In-depth Review
Vertagear S-Line SL2000 White/Purple
Vertagear S-Line SL2000 White/Purple
There never used to really be a choice. Gaming chairs were all in this racing style. Then we had the X-rocker type seat before companies such as Secretlab came along and styled things in a slightly different way. Racing style chairs are still extremely popular, however, especially with streamers and the like, and we have to admit, this white offering from Vertagear really catches the eye. Yes, the design is out and out racing but if you like that then the colors blend beautifully.
We particularly like the way the lumbar support and the head pillow are designed to blend in sumptuously with the overall design of the chair. It just looks really good.
It’s also really easy to construct as well, literally just sliding together, so you won’t need to muster a second pair of hands to complete any tricky bits. It has a maximum weight recommendation of 150llbs so if you are on the larger side then a racing-style chair may not be for you. Otherwise, if you are looking for a nice white chair with a splash of extra color in your set-up, as well as one that oozes class and a hint of speed, look no further.
Vertagear VG-PL4500 Gaming Chair Black/Carbon Edition
Vertagear VG-PL4500 Gaming Chair Black/Carbon Edition
The first thing I want to talk about here is one that doesn’t;t often get mentioned when talking about gaming chairs – back sweat. Nice yeah. You see not all gaming chairs live in the same part of the world, and you might already know that if you live in more tropical climates you are more suited to getting a fabric chair than a leather/faux leather one as they tend to be cooler. With this tropical heat however comes the aforementioned skin juice, dripping into your expensive seat in the height of summer during a tense COD firefight. Tasty.
Well, Vertagear has gone and patented a technology that fills the backrest and seat with high-quality coffee fiber which enables quick-drying for added hygiene and comfort. Now that all sounds fundamentally disgusting knowing that all this filth is being absorbed into your seat, but there is some satisfaction to be gained if you ever sell it on on eBay.
Another (expensive) novelty for this year is the potential to spend a further $200 or more on an LED light upgrade kit – in fact, you can see it in action on the image at the top of the page. It makes the chair look cool, but you have to have more money than sense really.
Overall though it’s a very good chair. It doesn’t win here as it is a premium price but doesn’t quite hit the premium levels we have come to expect from Secretlab and Anda Seat. It is recommended though, regardless of how wet your back gets.
VERTAGEAR Racing Seat Gaming Chair, S-Line Medium SL4000
VERTAGEAR Racing Seat Gaming Chair, S-Line Medium SL4000
We really like the SL2000 model featured at the top of this page here at WePC, and we have recommended it on several previous round-ups on this very site. We like this larger model in the series too. It’s sort of like buying an upgrade pack on a new car, except you don’t get a sat nav here. The reason we ask you to consider it rather than out and out suggesting your buy it is that the price ramps up quite a bit and will therefore have lurched out of quite a lot of budgets, and I’m not quite sure it is justified. It looks pretty similar – you can see the seat looks a bit plusher, but ultimately it’s just a nice racing-style chair.
Like all the Vertagear’s construction is a breeze and the 4D armrests are useful if you want to squash it into an unusual position, but it does cost extra cash. It’s still considerably cheaper than a top-of-the-range model, it’s just – is it worth that much more than our winner here – to you it may be, to us, maybe not.

Final Word
If you are an avid reader of our gaming chair content here at WePC – and let’s face it why wouldn’t you be, you might well have seen our winner here featured on several other pages. One of the things we like the most about the Vertagear’s is their ease of construction and the fact they are pretty comfortable. They do tend to lean towards the racing style of chair so you have to be okay with slotting one of those into your set-up but the fact they go above and beyond in the materials department is of great benefit to them. The expensive runner-up in our round-up features special coffee-fibers to enhance quick drying and it features such as those that show the manufacturer is actually thinking of the end-user, rather than just trying to take them for every penny they can.
Be sure to let us know in the comments which Vertagear chair you plump for.
