After releasing its elegant Throne chair in 2015, Secretlab gradually rose to fame as one of the top manufacturers of gaming furniture. If a gamer has decided on purchasing a Secretlab gaming chair, even with the Titan Evo and now discontinued Omega as the only two options, the buying process can become surprisingly complicated. Secretlab aims to accommodate every gamer, regardless of their size or preferences with fabric and style. As a result, a bevy of choices bombards buyers as they browse the Secretlab website.

When considering which Secretlab chair to purchase, consider these factors

• Height and Weight Limits: Secretlab makes its popular Titan Evo chair available in Small, Regular, and XL sizes, with recommended height ranges from 5'6" to 6'9". However, the Omega's sizing flexibility is much more limited. Buyers should make sure they purchase the right chair for their body type.
• Adjustability: The Titan Evo and Omega chairs have some key differences in the type of ergonomic adjustments buyers are able to make. In particular, the Titan Evo features tunable integrated lumbar support while the Omega relies on a lumbar pillow.
• Fabric Choice: With a choice of Hybrid Leatherette or SoftWeave Plus Fabric, the decision of which upholstery to select can completely change the look and feel of the Titan Evo. Fabric choices are minimal with the Omega, but all Secretlab options have many different skins to choose from that transform the exterior of the manufacturer's chairs.

With the various sizes and styles of Secretlab chairs offered, here are the best configurations that buyers should consider.

In 2022, Secretlab relaunched the TITAN series with its Evo models. This simplified the Secretlab gaming chair buying process, as it allowed the Titan series to accommodate not only a wide variety of different materials but also the ability to come in three different sizes. Taking into account even further adjustments for ergonomics during long gaming sessions and busy work hours, there's a reason why Secretlab has made the Titan Evo 2022 series the flagship chair of the company.

Beyond the wide range of materials and sizes, the Titan Evo 2022 series also boasts the largest number of color options. Ranging from simple single colors such as Frost Blue or Plush Pink to their collaboration products from games such as League of Legends, Valorant, and Fortnite. However, these collabs will only come in specific materials and are limited in quantities. So for anyone who has been waiting for a Diablo IV Secretlab gaming chair or Star Wars collection, strike while the iron is hot.

While Secretlab no longer has the Omega 2020 series in production, buyers can still easily find one of these on their websites but with limited color options and materials available. Because it's on the way out, it's the perfect time to pick up a Secretlab gaming chair as a more budget-friendly gaming chair option compared to the Titan Evo 2022 or even Titan 2020 series.

Originally meant for those with smaller builds, the Omega series accommodates those shorter than 5'11" and weighing under 240 lbs. But with the launch of the Titan Evo 2022 series, which came in three size options, there was no need to make a separate line strictly for smaller gamers. So if a buyer doesn't fall within those specific recommendations, there's a good chance that person may not find this specific Secretlab chair comfortable.

While the Titan 2020 Series Gaming Chair has also received the discontinuation notice, there's still a specific set of people that will enjoy it over the previous two. The Titan 2020 is among the best gamer chairs for gamers who love to sit cross-legged or prop their legs up on the chair in some fashion. This is a result of the leveled seat base, which the Titan 2022 Evo series chose to forgo during the merge.

The Titan 2020 still comes with a strapped memory foam head pillow and a non-replaceable 4D armrest. Unlike the Omega, there's the benefit of a two-way adjustable lumbar support, making it slightly better for long-term use. The only caveat though is the fact that the Titan 2020 series tends to have a deeper initial backrest angle, making it less likely to support the back without properly adjusting it to suit a specific body type.

To discover more about what makes the Titan 2020 series still worth considering for a buyer's next gaming chair, read Game Rant's full review.

One of the reasons why Secretlab gaming chairs are so popular is the fact that there is an option for every gamer, regardless of height or weight. Buyers weighing up to 395 lbs should feel secure sitting in the Secretlab Titan Evo XL. The 35-inch tall backrest allows especially tall gamers and pro athletes to rest their heads comfortably on the included magnetic head pillow.

The build quality of a gaming chair is crucial with larger users since there is more stress on essential parts like the backrest, seat, and base. With a construction that heavily relies on steel and not just hard plastic, even the base of the chair accommodates big and tall gamers. Benefiting from ADC12 aluminum, the bottom is still light enough to roll around easily on its XL PU casters yet still sufficient to support such a large gaming chair.

Becoming rather pricey with upgrades and certain fabric choices, the Titan Evo XL is still in the same price range as the manufacturer's smaller offerings. Even so, there are more budget-friendly big and tall gaming chairs out there, most notably the Fantasylab Big and Tall Gaming Chair with a 440 lb weight capacity and rocking function.

Secretlab only sells a few gaming chair models at any one time, but they still cater to everyone including big and tall gamers, lovers of pink chairs, and even the smallest customers. The Secretlab Titan Extra Extra Small was initially created as a gag for April Fool's Day in 2021, as a miniature-sized gaming chair. What Secretlab would later realize is that this "gag" had great potential for small gamers and brought it into production with the launch of the Titan Evo 2022 series. This fits closer to a fusion of the Titan Evo 2022 and the Omega 2020.

It features the cozy, rounded seat base the Omega 2020 series has and combines it with the durable materials of the Titan Evo 2022 series, the SoftWeave Plus Fabric, and the NEO Hybrid Leatherette. But it does not have an adjustable lumbar support system, magnetic head pillow, or 4D armrests. Buyers should also keep in mind this chair only comes in a limited selection of colors.

While the Titan XXS series is meant to be more of a collectible, it still has the required Furniture Industry Research Association (FIRA) certification that labels it as children's furniture, which features child-friendly locking casters, a maximum weight of 154 lbs, and a maximum height of 5'3". If anyone falls outside the weight and height required for the Titan Evo 2022 small size, has a little one who likes to join for gaming sessions, or simply want to collect a novelty from Secretlab, then this is the best gaming chair out there.

Secretlab first introduced its SoftWeave material in 2018, weaving together dense segments of short yarn to form an especially strong and durable fabric blend. In 2022, Secretlab unleashed a new and improved SoftWeave Plus which had a looser weave of the fabric, allowing more air to penetrate the material. SoftWeave Plus also enables designers to have fine control over patterns, resulting in some more detailed style options.

Secretlab Titan Evo 2022 gaming chairs with SoftWeave Plus Fabric are ideal for gamers who live in hot and humid locales. Sweat and moisture lingers on the surfaces of leather and faux leather which leads to some unpleasant intense gaming sessions. The breathability of fabric gaming chairs definitely has some practical benefits. Unfortunately, one drawback of the SoftWeave Plus Fabric becomes apparent if a gamer isn't careful enough when eating or drinking. Removing or preventing stains from a SoftWeave Plus Fabric chair isn't impossible, but it requires a little more effort than with faux leather. Secretlab does sell some specially formulated fabric wipes and cleaners to make the process easier.

Despite their comfort, sometimes gaming chairs look odd in a traditional office space. In that case, an ergonomic office chair may be the best option. The NeueChair is technically a subsidiary of Secretlab and is an office chair by default, but that doesn't mean it can't be used for gaming. Rather than fabric or leather, the NeueChair uses a patented NeueMesh which consists of three layers of mesh to create maximum comfort and breathability. This chair is perfect for those long hours at the home office. When a user gets off the chair, it still maintains its comfort for gaming.

If a buyer spends more time at desks typing up emails or creating content but still wants to game for an hour or two after work, then buyers want to try out the NeueChair. A prospectivebuyer may also want to consider this option if breathability is the central factor in choosing a Secretlab chair, as the mesh is great at letting air flow through. The mesh might not fight off stains as much as the Secretlab NEO Hybrid Leatherette, but the larger holes do make for less area for stains to occur.

Secretlab frequently releases new skins for its Titan Evo 2022 chairs, but some limited edition styles are more special than others. With an official partnership with Blizzard, Secretlab released two Diablo IV chairs in recent months to celebrate the launch of the ultra-popular hack-n-slasher. One style showcases Lillith, the demon queen protagonist making her debut in the latest Diablo. The other version pays tribute to Inarius, the former archangel, creator of Sanctuary, and Lilith's partner. Both distinctly different styles share all the standard features of the Titan Evo 2022 and are only available in the Neo Hybrid Leatherette upholstery.

The Titan Evo 2022 Diablo IV Special Edition Lilith chair is predominantly black and red. It features a depiction of the character on its backrest. Lilith's white skeletal profile is contrasted by her blood-red wings. On the reverse side, buyers will find the Diablo IV logo in white and red and a considerable amount of red stitching. The chair may not be a welcoming throne for many people to sip some tea after a stressful day, but for Diablo gamers, it's practically paradise.

The Titan Evo 2022 Diablo IV Lilith chair is ideal for gaming rooms with darker furniture and black PC cases. On the other hand, the Inarius version is a lighter-colored piece of furniture with the Father stitched in black on the backside of the chair. The gold wings of Inarius stretch around the front of the chair which continues the gray, white, and gold color scheme. This Diablo IV-inspired chair arguably makes more of a statement, especially if a gamer relishes sitting in some gold-trimmed fabric.

Secretlab could have easily charged a premium for the Diablo IV Special Edition chairs, but they are priced similarly to other Titan Evo 2022 styles. Both styles stand out as some of the most detailed Secretlab skins to date, with very detailed artwork and elaborate stitching. Unfortunately, the standard pricing has made them sell even faster, and both versions of the chair are currently only available as a pre-order.

Best Secretlab Gaming Chair Accessories

Another strong selling point of Secretlab chairs is their modular construction, which allows for straightforward customization. The company also supports existing gaming chairs with far more accessories than other manufacturers including add-ons like alternative lumbar pillows, armrests, and skins.

Even with the adjustable lumbar support system included in Titan Evo chairs, some gamers may still prefer more cushioning for their lower backs. Despite the flexibility and many available sizes of Secretlab chairs, there may be a gap between the backrest and their lumbar region for some buyers.

The Lumbar Pillow Pro is a large cushion filled with high-density and breathable PlushCell memory foam. Specifically designed for Titan Evo models, this especially cushy pillow relies on L-Adapt technology to enhance the lumbar support of the chairs, rather than replace it. The pillow is intended to perfectly contour itself to the curves of the Titan Evo, so results may vary if buyers purchase the Lumbar Pillow Pro for other chairs.

The reality is that the majority of the time while working or gaming, without an additional pillow, the heads and necks of gamers won't feel supported by a chair. Although the Secretlab Memory Foam Head Pillow normally ships with Titan Evo chairs, the company always has replacements on hand. Also, there are 14 colors available if a gamer is looking to switch up their color scheme a bit.

Like the Lumbar Pillow Pro, the Memory Foam Head Pillow is intended for use with Titan Evo chairs. To avoid the hassles and untidiness of straps, this head pillow attaches to the Titan Evo using extremely powerful neodymium magnets. The magnetic area is rather long, so buyers have some flexibility with how high or low they want to position the cushion.

Most gamers would hardly call the standard PU-coated armrest tops of the Secretlab Titan Evo 2022 uncomfortable. However, if elbows are begging for some added comfort, the PlushCell Memory Foam Armrests are a great option. The CloudSwap technology used in Secretlab's chairs makes it an almost instant upgrade to replace the existing armrest tops, thanks to the magic of magnets. The pair of PlushCell Memory Foam Armrests can face any direction, so the installation process is impossible to get wrong.

If a gamer enjoys reclining in their chair, a footrest is a great way to keep legs and feet from aimlessly dangling. Other gamers may have legs that are a bit too short for the chair that they currently own. To solve the issue, Secretlab released their Premium Footrest which is meticulously designed to sit just at the right height for their chairs. They are also exceptionally comfortable with two layers of PlushCell Memory Foam and cold-core foam for the right balance between softness and firmness. A surface that is curved on the edges and flat on the footrest's top provides users with several positions to rest their aching feet.

If a buyer has ever used a slipcover to transform the look of an old sofa, the results may have been met with mixed expectations. The truth is most of these covers weren't designed to precisely conform to the shape of a random piece of furniture. With Secretlab Skins, the manufacturer seeks to change what is possible with fabric covers, precision-mapping them to seamlessly adhere to a Titan Evo chair.

Often available in more than 20 style choices, the SoftWeave Plus Fabric covers install in a few different sections on chairs within 3 or so minutes. Special edition Skins are a great way to celebrate favorite games every year or two without having to purchase an entirely new chair. Skins also add more cushioning to a Titan Evo chair and protect a chair's original fabric or leather from damage and wear.

The Secret to Deciding on a Secretlab Chair

Despite only selling two basic lines of gaming chairs, Secretlab offers an unprecedented amount of customization, particularly with its Titan Evo series. To determine which is the ideal Secretlab chair for a buyer, focus on height and weight limits, adjustability, and fabric choice.

Height and Weight Limits

Size is a critical factor when deciding on a Secretlab chair, with the company offering everything from the diminutive Titan Extra Extra Small to the massive Titan Evo XL. On the other hand, the Omega 2020 is built in only one size and is not meant for larger buyers, with a height limit of 5'11" and a weight limit of 240 lbs. The average gamer will feel perfectly content sitting in a regular-size Secretlab chair, but it's vital to check the height and weight recommendations of each option before purchasing.

Adjustability

Both the Titan Evo 2022 and Omega 2000 offer a considerable amount of adjustability including 4D armrests and backseat tilt. However, the two chairs do differ in what type of lumbar support they include. The Titan Evo is designed with integrated adjustable lumbar support while the Omega ships with a memory foam lumbar support pillow instead. Both approaches have their advantages and disadvantages but Titan Evo owners who find the lack of an added cushion disappointing can purchase the Lumbar Pillow Pro separately.

Fabric Choice

For prospective buyers of the Omega 2000, the choice of fabric is already made for them, since only the Neo Hybrid Leatherette is an option. As far as the Titan Evo, the debate on whether the Neo Hybrid Leatherette or SoftWeave Plus Fabric is the right choice for a buyer is a tricky one. Ultimately, a gamer needs to determine if they desire soft and breathable cloth fabric or the smooth luxurious, and spill-rejecting qualities of faux leather. For the ultimate status symbol, Secretlab also produces authentic Napa leather chairs, but they are rarely found in stock.

Even more perplexing for some buyers is deciding on what they want their chair to look like. It's hard to go wrong with signature Secretlab styles like Stealth, Black, Classic, or Royal, as these tend to blend in with almost any gaming room. However, the company also constantly invents special editions that pay tribute to famous Esports teams or the most popular games of the day. If a buyer is afraid to get stuck with a design that they will regret in a year or two, Secretlab Skins are an ingenious way to almost instantly change the look of a chair.

Truthfully, customer satisfaction is so high with any Secretlab gaming chair that the prospect of disappointment with a purchase is insignificant. Even so, as some of the best in the business, Secretlab chairs can withstand years of abuse, so expect any candidate to become a permanent fixture in a gaming room.

FAQ

Q: What Secretlab material is best?

Secretlab currently has three main materials to choose from. The SoftWeave® Plus fabric option is the best Secretlab material for those who prefer their gaming chair breathable and maintenance-free.
