This is the chair I am most likely to get next. It looks great and gets good reviews. It is a shame that Briony has left Kitguru. She wasn't a bad reviewer.
Looks better than most gaming chairs, but the two pillows seem like a poor solution to lumbar support and headrest on office chairs. The human back is not flat so why is the chair back flat?
I feel the exact same way. That's why the Hero or Titan is a better choice, with the built in lunar support dial. Unfortunately, for my height, this is the chair that Noblechairs recommends. 5 10 220lbs.
Hi Briony, Great video, good balanced lighting, no harsh shadows, the sound was clear, even and easy to hear. Rather enjoyed the fast forward take of you putting the chair together ;) Would have been funny to start it off by doing it while giving the setup take LOL would have sounded like Alvin the chipmunk after inhaling helium :P. The music score was delightfully appropriate, and the extra added advertisement to your YT channel in the background on your streamer was a good idea ! Your observation about the chair being firm at first and easing up to become softer after a while, was on par with what Brian @badseedtech said when he reviewed the chair. At the 6m33s mark, I agree with the lumbar pillow not being secure. I think noble could have done away with this issue by simply adding 2-3 vertical strips of "hook and loop" matierial [aka velcro] starting from where the backrest touches the seat portion, and have it extend up the backrest for about.4-8", to accommodate people of all heights. Hook and loop comes in many colors so it would blend into the chair once it's fixed to the leather. Plus you or anyone else won't even see it sticking out from behind the lumbar pillow much when it's vacant, and certainly not when you're sitting in it. All in all I enjoyed the video review, and will def look for your earlier ones to see if there is a product I'd like info on. BTW, you may now consider me a loyal subscriber, I liked it, and I hope my comments were found useful. :) Cheers Briony !
Came for the chair, stayed for the hair. But in all seriousness, I have been looking for a new chair for ages and this one speaks to me the most because it has nothing of this gaming chair racing-style hideousness going on and it looks very "free".
@@i_Vex169 still holding up but now been using a Herman Miller embody and I’ve never looked back! The embody is next level and worth the price of admission
I have had an EPIC Series Real Leather for about a year now and can agree with the build quality, it is very well made, however, I find the quality of the arms let it down somewhat. If the arm rests were leather cushioned as well then I would be a happy bunny. Nice review Briony, you seem to be getting the hang of it now.
I bought a gaming chair Noble chairs Icon leather series. Although the price is much higher than the average gaming chair, the quality is really good. The thick leather chair is really comfortable to sit on! You can know it by actually comparing it!!
Still enjoying this chair? I just ordered the Sprout Edition (green) Epic model. They don't have any colored models in leather. So it's Faux but it should be nice.. I hope.
dude, chill on the corrections [tohmaytoe ; tohmaughtoe , pronounced phonetically]. Makes no diff man. You obviously understood what she meant. So maybe try to look at the presentation for it's content and information instead of "railing" [pointing out in public] someone for pronouncing a word the way THEY pronounce it. . . instead of how you WANT it pronounced. Just so you know, I'm not trolling on you man, its simply an observation and suggestion and that's it.
this may be a weird question, but can you sit on the front of the seat without the chair falling over? I ask this because i would like to use this when playing guitar in my home studio. thanks.
Thanks. Here in Brazil, for some reason, the ICON Real Leather version cost 30% more than the EPIC Real Leather version, and for me, the "gaming chair style" is not comfortable like a real supercar seat, such as a GT3RS or a 458 Speciale. I'm afraid to spend less on PU version and to peel or spoil the leather in 1 year at least.
I have one in pu-leather and I think it is absolutely amazing. The fake leather is of really high quality and if you have cats like me, real leather is a no go anyway. :D I also had back problems which have become less and less in the months I have this chair.
I hear it's really firm and that scares me since my back is severely bad. I also dont like lumbar pillows. Is the chair good for lumbar support without a pillow?
Hi there, I was wondering if this chair is comfortable while sitting cross legged? My only issue with these gaming chairs is that the seating area has elevated sides which seem a bit uncomfortable for sitting in an Indian style position.Thanks for your video! :)
Would you rather have hero, icon or epic? I have the hero in leather. Just wondering if the adjustable lumbar support makes a massive difference in the hero compared to the icon (which doesnt include the adjustable lumbar support) because I want to get my girlfriend the icon. The hero is a bit tall for her thats why I am looking at the icon in leather. Just worried about the lumbar support in the icon compared to the hero.
random one but can you sit cross legged in this? sadly i cant sit properly on a chair because im weird and i noticed the flat base and instantly thought i can sit cross legged xD
Thank you for your nicely done review : ) Both my NobleChair Icon "Cognac" in real leather, and my wife's NobleChair Hero "black" in real leather will be delivered to us today.
After a year, how has it held up? Did the seat get any softer? I'm looking for a new chair and want something I can lean back and relax in front of a TV but weary of how hard a lot of the gaming chairs I've sat in are or are said to be. Lots of people say the Secret Lab chairs are really firm.
Hi , Can you help me ? I really wanna have a nice lumbar support mechanism like in the TItan or the Hero noble chair one not a shitty pilow. But these are meant for biger/taller people, i am only 1m73. Have you found any good chair with nice lumbar support for people like me please ? Thanks a lot
Great review. Thanks Briony. I get that the leather makes for a higher price, which is a nice option. Not sure £200 makes it a great option, and the chair looks good, but what is different about it? Why buy this chair over say, a Maxnomic, a GT Omega, or a DX Racer? I have a Maxnomic and I have a GT Omega and they look exactly like this Noble. I'd like to see a brand try something innovative with their high end chairs.
I've not tried those brands out for a review unfortunately so I don't have a huge amount of experience with them. However I do agree most of the high end chairs are a very similar design. The thing that I think makes this chair a bit different to others that I've seen is the unique leather colours available and the more relaxed shape. noblechairs build quality also seems to be excellent but I'm not sure how it varies to the others you mentioned. It would be nice to see a company bring out something truly unique :)
Briony Hannam You must try them. Gaming chair reviews are few and far between and certainly not brand or range extensive. I appreciate shipping is a pain, and sending them back is not easy, and if you keep them, what do you do with them; but these companies have to appreciate that you can't just walk into your local Staples and try these chairs out. Reviewers shift merchandise. You're right. The colours are more refined on the Noble. They are far removed from the in-your-face colours of the huge E Sports range offered by Maxnomic. Plus, I suppose the curves are less defined, so it leans more to the office chair design. A bit. But the armrests, the wheels, the plastic covers hiding the reclining mechanism, the paddle adjust, all the same and have been for years. But the lumbar pillow not having straps is a real oversight by Noble. However, they all suffer from the same thing. You touched on it in your review. They are all too high. As you said, you are not short. I'm 6 foot, and I find on their lowest setting, they are comfortable. As you go up the range with all these chairs, they up the weight limit but also up the the height range. So a short, lightweight girl can't have a top of the range chair? And a tall heavyset guy can't have the entry level design? OK, there is a shorter gas ram available, but why is the ability to choose one or the other not an option on ordering? Over and above this, unless your desk is a sit/stand job, what desk requires a seat base height of 58cm anyway? Anyway, rant over. Keep 'em coming please :)
I was messed around by Secretlab with over 4 months of delays and terrible customer service, so I cancelled and got a refund. I have just now ordered the Noble Icon leather chair in the cognac colour. Your review has given me peace of mind I made the right decision 😅
@@hahn-solo thank you so much for responding now I can have peace of mind! I just bought it im exited, just curious how much did it take to ship and arrive?
can anyone who owns this chair please comment on the firmness of the seat? I've had mine for about 4 days now and the seat occasionally hurts my butt. Does it soften up? I like the chair otherwise and would like to keep it. Also probably worth mentioning, my feet barely touch the floor and I can feel pressure on the back of my leg..could this be the reason for the discomfort?
Are you still using this chair and if so, how is it holding up on the build and comfort?
WOuld be interesting.
@@DJCREEDHDSQ sure would
I really like the way her to review an item with detail
This is the chair I am most likely to get next. It looks great and gets good reviews.

gotta make more than a 700 dollar sacrifice for that sleek adult boring design.

Bought one of these today, must say it's a dream, from a wheel barrow to a Noble chair....lol, excellent purchase. Thank you for the review...
how is it holding up?
Came for the chair, stayed for the hair.
But in all seriousness, I have been looking for a new chair for ages and this one speaks to me the most because it has nothing of this gaming chair racing-style hideousness going on and it looks very "free".
Couldn't ask for a better review. Thanks.
Thank you for sharing your video with us..really appreciated..
Love your reviews! Have the icon now for a month now and I love it!
How it holding up ?
@@i_Vex169 still holding up but now been using a Herman Miller embody and I’ve never looked back! The embody is next level and worth the price of admission
Yea i want buy icon but i saw many problems in build quality on reddit do you recommend me buying it ?
Congratulations for this video, i really like it and it also helped me.
Hi Briony, beautiful review. how did you have the epic too, which one is more comfortable?
Can we get a full video of that lava lamp on high speed
Thanks, really useful to see the construction too :)
holy mothership of lava lamps! can we get a link for it as well?

If the arm rests were leather cushioned as well then I would be a happy bunny. Nice review Briony, you seem to be getting the hang of it now.
how is the chair holding up?
How is it now afer 4 years ?
You can purchase the arm rest softener material and attach it.
I have the faux leather and I absolutely love it. My bum and back have never thanked me so much.
How its holding up ?
Wish the chair seat would drop to a lower setting. You mentioned a shorter gas lift for the chair, but I found no such option on their site.
I bought a gaming chair Noble chairs Icon leather series. Although the price is much higher than the average gaming chair, the quality is really good. The thick leather chair is really comfortable to sit on! You can know it by actually comparing it!!
thanks for this video
I was looking for something more classy and subtle.
nothing too flashy and colorful
witch is your favorite? icon epic or hero??? i cant decide im a skinny guy with 1.85m
Still enjoying this chair? I just ordered the Sprout Edition (green) Epic model. They don't have any colored models in leather. So it's Faux but it should be nice.. I hope.
Very nice review, keep going
Good video explaining how to put together a gaming chair, it was excellent.
Greetings from Venezuela.
Cognac..... its pronounced 'kon - yak' :)
I really murdered that pronunciation :'D
haha I have heard worse on youtube, much worse. I call it Brandy anyway :)
Brandy and Cognac are not the same thing, cognac is a brandy but from a specific area, not all brandies are cognac.
Liquor snobs unite!

Is the hero or this one more comfortable?
supralex1 which Color do you have my friend ? :)
Made in uk?
pls ask her to do more review...i just like the way she deliver and talk. thanks
But that ICON version is more comfortable than the White EPIC you already have?
They are very very similar :)The Icon is more of a relaxed shape. I prefer the epic as the colour matches my set up better.
Thanks. Here in Brazil, for some reason, the ICON Real Leather version cost 30% more than the EPIC Real Leather version, and for me, the "gaming chair style" is not comfortable like a real supercar seat, such as a GT3RS or a 458 Speciale.

what should i pick pu leather or real leather ?
Very cool im a fan of noblechairs, great work Briony.
I'd get this if it had basic functionality of any desk chair, some arch in the back.
What about the lumbar pillow, buddy? wouldn't it do the trick?
Good information about the product
Hi there, I was wondering if this chair is comfortable while sitting cross legged? My only issue with these gaming chairs is that the seating area has elevated sides which seem a bit uncomfortable for sitting in an Indian style position.Thanks for your video! :)
Are you serious ?
i'm 5'11'', would this be too small for me?
I wonder what this would be like in a hot summer. Doesn't matter whether you're fat or thin...hot summers can be somewhat sticky on proper leather lol
i want to have this chair looks soo comfortable
Would you rather have hero, icon or epic? I have the hero in leather. Just wondering if the adjustable lumbar support makes a massive difference in the hero compared to the icon (which doesnt include the adjustable lumbar support) because I want to get my girlfriend the icon.

random one but can you sit cross legged in this? sadly i cant sit properly on a chair because im weird and i noticed the flat base and instantly thought i can sit cross legged xD
Thank you for information so I like. This upload
The icon version has softer padding/foam than the epic series.
What about the Hero ? Ty
So I hope everyone has had a good weekend and if not hopefully this will cheer you up. I got my hands
Thank you for your nicely done review : ) Both my NobleChair Icon "Cognac" in real leather, and my wife's NobleChair Hero "black" in real leather will be delivered to us today.

Jan Lim I think you have miss read what I wrote.
a kind of chair that can be relaxing to seat off but very expensive a guest?

Briony says the back is flat, but Noblechairs says it does. No pillow needed. What's the truth?
Subbed. The real leather version is pricier, but i'm looking into something that will last for a long time as well.
I Love watching videos with her
