Officeworks are clearing stock on old gaming chairs to make room for new model of chairs. It seems like they have pulled most of the stock off their website but you can still find them in store. At this price point it may be worth considering over other chairs but comfort on them seem to vary so it may be wise to head in-store and see if you can try them out. Seems like you can’t click and collect them so you have to go into store to purchase them.
They aren’t the best of quality of chairs, reviews seem to suggest that the padding flattens quite quickly, the mesh frays easily (on the Typhoon Pro), the padding deteriorates with moderate use but YMMV.

You may have to call your nearest Officeworks to double check if they have stock before going in. The Officeworks stock checking website seems to be accurate as of 28/03 at 8:30PM as this was Northmead’s stock of the Typhoon Gaming, Typhoon Pro and Typhoon Prime.
If you are interested, the chairs replacing these are the Typhoon Raid, Typhoon Pro 2 and Typhoon Prime gaming chairs. The Typhoon Raid seems to be cloth instead of leather whereas the Typhoon Pro 2 and Prime seem to be just refreshes on the models.
First post so please let me know what I missed!
Which one did you buy?
