About this deal

While they are also an aesthetic feature, the extended sections, on either side of the desk, are a godsend if you like your gaming setup to support your body in all the right places. You can rest your elbows on your chair arms and bring your mouse mat and mouse closer to the end of the chair's armrests, extending that support across the full length of your forearm. However, the gas lift is a little weak, meaning you need to take your entire weight off the seat before it will rise. Such gas lifts can lose their power over time too (we’re talking years here), and this isn't a great starting point. To be frank, this desk is overpriced. It can hold a decent amount of weight, and the RGB LED lighting is fun, but you can easily find another desk of the same basic shape, size, and weight capacity for much cheaper. Still, it is a very sturdy desk and looks great, so at least you wouldn't be disappointed with the functionality. The pad tops are made of very high density foam, for just a little bit of “give”, and the kinds of adjustment here are what you’ll find on some of the most expensive office chairs. Ergonomic dense foam padding, super soft DuraXtra leatherette and adjustable built-in lumbar support make sure you're comfy and ready to focus during intense gaming sessions.

This is not something And a Seat has forgotten to put in, though. This higher grade of adjustability requires a more complicated, no doubt more expensive, base. Move the magnetic arm rests in 4 different directions to get your wrists and elbows just right - you can even remove them completely The chair is coated with hard-wearing PVC leather which makes it resistant to scratching and spillage, and as such would make this a great option for kids.

Black Friday Special

The chair comes with either a PVC leather finish like you’ll find on many gaming chairs, or a linen fabric finish that’s quite comfortable. It’s liable to get dirtier easier, but the heathered Ash Gray of the model I tested hides blemishes well. These changes can be made by pushing a button on the inside of each rest. You can also recline the AndaSeat Spider-Man chair between 90°-160° safely with the knowledge that your weight will be supported, making this suitable for anyone that needs to rest at their desk.

It’s impressive what a difference a few small changes to design can make. The biggest improvement for use has to be in the seatbase. The absence of metal bolsters completely erased the little nagging sensation that could turn into a sore spot at the sides of my legs after extensive hours in other gaming seats, including AndaSeat’s own. In the Kaiser 3, I can work and play for hours on end without getting any tender spots like this in my legs. Battle your enemies, not your chair - the MagClap assembly system means building your chair only takes a matter of minutes

Dark Demon? That’s right, it’s an all-black gaming chair

It should be noted that this desk could be on the heavier side for some, and I would generally advise a two-person assembly to avoid any incidents or accidents when flipping the desk over or holding certain parts of it up while screwing down parts onto it. In total, the AndaSeat Mask 2 weighs around 27kgs / 59lbs in this state, so it's worth being careful and getting help if it's available. If you stream, or have other ephemera on your desk that can't go anywhere else when gaming, consider a larger AndaSeat desk. The AndaSeat Eagle 2 gaming desk is a good idea for more expansive gaming rigs, as it is 55 inches wide compared to the Mask 2's 47 inches. If you're someone that relies upon detailed diagrams and clear instructions then this desk may not be for you. Despite this, while the guidance left a lot to be desired, the components are all numbered (both in the pictures and on the bags themselves) so it isn't too mentally taxing to put two and two together. We are fans of gaming chairs that recline an ostentatious amount. The Anda Seat Dark Demon can go from dead upright to 160-degree recline, so you’re almost lying flat. Bliss.

The Mask 2 gaming desk is good but not great. Much like with AndaSeat's T-Compact gaming chair, the company has delivered a competent product that fulfills its base promises to consumers but does so at a cost that's too high for what's being presented. The fundamentals are all here, and the item is solid — now it's time for AndaSeat to iterate and present something truly outstanding. The armrests are 4D, meaning that you can adjust their height, position, and rotation. This level of customization is intended to adapt the chair to its environment and aid in preventing wrist discomfort. With a large seat that’s 20.2x 19.6 inches and an XL seat that’s 20.6 x 22.4 inches, the Kaiser provides spacious seating at either size, making it a viable big-and-tall gaming chair option. Both models feature a heavy-duty Class-4 gas lift to hold up plenty of weight, though the large is only recommended for weights up to 260 pounds while the XL can support up to 395 pounds. This is in line with the Titan Evo 2022, though a far cry from the E-Win Flash XL’s 550-pound limit. AndaSeat Kaiser 3 – Assembly Or at least, it would be a great option for kids if it were a tad smaller. The only real complaint we had about the chair is that the accompanying memory foam head pillow is unusable for anyone under a certain height. In the instruction manual, the pillow is shown to hook through the section of the chair occupied by the solid white plastic eyes on the Anda Seat Spider-Man.The Anda Seat Dark Demon has 4D arms that are, as far as we can tell, almost identical to those of the more expensive Fnatic Edition.

The tabletop is adorned in a carbon fiber wrap around which not only looks great but provides a non-slip surface for my monitor, mouse mat, keyboard, and other peripherals which was a nice change of pace from the varnished wood and tempered glass I've used in the past. Thanks to the cup holder and headset hooks, you can free up a lot of space on top of your desk, meaning a clutter-free experience (or more room to place other gaming devices). This makes the desk functional in a smaller setting and for a less expansive gaming setup. Looks aside, it's a fairly straightforward affair that you would expect from a computer desk. There's an emphasis on practicality above everything else; two holes for running cables through sit on either side exactly where you would need them. In terms of what it's like to use, however, I found that I had more than enough space for a large Razer keyboard (complete with a wrist rest) as well as a mega-sized RGB mouse mat with stereo speakers on either side of my monitor. I never felt cramped or boxed in, and could have had a multi-monitor setup, and even my Razer Blade laptop ready for use as well.
