Amazon.com Product Description
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.

4 out of 5 stars Definitely recommend   November 10, 2008
Used with a Logitech Force GT wheel and pedals, this is an amazing place to play GT5 Prologue.

The wheel clamps perfectly to the top plate, and I routed the cables down the support tube (with a dremeled slot in the end cap for the cables). The pedals were stuck down with the included velcro and cable ties.

There is plenty of adjustment room for different size drivers (4 foot tall to 6 feet tall), and its comfortable too. I found myself watching a movie in it.

It's heavy (50lbs), which makes for a solid perch, but moving it out of the living room is a chore, so prepare to decorate the room around it.

The installation instructions are not that great, but a reasonably able person can put it together in a few minutes.



4 out of 5 stars Fantastic Design and Easy to shift around   September 7, 2008
I use it for both my PC and PS3 in my Entertainment room and shift between them easily. Seats can be bent down for storage. I use it with a G25 and hoped that I would Find a Shifter extension but couldn't find it here in Amazon. It should have come with the product. Overall I am satisfied.


5 out of 5 stars Playseat EVOLUTION   August 18, 2008

I use the Playseat EVO with my PS3-Logitech Gran Turismo wheel. I play games such as GRiD, DiRT, GT5 Prologue, Need for Speed Pro Street and Initial D (Japanese Import) with much ease. Very happy with the quality and clean up. My dog marked it as his on day two and it cleaned up a damp soapy rag! I picked the black seat and it still looks like it did when I bought it! Good Buy.


5 out of 5 stars If you like driving you'll love this chair   July 24, 2008
If you like driving you'll love this chair. Very sturdy, rugged, and durable. The vinal covering is easy to clean. I have the original Playseat and love the construction of this one a lot more. I prefer the cloth seats but that is more personnal then comfort.


4 out of 5 stars This thing is fun!   July 3, 2008
Bought this after buying the Logitech G25 wheel. The shift plate wasn't available so I had to order that from another website. The center post for the wheel gets a little annoying when working the pedals but otherwise a fun product. *NOTE* I also use this for my Saitek X52 and the shift plate works great for the throttle (you can switch the sides the plate is mounted quickly and easily)
