The big sell of the Playseat Challenge is it is effectively a full cockpit that can be folded up to a size smaller than that of most wheel stands, which don’t provide the seat part at all. Whilst the design of it makes it easier to get into the seat, the issue stems from the same strengths of foldability and compactness as the Challenge. While not as portable as the F-GT Lite, you can fold the seat and adjust the mounts to reduce the size and make it easier to keep out of the way. The NEW Actifit Playseat® Challenge is very comfortable, and highly adjustable, to ensure the most fun racing experience at home! Not only that, but an uncomfortable chair can be detrimental to your health if it doesn’t support proper posture.

The black clamps that fit around the Challenge’s tubes and onto the steering wheel plate, are made of 3D printed Recycled plastic. It is also massively adjustable, with a telescopic design that means that you can adjust the distances of the wheelstand and pedal plate from the seat without any excess metal sticking out. It won’t cut it for direct drive wheels, much like most of the options on this list, but for those seeking a more durable alternative to the Playseat Challenge, this is a strong contender. This all-in-one rig comes with a stick shifter mount included in the package, as well as the steering wheel and pedal mounts. The Playseat was absolutely overburden with the CSL LC pedals, even with the Raceroom seat I could experience an unfavorable amount of flex at the pedal plate.It's supremely strong and stable, keeping flex to a minimum even with the most powerful direct-drive wheels, and it's backed by a five-year warranty for peace of mind. Breathable ActiFit™️ material and its body-conforming design and adjustable rigidity offers superior support and thermal management, allowing racers to stay comfortable and cool. Pro: Will this be sufficient for DD 1/2 or would it just be suboptimal to pay large money for such base when combined with this seat? It’s built to offer an immersive racing experience and is compatible with major sim racing hardware brands, and it’s a comfortable choice too.

The Playseat Challenge X - Logitech G Edition puts you right in the driver's seat to experience the thrill of racing. There is no wobble at all in the entire construction of the solid and sturdy framework as a result of the premium materials used in its construction. There’s no way to attach a dedicated shifter or handbrake, but shifter mount mods are readily available at the time of review. The whole thing takes about 10 minutes and mostly involves strapping the fabric chair to the frame with a series of fairly serious velcro straps.
