F-GT Lite

I was pretty big into sim racing on Xbox with a wheel set up on a desk 6 or so years ago, and haven't touched my wheel in about 3 years. I decided To get it back out, and since I now have room for a cockpit, but didn't necessarily want it set up and taking up space permanently, I thought this would be a good option. I just set it up yesterday and only have about 4 hours of seat time, so I'll share my first impressions, and will update if anything changes. The Good: It had significantly less set up than expected, most of it is already assembled, and is pretty simple if you have the right tools (more on this below) It is very adjustable, but upon Initial set up I just kinda eyeballed it, and pretty much nailed it (gt layout) The seat is very comfortable for me, its not a plushy couch, but it gets the job done, and is great for what it is. The office chair i was using prior made my back hurt after about 45 minutes of continuous use, and I feel like I can sit in this all day and be just fine! I am about 5'8, and 270 lbs. So Im short and wide, but it fits me perfectly. It also feels sturdy while sitting in it. The bad: upon opening the box, I had a nut immediately fall out, thankfully I figured out where it went. Im a mechanic, so I know how to work with tools. The slots that the tubes slide into are very tight, which probably helps with stability and durability. However, it was near impossible to slide them in far enough for the bolt holes to line up. I tried pushing as hard as I could, beating it in with my hand/fist, even putting my entire body weight on it, and they still wouldn't slide in far enough to line up. Ended up getting a 5 lb hammer and a rag to protect my new purchase, and it didnt take much beating to get the holes lined up after that! Also, the included tools are your typical cheap throw away tools. They will work, but using a drill probably cut set up time by at least half. Also, as a tip, if you have a cheaper wheel like I do, and it only has a clamp on the bottom, you may struggle a bit to have the plate in a far enough away position to be comfortable driving, but close enough that it actually will clamp down, as a support bar interferes with the area below the plate, and may cause some spacing issues with the clamp. I have yet to attempt to completely fold it up, but it appears pretty simple and would probably take less than 5 minutes, especially if you've done it a time or 2. Overall, Im very happy with my purchase and would highly recommend.

Overall cannot complain with this chair. With multiple different sitting positions and changes you can make it really is an all in one. The chair is built with quality items, but being adjustable just means it has a little movement when sitting in it. Nothing too noticeable. I am a tall person at 6'3" and the chair adjusted to fit me well. Chair also folds down nicely to be stored, but does take some effort to do so. I ended up just sliding it out of the way instead.

Very nice bang for buck. The chair was relatively easy to set up and install. Make sure you have correct mounting hardware for your wheelbase. Package came with equipment to mount the pedalboard securely. Personally returned it as it was amazing in the GT position, but I didn't feel quite comfortable in the Formula seating position and had some major frame bending when pressing hard on the pedals whilst in the reclined Formula position. Bought it renewed, but there were some major scuffing and deep gashes in some of the metal rods. Still usable and secure, but for less than 10% off the initial price, it didn't seem valid. All in all, though this is a solid choice for beginner-intermediate sim racing rig set-ups. For myself, I would rather get the dedicated GT cockpit or the dedicated Formula cockpit. But this isn't a bad place to start if you are unsure of which one you prefer.

Since I've seen some folks complaining about this in the reviews, giving it 1 stars because they didn't read the item description, let me start off with this: IT DOESN'T COME WITH ELECTRONICS, NOR DOES IT CLAIM TO. Now on to the item review: If I could, I would give it 4.9 stars, but that isn't possible, and it's closer to 5 than 4. The only complaint I really have is that the black on black construction of the pipes and joints makes it very difficult to see when the bolt holes are aligned, and as such makes assembly a little more tedious. So far, I have only used it in the GT setup. For its price point, it is an excellent starter rig for someone on a budget or someone low on space. I live in a small apartment and wanted an upgrade from the folding metal chair and wooden TV table that I had been using. It doesn't come with monitor mounts, but honestly that's totally fine to me as I race and play using my Oculus Quest 2 in VR. It is fairly comfortable, though I might suggest a pillow if you're going to be in it for a while, I spent 5 hours today flying passenger missions in Elite Dangerous and my rump did get a little tired of it. Sidenote: in addition to my Logitech G920 that I use for NASCAR Heat 5, Forza7 and iRacing, I've also been using it with my Thrustmaster T.flight Hotas One when I play Elite Dangerous, and it works very well, and I am designing a custom interchangeable mount for it.

Rapport qualité prix imbattable! Setup avec G923, solide, position agréable, reglable dans n'importe quelle position pour Formula et GT (Assetto Corsa, F1, WRC, ...)

A few screws were loose in the box, and could have easily been lost. Took a while to assemble, but worth the effort. Very adjustable, and comfortable, and stable once set up right. Love it.

Répond a mon besoin ! C'est beaucoup plus agréable de jouer au jeux de voiture ! il a l'air plutôt robuste Petit point négatif : ce n'est pas simple de le replier

hay que ver el video para poderlo ensamblar, es muy resistente gran calidad de materiales y sencilla después de armar y desarmar unas veces le agarras la onda para ponerla y quitarla ya que el tamaño plegada permite guardarla sin estorbar si tienes donde dejarla plegada, buenísima para iniciar en el racing con tu consola. es muy comoda

Great product for kids and average size body. Not Ideal for XL+ size body
