What is the maximum weight it can hold?
Must see whether your female friend can sit on your laps & pak game for long hours.

What is the maximum height from sit to floor?

Usually the wheels are the 1st thing to pichar.
Can the wheels withstand 100+kg buibui

The OMEGA can hold up to 110kg.

The wheels are made of PU Rubber. On the V1 that i have set on, the wheels are good and smooth to handle my weight.

It never once creaked, or break.

As far as i have seen, they made a good improvements to the current legs. Which has moved from plastic to metal alu.

I think it is better to add cleaning and maintenance advice to chairs like these.

Synthetic leather requires regular cleaning. If not cfm will stink in a year or two and the smell cant be remove. If you been to army and smell those couch - it is the same sweet ester smell that is disgusting at the same time.

My concern with this chair is with that back/lumbar support pillow. Apparently it seemed to be made with plush material fabric. Will it absorb sweat over time and smell undesirably?

Actually, if there's a market for this, manufacturers can make removable covers/panels that can be thrown in the wash. I actually use an ikea microfibre bath mat as a washable seatpad on my chair, lol.

Thanks all for the feedbacks and kind words.

Please bear in mind that when i do reviews, things are mostly on loan, and yes i do return back to them. Some are out of goodwill i get to keep it. Some if i think it is worth a shot to review, i will buy it out of my own pocket money. And to some goodwill in this case partial sponsored.

Very much im not a fan base person. I love electronics, and its my very own passion to do this kind of reviews. I dont take sides as i myself appreciate this kind of stuffs.

In fact if can, i wanna own everything. But yes capital needed is large.

So along the way, if there is distro or coys whom willing to throw some stuffs to do review, i will do it and i do it for free. Not one dime is earned back to my pocket.

Loosing money? Sure it is. But its the fun and joy that i have gained.

Believe it or not, i gain new friends here to. Mikiberry, shadow84, geforce, opvalkarie, maximus, and the list goes on. And im appreciative of it.

I prefer the throne v2 over the omega because i find the omega a bit too big for my size (small built)... tried both in some exhibition that have air con so I really don't know about the heat issue, which is what I am concerned about. Hopefully you could do some extended sitting review with no aircon, but recently weather a bit cooler, unlike the hotter months.. :s13::s13:

Ah yes. One thing to point out. The Omega is good for slightly bigger frame. Cause it is something that has more cushion and thicker paddings. But if you are a smaller frame person, the V2 will be good enough.

Wouldn't the butt perspire after sitting for long period of time? I always have an impression that this kind of chair is only suitable in air con room.

That's one of my main consideration when buying chairs now. Room very hot, no mesh really too hot.

Alright, i will cover mainly on the OMEGA chair....

1. The materials being used
2. The overview of tilting mechanism, the tilting lock mechanism, the back rest adjusting mechanism
3. Is it hot? Not hot?
4. The physical measurement
5. The pillow and back rest materials and fabric choice
6. The all new Alu legs
7. Some small differences between the V1 and the OMEGA and what tier the OMEGA really belongs to
8. Warranty coverage and price point
9. Final thoughts and conclusion

I try to cover more if i can.

Note that i'm trying my best to take more photos of the fine details of the chair. Its not easy, but i will cover as much as possible.

If there is something that i missed out, i will definitely answer to the best of my abilities.

Give me a couple of days to do up everything.

Some inprovement can be made
1)some air ventilation for the back rest. Can get very stuffy if seat too long.
2)Can add-in a keyboard and mouse holder which can also detach out if not needed. Now monitor are big big now. So can seat further from monitor. Not like last time u had to seat infront small monitor to play game or watch movie.
**Sori if my english no good...peace
