Gamer Survey

As part of our ongoing customer research, we recently asked 200 gamers to tell us what they look for when buying a gamer chair. We thought we’d publish the results on our new blog as we found them quite interesting.

Motivating Factors

We asked 200 gamers to choose the most important aspect of a gamer chair, with the options available limited to Price (i.e. cheap), Manufacturer/Brand, Functionality (speakers, vibrator packs etc), style or quality.

Interestingly (especially in the current climate) only 12% of respondents selected price as the motivating factor. Of those 12%, the average price they expected to pay was £42.

Another 12% of respondents selected style as the motivating factor, with the average price they’d expect to pay coming in at £67.

Just 6% of respondants selected Manufacturer/Brand as the reason they would buy a product, with the average price they’d want to pay a lowly £41. This suggests no single brand has captured the market yet (good news!) and that current popular brands are viewed as budget brands.

34% of respondents cited functionality as the main reason to select a product. This group of gamers are also prepared to pay for the extras with the average price they would consider fair coming in at £110.

And last but not least, 36% of gamers chose quality as the main reason for selecting a product, with £84 the average price they would pay.

So, what group would you fall under? Let us know by commenting below.
