Secretlab Omega SoftWeave Fabric (2020 Series) review Secretlab Omega is a comfortable gaming chair that looks like a snack By Rami Tabari 11 May 2020 TL;DR: While the build quality of parts and materials seems to be top-notch, the SecretLab Omega Softweave 2.0 was absolutely one of the worst seating experiences of my life due to rock-solid cushioning rivaling the resiliency of a block of tungsten, coupled with an extremely narrow and shallow seat base that never allowed me to find a comfortable sitting position. Not only does it look far less obnoxious, but the soft cloth-like texture is a lot nicer to sit in, sort of like a loveseat or recliner. Most complained about the rock hard seat and how they feel "scammed." The head pillow is amazing, with memory foam and cooling gel, it really does work (not paid by Secretlab, honestly). Posing as buyers. Really it's just a reminder to stretch for a few mins and get back. However still unsure. One actual issue I found is that one of the wheel holes under the base had a little flap of metal that I had to kinda push out, no biggie. And, in the year 2021, gaming chairs can be found just about everywhere. For reference, I am 5' 6'' and 130 lbs.
