OpenWheeler GEN3 Racing Wheel Stand Cockpit Green on Black | Fits All Logitech G923 | G29 | G920 | Thrustmaster | Fanatec Wheels | Compatible with Xbox One, PS4, PC Platforms

Very comfortable chair and seemed solid. I am almost 300 pounds and wasnt expecting this chair could accommodate my size. Its relatively easy to assemble and has great additions and options for different settings. For this price, quality and options, I would highly recommend it for gamers and simulation set up.

Yeah, ok, I dont have a Youtube anymore, but Im sure a few people reading this will still recognize the name. 5 years since my retirement from Focke-Wulfing and Im still Turbo-Lotusing, and this seat is where Im at right now with hardware. Im actually more enthusiastic about this racing seat than Ive been about any piece of sim hardware since CH products or even Track IR, and the support the company puts behind the product is the primary reason why -- its a great product with unbeatable customer support. I tried to repair my previous seat (a Bob Earl V1) but the damage to the fiberglass was too great for a patch. Seeing as Bob Earl is out of the racing seat business these days (making spares or replacement parts difficult) new options were needed. I investigated several options, quickly settling on this Openwheeler as checking all the right boxes for me: close to the open wheel sitting position, durable heavy steel adjustable hardware, and a comfortable, realistic, adjustable seat. I was looking for functional simplicity, and sight unseen I made a very good choice. These seats are very well made, comfortable, and solid. The padding and especially the foam molding design could be better (it feels like years of use could cause them to detach), but for the price it is quite acceptable (and Ill be back to update over the years if I have problems). The seat is not a genuine Sparco or anything like that -- its just a generic racing seat meant to imitate the more expensive ones, but for a generic racing seat it largely feels nice and well made. The welding on the frame is a bit sloppy in places but the entire system is very sturdy and easy to adjust. Very, very solid. The knobs used to adjust the entire system are very well made and comfortable on the hands (a huge improvement from my old Bob Earl). The first seat I received (the blue one) came with a bent/defective base and Openwheeler shipped me a replacement very quickly with a simple email. All they requested were some pictures and they quickly expedited me a replacement (complete with tools). Overall the design is of very high quality, and, more importantly, its very functional. I was originally going to dock them at least one star for these seats not being compatible with Fanatec racing hardware, but after quickly dashing off an email to customer service they went out of their way to ship me, unexpectedly and completely for free, a bunch of prototype parts and beta designs they were working on that added Fanatec hardware compatibility. They were quick, pleasant, very professional, and actually listened to me and responded to my feedback. For example when the first pedal mount bracket they sent wasnt aligned properly I drew a diagram of what was wrong and they immediately fabricated and sent me a fix for it. This type of back and forth happened for several months and they ended up sending me numerous pieces to test and feedback. They clearly care about their product, and their customers. Ive got a direct relationship now with their customer support (positive energy and shouts go out to Dimitar!) virtually guaranteeing 100% of my future business in this purchasing category (mid level racing seats and related hardware). Its a pity more companies dont recognize the positive and long lasting relationships they could cultivate with their customers if theyd simply make a little effort. Now Im totally satisfied, sitting in a comfortable racing seat, very close to an accurate open wheel sitting position, with hard mounted Fanatec CSR wheel and hard mounted Fanatec Clubsport V2 pedals, totally immersed in my favourite racing sims, hanging on to the limit of grip in all my favourite race cars. Its too bad PCARS development never went anywhere (an example of a company going out of their way to cultivate bad relationships with their customers, those guys), but at least the future of rFactor 2 is looking exceedingly bright. Bring on the next 5 or 10 years of sim racing, because Im ready!

Excellent cockpit for sim racing! Absolutely strong enough to run a lower/mid level Fanatec set up. I’m using the CSL Elite wheel, with shifter and handbrake w/ CS V3 pedals. Super rigid set up. Little to no sway. You don’t need to spend $1k+ on a cockpit. Very pleased. Assembly was cake. Would love to see an additional shifter mount included and maybe a couple of extra twist locks. One did arrive broken.

The structure was pretty strong and many adjustment points let me custom fit my body pretty tight. I can lean back and support me well when I want little rest from playing a while. I picked this one because it had most features maintaining a high quality. I love its bright color and and how perfectly it fits under my stair case closet lol. I recommend this to everyone.

Ugh… Bought this as a gift and waited until Christmas Eve to open the box and assemble the seat only to discover there was a crack in the plastic part of the seat. This came as a surprise because the box was packed well and didn’t have any damage on the outside.

Fantastic entry setup. Can’t think of any cons, other than I probably wouldn’t use it for direct drive but chances are if you have one then you already know why. If you’re new in the market and overwhelmed by all the choices then look no further. Sturdy, great materials, comfy seat. Absolutely get what you pay for here. Unless you absolutely want an open wheeler seating position I would recommend the optional seat risers.

Very easy to put together using for all my Sim racing games

For the price, this stand was hard to beat. I shopped around quite a bit before ultimately purchasing the Openwheeler and could not find a better alternative. There are a number of more expensive solutions but very few in this price range. The center post steering wheel mount is mildly annoying when you get into, or out of the seat but is otherwise not in the way. Plenty of adjustment for any player/driver. I am 60 and have plenty of room. The seat is comfortable for a while but my back does grow tired of sitting in it for long periods as it lacks any lumbar support.

Solid stuff. I love this thing, just dont waist your money on Logitech gear to go with it. I had to return the G29. Read Logitech support forums before wasting your time with that junk. I returned mine and replaced it with Thrustmaster gear. Youll have to drill a couple of holes to mount the peddles, but well worth the time. Thrustmaster wheel and external gear shifter are far superior. I watched a couple of videos stating that the peddle mount was a little flimsy, but that has obviously been corrected. This rig is very sturdy. It sits way too low for the viewing level of most TVs, but a platform to raise it up is pretty easy for most to build. See photo.

Easy to assemble and I liked that it came with tools. Kudos to OpenWheeler for making such a detailed instruction manual which includes color photos. The adjustability is great for the pedals, wheel, and seat; but I wish there was more adjustability for the shifter, it feels very far away and more height would be nice too. Im using the g29 setup and it bolted up perfectly using the hardware provided. The seat is comfortable for a sim seat, it seems well made but well see how it wears over the next few years. Im excited to see how it is when I hook my flight sim controls up to it. Overall a great buy, I just wish it was a little cheaper.
