I searched for many hours on the internet for the right driving simulator. When I came across the Playseat F1, I was impressed by the overall appearance of the product. My concern was the price was more than what I had planned on spending. But, as you can see by my 5 star rating in the price/quality category, that concern was alleviated once the product arrived and I could see and feel the quality in person. Definitely worth every penny.Overall Price / Quality Comfort Design Fun
Set up was extremely quick and simple. The instructions included were easy to follow, even for someone who is not mechanically-inclined. They even have a way to hide the wires of the steering wheel and pedals so the setup looks clean and professional.
Sitting in the chair for the first time just put me in the right frame of mind for playing racing games. I honestly felt like I was preparing for a real race. The seating position is surprisingly comfortable, and I've noticed I can play for hours without any discomfort or muscle and back fatigue. Even my lap times began dropping due to the realistic nature of this setup.
I highly recommend this to anyone thinking about a home racing simulator. Racing games are so much more realistic, exciting, and most importantly, fun when using the F1 Playseat. I am now addicted to playing simulator games, solely because of this seat! -

The seat was easy to assemble... good quality...Overall Price / Quality Comfort Design Fun
My son is just starting to use it... enjoying the experience! -

The head rest should be a lot more softer and lean back a little for more confort. For the rest i love the concept and style a high rise platform should also be available to it, it is a little low to the ground and hard to get out of it.Overall Price / Quality Comfort Design Fun

I had been eyeing this since 2020 March Covid lockdown but playseat store limited their global deliveries. 25 days ago I tried again contacting PS team. Since my country is in a semi lockdown and for daily distant commuter like us, this f1 seat is the most likely alternative for a comfy need for speed at home! And this time, I was prepared to pay a premium for the multiple shipment route/layover and duties/taxes plus any COVID possible delays leveraging on myUSdotcom (separate dealing). Nick from PS team was super helpful to advice on the difference in duties incurred for US vs UK and sorting the change in delivery addresses. Thumbs up for the examplary customer service! In 20 days, 2 well packed boxes arrived at my doorstep.Overall Price / Quality Comfort Design Fun
I agree with all other reviewers - the assembly time took us roughly an hour or so. But what I like about this F1 PS is the fact that in comparison to other racing sim seats, the metal frames are designed in the way of preventing you from accidentally hitting your precious toes upon climbing to be seated. Do be mindful of excited kids who want to shift the pedal plate themselves and possibly getting their fingers pinched. Because the shifting is made so easy that one should still supervise for safety.
Aesthetic-wise, the design makes the sim setup looks clean and tidy especially the white version. Since the concept is clean and tidy, this seat will benefit by having a dedicated hidden cable routing or clamps at the inner part. One can still tidy up the routing using some cable tie wrap. If there is one thing I would improve or customise would be the synthetic leather cushion design - with added lumbar support for additional comfort, cross stitching design and booster seat for kids/shorter mid adults.
We have mounted thrustmaster T300RSGT - the force feedback was already strong enough to shake the steering wheel off its mounting. It would be good to hear mounting experiences with Fanatec.
Would I still buy it taking account all of the above? Definitely yes. For now, I see this as one of the top of the range f1 simracing seats (if not - the top). Some of the above can easily be self modified if I want put an effort to those. If PS team is planning to do these upgrades, I would be one of the first to purchase that! -

I've been wanting a Playseat Formula for some time, but always heard mixed reviews. Once they released the PRO version with the new locking mechanism for stability I was happy to purchase. I play with a CSL elite. base and Load Cell pedals and have not had any issues concerning flex or parts moving. One thing to note was when I was putting the seat together, I had to really force some screws in, as the alignment was sometimes just slightly off. Otherwise I'm very happy with my purchase.Overall Price / Quality Comfort Design Fun -

Sehr bequemer Rennsitz und das Fahrgefühl ist so als würde man in einem echten Formel 1 Auto Sitzen. Die Farbkombination weiß und schwarz sieht mega gut aus.Overall Price / Quality Comfort Design Fun
Lieferung war sehr schnell, Verpackung sehr gut und jedes Teil wurde gut vor Transportschäden geschützt. Nur beim zusammenbauen mussten manche Teile mit viel Kraft zurecht gebogen werden. Aufbau zu zweit wäre eher vom Vorteil. Ich gebe trotzdem für den Gesamteindruck die volle Punktzahl.

Delivery:Overall Price / Quality Comfort Design Fun
The delivery time has unfortunately not corresponded to the information on the homepage (24-48 hours), but has taken more than twice the time, namely almost 5 working days. The statement of the support team has been limited to the words: "Please be patient".
Assembly:
The assembly is easily explained and with the supplied tools also easy to perform. Someone who is somewhat handy can assemble the seat ready for use within 30-60 minutes.
Adjustments (size):
I am 195cm (6'5") tall and have had no problems adjusting the seat to my height. There is even room for improvement for people who are taller. My best friend is 170cm (5'7") and we were able to adjust the seat for him easily too. The easy-to-adjust clamps on the track are easy to loosen and then hold very tightly again.
Design: The design convinced me from the beginning and looks simply elegant in the room. The white version provides the perfect contrast to the black upholstery in my eyes.
Comfort:
The comfort of the seat takes some getting used to. When used with a DD1 from Fanatec, one is already very pressed into the seat and thus has some strain on the back muscles. But after a few days I have to say that the muscles get used to it and after a break you are free of pain again very quickly.
Fun:
The fun with this seat is just great. Especially for the formula 1 simulation an absolute highlight.
Price:
I don't know the material and development costs of the seat of course, but the price of 1000€ is very deterring at first sight. I too spent several weeks wondering if it was worth it price wise. After the first few hours of racing, I have to say that I really enjoy the seat. Whether this justifies this price, of course, everyone has to answer for himself.
Other:
There is currently no keyboard holder for this seat, which would be a sher useful accessory.
The gap between the centre of the seat and the floor is large enough for a robot to get through underneath and thus do its job. It’s a nice side effect. -
PTRL_Liz - Portugal
Really great design with easy positioning system. Gives you the perfect head rest for long run races. It would just be nice to, at least, have a base plate or something. It’s a bit less torsional resistant then what I’ve expected, so I had the playseat fixed into a wood plate.Overall Price / Quality Comfort Design Fun -
Joe - United Kingdom
It took a long time and lots of comparing to other racing setups before choosing the playseat F1. So glad I did because it is absolutely ideal for me lots of fun,great position for F1 racing and also very comfortable.Overall Price / Quality Comfort Design Fun -
Jacob - Canada
I absolutely love this cockpit. I have friends asking to come over so they can play with it. Even my NASCAR friends. Only problem for me is the curvature of the seatback. It is far too rounded for me as I like to sit with proper posture. I put and a thin pillow behind my back to straighten out my back and I am good to play for hours at a time. It is super sturdy and has no rattle or shaking when playing with aggressive force feedback.Overall Price / Quality Comfort Design Fun -
Treed111 - United States
Rarely do I buy something online that is nicer than I expected, but this seat most certainly is NICE. All metal construction...extremely sturdy. Could not be happier. 2 day shipping to Texas. Trust me when I say that you can't go wrong with this seat.Overall Price / Quality Comfort Design Fun

After staring at this chair for several months intimidated by the price I finally decided to get it after my cheap homemade rig finally broke. I was ready to face disappointment, but I never encountered any of it. The kit fit together perfectly and took me less than 40 minutes from unboxing to racing. The center pillar is perfect for masking wires coming to and from my wheelbase that I used to stumble over in my old rig. Overall my only regret with this is that I didn't get the monitor stand with it.Overall Price / Quality Comfort Design Fun -
Jman-87 - United States
I've recently graduated from karts to cars (F4 specifically) and needed something much better positioned. This setup is perfect. You can see the European quality immediately upon unpacking, and all the way thru assembly. I am 100% satisfied with this purchase and would recommend the setup to anyone looking for a great Sim seat!Overall Price / Quality Comfort Design Fun -

My wife and I searched for 2 days online for a racing simulator seat until we spotted this one. While it was out of our initial budget, it was well worth the additional cost. Very comfortable, looks amazing, and easy to adjust. The build quality is top notch and this will last for quite some time. It was very basic to put together and light enough to move around when necessary. The driving position is perfect for our entertainment room. I highly recommend anyone that is looking for racing seat to purchase this one. I just wish that I could have purchased a version with the Petronas/Mercedes F1 team colors and logo.Overall Price / Quality Comfort Design Fun -

Mike - Austria
The Playseat F1 is simply amazing. I was considering to buy one since years, not sure if I would have fun with it in the long run and if I have enough place at home.Overall Price / Quality Comfort Design Fun
But I can definitely recommend this product in both terms. The comfortable feeling while racing is incredible. Beside its great and valuable design it is also very stable. The total setup took me around 1-2 hours and was not too difficult. The wiring is easy to hide which was also very important for me.
The shipping took 2 days as advertised and altough it is no cheap seat, I absolutely don't regret the deal. I highly recommend it to everyone who is into racing games. -
Stephen - United Kingdom
After an age considering this chair I finally took the plunge and regret not buying it sooner. Games are so much more involving and I intend to buy the motion kit very soon! If you're sat on the fence, or even considering a competitor's product, get this bought!Overall Price / Quality Comfort Design Fun -
