Comparison GamePro RS400B vs GamePro RS115

The maximum weight that the chair is guaranteed to support during regular use — in other words, the maximum weight of the seated person, allowing continuous use of the product in normal mode without the fear of unexpected breakage. Note that many models can handle short-term weight excess without issues; however, overloading the structure (especially doing so constantly) is not advisable in any case: unforeseen loads significantly increase its wear, and breakage may occur at the most unexpected moment.

The recommended height range helps to understand which users the cockpit geometry is designed for. It shows within which limits you can comfortably set the seat, pedals, and steering base without excessively stretched legs, bent knees, or awkward hand positions.

Unlike maximum weight, this parameter is related not to durability but to ergonomics and adjustment range. For example, a model with a range of 120–210 cm can be suitable for both a teenager and an adult user, whereas a narrower range should be checked before purchase, especially for taller individuals.

A monitor mount makes the cockpit a more independent system, where the screen is installed on the same frame or a separate related stand. This helps to create a dedicated gaming space without a desk and position the screen closer to the line of sight.

The seat tilt adjustment allows you to change the angle of the chair in the cockpit to tailor the seating to the user's height, type of simulator, and personal preferences. This allows you to sit more upright for GT, Rally, and regular cars, or lean further back for a more sporty, formula-like seating position.

This adjustment affects not only comfort but also the position of the hands relative to the steering wheel and the feet relative to the pedals. For example, during long races, a comfortable seat angle helps reduce back fatigue and maintain a stable seating position more accurately.

Seat depth adjustment allows changing the distance between the chair and the pedal unit, adapting the cockpit to the height and leg length of the user. Essentially, the seat can be moved closer or farther away, ensuring the pedals are pressed confidently without excessively extended legs or too much bend in the knees. This adjustment is especially important if the cockpit is used by multiple people or the model is designed for a wide range of heights.

The material of the seat in the cockpit affects the feel of sitting, seat maintenance, and comfort during long races. For sim racing, breathability, abrasion resistance, and how much the surface heats up or becomes slippery during active play are particularly important.

— Fabric. Fabric upholstery allows for better airflow and heats up less during prolonged sitting. It's a good option for long races, especially if the room is warm or the user is actively working with the wheel and pedals.
Compared to faux leather, fabric is less slippery and more pleasant in the heat, but it's more difficult to clean from stains and dust. For instance, such a chair is convenient for regular home sim racing, where comfort is more important than an impressive appearance.

— Faux leather. Artificial leather gives the seat a more automotive and "premium" appearance and can be easily cleaned with a damp cloth. This upholstery is practical if the cockpit is in a room and needs to look neat even with infrequent maintenance.
Unlike fabric, faux leather offers less breathability and can heat up more or stick to the skin in summer. For example, it's suitable for short gaming sessions and easy cleaning, but for long races, fabric is often more comfortable.

The foldable design allows for reducing the size of the cockpit after playing, making it easier to store in a corner, closet, or move to another room. Typically, the frame, steering column, pedal set, or seat can be folded, making this format convenient for homes without a dedicated sim racing area.
