If you're going to get into gaming properly, you'll need more than just a console, PC, or peripherals. You're going to need somewhere for it to land, and GamingTrend has done a lot of testing when it comes to chairs, desks, and more. Take a look below at our choices for the kinds of furniture that will best suit you as you build out your gaming corner, room, or space this holiday season.
Secretlab TITAN Evo gaming chair
David Burdette said, "Secretlab is not simply a label of expense; it’s a label of excellence. The TITAN Evo gaming chair is one-of-a-kind, offering a unique seat that, while taking some time to adjust to, is backed by science to improve your gaming (and sitting) experience. It brings with it a wealth of amenities, along with the backing of Secretlab to ensure your investment is safe with them. You could spend less, but why not get the best?"

Secretlab SKINS
David Burdette said, "Secretlab wants you to get the most out of your purchase. As slick as the TITAN Evo base model can look, being able to add a custom design of your favorite franchise is a terrific bonus. With plenty of designs available and more coming, alongside an easy application and extra protection from accidents, this is a big win for TITAN Evo owners."

Vertagear PL4800 chair
Ron Burke said, "Unrivaled quality, excellent comfort, and a handful of brand new features are combined with last year’s HygennX tech to make for a chair that is built to last and will keep you comfortable for gaming, work, or anything in between."

FlexiSpot XRC5 Recliner
Mike Case said, "The FlexiSpot XRC5 Recliner brings a lot to the table with its oversized design, heat and massage features, and built-in swivel and rocking action. It's roomy enough to fit taller and bigger users comfortably, with cushioning that strikes the right balance between softness and support. The four massage zones and multiple modes add a nice touch, though the process to turn on heat without massage could be streamlined. Overall, the XRC5 is a solid recliner that offers comfort and functionality, perfect for both gaming and kicking back after a long day."

X-Chair X2 K-Sport Mesh Management office chair
Richard Allen said, "The X-Chair X2 K-Sport Mesh Management Office Chair is a great choice for both those who often participate in intense gaming sessions or spend countless hours sitting in front of a computer screen for work. The breathable mesh remains cool despite long durations of sitting, the well-constructed materials ensure that the chair is sturdy, the Dynamic Variable Lumbar support guarantees that your back is fully always supported and works well to alleviate pain that often stems from long sitting sessions, and the SciFloat Infinite Recline feature provides just enough movement to stave off the stiffness that comes from long periods of sitting. Toss in the ELEMAX system and you have a chair that is bound to please even the pickiest of officer workers and gamers."

FlexiSpot G7 gaming desk
Mark Julian said, "If you’re a gamer and in the market for a beefy desk with adjustable height, look no further. The E7 Pro has some nice wood top options but the G7 looks great in all black and the whole surface “mousepad” means you’ll never die from another mousepad mishap again."

FlexiSpot E7 Pro standing desk
Ron Burke said, "The FlexiSpot E7 Pro was something I didn’t know I needed. While the E7 was great, the Pro adds enough fresh additions and updates that it might as well have a brand new designation. Hopefully FlexiSpot starts selling some of the new accessories for retrofitting their older versions. While the previous models were impressive, this is the new bar. And now I’m gonna make that bar go up and down a few more times!"

Blacklyte Atlas Lite standing desk
David Flynn said, "The Blacklyte Atlas Lite Standing Desk is a great upgrade from a standard desk. While it lacks shelves and has some annoying power quirks, it’s sturdy and lets you clean up your cables nicely. It’s incredibly easy to operate and big enough to fit just about any setup on top."

Displate
We absolutely LOVE our Displate displays. Warhammer 40k, Star Wars, Dungeons & Dragons, Assassin's Creed: Shadows – frankly the sky's the limit – if you are into it, they probably have a plate for it. I have several around my house, with Textra versions right at arm height to encourage people to touch it. Now you can pick up several Displates on a fairly steep discount, so if you were thinking of grabbing some of these, now's the time. The sale escalates based on how many Displates you buy – see for yourself:

Lumary Smart Outdoor Neon Rope Lights
Ron Burke said, "If you're looking for a way to punch up the lighting on the outside of your house, and with a smart app that makes it all easy to manage and control, then I think I just found your answer. And if you’d rather not pay $1000 only to remove them at the end of the season to do it all over again next year, well, there’s that to consider as well. For my house, it’s installed and I get to celebrate all year long."
Lepro ZB1 AI String Lights
Richard Allen said, "Lepro has proven time and again that they are a cut above many other lighting brands by providing products that simply work as expected with minimal hassle. The ZB1 is no different and manages to stand out in an extremely crowded string light market by providing durable and individually controllable RGB bulbs, a great app, and good use of AI to create instant lighting schemes to match any mood or situation."

Linkind EP6 Smart Hexagon Panels and Linkind EL8 Smart Light Strip
Richard Allen said, "Despite a few minor inconveniences during set up, I can honestly say that the stress was well worth it as the EP6 looks absolutely stunning when in action. My EP6 has quickly become the focal point of my living room, outshining every other wall-based light I have yet used. The app is at once simple and expansive, allowing me to switch up my designs with a touch of a button or to create anything I can imagine via its intuitive AuraScape features. I wasn’t aware of Linkind before testing these products, but I will definitely keep my eye on them for future releases now."

Lepro O1 AI Floor Lamp
Richard Allen said, "Lepro and their AI lighting technology combine to create an impressive floor lamp, capable of basic daily lighting as well as any lighting scheme and pattern you can think of. Coupled with their impressive app, the Lepro O1 AI Floor Lamp is a fantastic addition to any room thanks to its stylish yet minimalist design and incredible customizability.

Lepro TB1 Smart Table Lamp
Richard Allen said, "This is the second product I’ve reviewed from Lepro, and they have definitely earned my recommendation to anybody looking for a quality lighting product which is reasonably priced and works exactly as advertised. The Lepro TB1 Smart Table Lamp is stylish, easy to assemble, and fits well into nearly any setting. Thanks to its superb app it is capable of essentially any color combination possible, making it a versatile light for any occasion, and well worth picking up.

Lepro AI Smart LED Table Light
Richard Allen said, "Lepro’s AI Smart LED Table Light is quite impressive, boasting 152 RGB+IC lights capable of thousands of colors and patterns. Both the lamp’s design and build quality are great, and the subtle use of AI to help find new lighting patterns is a fantastic feature which really helps showcase the light’s range. Top it all off with a well-designed app and you’ve got a lamp which manages to stand out amongst a crowded lighting market."
