A good chair is important and over the years I’ve learned that not all chairs are made equal. I’ve bought inexpensive chairs and I’ve bought pricey ones and none of them lasted more than a little over a year for me so a good chair is hard to find. Up for review today I’ve got what is, in my opinion, one of the best gaming and office chairs on the market, the EWin Knight Series. The Knight Series is the newest of EWins line of gaming chairs and it’s worthy to bear the EWin name as it’s very comfortable, sturdy and well made and easy to assemble. The Knight Series of chairs features the addition of a third pillow for even more comfort for those long gaming sessions or work days. Read on to learn more…

The Review
I’ve got a couple videos to start this off with, the first one is the unboxing video so you can see all the parts and everything that’s included and how well it’s packaged:
The second video is something new, I recorded myself actually assembling the EWin Knight Series Gaming Chair. I did this because I wanted to show just how easy it is to do and just how fast it is, just over 10 minutes in total really. I’ve assembled two of these chairs already so my time might be quicker than someone who never made one, but it shouldn’t take much longer really. You can watch the whole thing if you want or skip through, but you can see it’s easy to assemble, the instructions are easy to follow and all the parts and even extras and tools are included for you.
The chair ships in a sturdy and very large box and it’s heavy, Fedex tracking said the box weighed in at 56lbs. Everything is wrapped in plastic or bubble wrap, depending on the part, for protection and it’s layered with cardboard between for even more protection. The box is taped closed but it also has plastic straps as well.
Inside of the box you’ll find another smaller box with all the parts and accessories inside of it. You’ll find the casters, assorted plastic parts, mounts, pneumatic tube, tools, extra screws and nuts along with white cloth gloves and of course the instructions.
Everything is wrapped and protected during shipping and it arrives in pristine condition. The Knight Series chair I got for review is white and black in color but you can also get red/black, blue/black or yellow/black colors. The style of the chair makes it really look like a chair for gaming for sure.
The last two Ewin chairs I got came with two pillows but Ewin has added a third at the top, a large pillow for your head that covers the whole head rest section. It attaches with elastic straps and plastic clips so you can move it or remove it easily. I’ll be honest I’m not quite sure about the new big pillow, it’s ok when you’re leaning back far and relaxed but when the chair is upright it’s not quite comfortable to have that large pillow there.
The other two pillows are the same, one for your back and one for your head. There is a set of elastic straps that go through the chair and up around the back, these are fastened with plastic clips. The two pillows have elastic straps and plastic clips on them as well, the pillows attach to the main straps on the chair and can be slid up and down the chair for your comfort.
The Knight series chair is quality made, no excess material, even thick stitching all around. The covering of the chair is made of a synthetic leather material which is durable and it looks nice, underneath is triple density foam and a solid steel frame for support. The armrests are nice and large and what Ewin calls 2D, they slide up and down for comfort and lock into place, there’s a button on the side you push to unlock and move them.
The chair itself is well made and sturdy and it comes with a very solid and sturdy metal five star base which it and the casters attach to.
Assembly is very easy and quick, it took me just over ten minutes to get it all assembled and ready to use, I’d say that’s fast. The instructions are easy to follow with text and pictures of exactly what to do. Some of the screws are already in place for you, just remove them, attach the part, put the screws back in so there’s no need to try and figure out which screw goes where, I like that system as it makes things quick and easy.
The Ewin Knight Series chair was actually an early Christmas present for my 13 year old son Vinnie and he just loves it. I had him pose with it for a holiday themed picture for the review.
Since it’s holidays here’s a few pictures of the Knight and Champion series chairs a little decorated and ready for Christmas:
For the last picture of this review I wanted to show you all three of my Ewin Hero Series which I reviewed back in May 2017, the chair is still in great condition except for some slight damage our kitten did to it, some claw holes as he likes to climb it and for some reason he chewed on the corners of the pillows. The cat damage didn’t have anything to do with the chair quality itself of course, the chair is fine, it still works great and it’s just as comfortable as the first day I sat in it. The all black chair is my personal chair, it’s the Champion Series which I reviewed in December 2017, I’ve used it everyday since, it’s excellent and very comfortable still, no issues with it at all.
Conclusion
I’ve had plenty of chairs over the years, I was averaging having to buy a new one every year really as they just didn’t last and lost their comfort after a time, but this hasn’t happened with the EWin chairs I’ve owned, they’re still comfortable and like new ever after more than a year of using everyday. The Knight Series of chairs is EWin’s newest chairs so I can’t attest to their longevity right now but I’m fairly certain that it will last just as long, if not longer than the other EWin chairs I own as it’s the same quality material and sturdy build.
The chair is made from PU or synthetic leather and it looks very nice, this material is durable and easy to clean. The pattern is subtle but stylish, it’s mostly black with what I would call white accents.
Assembly is quick and easy, it took me just over ten minutes to assemble it thanks to the easy instructions and the fact that some of the screws or bolts are already in place for you so you don’t have to figure it out for yourself, it just makes things easier really.
New this year is a third pillow for your head to rest on and I’m not sure about it just yet as it’s a bit big, I think it could be because I’m not accustomed to it yet. All three pillows though are soft and comfortable, at first I wasn’t sure about them but now I can’t sit in the chair without them.
The chair is very comfortable thanks to its adjustability, you can sit straight up or incline almost flat and then there’s every angle in between as well. I use mine for work and play, have the chair up and then recline it to sit back and relax and watch a movie.
The casters move easily and quietly, they move just as smooth on carpet as they do on bare floors or a mat.
All in all the Knight Series is worthy of bearing the name Ewin Racing for sure, it’s an excellent quality and comfortable chair.
I can highly recommend the EWin Knight Series gaming chair or any EWin chair actually, it’s just a truly great chair that’s comfortable and will last a long time surely.
