Design

The Razer gaming computer chairs unit comes in the classic black and green color palette that Razer is known for, with the green stitching and Razer logo providing a great luminous contrast to the black leather. If you want to enjoy the full effect, you should place the chair in a low-light gaming room. If you prefer more muted colors, you can also opt for the all-black version at the same price.

In terms of build, the Iskur has a very solid and sturdy plywood and metal frame, complete with caster wheels. The tall headrest and recessed backrest give it the appearance of a stately throne. The neck pillow boats of the Razer logo and the seat base is classily emblazoned with the tagline ‘For Gamers by Gamers’ in green. Additionally, the lumbar support cushion has a subtle snake scale pattern.

Comfort

Beyond its design, the Razer Iskur is a very comfortable gaming chair. It is designed to help you maintain a good posture during extended gameplay, and the support is solid without feeling stiff or cagy. Additionally, the chair is designed to conform to your body rather than swallow you. The leather is textured, and the neck pillow is filled with memory foam and covered in a soft, gentle fabric.

If you are tall, you will love the long backrest and neck cushion clasps positioned at the top of the chair. Gamers will also enjoy the firm but comfortable armrests that can be adjusted through three buttons placed on either side or the front of each armrest.

Lumbar Support

While many gaming chair producers provide lumbar support through pillows, the Razer Iskur stands out through its adjustable lumbar support. The support is a padded section of the backrest that you can adjust to conform to the curvature of your spine. This makes for more comfort and support.

Pros

  • Flexible, adjustable armrests
  • Firm, comfortable, supportive padding
  • Well-sculpted backrest
  • Lumbar support is versatile

Cons

  • Backrest lever is a little stiff.
  • Shorter gamers may find it difficult to reach the levers
  • Lumbar support is sensitive to screw tension
  • Not ideal for gamers with wider body types

Verdict

Like other Razer gaming computer chairs before it, the Razer Iskur is an excellent option for any gamer looking for maximum comfort. It is masterfully designed, well built, easy to assemble, and attractive. That said, gamers with wider body types may want to consider other options. Still, the Razer Iskur lives up to expectations, and if you meet the height and weight requirements, it is a great investment.
