Are gaming chairs that comfortable?

I bought one of these at the start of lockdown last year for home working and haven't regretted it:

It is the best chair I've ever say on for 8+ hours a day home working, I'll be sad to be back in the office on office chairs.

Perfect for me as a 1.9m tall and 100kg weight.

The most important thing is comfort; if the chair is not comfortable then it will be very difficult for you as well as those around you to enjoy themselves. Gaming chairs are designed with ergonomic features such as breathable backs and lumbar support. These chairs can help relieve some of the pressure from your back and neck while sitting in front of a computer all day long, which can lead to tiredness or even pain.

I've found with mine that the headrest bothers me. Gaming chairs force you to sit up straight but honestly I just want to snuggle up. That could be because I use controller rather than keyboard and mouse though. For every day use my chair is just annoying. I'm contemplating getting an office chair instead.

In my opinion, the gaming chair is very comfortable, I bought one two years ago and I am satisfied with it.

I had an Andaseat for a while, but tbh like a lot of other people have said, you'd probs be better off getting a decent office chair instead for a more affordable price. There's no real benefit to spending the extra money, unless you like garish colours/logos.

You can use any chair but stand up after 1-2 hours.

Some gaming chairs are more comfortable than others, but in general they tend to be more comfortable than traditional office chairs because they often have more padding and a reclining feature. That said, not all gaming chairs are created equal, so it's important to do your research before buying one. As for me, I bought such a chair a long time ago and never regretted it. It is incredibly comfortable for me to work while sitting on it. I can spend 12 hours in the chair and feel good. My back is completely healthy.
