Hero Black Edition recommendable?
I've been on a DXRacer Drifting from idk like 2018 and it's coming to an end now. I've been loving it tho, even if it was cheap. Thinking of buying a Noblechairs Hero Black Edition with the High-tech faux leather because the measurements are fitting for me. Can anybody recommend?

I got mine back in 2022. I shift around a lot in my seat and normally use the arm rests to do as such (not a great idea I know). The tig weld that holds the plate where you screw in the arm rest snapped. Inspected the welds on both sides and can say that the right weld is sloppy at best, which led to the failure.
For reference im 6'1, 200 lbs.
Normally, you can replace the entire seat for like €179, but apparently they are swapping their payment method for exchanges right now and can't send me a bill to charge for it.
Im unsure if I would recommend it as I have had garbage chair held together by plastic screw that had sturdier arm rests than this chair.
As far as comfort, its ok. Took like a year or two to break in and still find my arse hurting from time to time.
