Even those of you who spend your days seriously playing games in a gaming environment with a gaming desk and gaming desk chair, there are times when you want to relax and play games in a more leisurely manner. Lounging around on the sofa in the living room while playing games is great, but don't you sometimes find that your arms and back ache from the strange postures you end up in? There are gaming chairs that can be used in a low table environment, but most of them are legless versions of gaming chairs, so they don't match the interior design of the living room, or they don't match the relaxing atmosphere you want when gaming. Bauhutte has come up with a chair for those who want to play games or read books in a relaxed and comfortable posture! Bauhutte has released the "Hug Pod," a gaming chair with adjustable armrests to support your posture!
ローテーブル派必見のふかふかクッションのゲーミング座椅子！「Bauhutte Gaming Floor Sofa Chair GX-350」発表！
A chair that supports your entire arm in any posture
The "Hug Pod" gaming chair is equipped with armrests that bend and lift, giving you the comfort of a gentle hug.
The " variable armrests," the most distinctive feature of this chair, can be bent inward up to 70°, supporting not only the elbows but also the entire arm. You can operate a controller or smartphone in a stable posture, and you can stay in a comfortable posture because you don't have to strain your arms.
The "variable armrest" is not only "bendable" but also " moveable. The armrests can be moved up and down in six positions, allowing you to adjust the height at which you can naturally rest your arms according to your physique and playing style, or according to the degree to which the backrest is reclined. The "Hug Pod" can be adjusted to suit the most comfortable sitting posture at any given time, making it possible for a single "Hug Pod" to serve as multiple seating units.
Hugpod" is not just a "variable armrest," but it is also a comfortable seat with a 3-layer structure consisting of 9 pocket coils (9pcs ) wrapped with chip urethane and cut urethane. The seat is soft and comfortable like a sofa, so you do not feel your buttocks bottoming out.
When sitting in a relaxed posture, the buttocks tend to slide down, which puts a strain on the lower back . The "Hug Pod" is designed with a seat that is forward, making it easier to maintain a stable posture even when leaning back with your body resting against the backrest. The seat width is 48 cm in the front and 46 cm in the back, which is also comfortable.
The backrest is equipped with a seat-integrated lumbar support and headrest. They provide firm support for the lower back and neck, which tend to be burdened when sitting for long periods of time. Both the seat and back are made of soft-to-the-touch fabric, which is more breathable and less stuffy than leather, making it suitable for sitting for long hours.
The seat can be reclined in 10 positions up to a maximum of 150°. The angle can be adjusted to the most comfortable angle for game play, watching TV or movies, reading, resting, and so on.
The "Hug Pod" does not have casters on the legs to ensure a stable installation. Instead of casters, the pedestal swivels, making it very easy to use in the living room.
As a very nice Bauhutte touch, side bars are provided on the left and right sides of the seat. This makes the "Hug Pod" even more comfortable and advanced, as it can be attached to a tablet arm or other clamp-on device (sold separately).
Behind the backrest is a back pocket, which is a nice feature to have. Once you sit down in the "Hug Pod," it becomes a chore to get up, so you can store remotes, magazines, and other frequently used items in the pocket.
No matter how useful something is, there are times when you don't use it. The more solid the construction, the more difficult it is to store, but "Hug Pod" can fold down its backrest. It is nice to be able to compact it down when storing it in a closet or in storage.
One thing to keep in mind when using the "Hug Pod" is that you should not put your weight on the "adjustable armrests" when standing up. Due to its design, it may be damaged if excessive weight is applied to it from above. It is easy to put your weight on the armrests when standing up, but be careful not to do so with "Hug Pods.
