Is it a robot? Is it a butterfly? No, it's a chair. Arguably, the best design goes unnoticed, but the X-Air Pro from AndaSeat refuses to sit without fanfare.
While AndaSeat does offer a selection of more straight-shot office chairs, the X-Air Pro is a decidedly more 'gamer inflected' offering with its hefty chunk of head-turning plastic partying in the back.
Though a tasteful all-over black version is also available, the celeste colourway of the unit I've reviewed proves just the right side of trashy for me.
The back frame case is apparently swappable too, though I'm not sure who has the space to store multiple, chunky back frames like this in different colours.
While the plastic back frame is, let us say, ostentatious, there's more to the X-Air Pro than the fact the back of the headrest looks a little bit like a Transformer.
