, and distance to the pedals so it fit perfectly. I am 6'3" 220lbs. This thing was plenty big, and sturdy enough for me to flop into it. It was also adjustable enough to work for my 9 year old. If you are much bigger than me it may get a little tight. The seat is about 19 inches wide and around your knees, where the wheel supports come down, is about 16.5 inches. Your legs angle in toward the pedals at that point and it fits me well with a little extra room.

Everybody wanted to take a turn once I got it set up. The immersion is incredible between the force feedback on the wheel being passed onto the chair and the VR goggles. Did I mention this thing is comfortable? I told my wife to come check it out. The VR games made her sick to her stomach, but she comented on how comfortable the chair was. She said she wanted to watch a movie in it. I told her to get out and I got back to driving. She can get her own. For something that looks like a lawn chair in the box the Velcro straps across your back, molded headrest, and sturdy frame give excellent support. The wheel and pedals are held securely and allow you to really muscle them around without them going anywhere.

Storing it away is as easy as the other reviews say. Fold the frame, strap, fold the pedals, strap, and slide it into a corner. No more than two minutes. When you unfold it the side Velcro straps put it right back into the position you had it in previously.

For little more than a quality wheel stand, do yourself a favor and pick this up instead.

So I was a little skeptical of this thing before I bought it. I mean $250 for basically a lawn chair with a piece of metal over your lap? How can it be worth that much? But I read some reviews, I was tired of my cheap setup, and I needed something that allowed me to keep my living room space too. So I pulled the trigger, and I haven't regretted it since.

This thing is awesome. Super comfortable, great quality alcantara, great mounting points for the T150 (with Ricmotech adapter), and it even included hardware! The only reason I was frustrated by that was because I went and got the exact same bolts it came with because I didn't realize it had them with it!

You can sit in the chair for hours on end and not worry about it, it doesn't get too hot, and there really isn't any noticable movement in the steering wheel plate.

10/10 would recommend, totally worth the price. Just buy the thing already, you know you want it!

This seat is perfect for enhancing your sim experience while trying to save a little space. I live in a condo and have a 5 month old son so saving space is definitely at the top of the list when I was searching for the right seat. It also works great with the thrustmaster t gt wheel!!! I was worried that the t gt would be too bulky or heavy but it works fine. I have the T3PA-Pro pedals and even though the provided strap doesn't fit over the pedals, the "pedal tray" (I'll call it) still holds the pedals firm in place. It makes it even better that it is possible to have a nice, affordable, and functional option out there for sim enthusiasts to still be able to enjoy their favorite racing games. Playseat bravo on this design, I could have leapt for joy when it arrived at my door last week!

I am a Disabled Veteran that lost his left thumb which greatly changed my ability to game. I love racing and first person shooter games but found it very hard to play anymore. Since I no longer work I was on the market for a seat for my Logitech g920 wheel and pedals to make racing easier for me. With the lack of funds and the wife riding me about money I found the Playseat Challenge and decided to buy it because they offered free shipping and it was priced right. When it showed up the setup was quick and easy. It took a few minutes to adjust it to me and I was off racing. Having severe back problems after five surgeries I was worried about the comfort but I am able to sit in it all day racing with no problems. I will absolutely suggest this product and company to everyone. I will also upgrade to better products from them as funds allow. Thank you for your quick delivery and great product!!

Very easy build,
And finally, talk about space save out of sight when not needed , just folds away and take no space what so ever , freakin brilliant,,

The Playseat Challenge has raised my fun level to the max when I am racing on my Xbox. I used to sit in a regular chair with my steering wheel attached to a table, but now I'm sitting in a perfect semi-reclined position to use the steering wheel and the pedals. I'm a large man at 240 lbs., but I fit in the Playseat without a problem and it is comfortable for hours. It was easy to assemble, and I can easily fold it up and put it away when I'm done.

I am new to sim racing and did a lot of research online to try and find the right platform for my Thrustmaster T300rs wheel and pedal set. I needed a portable solution, since I don't have the room for a full racing seat setup (or the funds to buy one). It came down to the Playseat Challenge or one of the competing wheel stands. Many online reviews stated that they ended up replacing their wheel stands with a Playseat Challenge, and they wished they had bought the Challenge first. That really helped me decide, and I'm glad I avoided that mistake. The Challenge is everything and more than I expected, and even though it was a little more than I had hoped to spend, I've discovered that it is well worth the price. I highly recommend the Challenge to anyone who only has room for a portable racing seat. Don't make the wheel stand mistake, save up for a Playseat Challenge. You won't regret it.

Like most game console drivers, I can only dream of having a full sized driving seat setup. Room limitations and the need to move my wheel out of the room so family life can resume, have led to multiple wheel mount purchases. Finding a decent wheel stand is not too hard, but that still leaves the chair dilemma, the need for comfortable chair with good driving position that is portable. A quick Internet search led me to the Playseat Challenge. It is the perfect answer comfort, stability, and portability.

The Challenge arrived in the USA in less that a week and was well packaged, double boxed, and in perfect condition. Assembly was a simple process and was completed by following the clearly illustrated and diagrams in the manual. There are no language barriers to overcome; just follow the pictures and adjust the seat to position of your choosing. My Thrustmaster 300 wheel fit perfectly with the pre- drilled holes that accommodate most major wheel companies' products. An allen wrench is included along with mounting screws so there is no hunting for tools in the garage.

As far as driving goes, I can drive for much longer and in greater comfort using this seat. It is quite stable, though getting in and out of the seat takes some getting used to especially when the chair is in a steeply reclined position like I use. Once you get some practice egress is easy (I am 65 so...). Once I got to driving I shaved two seconds off my best lap time at Abu Dhabi and I am consistently faster than I was with my wheel stand and chair. The wheel does move up and down a bit, but it is not noticeable while driving and blends with road surface irregularities and bumps quite realistically.

Setting the seat up and taking it down are faster and easier than my previous wheel stand and chair. It requires only one trip to the closet instead of two and everything I need to race is right there. I can't recommend this chair highly enough for anyone who needs portability, comfort, and more speed!

Arrived quickly from overseas and setup was pretty easy. Took quite a bit of Velcro adjustments to get my ideal sitting position, but once it's set, you don't need to mess with it again. It's basically like an inclined hammock and super comfy, can sit in it for hours with no issues.

My only complaint, and this is minor, is the mounting surface for the wheel base. It's fairly sturdy, but even so - when mounting a Thrustmaster T300RS-GT Edition, there is some up/down wobble when steering. I have never used a wheel before so I didn't know the base and wheel would be so heavy to cause this, but to be fair, it's about as sturdy as engineering will allow for a portable/fold-able chair.

It's not problematic when playing because you're immersed in racing and don't really notice, but in the future when I have more space I will absolutely get a full rig so the wheel feels rock solid. I get a bit enthusiastic when driving and tend to push/pull the wheel and I fear I may break the mounting surface eventually on this product.

I thought that after getting a racing wheel my sim experience was changed, but I didn't expect it to change so dramatically after getting a racing seat...
Space is an issue here, and I was looking for something that I can easily stow away when not playing, and can quickly set up when I have 20-30 minutes to burn on the road. A friend pointed out the Challenge, and I shortly had one ordered.
Shipping was quick, setup was a breeze, and once I sat in and played once I can't seem to get back to the "casually grabbing a controller and racing a couple laps".
Totally worth it, and I was actually surprised by the build and fabric quality. Highly recommended.

Hallo Leute,

ich habe mir den Playseat wie warscheinlich die meisten gekauft da ich einfach keinen Platz für einen fest installiereten hatte und der Aufbau am Küchentisch
1. zu lang gedauert hat
2. nach einigen Stunden des spielens hatte ich wiederum einige Stunden mit meinem Rücken zu kämpfen
3. einfach keine optimale Sitzposition hin zu kriegen war.

Ich bin von diesem Sitz mehr als begeister !!! Warum?
1. Es ist kein Camping Stuhl !!!
2. Sehr sehr wertig und durchdacht konstuiert
3. ZUSAMMENKLAPBAR innerhalb von 2 Min auf bzw abgebaut
4. Fantastische Einstellmöglichkeiten bieten
5. Man den Sitz inklusive Pedale und Lenkrad einfach in den Schrank schmeißen kann.

Da ich leider keinen Platz für ein "festes" Simracing Setup habe bin auf der Suche nach einer Alternative auf den Playseat Challenge gestoßen. Lieferung und Aufbau ging flott. Die wheelbase des Fanatec CLS Elite ließ sich ohne Probleme mit den mitgelieferten Schrauben befestigen. Die Pedale musste ich jedoch mit Kabelbindern befestigen.

Die Sitzposition ist gut, vielleicht etwas zu nah am Lenkrad. Das eigentlocje Problem sind jedoch die Pedale. Wenn man richtig hart auf das Loadcell Bremspedal tritt kann es schonmal vorkommen, dass aich die Pedale trotz Befestigung nach vorne, und sich der komplette Sitz nach hinten neigt. Etwas nervig, aber ich werde demnächst Mal etwas mit der Software einspielen, evtl kann man die Bremsen noch feinjustieren.

I made my own little setup with some PVC and wood when I first got my wheel. It was neat, but I always knew I wanted to get a real seat. I also knew that I couldn't get a full seat, because I simply don't have the space. The Challenge is perfect for me. Set up and tear down in less than a minute, and it really takes up no space when folded up. It has surprising sturdiness for both wheel and pedals for being a foldable frame. It also has just enough adjustability to fit just about anyone. This chair is amazing.

Always wanted a Playseat, to feel more in the zone. However having 2 kids, I couldn’t get a dedicated setup. Found the Challenge by sheer luck as I didn’t know it existed and all I can say is, pure brilliance. Easy to set up and put away and suits my T-300RS GT great. The wife is now happy that I can tuck it away from view and I’m not destroying the settee with my home made stand.
Highly recommended by me and my family
