DXRacer Tank Series: The Colossal Gaming Throne That Reigns Supreme

When I first saw the DXRacer Tank Series arrive at my door, I’ll admit—I felt like a kid who’d just won the lottery. At 6'4″, I’ve sat in more than my fair share of seats that pinch, sag, or simply refuse to fit my frame. The Tank Series, though? It greets you with the confidence of a medieval throne, promising both swagger and support.

 

Out of the box, the Tank Series makes one thing perfectly clear: this is no office chair. It’s gargantuan—so much so that I had trouble fitting it into my door. Every panel, from the reinforced steel frame to the high-density foam padding wrapped in rich PU leather, communicates solidity. The stitching is tidy, the angle of the armrests precise, and the subtle DXRacer logo embossed on the headrest adds a quiet air of prestige rather than loud racing-sponsor bling. Despite its size, the chair’s modular assembly was straightforward. I wrestled with the heavy base for a good five minutes—this thing is built like a tank, after all—then tightened a few bolts and snapped the armrests into place. Even if you’d never assembled IKEA furniture before, a patient friend (or a well-oiled screwdriver) will see you through.

 

Once I settled in, the Tank Series proved to be more than just eye candy. The high backrest cradles my shoulders perfectly, and the adjustable lumbar cushion clicks snugly into position, keeping fatigue at bay during marathon sessions. I lost count of how many hours I spent locked in Helldivers 2 without needing to shift—and that’s saying something, given my previous chair would have me up and pacing by hour two. Testing with my wife—who’s a solid 5'8"—was equally revealing. She remarked how “luxurious” it felt, noting the plush seat and supportive armrests despite her petite frame. I half-suspected she was just being polite, but when she asked to borrow it for her home-office setup, I knew the Tank Series had conquered both our posterior preferences.

 

 

What makes the Tank stand out isn’t just its size, but how customizable it is to you. Tilt tension knobs, four-direction armrests, and a recline range that lets you lean back nearly horizontal all work in concert to create a personalized fit. The gas lift is smooth and responsive—even when I raise it to its absolute limit, there’s no “bottoming out,” and the chair feels rock-solid under my weight. The PU leather deserves special mention: it’s dense enough to resist sagging, yet soft enough that I never felt like I was perched on a slab of plastic. After three weeks of daily, eight-hour gaming stints, the cover shows zero signs of wear or stretch.

 

If there’s a drawback, it’s exactly what makes the Tank Series so unique: its monstrous footprint. My gaming desk, designed for a slimline office chair, suddenly felt like a dollhouse. Sliding the Tank under the desk is impossible without rearranging my entire setup—and that’s before factoring in the armrests at their widest points. Yet, to chalk this up as a flaw feels unfair. DXRacer built the Tank as their largest, most commanding chair to date. If you crave desk-side subtlety, this isn’t your ride. But if you want a statement piece—a true “gaming throne”—then its size is exactly what you signed up for.

 

 

The DXRacer Tank Series delivers on every front that matters to a serious gamer: size, support, premium materials, and rock-solid build quality. Yes, you’ll need to clear sufficient real estate around your setup—and yes, it commands a premium price—but for anyone who prioritizes comfort and presence in equal measure, the Tank Series is a great choice for taller customers.
