With its completely renewed design and double-stitched vinyl cover, the black Playseats Evolution gaming seat puts you smack dab in the middle of your favorite racing game. The seat works with almost all racing peripherals on the market and every game console, including the Xbox 360, GameCube, PlayStation2, PCs, and more. More importantly, the chair is notably comfortable while delivering the most realistic racing simulation around.
Details include a reinforced steel tubular construction that adds stability and eliminates excess wobble, a non-flammable seat material, and an easy-to-assemble design. Just install a game steering wheel, such as the latest Logitech model, on the middle pole and attach a couple of pedals along the bottom (all sold separately). The setup is also easily adaptable, with multiple adjustment knobs letting you move the wheel and pedals closer or farther, depending on your height. Appropriate for ages 8 and older, the Evolution seat is the perfect accessory for gamers who want to boost their lap times in style.

I received the seat shipped via ground when I paid for 2 day shipping. Long story but Amazon did not help me out in this matter. When I received the product, many of the pieces where scratch badly. Also Screws did not fit like they where suppose to in the support brackets. I have the xbox 360 wheel which by the way does not fit on the post at all. For the amount of money I spent on this seat, it would have been better well spent on something else.

As a fan of racing sims, my Playseats classic/Logitech Driving Force Pro combo has seen a lot of use. So, when I wanted to upgrade, the obvious choice was a Playseats Evolution and Logitech G25 (a popular combo here, it seems). The Evolution seems to be designed for the G25 – everything fit together beautifully, with much less wobble than the classic, and Playseats helpfully includes bolts for the wheel and pedals to eliminate wobble there as well.
However, I can’t put the seat together, because someone at the factory broke off a drill bit while threading one of the holes – then decided to leave it there. I now have a nicely powder-coated fragment of drill bit that can’t be removed. The seat is nothing but a pile of parts until I figure out how to get a replacement post. There’s no phone number in the box, and their website lists contact info in the Netherlands.
This seems like an improvement on its predecessor in every way – but thanks to poor quality control, I wouldn’t know.

This is a really well designed and well built seat. Because the adjustments were so well thought out, it will accomodate kids just as well as 6′ tall adults such as myself. The pricing is great as well.

This chair is great to play Forza 2 for the Xbox 360 and among other racing games the chair is confortable and adjusts to your personal size, easy to put together and i suggest that you get the microsoft wheel adapter for it to put your wheel on tight unless you dont mind velcro or some custom installation.
