That Time I Didn’t Think A Chair Could Upgrade My Setup… Until I Tried the TTRacing Maxx Pro: A Review 

I used to think a chair was just a chair; as long as it stayed steady and silent when I leaned back, I was content. After countless hours hunched over my gaming station, working, or pretending I’d only been there a short while, I began to wonder if a better seat could really make a difference. The first time I saw TTRacing Maxx chairs years back, everything about my routine—and my back—transformed. I uncovered the ergonomic bliss and allure of a gaming seat. I thought it was perfect. That changed when I discovered the TTRacing Maxx Pro today.

The Maxx Pro is TTRacing’s latest gaming chair, having officially launched in Taiwan this June. I hadn’t anticipated it would overhaul my current setup, but after using it for a while, I can genuinely say it has. So, here’s what caught my attention, what I adore, and whether I believe the TTRacing Maxx Pro gaming chair is truly a sound purchase. 

First Impressions

At first glance, the Maxx Pro delivers a bold impression. It exuded a high‑end feel straight from the box, and its assembly was fairly simple, completing in under 30 minutes. My Air Threads Fabric – Blossom version showcased a sleek, sturdy, modern aesthetic without being garish. When it stood elegantly upright at the room’s center, it instantly convinced me of its durability.

A closer look sparked my excitement. I observed that the Maxx Pro was noticeably lighter and its base glided more fluidly. The materials obviously improved, featuring premium Air Threads Fabric, plush velour, and memory foam cushions that felt fluffier than ever. Meanwhile, the TTRacing logo graces both headrest sides with a raised finish, harmonizing with the metallic threads along the ultra‑soft, velvety Air Threads accents. The overall design remains simple yet captivating, perfectly reflecting the Maxx’s quiet yet assertive character.

When it comes to upholstery, unlike the rubbery texture of the Maxx Gojo gaming chair or the textured surface of the Maxx Luffy gaming chair, the Maxx Pro offers a gentle, silky smoothness. The ample space combined with the memory foam’s subtle spring creates an exceptional, luxurious feel. It truly boggles the mind how a chair can be this relaxing! Imagine those serene moments when a character leans back, closes their eyes for a second, and the world slows down – the TTRacing Maxx Pro captures that tranquil sensation remarkably well.

Sitting down, I instantly felt the magic. The body‑hugging fit, firm backrest, contoured lumbar support, magnetic upgraded pillows, 5D velour foam‑padded armrests, extendable leg rests, and a recline up to 135 degrees – it provides all the comfort and functionality needed for extended periods of work, play, rest, and everything in between.

Daily Work, Comfort, and Style

Let’s be frank: many of us spend far too much time seated. Whether we’re hitting work deadlines, climbing ranked matches, editing videos, or convincing ourselves “just one more episode” (which always stretches into much more), our chairs subtly decide if we stay productive or start counting down the minutes until our back protests. After using the TTRacing Maxx Pro for several weeks, I began to notice and value the subtle details I had previously overlooked.

For example, the customization is truly transformative. I no longer found myself constantly fidgeting to find a comfortable position, and lengthy days at the computer became noticeably easier. I stayed free of soreness or warmth, likely thanks to the breathable perforated backrest. I also realized I might now appreciate leg rests. Admittedly, I once thought these features were gimmicky. Now, they feel perfect for stretching my legs, relaxing, and staying comfortable. And goodness, the chair’s 135‑degree recline is so effective that my 15‑minute breaks can stretch into hours.

I also re‑discovered the charm of the Air Threads Fabric. Transitioning from Hybrid Leatherette, the fabric offered a cool, cloud‑like support without stiffness. Extended workdays remained cool, and the velour delivered that pleasant, fuzzy sensation. My workspace now feels distinct – I’m inspired, productive, and comfortable. It’s the subtle support that brings me genuine appreciation.

Above all, my favorite aspect of the TTRacing Maxx Pro is the magnetic foam headrest and the padded adjustable armrests. To be upfront, these were my pain points with the original TTRacing Maxx. I was too short to reach the head and armrests, and while I adored that spacious chair, I had to keep a pillow nearby. So, imagine my delight when TTRacing went the extra mile for the Maxx Pro.

“Every feature on the Maxx Pro was born from someone’s discomfort somewhere, and we refused to accept that as normal. The magnetic neck pillow, contoured lumbar, and retractable legrest weren’t just box‑checking—they’re concrete solutions to real issues our users have shared. When we say we have your back, we mean it—literally.” — Sharlley Tan, Product Development Head, TTRacing

Now, the headrest no longer requires fiddling with straps; it magnetically clicks into position and slides along a 20 cm vertical range, keeping my head and shoulders comfortably supported. I was also pleasantly surprised by the armrests’ versatility—they move up, down, forward, backward, and rotate 360°, allowing me to adjust them for any task, whether I’m typing, editing, gaming with a controller, or diving into my third hour of anime marathon. Aside from the initial slip when I hadn’t secured the angle, everything feels flawless, and I’m truly delighted.

You see, I’m convinced that the best chairs blend comfort and durability. They evolve with you, becoming a space where you can focus on work, game for hours, take a nap, or simply be without constantly readjusting. While the original TTRacing Maxx set new standards for gaming chairs, the Maxx Pro pushes the envelope even further. It demonstrates that TTRacing isn’t just crafting excellent gaming seats; they’re re‑imagining every detail to make sitting more comfortable than ever before.

Final Thoughts

Overall, I find the TTRacing Maxx Gaming Chair outstanding. It strikes a balance between visual appeal and thoughtful ergonomic design, and it’s far more than just an upgrade; it embodies TTRacing’s continuous mission to craft and deliver a premium comfort experience that users truly deserve.

Consequently, this chair was engineered with precision for every daily routine. I can personally vouch for this, having been familiar with and using their chairs for the past three years. To date, my TTRacing chairs remain sturdy with minimal signs of wear; the craftsmanship quality is evident, so I have little concern about the Maxx Pro’s longevity.

Even though it isn’t the most budget‑friendly option, the combination of comfort, construction quality, and adjustability makes it feel like a solid investment. For those who spend extended hours at a desk, its value becomes increasingly apparent over time. Therefore, I sincerely believe the TTRacing Maxx Pro chair is well worth the purchase, and I wholeheartedly recommend it.

Nevertheless, there are advantages and drawbacks to weigh, depending on individual preferences, lifestyle, and environmental factors. To assist you, here’s a concise overview of my TTRacing Maxx Pro Gaming Chair review:

• Air Threads Fabric. My Blossom edition features Air Threads Fabric combined with plush velour and cold‑cure foam, delivering a soft, breathable, and comfortable seating experience. It feels far cozier than my Gojo chair’s Hybrid Leatherette. Even though fabric has its own set of pros and cons (listed on the site), I’m happy to embrace them because, frankly, I adore pink.
• Ergonomic Curved Lumbar and Design. The chair includes a spacious, open‑ended seat base, and its ergonomic backrest is engineered to align with the spine’s natural S‑curve. The memory foam, particularly the lumbar and magnetic neck pillows, offers softness with solid support where needed, providing modest relief from back discomfort and suitable for extended work and gaming sessions. As someone who spends all day sitting, typing, drawing, and writing, the consistent support is crucial for me.
• Spacious and Comfy. The chair accommodates heights from 165 to 200 cm, making it quite roomy. Although I’m 160 cm tall, I still find it very comfortable and snug. Since I own a footstool, if you enjoy folding your legs, this chair allows that comfortably. The new extendable leg rest truly transforms the experience, offering an ideal way to stretch my legs and relax.
• 135‑degree Full Recline. The multi‑tilt mechanism excels for those who need to reset and unwind while seated. I find it excellent for brief naps and maintaining a cozy posture.
• 5D Adjustable Armrests. Soft cushions provide 360° mobility, allowing precise positioning to suit any seat arrangement. They can be reconfigured for tasks ranging from mobile use to unconventional sitting styles, and they can be aligned over a desk – a subtle comfort feature that makes a noticeable difference.
• Stable Base. The aluminum foundation, Class 4 SGS hydraulics, and chrome casters easily support the entire weight of this sizable chair, including myself. Its rolling motion is exceptionally smooth.
• Affordability. Priced at PHP 24,499 (down from an original PHP 31,599, roughly USD 512), it isn’t as costly as some alternatives and feels like a solid investment for enhanced comfort. For a premium gaming chair in Asia, the Maxx Pro stands out as reasonably priced.
• Style. The chair is customizable, visually appealing, well‑constructed, and, most notably, it comes in pink!

Just as I mentioned in my earlier ONE PIECE and JUJUTSU KAISEN chair reviews, investing in a quality chair translates to investing in yourself, your well‑being, and overall life quality. Ultimately, your seat is more than ordinary furniture; it should serve as the ideal companion, offering unwavering support as you engage in work, hobbies, and daily life. It fulfills adult self‑care, soothes your inner child, and encourages living in the present moment. The TTRacing Maxx Pro embodies that ideal.
