The Darafeev 917 is an upholstered game chair with casters that can move easily between a poker table, dining table, and even a home office.
It combines an adjustable seat height, 360-degree swivel, Flexback movement, padded upholstery, and rolling casters in a much more residential-looking design than a typical desk chair.
If you’re searching for dining chairs with casters, but don’t want your dining room to start looking like a conference room, this is a great middle ground.
Use the lever underneath the seat to raise or lower the chair from 18″ to 22″.
That gives different people the ability to find a comfortable sitting height and also makes the chair easier to pair with game, poker, and dining tables that may vary slightly in height.
For a dedicated game room, that flexibility is one of the biggest advantages of an adjustable height game chair.
The 917’s Flexback allows approximately 1 to 1½ inches of movement when you lean into the back.
It’s not a dramatic recline. Instead, it gives you just enough movement to keep the chair from feeling rigid during a long dinner or several hours around a card table.
The seat swivels a full 360 degrees, while casters underneath the wood base make it easy to move away from the table.
That can be especially convenient when several chairs are positioned closely together around a poker or dining table. Instead of dragging the entire chair backward, you can simply roll out.
It’s why shoppers looking for dining chairs with wheels, kitchen chairs with casters, or poker chairs with casters often gravitate toward this type of design.
The armless design keeps the 917 from feeling bulky and makes it easier to pull closer to the table.
It also allows you to fit multiple chairs around a game or dining table without large armrests taking up extra room between seats.
You still get a padded back and seat, but in a cleaner silhouette.
The maple wood base gives the chair warmth and keeps it from looking too much like conventional office seating.
Maple has a finer, smoother grain than oak, so the wood finish tends to look more even and understated. Choose from a range of finishes to coordinate it with your dining table, game table, desk, or other furniture.
Customize the seat and back in fabric, vinyl, or leather.
Leather can give the 917 a classic poker-room feel, while a neutral performance fabric can make it look more at home in a dining room. You can also use a lighter upholstery and wood finish for a cleaner, more contemporary look.
Although the 917 is primarily designed as a game and dining chair, its adjustable height, casters, swivel, padded back, and Flexback make it surprisingly practical at a desk.
For someone who wants the function of an office chair, but doesn’t love the look of mesh, plastic, or a large executive chair, this gives you another option.
The term suspension seat comes from the liner suspended between the wood frame. As the occupant moves up and down, the liner gives, preventing the body from constantly hitting against a hard surface such as those found in stock seats.
