    First saw an ad for APOL on Instagram. Found this video while doing research about how good the chair is and got more interested. Went to the showroom to try out the chair for myself and loved it. All of the staff members were super welcoming and friendly and I even got to meet and chat with Jason (the founder) himself. Super passionate guy. Set aside enough money to buy it via installments. My Behemoth finally arrived last week and its one of the most comfortable chairs I've ever sat on.
    Thanks JP for this wonderful video!

      That's awesome Ryan thanks for sharing your experience! Yeah from the first time I met the guys at APOL they've always been super friendly and chill.. Very easy to talk to!
      Great to know you've got the behemoth! I've still got mine and it's still brilliant!

      thank you so much for the kind words! It really means so much to me. Honestly my best recommendation I could give is to try them out for yourself as much as possible.. although with the current situation that might not be possible... but I personally really like the APOL chairs.. not just the chair but with the way the company runs their business... that's not to say Secret Lab has a bad business.. I just don't know much about them.

    Hi,asking some other details abt the chair.
    1) can the wheels be locked ?
    2) and is there a price diff between the different materials but same type of chairs ?
    And perhaps u can add dimensions next time ? Cause im 1.90 m and knowing the height of the backrest will be really useful. Although these answers can be found in the website or contacting them, watching a review video thats informative is kinda useful as well. Apart from that, cool and chill video with great content. Keep it up !

    • @TechnoBabbleMedia
      @TechnoBabbleMedia  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi!
      1) no unfortunately you can't lock the wheels... Although I can't think of any gaming chair that has that feature..
      2) yes.. Regardless of materials it's all the same price!

      It's been awhile since I filmed that review, but if my memory serves me right it wasn't the wrong screws.. Its jus that they looked different from the screws in the assembly guide so I wasn't sure which was which.. Not sure if they fixed that now since it's been ages since.

      I would say they're both good quality.. I like the fact that the behemoth has a wider base.. And it would be cheaper to get replacement parts..

      Well if you can't afford a secret lab chair then honestly the APOL chairs are the way to go. You should drop by their showroom and test them out for yourself.
      As for testing secret lab chairs, I think it's unlikely as they've not been in favour of it despite my multiple attempts to request for one. Maybe one day when my channel gains enough traction they will agree to send one out to me.. Haha.. Either that or my channel becomes big enough to earn money and I could buy one :p

      @TechnoBabbleMedia  4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Well according to what I found online the Omega is around 500 now.... For me personally I would pick the Behemoth over the Omega because I found myself having a bit more space in the Behemoth than the Omega.. Although I tried out the Omega months ago so my memory might be a little fuzzy.. But I'm inclined to pick the Behemoth.

      Hi! Well unfortunately I haven't had the chance to test out a secret lab chair. I sat on one several times but it's not the same as really testing it out for a good few days.
      I would say on price alone the APOL chairs are more competitively priced. And as far as quality is concerned, the behemoth chair is top notch and I couldn't fault it. There's a chance I might be reviewing the APOL kraken too but that hasn't been confirmed yet.

      Oh man that's a shame.. Yeah the dark Ash is my personal favourite! Like I mentioned in my review of the other APOL chair.. The Kraken.... PU leather will crack... Its inevitable... The question is how long it will be before it cracks... And I can't really answer that because mine is the fabric version.... But APOL has products that u can use the care and lengthen the lifespan of PU leather chairs.... So hopefully that helps.
