Good enough?,
By D. Rogers - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Playseat Rookie Racing Seat (Black) (Video Game)
I tired for a couple years driving my logitech driving wheel for my PS3 on many different objects to make it work. Tables, chairs, TV trays, my lap and needless to say nothing worked that well. I thought this seat would be the perfect solution, but I was somewhat disappointed in the seat. I didn't realize it was mostly hard molded plastic. This made the seat extremely uncomfortable. This also made the seat hard to put together. On mine the bolts didn't line up exactly making it hard to put together. The steering wheel support arm mounts to the plastic seat as well with a single bolt making it less stable than a truly solid base. The steering wheel mounting plate and the pedal supports are plastic making it somewhat unstale too. It also lacked a good place to put the gear shifter. At this point I have to say even with all the drawbacks it was still the best solution I had used to date, but after a couple of weeks being miserable sitting in the seat I decided to return it. I know not everyone can afford a more expensive seat so moving up to an EVO or better may not be an option, so this seat maybe be a good enough solution. I however I decide to bite the bullet and go with a WRC that I found on sale on Amazon also. I will say it is worth ever penny of the difference. It is so much more stable because there is so little plastic in this seat. The steering wheel arm mounts to the metal frame with four bolts making it rock solid. The seat is a thick padded cushion on springs making it so comfortable I sometimes sit in the chair even when I am not playing a game, but simply watching TV. I will say the gear shift mount is a little low compared to the shifter in my real car, but still better than the options I had to come up with on the rookie seat. Bottom line: if even $200 stretches your budget get the rookie seat, otherwise the full seats are worth every penny you spend on them.

Should probably just buy the EVO playseat,

This review is from: Playseat Rookie Racing Seat (Black) (Video Game)
I saved a bit of money because this is my second playseat and lets face it having one is a luxury. The seat is plastic with no cushion and even though it looks like the regular seat it is not. It is a butt killer. The wheel support arm is a tad wobbly and it secures into the plastic seat so I worry about its long term durability. The seating position is also not as good as the regular seat.

This review is from: Playseat Rookie Racing Seat (Black) (Video Game)
This seat really improves the racing experience. I bought it to play Forza 4, and the difference in immersion between mounting your wheel on a seat like this and setting on your lap is immediately noticeable. I recommend it for anyone who wants to take their simulation experience to the next level.It assembles easily, and can be quickly adjusted to fit taller or shorter players. The seat itself is hard plastic, but I've found it to be very comfortable. You might want to a pad of some sort if you intend to use it for extended periods, but I can easily sit in it for at least an hour without any discomfort. The frame feels sturdy and stable, and it is light enough to pick up and move out of the way when you're not using it. |
