The Intimate WM Heart Racing gaming chair is both inexpensive and high quality.
It’s comfortable, ergonomic and has adjustments that other chairs in this range don’t have.
I did a lot of research on this brand and quickly discovered that they have only one goal:
To develop the most comfortable and ergonomic gaming chairs at the best possible price.
Instead, you’ll get very responsive support on Twitter.
Try to contact them, you’ll see they respond very quickly.
Their strength lies in creating quality chairs at a very acceptable price.
Should you buy it?
That’s what I’m going to tell you in this review.
Sommaire
The Intimate WM Heart Racing gaming chair is aimed at gamers on a budget (and therefore looking for a good deal) but…
Who still want quality, because they spend a lot of time sitting at the computer and know they need to take care of their backs.
For those with an unlimited budget who just want the best…
What are you doing here?
I can recommend you to read my ranking of the best gaming chairs.
In terms of morphology, this office chair is for you if you’re no more than 113kg and between 1m50-1m90.
Good points :
Negative points :

That’s a very good point, because it’s very rare on these ranges to have such a foam.
But what’s the point of such foam?
It’s what keeps your chair’s foam from flattening as you sit on it.
So it’s very important, if you don’t want to throw your money down the drain, to have foam that won’t collapse after a few months.
Fortunately for you, the Intimate WM Heart has top-notch foam!
Durability and comfort are yours!
Only flaw: The brand doesn’t specify the exact density.
However, it does mean that it’s about 28kg/m3!
Take a look at the photo of the intimate WM Heart, and see that the sides of the seat are “curved”.
This means you’ll be better supported in your chair and therefore…
Sit even more comfortably!
What really differentiates a chair made for long use from one made for short use?
Its rocking mechanism!
A good rocking mechanism (of which there are many) will protect your back from bearing the load of your body all day long.
The rocking mechanism will take care of this, because the backrest will follow your movements, and if you lean back, it will lean back too.
Yet another lack of transparency that makes the intimate WM Heart lose points.
The gas cylinder is what gives you the strength to move your chair up and down.
So it’s important that it’s well-made (and that counts in classes) so you don’t have any problems getting your gaming chair up/down.
Unfortunately, the brand didn’t specify the class of the actuator used.
However, it’s still a quality actuator, and nobody’s complaining.
So I think it’s a simple omission on their part…
Normally, nobody cares what class the cylinder is!
Un support en métal est intéressant car il s’agit d’un matériau très solide, donc durable.
L’inconvénient du bois est qu’il n’est pas aussi léger que le métal et qu’il ajoutera donc un peu de charge à votre chaise de bureau.
Cependant, ce n’est pas nécessairement une mauvaise chose, car il ajoute également un peu de stabilité.
Je ne suis pas choqué par la croix de jambe en plastique…
C’est habituel pour ce budget et il faudrait multiplier le prix par 2 environ pour obtenir un matériau un peu meilleur.
Mais ne vous inquiétez pas, je n’ai encore jamais cassé de croix de pied !
You’ll be able to adjust their height.
This is what I consider to be the “minimum”.
Why is that?
Because if you want to sit comfortably, they need to be adjusted to the height of your desk.
And you can’t do that unless they’re height-adjustable (which is the ergonomic minimum).
What’s more, if you adjust them properly, your elbows will rest on them at right angles, which will ALSO take the strain off your shoulders.
In short, this is the minimum if you want to take care of your body, especially as each one is padded.
It’s a beautiful bucket seat, available in multiple colors.
Frankly, it’s going to be super easy to adapt to your office given its wide choice of colors and beautiful design.
I particularly love the red, pink and black versions.
I would have liked the brand to have been embroidered on the top of the chair or on a cushion (that would have added a lot to the beauty of the design) but that’s not the case.
Well, at least it cuts costs and you don’t lose out on comfort.
The leatherette used for the iwmh is very good compared with other leatherette used for gaming chairs in similar ranges.
It’s also nice compared to fabric, because fabric doesn’t look as premium.
At first glance you’ll see that it doesn’t look cheap at all, and most importantly…
It won’t disintegrate over time like the average mass-market chair.
What’s more, imitation is easy to clean if you do stain it.
Frankly, I’m greatly surprised that they also offer cushions at this price.
I’m used to having chairs sold without cushions.
And why is it good to have cushions, you might ask?
The neck cushion will be placed behind your neck to mark the “normal” curvature of your neck and protect it.
The lumbar cushion will be placed at the base of your back, also to mark the “normal” curvature of your back in the lumbar region and thus prevent a whole host of back problems.
The finish and stitching are good, just what I like.
The seams aren’t very visible, and pick up the color of the material they’re binding. So on red = red seams.
Which is a very good sign.
As for the rest, they’re even, tight and clean.
I’ve seen much worse, and frankly I’m happy with this.
These are polyurethane castors, so there’s no problem there.
They’re well-designed and don’t snag or leave marks on the floor.
On the other hand, if you’re a gliding enthusiast or have several desks, having already reviewed roller-type wheels…
I recommend you buy a pair and leave the basic wheels off.
For others, no problem.
There are better tilt angles than 135° (such as 180°, which almost corresponds to a lying position).
But frankly, 135° is already nice, and 180° is starting to be excessive.
It’s mostly a gimmick: who’s going to lie down on their gaming chair?
We don’t have time to lie down, we have to play!
With 135°, you’ll already be able to find a good angle, and 135° is ideal for relaxing while watching a film or series.
All you need to do is add a footrest and you’re all set!
The intimate WM Heart is easy to adjust.
On the right-hand side of the seat, you’ll find a lever that lets you adjust the chair’s inclination.
Under the seat, you’ll find a wheel that lets you adjust the hardness of the tilting mechanism according to your weight (I recommend adjusting it carefully).
And on the side under the seat, you’ll find a lever that allows you to raise/lower the chair, but also…
If you pull it towards you, or if you push it, to block/unblock the tilting system.
As with most gaming chairs, assembly on this model is pretty straightforward.
I’ll put an assembly/unboxing video below to show you just how easy it can be in 20-30 minutes!
For you, I scoured the internet for other reviews and noted what others liked/didn’t like.
Everyone confirms that assembly is very quick and that in no more than 30 minutes you’ll have your chair ready to use.
The general appearance of the chair and the superb design of the seams were the most frequent comments.
At the same time, it has to be said that they’ve done their homework for the price!
Comfort is described as slightly firm.
Which is perfect when your back hurts (avoid anything soft, because it can hurt even more).
The 1D armrests delight people as much as the fact that it reclines up to 135°, which means you can practically lie down.
On its own, it’s a good gaming chair for anyone who spends time on the computer and is looking for an affordable one.
The Tresko chair, on the other hand, has no adjustable armrests, a non-adjustable backrest and is a little less high quality.
It’s still comfortable and very inexpensive.
It’s a good alternative if the iwmh’s price puts you off.
Read my review of the Tresko gaming chair.
This Tectake gaming chair looks a lot like the Tresko.
No adjustable armrests, no adjustable backrest – in fact, it’s a gaming chair that’s really geared to small budgets.
The difference with the Tresko is, for example, the size of the armrests.
I’d recommend Tectake only if your budget doesn’t allow for the intimate wm heart.

The Songmics RCG12W gaming chair!
It has 2D adjustable armrests, a backrest that swivels up to 150°, PU leather of the same high quality as the IWMH.
What’s more, it has high-resilience foam.
In short, it’s a good choice if you can afford the price difference.
Read the RCG12W review here.
It’s super hard to find a good quality, comfortable chair with multiple adjustments without shelling out hundreds of euros.
The intimate WM Heart, with its super-affordable price and adjustable armrests, reclining backrest, good materials, high-density foam and quality imitation leather, is the perfect answer.
