Get a gaming chair for practically nothing with these crazy Staples deals

Building an awesome battle station is not just about having a great desk or gaming rig. It’s also about having a comfortable place to sit. So, if you have everything else set up, it’s time to think about some worthy seating. Fortunately, there are a ton of gaming chair deals out there, if you know where to look. The best ones provide support for your lower back, arms, and neck, so you can stay focused on the action.

Staples is offering crazy deals on the Emerge Bonded Leather Gaming Chairs. The Emerge Vortex in black and green is $130, which is $100 off the full price. The Emerge Vartan in red and black is $170, which is also $100 off. Both come with free delivery or one-hour pickup at a nearby store. Also, they look sick!

It doesn’t matter if you’re gaming for several hours or just a few minutes — you’ll want to be comfortable while you do it. The Emerge Vortex Bonded Leather Gaming Chair is comfortable, adjustable, and supportive.

It has built-in armrests, which flip up when you don’t need them. Lumbar support at the rear keeps your lower back protected and your posture upright. The back is tall enough to give you a place to rest your head. Never underestimate the power of a headrest, especially during long gaming sessions!

It’s on wheels and supports up to 275 pounds. There are also height, tilt tension, and tilt lock adjustments so you can customize where you’re seated in relation to the monitor and desk.

It comes in black and bright green, with color contrast stitching that’s attractive but not overdone.

The distance from the floor to seat is about 17.8 inches to 21.6 inches, while the overall dimensions are 45.9 inches to 49.7 inches tall, 28.4 inches wide, and 30.1 inches deep. You will have to assemble the chair, but it comes with detailed instructions and should be relatively easy to do. It meets all ANSI/BIFMA standards, if that’s something you’re concerned about.

Staples is offering $100 off the chair, which brings the final price down from $230 to $130. You also get free delivery, or you can pick it up at a local store about an hour after you order — as long as you buy it during business hours.

The Emerge Vartan Bonded Leather Gaming Chair has a lot of the same features as the Vortex, except it’s black and red. It also supports a 135-degree recline, so you can lean back when you need a moment of composure.

It comes with a head and lumbar pillow, offering added comfort and support, both of which are removable. You get height, arm, and tilt adjustments, with locks to save your preferred configurations.

The dimensions are 49.9 inches to 53.8 inches tall, 29.2 inches wide, and 27.6 inches deep. Some assembly is required, and it meets all ANSI/BIFMA standards.

Staples will give you $100 off the chair, which brings the final price down from $270 to $170. Free delivery or pickup is included.

Best Xbox Series X and Series S deals: discounts and bundles
Microsoft Xbox Series X and Series S game consoles.

The latest generation of the Xbox has some excellent upgrades, such as a quick pause-and-play function and the option to buy a cheaper digital-only option. Luckily, both the Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S are easier to come by now compared to when they launched and stock was low. That means there are a lot of great deals you can take advantage of right now, and, much like with PlayStation deals, looking around for the best deals will get you much better prices. To that end, we've gone out and scoured all the big and small retailers for some of our favorite deals out there.

Best gaming console deals: cheapest prices on PS5, Xbox S and X and Switch

The latest generation of consoles has been one of the hottest yet when it comes to performance, games, price, and even looks, with some getting the side-eye when they first came out. Even so, there are a lot of folks who might want to upgrade, and there are some great Xbox Series S and X deals, PlayStation 5 deals, and Nintendo Switch deals you can take advantage of below. We've done our best to go out and find the best deals we can, although you should be aware that there's currently a bit of a Nintendo drought going on, and most deals on the Switch and its versions that are worth grabbing are refurbished.
Xbox Series S deals -- starting at $275

The Xbox Series S is the less powerful but cheaper option out of the newest generation Xbox line. When comparing the Xbox Series S versus the Xbox Series X, the Series S takes a hit in all the component categories. That means it's not quite as fast. But if you're not hung up on getting the optimal performance out of your system, you'll actually notice very few differences. The two biggest ones are the Series S's inability to play in 8K, and its lack of a disc drive. Most people don't even have 8K TVs, so that shouldn't be an issue. If you're alright with downloading all of your games straight to the console's memory (and you have a separate DVD or Blu-Ray player), the Series S will work fine. It's quite a bit smaller anyway, and easier to fit on a shelf.

Best gaming PC deal for entry-level gamers
Lenovo LOQ Tower -- $876, was $1,030

If you're looking for the cheapest gaming PC that's still a viable gaming PC, then the Lenovo LOQ Tower is an excellent option. It comes with an RTX 3050, which is entry-level but should handle most free-to-play games just fine, as well as older games from the past few years at 60Hz on lower graphical settings. It also comes with a mid-range Intel Core i5-13400F CPU that's fine for gaming and productivity work, and the 16GB of DDR4 RAM is a surprisingly large amount for this price point and will give you a solid day-to-day experience.
