As much as we are all gamers, we aren’t the same size. Some are tall, others short, and others midsized.

In sports, all players aren’t given same-sized jerseys—each is given an outfit that fits them properly.

The same analogy applies to gaming chairs—you need the right gaming chair. Of major importance, you need a chair of the right height and weight.

To be comfortable when playing your favorite game, avoid buying a gaming chair that is too small as you will have to squeeze in it as you won’t be having enough leg space.

At the same time, avoid a chair that is too big as it won’t have a comfortable grip on you. A big chair also will have too much leg space that your legs will be dangling, lowering your chances of winning a game. You don’t want this, do you?

There are four height groups.

According to Healthline’s average height for men data, men fall into four main height groups:

Short men: These are men below the height of 5’2”, and they account for about 5% of all men.

Almost average height guys: These are those between the height of 5’2” and 5’10”. Most of those in this height category are girls and teenage boys.

Average height guys: The average height is between 5’10” and 6’2”. Over 50% of gamers are in this height group.

Tall men: Tall men are those above 6’2”, accounting for 5% of men.

Now that you know where you fall height-wise, let us find out the ideal chair you should go for.

Gaming chairs for short men

If you are under 5’2”, you must have realized it’s hard to find an ideal gaming chair that can accommodate you.

To have an easier time, go for kids’ gaming chairs. While these chairs are meant for little boys and girls, they will be perfect for you. You only need to find the right one.

To start you off, here are top-rated small gaming chairs you can look at.

Gaming chairs for almost average height guys and girls

If you fall in the average height category, you should go for a gaming chair with a total height of 42’ to 48’ and a maximum cap of 250-300 lbs.

Never go for a chair beyond these size dimensions, as it will be too big. Always ensure that the seat has adjustable seat height to adjust the seat to your desired height.
