Walmart quietly launched a furniture sale this week, slashing up to 40% (or, in some cases, more) off of select patio, living room, and camp furniture. One of our favorite deals is something completely different—a gaming chair. This particular one is a great pick not just for video games, but also for working from home, and it was just marked down by more than half.
The GTRacing Gaming Chair is one of the most iconic racing-style chairs, and you can get the gray version for just $116, which is 54% lower than its typical $250 price. This model from GTRacing has more than 3,800 five-star ratings, so it should come as no surprise that this is a Walmart bestseller.
GTRacing Gaming Chair with Footrest, $116 (was $250) at Walmart
This gaming chair has a design that will be immediately familiar to any Twitch viewer, as it’s the classic full-back and headrest design that so many streamers use. These chairs have intense padding, a lumbar support pillow, a full 160-degree recline with a footrest, and three-directional armrest adjustment. This chair is primarily black but has gray accents to avoid the overly stuffy and formal appearance of an executive office chair. It can handle users up to 350 pounds.
One shopper, who described themself as “not a gamer,” absolutely loved the chair anyhow. “I bought this chair because it looked comfortable, and if a gamer can sit in it for hours, it must be good. I was right! This is the best ‘desk’ chair I've had. The cushions added on are just perfect.”
Another shopper bought it for their gamer son. “It helps him have better posture while playing games. He enjoys the foot rest and the reclining features too.”
The gray GTRacing Gaming Chair will probably go back up in price when Walmart’s furniture sale ends. Unfortunately, Walmart isn’t telling when exactly that is, so don’t dawdle too long if you want a comfortable new chair for your gaming area or home office.
