Anda Seat Kaiser Series 3 XL is the cheapest since July: the price of the premium gaming chair dropped by 4,200 CZK

A good gaming chair is not a purchase for a year, but for several years, and its price reflects that. The Anda Seat Kaiser Series 3 XL now costs 9,799 CZK instead of 13,999 CZK with code ALZADNY30, which is its lowest price since July. With a weight capacity of up to 200 kg and larger dimensions, it is primarily designed for sturdier users and offers features typically not found in cheaper competitors.

Quick summary:
✅ It makes sense if you want a robust chair for long hours at the computer, appreciate the built-in lumbar support, and are a taller or sturdier build.
⚠️ Consider that the seat is quite firm, it may start to creak over time, and people over 190 cm complain about the low maximum height.
💡 For 9,799 CZK, you get a piece designed to last – but it’s a choice for a specific type of seating, not for everyone.

Why people have been praising the Anda Seat Kaiser Series 3 for years

This chair lives and dies by its construction. Reviews repeatedly state that it is a sturdy, heavy piece with a metal base that doesn’t wobble and feels more like a throne than a regular office chair. In addition, Anda Seat includes features typically not found in cheaper competitors: The Kaiser Series 3 XL has lumbar support built directly into the backrest, which you adjust with side wheels, so you don’t have to deal with a cushion on an elastic band that keeps falling off.

The second thing users highlight is the magnetic head pillow with memory foam and cooling gel – it stays in place with a magnet, so you can move it exactly where you need it without retying. And thirdly: for 9,799 CZK, you’re also paying for the XL size, which will be especially appreciated by taller and sturdier individuals for whom standard chairs are insufficient.

Key parameters explained in plain language

The backrest reclines from 90 to 165 degrees and adds another 15° when rocking, so you can not only sit but practically lie down in the chair. The body is supported by a metal construction with an aluminum base and a Class 4 gas lift; the manufacturer states a weight capacity of up to 200 kg. It is designed for users approximately 181–210 cm tall.

Be aware of one thing with this variant: Black Fabric means a fabric, textile cover, not artificial leather. Textile breathes better than leatherette, but according to reviews, hair tends to stick to it, and you might sweat on it in hot weather. The seat is filled with denser cold foam (65 kg/m³) tuned more for longevity than softness – which is precisely why some people describe it as firm. It also features magnetic 4D armrests and quiet 65mm casters.

Practical aspects: assembly, adjustment, material

Assembly is one of the most frequently praised aspects by users. Thanks to the modular MagClap system and clear pictorial instructions, one person can complete the assembly in about 20–30 minutes; the parts are numbered, and the packaging is often described as premium. However, there’s one practical catch: the box weighs around 36 kg and lacks proper handles, so carrying it, for example, upstairs, is a hassle, and it’s better to have two people.

In daily use, the strongest aspect is adjustability – the backrest recline in small increments, height, multi-directional magnetic armrests, and the built-in lumbar support. However, with the lumbar support, you need some time to get used to it and find the right position; some people praise it as the best feature of the chair, while others initially feel it as firmer pressure on their back.

What users say

On Alza, the chair has a rating of 4.6 out of 5 from 248 reviews, 89% of customers recommend it, and over 1,000 units have been sold. Most frequently, satisfaction is expressed with the construction, assembly, magnetic pillow, and the fact that the chair “will last.”

However, criticism focuses on a few specific points, and it’s fair to know them beforehand. The most common is the firm seat – some people find it comfortable (comparing it to a car seat), while for others, it’s uncomfortable after prolonged sitting. Creaking at the joint between the seat and backrest after months of use also repeatedly appears, which can sometimes be resolved by lubrication. And those who are taller than approximately 190 cm may, according to some, encounter a low maximum height and relatively high-set armrests. The magnetic armrests reportedly sometimes fall off when standing up.

When it doesn’t make sense

If you like soft seating, this chair will likely disappoint you – dense foam and a firmer seat are precisely the opposite philosophy. Similarly, if you are a significantly taller person over 190 cm and want to sit very high, be aware that even the XL version has a lower ceiling than you might expect, and without a longer gas lift, it might not be enough for you. And if you’re looking for a cheap chair for occasional sitting, paying 9,799 CZK for its construction and weight capacity is unnecessary – a significantly cheaper model will suffice.

Verdict: for whom the discount is worthwhile

The Anda Seat Kaiser Series 3 XL is a chair for years for someone who spends long hours at the computer and wants a sturdy construction with proper lumbar support. At 9,799 CZK with code ALZADNY30, which is 4,200 CZK cheaper and the lowest price since July, it’s a reasonable price for a piece that people repeatedly praise and return to even after years. Those who are taller or sturdier, prefer firm seating, and don’t mind a few days to adjust will make a good deal for 9,799 CZK. If you want a soft armchair, are over 190 cm tall, or only need occasional seating, opt for something else – and be aware that the seat is firm and the package is heavy.

Do you prefer firm seating “like in a sports car,” or do you prefer a soft armchair?
