In some ways, the Kaiser 3E XL resembles its Pro model, the Anda Seat Kaiser 3 Pro. First reviewed in February 2025, I used to be impressed by the general construct high quality and the extent of element within the design. This newest iteration (I acquired the ash grey linen for evaluation) affords most of the identical fundamental design selections, which is to its credit score.
Assembly is what you’ll anticipate from a gaming chair, with the method taking about half-hour for a single individual. While the meeting is simple, I did battle to align the again of the chair with the seat, as even with slide-in guides, the threaded holes had been a bit troublesome to align. I famous an identical difficulty with the Kaiser 3 Pro when assembling that chair.
It’s not that the brackets received’t line up; it’s merely that when three of the bolts are set, the fourth one requires further power to maintain aligned lengthy sufficient to insert the ultimate bolt. It causes a little bit of frustration when putting in, however after just a few moments of fiddling, I managed to proceed the meeting. The relaxation was simple and took little or no time to place collectively.
As an XL chair, the 3E’s base cushion is loads vast, measuring 52x54cm with a snug 11cm thickness. This interprets into a snug seating expertise even for the taller and bigger avid gamers. The seat itself is comprised of a cold-cure foam, which is surprisingly springy whereas nonetheless sustaining a agency form, an iconic factor of gaming chairs. When in comparison with the few different gaming chairs within the workplace, I discover the 3E to be a softer chair to take a seat in.

This is to not say it isn’t supportive. On the opposite, the seat, particularly, because of its wider dimensions and aforementioned cold-cure foam, feels loads sturdy when sat on. This is additional bolstered by the heavy iron and aluminum wheelbase, which offers a sturdy base for the chair and, when assembled, ensures that the chair feels strong.

That being mentioned, the Kasier 3E does nonetheless supply the spectacular 155° recline and 15° rocking tilt, which I’ve completely loved within the Kasier 3 Pro. It’s snug to make use of and permits for these fast energy naps throughout late-night gaming or work periods. The controls for every system are situated on the underside of the seat and make the most of a paddle system to function. It’s simple and practical.
Another notable distinction is that whereas the Kaiser 3E XL helps the magnetic head pillow, a standout function of the three Pro, it doesn’t truly include one. As such, you’ll have to shell out a further $69.99 for it. While not essential, it does appear odd to take away a component that’s pretty customary on gaming chairs on this worth vary, particularly when the magnetic pillow design is such a sensible and standout innovation.
