I've got a SecretLab Omega I've had for about 5 or 6 years now. Pretty similar but doesn't have the fancy lumbar support mechanism, just a removable lumbar cushion. Absolutely rock solid build quality. Had no issues with it. Pro tip, upgrade the castors to rollerblade castors for an even nicer experience. I got locking ones for mine so I can use it with a wheel stand and pedals for sim racing without rolling backwards when I brake.
I've had a 2020 model for almost a year and a half and I couldn't possibly recommend it more. Really helped my back pain while working from home and gaming.
I've had my SecretLab Titan XL since September. It's phenomenal and a huge upgrade over my previous chair, the literal seat from a Dodge Viper bolted to a caster (Craigslist special).
@@Favorline I'm 2 1/2 into mine and it looks identical to the day I bought it, which has not been the case for other pleather chairs I've owned. Their cleaning product work great
@@AnIrishPapaya Hope it's the case. since I like to sit in it without t-shirt on in the summer. and that's usually when the worst damage happens if it happens.
@@Favorline Also 2,5 years in mine and can confirm, outside of some minor damage on one of the armrests ( that they are replacing out of warranty ) my chair is as great as when I got it.
I have a secret lab titan (though it's an XL and a year old now), and it's been totally worth the price for me. I actually took the arm rests back off after a while because I don't use them and they just got in the way, and I only use the pillow when I recline back. It's honestly the best office/gaming chair I've used
I got the Secretlab Titan XL chair and have had many gaming chairs over the years(mostly GTRacing & Maxnomic chairs). I have to say Titan XL is the best one I have used. Works great for tall & slightly large people like myself. Great for when you need to work a long time too. Secretlab do a good job on their chairs.
Ive had a secretlab chair for almost 2 years, and let me tell you it looks brand new still and got more comfortable as it wore in, its firm but you dont get sore after several hours, it really is one of the best
Coming from a long term secret lab user the one issue you’ll likely run into is armrest wear. I’ve had the rubber crack/break off and was told by their customer service it’s considered “normal wear and tear” despite it happening within the first 6 months. Arm rests will eventually wear out as well causing them to rotate more freely.
How's the seat cushion compared to something like vertagear? I had a vertagear chair for a couple years and the seat cushion was not cushiony at all. Felt like sitting on hard leather after about an hour or so.
Cool, I just ordered a Titan Evo 2022 with SoftWeave Plus, could you tell me how it is holding up? Like did you got any stains and how easy it is to clean? That's my biggest concern. ^^
@@Urza26 it won't tear up. What I do recommend is putting a thin cushion on top of the seat because sweat could leave some hard to remove stains on the fabric.
@@drblackrat sorry for the late reply. You should place a thin cushion or pillow on top of the seat because mines been collecting sweat stains that I still don't know how to remove. I also ordered the omega cushion for my back which is very comfortable. Enjoy!
I have the older version of this and really like it. The head pillow feels really nice, but is almost useless with the stap that tries to hold it to the chair, so the magnetic pillow would be great. Also the improved lumbar support and changeable armrests kind of makes me want to upgrade.
@@Snxgur haha no. I don't have the money to be spending $600 on an upgrade I kind of want. The newer features look nice, but the old chair is still doing its job just fine.
@@ZacChilds i upgraded from omega to titan evo 2024 and the omega was more comfortable so far, but my titan is only a few month old, compared to like 6 years like my omega, so it was broken in more. I really like the magnetic new pillow tho, it’s way softer and better shaped then omega, and the new lumbar pillow pro is amazing
I have had my Titan almost 2 years. It's nice to see Secret Lab getting the love they deserve. I have seen channels like GN lump them in with all the Chinese chairs that are all clones of each other and NO Secret Lab chairs are worth every cent. They're built to handle LONG gaming sessions for years. ❤
@@wes_0110 Both the artificial leather and the Napa leather definitely does not peel. They are extremely high quality leathers. Source: I own a Titan 2020
@@wes_0110 Like to throw in that I have the Fabric version of the 2020 chair and it's still going strong. Fabric is showing no rips or tears or anything of the sort. The only issue I have, which they kinda fixed in the 2022 version, is the armrest is falling apart and really doesn't do much anymore. I say they "fixed" it because they made it easier to replace.
As someone who’s owned a Titan XL for 2 years almost to the day - these chairs are NOT comfortable for a big guy. I’m 6’6 bounce between 285-300lbs for the holidays lol. They even advertise it’s stiff and hard bc it will break in over time…it doesn’t break in…it will break but it will not break in comfort wise. The arm pad cracked horizontally within 3-4 months of owning it and just about a month ago the other one did also. Wide spread common issue with these and SecretLabs did send me new pads for free since it’s under warranty. Just a week ago I was leaning back pewdiepie style and the tilt mechanism broke and it was stuck in this crazy position. Turns out the cast aluminum frame cracked where the spring pushed against to give you the tilt function when you want to lean back. Not the reclining function but the actual tilt you can lock and unlock. To my surprise secret labs asked if I could separate the piston and base…I couldn’t without damaging the chair with a hammer so they just sent me everything from the parts that attach to the bottom cushion to the casters. Their customer support has been stellar in my experience but for a $600 chair I expected more comfort. I highly recommend you extend the warranty by posting your chair online for the free 3 year warranty that kicks in after the 2 year warranty expires.
I've been using the 2020 model and love it. It's handled daily use very well. I just wish it had the vertical lumbar adjustment like the 2022 model does. That magnetic pillow is awesome too.
I have one of the previous gen on this chair and have used it since the start of the pandemic. It's very comfortable and durable. The improvements this one brings is height adjustability of the lumbar support (not just in and out), the magnetic pillow and the replaceable armrests. If I wasn't already happy with my chair, I would buy this in a heartbeat, and I highly recommend it.
Hands down the best chair. My husband got his a few years ago, and I would steal it when he wasn't in office until I got my own. It still looks like new, hold up really well. Arguably, when I'm away from home for more than a day, I miss my chair more than I miss my husband. It has effectively ruined sitting on any other chair for me.
Main problem, at least with the 2020 model, is that armrests tear up on the sides for many people during first or second year of use. It's most likely moisture/temperature fluctuation issue so if you don't sweat on it, might be fine. Support is likely to do a one-time "free" replacement.
Been using the KDA Secretlabs chair this entire year, and my 100% honest opinion, it took a bit to get fully comfortable and tweaking all the things, but, it’s really nice. It costs a pretty penny, but for WFH or long computer sessions, I do recommend it.
I don't blame him. Japanese is hard for people who aren't familiar with it. Especially English speakers, since Japanese is a phonetically consistent language.
Spending time to learn the rules of a language that you'll never use and still probably pronouncing words poorly is retarded, the Japanese know what's up and don't even bother. *if you think you can sound like a native Japanese speaker you're dead wrong, you also need to know the tones of a word to a decent degree th-cam.com/video/G0ULPlBeKzg/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=Dogen
@@BirdTurdMemes bruh im half japanese and i can speak 日本語 fluently. I don't know whats up with you i never even said he needs to pronouce it properly i just said he sounds funny and thats all.
I have a regular secret labs titan evo 2022 and honestly it's so comfortable I love this chair, I have the game of thrones stark edition and it looks amazing, it is hard first time you sit in it but the leatherette does soften up overtime give it 1-2 days of use and it becomes really comfortable
I do really like this guy here. He's totally cheer me up with his funny spontaneous words. Being relax during recording is not easy, but you both did it so well. Keep going and thanks bro! ~New fan from Malaysia
Just under two months old and the shock is NOT staying in preferred height position. I contacted the warranty department and after a week of communicating and them telling me I must disassemble the chair that takes tools I do not have, I still have a chair that will not function correctly, This was my second chair I purchased from this company. BUYER BEWARE!
I bought my Secretlab Titan 2-3 Years ago and it's still a fantastic chair. You need some time to get used to the quite huge size of this chair (I'm about 178cm tall) but now I don't wanna miss this one. Especially due to the COVID home office and home studying situation, I spend an average of 10-12 Hours a day, 7 days a week in this chair. The only issue I have so far are the armrests, where the material on one of those gave up. Sadly the older versions are not hot-swappable, so the 2022 version looks darn nice to me.
I don't know how far in advance they plan these things but I asked for a Secretlab review in the comments of one of their previous chair reviews, so it feels nice that they listened 😊
I've got a 2020 Titan XL and love it, only chair I could find that supported the bigger gamer. One of my mates who is 7ft tall tried it, loved it and bought his own as well.
An honest review for those looking to pick this chair up: I picked up a Softweave version of the TITAN Evo 2022 after watching this video, and boy-howdy was the thing the most firm chair I ever sat in. I was not in severe pain after sitting in it for hours like I was with my NeedForSeat I'd had for years, but I was absolutely not comfortable either. I wanted to like it for the nearly two weeks I had it, but I needed to either put up with it like my other chair or be honest with myself. The lumbar adjustment is much more limited than it seems, and the plastic inside started creaking a bit by the time I sent it back ($150 for UPS ground shipping by the way, which is NOT covered by the return policy). I tend to lean back when I watch TH-cam or am not actively using the keyboard, and I kept turning to my side after a bit to try and get more padding from my shoulder. I do also have a standing desk, so I would take breaks from sitting, and that didn't help much either. Also, I don't know if for whatever reason the material would make THAT much of a difference, but I doubt it. Plus, I live in the Desert, so I'd prefer something more breathable. If you're happy with the chair, all the better! I'd say this is an improvement over most other chairs in the gaming category, and I do hope a lot of the reviews are genuine. Do keep in mind that Secretlab offers a free warranty extension for posting a review of the chair when you are looking at ratings for the chair. I picked up a Steelcase Leap V2 from an office furniture liquidation place for close to the same price, bit over $500 USD, after trying it out and immediately feeling like this would provide the support I needed. I recommend to see what Herman Miller or Steelcase chairs are nearby your area, go test them out wherever you can being the most important thing, and make your decision from there. Temper your expectations, because its not like sitting on cloud nine, but it feels like I am getting what I need from a chair I sit in all stinkin day. Hopefully this helps!
I have the Omega and love it. I've had lots of different chairs in my 45 years on the planet, including gaming and office, and it's the best I've had for my back. I wouldn't say overall comfy as I've had big plush chairs but I would say that I've managed to get it to a great position, I don't get back ache and I can sit in it for hours gaming and doing my thing. I have had a comfy exec chair which felt nicer to sit in but not nicer when I was typing or using my gaming wheel. The Secret Lab ticks more boxes
@@K----- had, dunno it was my Dad's so would have been cheap. Padding was glorious though and it also had seat tilt function (an absolute must in any chair). Just was leather, which I find too hot, and had fixed arm rests. We actually gave it away. I was disappointed a little when I got the secret labs as the padding just wasn't as plush but once I got my ideal posiiton I decided I wouldn't go back and I got used to the secret labs. I think I'd been spoint by the super thick padding of the old chair
Everyone’s heard he’s fire from a friend or a colleague, bu no-one actually remembers who fired him. Colton spends his days appearing on random LTT videos, and people go along with it because he’s always been there, so they assume someone hired him back. But no-one did. By night he lives in the basement, subsiding on the tears of dislikers and unsubscribers, feasting till he is full and satisfied, only to re-emerge and start the cycle all over again. Some say it is he who places convenient merch in every location, so they are always in hand when needed.
I've got a Titan XL from 1-2 years ago and its sooo comfortable. I love it. By far the most i've ever spent on a computer chair but totally worth it. Although I ended up going for the softweave because I thought it would be better, and IMO it is - super spongy and comfortable but still firm enough to support where you need.
I really love secret lab's customer service. I've got a 2019 version of the Titan, and the rocking lock that Dennis couldn't find failed and you couldn't sit upright anymore. I was out of warrantee, but they still overnighted a replacement part to me, for half off, and free shipping. I fully expected to be just SOL and they totally pulled through for me.
their support is really awesome, they know the worth of keeping customers unlike many other brands, i asked if the little lumbar support weel not clicking was a considerable expecting to just hear a "its normal wear and tear" but instead they instantly shipped me a whole new backrest( they messed up and sent me the 2016 version so i notified then and they didnt even wait for the wrong one to be shipped back they instantly sent another one)
I really like this series but one of the best things to see, as a consumer, would be all the different ways the chair adjusts. Locking back? Sliding seat? Can it dip down? Please cover every adjustment as sometimes this isn't clear on paper.
Well I have last year's model of this chair and I can right away, just by the video, see the improvements. So yeah.. planned obsolescence at it's finest (he says while ordering that one..)
I have the Titan 2020 series and despite beeing a little heavy and to tall for me, I am so happy my back pain dissapeared. I sit 8h a day in a chair and my back was killing me, I waited more than a month for this chair and after a year I do not regret it, even though for me it costs 1 month and a half of work to afford it. Those detachable arm pads are gold! My chair's pads did not aged well, I do not know how to explain it but I hope warranty coveres them. I thing both armrests need to be changed so when I saw those armpads I thought "This is brilliant! And also is clear that this is a common problem with this chairs"
My problem when looking at this (well, the smaller version) was that half the people giving them good reviews felt kinda bought (or were about as knowledgable as I am (or less) when it comes to chairs) and the people who didn't like it were, well the one I remember was shorter than Colton and took their largest chair because he liked the look of it (and his complains were, IMO, related to it being made for larger and heavier people). Personally I'd love it if someone who knows office chairs and quality chairs tested this.
yea lots of "sponsored" reviews makes it hard to tell which ones are actually worth the premium and which ones are just trying to get a higher margin off the backs of gamers and pay a small amount of that toward marketing/promotions costs
Proud owner of a Titan gaming chair by SecretLab here. I’ve an one year older version of it but among all gaming chairs on the market, the lumbar support is second to none in comparison to most gaming chairs on the market under 1000$. It’s faux leather but because of that, it has value that most gaming chairs don’t have.
I was going to use this space to compliment Jake and say how excited i am to see him in future videos, but then you brought out Dennis "Live Laugh" Liao and i just want to fanboy.
I have two 2020 Series Titan chairs, and that tells you I love mine. I used my original all through the pandemic, and a lot of my tailbone issues went away. Transitioning back to the office, I just couldn't go back to my okay-ish chair, so I got another. They feel pretty hard to start, but once you're past the break-in period (around a week or two), they feel just right for long computer sessions. I haven't tried any of the other brands, but these are excellent for me, and I guess that's all that matters.
I truly believe the removable armrest is due to the fact they were having issues with the material cracking along the side of vinyl over time. I would say it was a fault that came to a rework that made the 2022 a much better chair then the 2021. I still have my 2021 and they warrantied my armrest and Love my chair. Secret Lab is a great company that makes amazing chairs!
Took this option to give my own secretlab omega a clean. Had it for about a year now and am very pleased with it. I will report however that the armrests have begun to dent in and split at the seam on the side since about a month or two back. I don't know if the new ones do that but since the new ones are swappable like that I wouldn't worry too much
Picked up a Titan 2021 in March and also got a Herman Miller Aeron at the same time. I needed a chair for my personal PC for gaming, and a chair for my office. I tried both out to decide which gets used for what. The Aeron is the most comfortable chair I have ever bought, but it doesn't work for me with gaming. It is great for sitting back and just enjoying the comfort. Since much of my day is spent in conf calls, the Aeron is perfect for work. For gaming I couldn't get the Aeron to really adjust to sit front and center properly. It does tilt forwards, but it's kinda awkward to try and game like that. The Titan however is pretty stiff and straight. You can certainly recline, but it props your body up as an L shape and makes gaming for me really enjoyable. The chair is incredibly stiff, and I was a bit worried I would hate it because I didn't sink into it like my Aeron and previous leather chair. But after 2 months my body is used to the chair, it's a bit more broken in and I absolutely love the Titan for gaming. Every time I sit in it, the lumbar and stiff fit feels more like a glove. I got the softweave because every pleather and leather chair I have after 8 years has major issues. I'll see if the softweave has the same fate.
I’ve had my secret lab chair titan for 3 years now. Will never buy anything else. I’m 6”5 and it works great. My favorite chair I’ve ever used. Cloth edition is easy to clean and looks stunning and feels great
I regret not buying the smallest model. I thought adjustable lumbar support would be handy but the thing is that you basically only set it once and never play with it again so kinda of a waste of money on my part plus I would've preferred a little more snug. Might sell mine to get the newer model in regular size.
You should do more of these style of videos with more tech. Just have other workers come in and see their first impressions. Seeing multiple peoples first impressions is awesome, adds a lot of depth to the review.
I GOT BOUGHT THIS CHAIR BECAUSE OF THIS REVIEW AND I GOT IT FROM THEM BROKEN. THE PLATE FOR THE VERTICAL ARMREST THAT HOLDS IT IN THE WELDS WERE BROKEN. I TRIED FINDING A PHONE NUMBER AND THEY DO NOT SEEM TO HAVE ONE. ALL THEY HAVE IS A FORM TO FILL OUT AND IT REQUIRES A SERIAL NUMBER THAT ISNT ON IT. I JUST GOT THIS YESTERDAY AND I AM NOT THRILLED ABOUT HOW IT WAS DAMAGED OUT OF THE BOX. AT THIS POINT I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THAT PEOPLE BUY IT BECAUSE THIER CS IS LACKING.
I've had my secret lab Titan for just over 2 years. just needed a small cushion pillow for a lil more lumbar support, (my back is stuffed) 12/10 would recomend
I just bought mine, but I can't sit in it for more than 45 minutes without my ass going numb. Seat is NOT comfortable. EXCELLENT build quality. EXCELLENT looks EXCELLENT arm rest adjustments. EXpensive. Good back support
@@benrosenberg3489 The pressure it's putting on my legs/butt. I don't get the lower back (spinal) pain I used to. But then that might also be because this seat helps encourage better posture.
I got the G2 esports model a year ago. not that i'm into G2 or other esports, it's that it was the only one in stock at the time. I like mine a lot, very comfy, even the surface of all the cushioning is durable, ok well up to a point... we do have cats so yea... haha. Also, the warranty is good, if you follow thier guidelines you can get an extra 3 years of it extended. The things I changed on my chair: It doesn't have the swappable arm rests and the arm rests that come with it are not very cushiony but that's easily solved with some 3rd party arm rest covers from amazon. the head rest cushion on mine is not magnetic, but i never use it anyway, only my 7 yr old would use it because he is much smaller than me. last thing, I also got a set of replacement wheels, so instead of plastic they are now roller blade wheels, the plastic wheels can eventually scuff and leave marks on the floor.

Same, best one in the price range. Sure the $2k ergonomic chairs are more comfy, but not 1500bucks more comfy.
Coming from a long term secret lab user the one issue you’ll likely run into is armrest wear.
I’ve had the rubber crack/break off and was told by their customer service it’s considered “normal wear and tear” despite it happening within the first 6 months.
Arm rests will eventually wear out as well causing them to rotate more freely.

@@Urza26 it won't tear up. What I do recommend is putting a thin cushion on top of the seat because sweat could leave some hard to remove stains on the fabric.

I have seen channels like GN lump them in with all the Chinese chairs that are all clones of each other and NO Secret Lab chairs are worth every cent. They're built to handle LONG gaming sessions for years. ❤
Did u get the PU leather version. Does the PU leather peel over time?
@@wes_0110 Both the artificial leather and the Napa leather definitely does not peel. They are extremely high quality leathers.
Source: I own a Titan 2020
@@wes_0110 Like to throw in that I have the Fabric version of the 2020 chair and it's still going strong. Fabric is showing no rips or tears or anything of the sort. The only issue I have, which they kinda fixed in the 2022 version, is the armrest is falling apart and really doesn't do much anymore. I say they "fixed" it because they made it easier to replace.
@@The_Real_Frisbee The backrest part looks quite straight/rigid. Is it hard or deceptively comfortable?
@@quintincoetzee It's a mix of both. It's hard enough to support you but it isn't too hard so you can still lean back in it and be comfortable.
I've had a Secret Labs chair for two years - very happy with it.
What happened after the two years? Did it start peeling off?
@@AlexRaptakis have mine for 2,5 years, zero peeling here. And apparantly there 2022 chairs have more durable leather than mine.
I personally like the NeueChair (owned by SecretLab) and it's miles better than any "gaming" chair.
Had mine for 2 years as well still looks and performs as new
No, it's pretty much as good as new. No sign of wear.
I'm surprised it took you this long to review Secretlab
They had to, otherwise they'd contradict their gaming chair hating video prematurely.
Steve Burke would like to have a word with you about gaming chairs.
Not really a review... just unboxing
Bought an ergonomic chairs and never looked back. Much beter than these heavy gaming chairs
The new QR instructional link will be to this video.
As someone who’s owned a Titan XL for 2 years almost to the day - these chairs are NOT comfortable for a big guy. I’m 6’6 bounce between 285-300lbs for the holidays lol. They even advertise it’s stiff and hard bc it will break in over time…it doesn’t break in…it will break but it will not break in comfort wise. The arm pad cracked horizontally within 3-4 months of owning it and just about a month ago the other one did also. Wide spread common issue with these and SecretLabs did send me new pads for free since it’s under warranty. Just a week ago I was leaning back pewdiepie style and the tilt mechanism broke and it was stuck in this crazy position. Turns out the cast aluminum frame cracked where the spring pushed against to give you the tilt function when you want to lean back. Not the reclining function but the actual tilt you can lock and unlock. To my surprise secret labs asked if I could separate the piston and base…I couldn’t without damaging the chair with a hammer so they just sent me everything from the parts that attach to the bottom cushion to the casters. Their customer support has been stellar in my experience but for a $600 chair I expected more comfort. I highly recommend you extend the warranty by posting your chair online for the free 3 year warranty that kicks in after the 2 year warranty expires.
I've been using the 2020 model and love it. It's handled daily use very well. I just wish it had the vertical lumbar adjustment like the 2022 model does. That magnetic pillow is awesome too.
I like the strap pillow because you can take it on planes or in the car for road trips
I have one of the previous gen on this chair and have used it since the start of the pandemic. It's very comfortable and durable.
The improvements this one brings is height adjustability of the lumbar support (not just in and out), the magnetic pillow and the replaceable armrests.
If I wasn't already happy with my chair, I would buy this in a heartbeat, and I highly recommend it.
Hands down the best chair. My husband got his a few years ago, and I would steal it when he wasn't in office until I got my own. It still looks like new, hold up really well.
Arguably, when I'm away from home for more than a day, I miss my chair more than I miss my husband. It has effectively ruined sitting on any other chair for me.
Main problem, at least with the 2020 model, is that armrests tear up on the sides for many people during first or second year of use.
It's most likely moisture/temperature fluctuation issue so if you don't sweat on it, might be fine.
Support is likely to do a one-time "free" replacement.
What a wife
@@TheUncleSpiderX I have severe back problems, and cannot sit for long on "normal" chairs, so yes.. I'm a bad wife, woo me.
@@coffeestains5213 id woo you 🤷🏾♂️😮💨
terrible wife
Been using the KDA Secretlabs chair this entire year, and my 100% honest opinion, it took a bit to get fully comfortable and tweaking all the things, but, it’s really nice. It costs a pretty penny, but for WFH or long computer sessions, I do recommend it.

Colton's broken Japanese is so funny lmao.
I don't blame him. Japanese is hard for people who aren't familiar with it. Especially English speakers, since Japanese is a phonetically consistent language.
Spending time to learn the rules of a language that you'll never use and still probably pronouncing words poorly is retarded, the Japanese know what's up and don't even bother.
*if you think you can sound like a native Japanese speaker you're dead wrong, you also need to know the tones of a word to a decent degree

I have a regular secret labs titan evo 2022 and honestly it's so comfortable I love this chair, I have the game of thrones stark edition and it looks amazing, it is hard first time you sit in it but the leatherette does soften up overtime give it 1-2 days of use and it becomes really comfortable

I recently got the 2020 Titan XL with softweave fabric, and it is by far the comfiest chair I have ever sat at a desk in. Big props to Secret Labs.
That swappable armrest is good idea for different seasons. Each season different textures
I have the Napa Titan from 2019 and it still looks almost brand new, and I sit in that chair almost every day. Love it.
I do really like this guy here. He's totally cheer me up with his funny spontaneous words. Being relax during recording is not easy, but you both did it so well. Keep going and thanks bro! ~New fan from Malaysia
Just under two months old and the shock is NOT staying in preferred height position. I contacted the warranty department and after a week of communicating and them telling me I must disassemble the chair that takes tools I do not have, I still have a chair that will not function correctly, This was my second chair I purchased from this company. BUYER BEWARE!
I love how the gaming test is just sitting on the chair
I bought my Secretlab Titan 2-3 Years ago and it's still a fantastic chair. You need some time to get used to the quite huge size of this chair (I'm about 178cm tall) but now I don't wanna miss this one. Especially due to the COVID home office and home studying situation, I spend an average of 10-12 Hours a day, 7 days a week in this chair. The only issue I have so far are the armrests, where the material on one of those gave up. Sadly the older versions are not hot-swappable, so the 2022 version looks darn nice to me.
I love how Colton turned into a Secretlab salesman, hands behind his back and all. Just in case LMG lets him go for real haha.
I don't know how far in advance they plan these things but I asked for a Secretlab review in the comments of one of their previous chair reviews, so it feels nice that they listened 😊
I been skip Genshin Impact ads on youtube all the time. Here am I, laughing at Colton dying a little inside reading the ads script.
Aren't you impressed with the five-star sword something gal who will join you in your quest for whatever? These are just so ridiculous 😄
I've got a 2020 Titan XL and love it, only chair I could find that supported the bigger gamer. One of my mates who is 7ft tall tried it, loved it and bought his own as well.
congrats to Secretlab for making it to LTT!!!
Just bought this chair on Tuesday, should be arriving today. Glad to see a good review and that it was money well spent!
An honest review for those looking to pick this chair up:
I picked up a Softweave version of the TITAN Evo 2022 after watching this video, and boy-howdy was the thing the most firm chair I ever sat in. I was not in severe pain after sitting in it for hours like I was with my NeedForSeat I'd had for years, but I was absolutely not comfortable either. I wanted to like it for the nearly two weeks I had it, but I needed to either put up with it like my other chair or be honest with myself. The lumbar adjustment is much more limited than it seems, and the plastic inside started creaking a bit by the time I sent it back ($150 for UPS ground shipping by the way, which is NOT covered by the return policy). I tend to lean back when I watch TH-cam or am not actively using the keyboard, and I kept turning to my side after a bit to try and get more padding from my shoulder. I do also have a standing desk, so I would take breaks from sitting, and that didn't help much either. Also, I don't know if for whatever reason the material would make THAT much of a difference, but I doubt it. Plus, I live in the Desert, so I'd prefer something more breathable.
If you're happy with the chair, all the better! I'd say this is an improvement over most other chairs in the gaming category, and I do hope a lot of the reviews are genuine. Do keep in mind that Secretlab offers a free warranty extension for posting a review of the chair when you are looking at ratings for the chair.
I picked up a Steelcase Leap V2 from an office furniture liquidation place for close to the same price, bit over $500 USD, after trying it out and immediately feeling like this would provide the support I needed. I recommend to see what Herman Miller or Steelcase chairs are nearby your area, go test them out wherever you can being the most important thing, and make your decision from there. Temper your expectations, because its not like sitting on cloud nine, but it feels like I am getting what I need from a chair I sit in all stinkin day.
Hopefully this helps!
may i ask your height and weight sir? this info is valuable but id also like to know if you are bigger/taller than me and had those problems
@@Rodark_GR 5'10" and about 200lbs
@@Brawler365 thank for the reply. oh thats bad, im taller and heavier. did you had the XL model?
@@Rodark_GR I don't recall, and I see any XL markings on the pictures I took. Apologies!
I have the Omega and love it. I've had lots of different chairs in my 45 years on the planet, including gaming and office, and it's the best I've had for my back. I wouldn't say overall comfy as I've had big plush chairs but I would say that I've managed to get it to a great position, I don't get back ache and I can sit in it for hours gaming and doing my thing. I have had a comfy exec chair which felt nicer to sit in but not nicer when I was typing or using my gaming wheel. The Secret Lab ticks more boxes
What executive chair do you have?
@@K----- had, dunno it was my Dad's so would have been cheap. Padding was glorious though and it also had seat tilt function (an absolute must in any chair). Just was leather, which I find too hot, and had fixed arm rests. We actually gave it away. I was disappointed a little when I got the secret labs as the padding just wasn't as plush but once I got my ideal posiiton I decided I wouldn't go back and I got used to the secret labs. I think I'd been spoint by the super thick padding of the old chair
Isn't that the guy that was fired from LMG a few years ago? Why is he here? Is he a guest? does anyone know?
Everyone’s heard he’s fire from a friend or a colleague, bu no-one actually remembers who fired him. Colton spends his days appearing on random LTT videos, and people go along with it because he’s always been there, so they assume someone hired him back. But no-one did. By night he lives in the basement, subsiding on the tears of dislikers and unsubscribers, feasting till he is full and satisfied, only to re-emerge and start the cycle all over again. Some say it is he who places convenient merch in every location, so they are always in hand when needed.
Which guy are you talking about Jake or Colton?
@@wintercame..itwasdisappoin3949 Yes.
I've got a Titan XL from 1-2 years ago and its sooo comfortable. I love it. By far the most i've ever spent on a computer chair but totally worth it. Although I ended up going for the softweave because I thought it would be better, and IMO it is - super spongy and comfortable but still firm enough to support where you need.
hey! :) did u snag leather or fabric? having trouble trying to decide
@@TheMuzzO7 I chose fabric and I have no regrets at all 😎
@@billbrown69 sweet thanks for your reply!!
I really love secret lab's customer service.
I've got a 2019 version of the Titan, and the rocking lock that Dennis couldn't find failed and you couldn't sit upright anymore.
I was out of warrantee, but they still overnighted a replacement part to me, for half off, and free shipping.
I fully expected to be just SOL and they totally pulled through for me.
their support is really awesome, they know the worth of keeping customers unlike many other brands, i asked if the little lumbar support weel not clicking was a considerable expecting to just hear a "its normal wear and tear" but instead they instantly shipped me a whole new backrest( they messed up and sent me the 2016 version so i notified then and they didnt even wait for the wrong one to be shipped back they instantly sent another one)
I really like this series but one of the best things to see, as a consumer, would be all the different ways the chair adjusts. Locking back? Sliding seat? Can it dip down? Please cover every adjustment as sometimes this isn't clear on paper.
Great, now chairs have model years 1 year in the future, just like cars, w h y
Well I have last year's model of this chair and I can right away, just by the video, see the improvements. So yeah.. planned obsolescence at it's finest (he says while ordering that one..)
I have the Titan 2020 series and despite beeing a little heavy and to tall for me, I am so happy my back pain dissapeared. I sit 8h a day in a chair and my back was killing me, I waited more than a month for this chair and after a year I do not regret it, even though for me it costs 1 month and a half of work to afford it.
Those detachable arm pads are gold! My chair's pads did not aged well, I do not know how to explain it but I hope warranty coveres them. I thing both armrests need to be changed so when I saw those armpads I thought "This is brilliant! And also is clear that this is a common problem with this chairs"
My problem when looking at this (well, the smaller version) was that half the people giving them good reviews felt kinda bought (or were about as knowledgable as I am (or less) when it comes to chairs) and the people who didn't like it were, well the one I remember was shorter than Colton and took their largest chair because he liked the look of it (and his complains were, IMO, related to it being made for larger and heavier people).
Personally I'd love it if someone who knows office chairs and quality chairs tested this.
yea lots of "sponsored" reviews makes it hard to tell which ones are actually worth the premium and which ones are just trying to get a higher margin off the backs of gamers and pay a small amount of that toward marketing/promotions costs
I’ve had a Titan since august 2019. Bought a second for the office. They’re amazing.
I got the old version and this seems so much better...damn it
Same. The one I got looks like it's aged five years over the last six months, but this new one looks way better.
I got mine 8 months ago. Still looks and feels great but some of the features of the new chairs made me really want it.
Yeah. Proud that secretlab goes global. Founded in Singapore, island nation.
Colton makes me feel tall!!
Colton reminds me just how short I am because he is still 3 inches taller than me
@@driveby2892 W're the same height, which apparently also makes me the same height as Linus. When he isn't wearing socks and sandals of course.
Proud owner of a Titan gaming chair by SecretLab here. I’ve an one year older version of it but among all gaming chairs on the market, the lumbar support is second to none in comparison to most gaming chairs on the market under 1000$. It’s faux leather but because of that, it has value that most gaming chairs don’t have.
they make very nice chairs, i've the house of Stark from GoT chair its really nice best investment of last year xD
I was going to use this space to compliment Jake and say how excited i am to see him in future videos, but then you brought out Dennis "Live Laugh" Liao and i just want to fanboy.
I have two 2020 Series Titan chairs, and that tells you I love mine. I used my original all through the pandemic, and a lot of my tailbone issues went away. Transitioning back to the office, I just couldn't go back to my okay-ish chair, so I got another. They feel pretty hard to start, but once you're past the break-in period (around a week or two), they feel just right for long computer sessions. I haven't tried any of the other brands, but these are excellent for me, and I guess that's all that matters.
Hey mate. Just wondering... would you still say the same now 2 years later?
I just can't believe this is much better than any other gaming/racing type of seat, and money would be better spent on an actual office chaie
Okay after watching this video, definitely convinced me to get one!
Good luck. I heard this new series is amazing. Nothing but compliments about it.
Well it has to better then the staples office chair I have right?
I have a 2020 omega secret labs chair. Very solid. The pillows are absolutely amazing.
Don’t sleep on the Secret lab chairs they are amazing no need to spend over 1k on a good chair I have one and it’s the best thing ever
Damn, I like that version chair. I should have waited just a few more months before ordering my 2020 version.
Totally thinking who in my life I can gift/sell my 2020 chair so I can get this one
Do an episode on the Steelcase gesture, I have the chair, and really like it.
Daym that chair is really Plush & Supple & the editing too
I truly believe the removable armrest is due to the fact they were having issues with the material cracking along the side of vinyl over time. I would say it was a fault that came to a rework that made the 2022 a much better chair then the 2021. I still have my 2021 and they warrantied my armrest and Love my chair. Secret Lab is a great company that makes amazing chairs!
I'm glad you guys like it. I just bought it 3 days ago and I'm hoping that I enjoy it as much as you guys did.
Took this option to give my own secretlab omega a clean. Had it for about a year now and am very pleased with it.
I will report however that the armrests have begun to dent in and split at the seam on the side since about a month or two back. I don't know if the new ones do that but since the new ones are swappable like that I wouldn't worry too much
Ordered mine today and comes Saturday! My back is so excited!
Denis is just the best! I laugh so hard lol
Yeah sucks they don't bring him on more anymore, he used to be the crowd favorite
I got a secret lab chair around april 2020 and it has been a lifesaver during online classes!
Colton sounded and acted a lot like Michael Scott xD. Does anyone else feel that too??
Sounds and acts*
Picked up a Titan 2021 in March and also got a Herman Miller Aeron at the same time. I needed a chair for my personal PC for gaming, and a chair for my office. I tried both out to decide which gets used for what. The Aeron is the most comfortable chair I have ever bought, but it doesn't work for me with gaming. It is great for sitting back and just enjoying the comfort. Since much of my day is spent in conf calls, the Aeron is perfect for work. For gaming I couldn't get the Aeron to really adjust to sit front and center properly. It does tilt forwards, but it's kinda awkward to try and game like that. The Titan however is pretty stiff and straight. You can certainly recline, but it props your body up as an L shape and makes gaming for me really enjoyable. The chair is incredibly stiff, and I was a bit worried I would hate it because I didn't sink into it like my Aeron and previous leather chair. But after 2 months my body is used to the chair, it's a bit more broken in and I absolutely love the Titan for gaming. Every time I sit in it, the lumbar and stiff fit feels more like a glove. I got the softweave because every pleather and leather chair I have after 8 years has major issues. I'll see if the softweave has the same fate.
You guys should review the autonomous ergochair pro (2)
I’ve had my secret lab chair titan for 3 years now. Will never buy anything else. I’m 6”5 and it works great. My favorite chair I’ve ever used. Cloth edition is easy to clean and looks stunning and feels great
I would like to see what Colton thinks about the nicest chairs from Ikea
After getting a Herman Miller Aeron chair I secretly hate every other chair.
HM Cosm here. Every other chair is a joke to me now...
I've been using a Titan XL for a couple of months now, and I absolutely love it.
I regret not buying the smallest model. I thought adjustable lumbar support would be handy but the thing is that you basically only set it once and never play with it again so kinda of a waste of money on my part plus I would've preferred a little more snug. Might sell mine to get the newer model in regular size.
Colton is THE CHAIR MAN for LTT! Glad he got Dennis involved with this one!
As some rando on the internet, I bought a Secret labs Omega chair for at the beginning of 2020. Outstanding purchase.
The pronounciation of the characters makes me laugh
You should do more of these style of videos with more tech. Just have other workers come in and see their first impressions.
Seeing multiple peoples first impressions is awesome, adds a lot of depth to the review.
I GOT BOUGHT THIS CHAIR BECAUSE OF THIS REVIEW AND I GOT IT FROM THEM BROKEN. THE PLATE FOR THE VERTICAL ARMREST THAT HOLDS IT IN THE WELDS WERE BROKEN. I TRIED FINDING A PHONE NUMBER AND THEY DO NOT SEEM TO HAVE ONE. ALL THEY HAVE IS A FORM TO FILL OUT AND IT REQUIRES A SERIAL NUMBER THAT ISNT ON IT. I JUST GOT THIS YESTERDAY AND I AM NOT THRILLED ABOUT HOW IT WAS DAMAGED OUT OF THE BOX. AT THIS POINT I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THAT PEOPLE BUY IT BECAUSE THIER CS IS LACKING.
I've had my secret lab Titan for just over 2 years. just needed a small cushion pillow for a lil more lumbar support, (my back is stuffed)
12/10 would recomend
I just bought mine, but I can't sit in it for more than 45 minutes without my ass going numb. Seat is NOT comfortable.
EXCELLENT build quality.
EXCELLENT looks
EXCELLENT arm rest adjustments.
EXpensive.
Good back support
How does it have good back support if it makes you numb?
@@benrosenberg3489 The pressure it's putting on my legs/butt. I don't get the lower back (spinal) pain I used to. But then that might also be because this seat helps encourage better posture.
I bought one of these last year , these chairs definitely do have a "break-in" period. It took about a week or so for the foam to soften up a bit.
@@fernandospqr Fair, but I am going on about 4 months of use.
I got the G2 esports model a year ago. not that i'm into G2 or other esports, it's that it was the only one in stock at the time. I like mine a lot, very comfy, even the surface of all the cushioning is durable, ok well up to a point... we do have cats so yea... haha. Also, the warranty is good, if you follow thier guidelines you can get an extra 3 years of it extended.
The things I changed on my chair:
It doesn't have the swappable arm rests and the arm rests that come with it are not very cushiony but that's easily solved with some 3rd party arm rest covers from amazon.
the head rest cushion on mine is not magnetic, but i never use it anyway, only my 7 yr old would use it because he is much smaller than me. last thing, I also got a set of replacement wheels, so instead of plastic they are now roller blade wheels, the plastic wheels can eventually scuff and leave marks on the floor.
