 great for forza 2 June 28, 2008
this is a great product. very sturdy. works well with the 360 wireless wheel using the provided velcro. doesn't take up too much space when you're not using it. it wasn't very comfortable at first, but after adjusting it a bit, it's pretty comfy now. i sit in it even when i'm playing non-racing games. assembly isn't very difficult and it comes with all the needed tools.
Great Product June 27, 2008
Very comfortable and can take your gaming to the next level. The wheel mount is stable and secure with very little (if any) wobble. Everything is fully adjustable to suit your most comfortable position. I am about 6'2" and have no problems fitting into the seat and there is still length to spare in the foot pedal adjustment. If I may be a harsh critic, the only area which could see improvement is the incorporation of some lateral adjustability in the foot pedal rest. I use an Xbox 360 wheel and the pedals could be slightly more comfortable if they could be moved to the right. The central post supporting the wheel nearly interferes with your right leg when you reach for the brake. Overall, I am very satisfied and will use this product for years to come.
Very Cool! June 23, 2008
This thing works awesome and is built very well.
Nice and sturdy unlike the cheaper versions.
The price definitely reflects the overall quality.
It folds up nice and is very adjustable so it stores away pretty easy.
Playseats Evolution + Logitech Wheel + PS3 GT5 Prologue = Best Racing Ever!
 Poor Quality Control June 16, 2008
6 out of 9 found this review helpful
As a fan of racing sims, my Playseats classic/Logitech Driving Force Pro combo has seen a lot of use. So, when I wanted to upgrade, the obvious choice was a Playseats Evolution and Logitech G25 (a popular combo here, it seems). The Evolution seems to be designed for the G25 - everything fit together beautifully, with much less wobble than the classic, and Playseats helpfully includes bolts for the wheel and pedals to eliminate wobble there as well.
However, I can't put the seat together, because someone at the factory broke off a drill bit while threading one of the holes - then decided to leave it there. I now have a nicely powder-coated fragment of drill bit that can't be removed. The seat is nothing but a pile of parts until I figure out how to get a replacement post. There's no phone number in the box, and their website lists contact info in the Netherlands.
This seems like an improvement on its predecessor in every way - but thanks to poor quality control, I wouldn't know.
Great Addition to any Racing Platform June 14, 2008
I had this seat since 11.2007 and I can attest that it is what ever racing game needs no matter the platform.... PC, XBox360, or PS3. I have a G25 and the wheel bolts to the wheel deck perfectly. I also highly recommend the Shift mount, an additional $30US (I believe) which also receives the G25 shifter perfectly.
The seat is extremely comfortable; firm like it should be and over time has held its original shape. The seat enhances the immersion factor by placing you in the correct position as you would be if in an actual race car.
To even enhance the feel more, I've clamped my Butt Kicker shaker and two bass shakers wired to my sound system via powered amplifier. This playseat frame is stronger enough to support the shaking while providing a firm sturdy seat. Simply Awesome Immersion Factor!!!!
I could not enjoy my racing games w/o this fantastic very affordable seat!
Hope this helps anyone trying to make a decision.
