Postazione top. Vorrei lasciare il mio feedback su questa postazione che reputo essere incredibile. La postazione già dal suo arrivo si presenta nel suo imballo con il logo Monkeydriver impresso sul cartone, al suo interno la postazione si presenta ben protetta in tutti i suoi componenti. Il bello viene subito appena la postazione viene tolta dall’imballo, si può subito apprezzare la lavorazione dei tubolari in acciaio e notare la progettazione che c’è dietro a questo lavoro. Il materiale usato è di ottima qualità e si ha subito l’idea di aver per le mani un prodotto estremamente solido e indistruttibile. Seguendo le istruzioni ,molto semplici da seguire passo ,passo ci si mette 1-1:30 ora per il montaggio , l’unica accortezza come nel mio caso , se dovete montare un singolo monitor 49 pollici ,per sicurezza è meglio farlo in 2.( Io montato da solo senza problemi). Una volta finita di montare la postazione si nota subito la sua estrema rigidità e robustezza , risulta essere solida e non si muove di 1 mm. La mia preoccupazione era avendo un sistema direct drive e monitor 49 pollici ,nelle fasi più concitate delle gare ,il monitor poteva muoversi . Sono rimasto veramente stupito nel costatare che non solo la postazione non si muove ,ma anche il monitor resta fermo senza spostarsi di 1mm . Una volta seduti sulla postazione si nota subito un’altra grande particolarità nella progettazione ,il sedile. Risulta essere subito molto,molto comodo e cosa più importante non crea nessun tipo di fastidio alla schiena ,( ed io soffro molto di mal di schiena). Sono ormai 3 mesi che utilizzo la postazione diverse ore a settimana e per lunghe sessione di gioco ,non ho mai avuto problemi di stanchezza . In conclusione sono veramente soddisfatto delle postazione e credo che non avrò mai motivi per cambiarla. Grazie monkeydriver.

I’ve been looking for a rig that i can sit in comfortably for a few hours for Those long stints, something thats got zero flex, proper sitting positions and looks good. I Can honestly say that this is exactly what i wanted! Totally Adjustable. I Guarantee you will not have to compromise one thing to make Another fit or feel Comfortable. The rig is a standard above The majority of rigs out there. it Also looks Fantastic and not like a square metal block with a seat attached.
Vicenzo cleary Cares about his customers by Delivering a First class service. Fast shipping and fast Response To all questions. Cannot Recommend enough.

Honestly The Best Practicality And Solid Sim Rig For The Money. Easy To Assemble. I Have Not Experienced Any Flex Using My Fanatec CSL DD Playing F1 2021. I Can Play For Hours Without Any Pain, The Comfort Is Great. The Support From Monkeydriver Is Awesome. Would Be Nice For The Furture If The Rig Would Have Quick Release For Adjustment Of Wheel And Pedals Instead Of Bolts And Nuts. Happy customer from Sweden!

Look no further, this is the chair to get! It has everything a sim racer is looking for, rookie or pro!
There’s absolutely no flex possible, the quality and durability of the materials is spot on. The comfort is excellent and exactly what you need at this premium level. The looks are stunning; this is the kind of rig your WAG will love too, no need to hide! The fact you get two chairs for the price of one due to the Formula to GT conversion makes it a no brainer; any race mode you like or evolve into; this chair has you covered! All this comes at a fair and highly competitive price and will set you future proof for a couple of years! Don’t hesitate and if you do, the feedback and support from this small company is also next level, just reach out.

Just Perfect!!! Easy to assemble, As comfortable as a sofa And the best support of The company you can imagine… Don‘t hesitate, go for the seat if you want/need a new one!!!! 10/10!!!!

I can’t imagine something better in terms of design and efficiency. The only place in my home that can accommodate a sim rig is the living room and I had no choice, I needed something awesome and I found it. A pleasure for the eyes and the only rig approved by my wife 😀
No flex at all, modular in a million ways and very confortable!
Big attention to every detail, those details that only a driver can think of.
Last but not least the great customer support.
Go with Monkeydriver, the best rig at the right price!

Ho acquistato la postazione Monkeydriver a fine ottobre e dopo due mesi di utilizzo continuo sento di dare un feed-back estremamente positivo. ho individuato 3 caratteristiche peculiari che contraddistinguono questo prodotto, ovvero:
1- rigidità e funzionalità della struttura;
2- Facilità di montaggio;
3- Disegno elegante facilmente inseribile nel contesto casalingo.
La scelta è stata ponderata tra le tante opportunità presenti sul mercato, fortunatamente ne sentii parlare in un video su Yutube e la curiosità mi ha portato ad approfondire le caratteristiche del prodotto ed infine a effettuarne la scelta.
Giro a F1 2021 per più di un’ora al giorno e vi garantisco la comodità della seduta e la rigidità strutturale. Ripeto ottimo prodotto che mi sento di consigliare con estrema serenità, e poi un grazie a Vincenzo per la sua disponibilità e cordialità.

Fantastic small sim ric. Easy to assemble.
F1 position is the best option for tall people but GT you can also use until 1.95 m.
Strong device.
Thommy (verified owner) –
Monkeydriver seat is amazing! It’s everything I wanted it to be. The fact that it can be used as a F1 and GT seat was the reason I bought this seat. However, this seat is so beautiful, very high build quality, comfortable, and adjustable in any way you want, that when there was a F1 version and a GT version I would have bought both! It’s so great that this seat offers both. You get two seats in one without any compromise in design or build quality. I’m impressed and very happy!
Yves (verified owner) –
Im loving the seat, very comfy for long time use, using it on daily basses at least 2 to 3 hours, my seat stays in the F1 stand for every game I play, not getting anything different anytime soon

I originally didn’t plan to buy a new seat. I was going to invest into some new Fanatec gear, keeping my “camping-like” chair from Playseat. One day I stumbled across the monkey driver seat. I was immediately impressed by its versatility (the fact that you can fold it and especially the 2 seating positions). From the first time I contacted Vincent to the actual use of the seat my experience has been amazing. The service & availability of Vincent are great. The seat is comfortable, very sturdy, versatile and the seating position is very customizable. If you want the perfect seat, look no further than the Monkey Driver, really. The only downside is the prize, but perfect customer service and product quality comes at a price. Once you have it installed, you forget about it 😉

Dopo diverse postazioni ho trovato pace con questa.
Design pulito e al contempo bella da vedere e di facile installazione.
Una nota di pregio che la contraddistingue oltre alla comodità è la robustezza e stabilità; non potevo chiedere di meglio.
Assistenza clienti e post vendita perfetta.

He quedado muy contento con la compra. Robusto tiene un diseño brutal comodisimo realmente da la inmersión para la conducción.
Pongo este comentario por que se lo merecen.
Un gran saludo a todos los MONKEYS

I am very happy about the Monkeydriver seat. The adjustment from
GT to Formula seat position was a reason to buy the seat.
Then there is the fact that the seat is very stable and also looks
much better than many other seats on the market.
The only thing I noticed is that I sweat during longer sessions
because the leather on the seat is not breathable enough.

I started Sim Racing last year with a Playseat Challenge and Logitech G923. Which really was a solid setup for the beginning. But i decided to dive a bit deeper into it and got a Fanatec CSL DD (8NM) with a Load Cell Brake. The Playseat Challenge wasnt stable enough anymore, so i was searching for a new Seat.
My questions were answered immediately, so i placed my Order.
3 Days later the Monkeydriverseat arrived (Germany).
I build it up alone. Took me like an hour, with another person it would be even faster.
The Monkeydriverseat is super stable. I dont have any wiggle or flex while driving.
The way you can switch from Formula to GT is easy and quickly done.
Also very important for me ist that you can close the Seat.
I have a girlfriend and i am playing in the Livingroom. She doesnt want the seat to stay there all the time, so i need to move it behind the door in my bedroom.
The whole Seat with Wheel, Pedals and so on has an overall weight of roughly 52 kg, which sounds a lot. But with a stripe foam under it i can easily push it to the other room.
All in all i cant imagine a better Seat for my needs.

Well how to start talking about this wonderful seat lol…
I bought this wonderful seat in November last year, but I didn’t have all my setup assembled to be able to enjoy 100% of what this seat offers…
I completed my setup two months ago and I’m impressed with the quality of this seat! I have no words to describe the quality of this product! For me it’s worth all the effort to bring this seat to Miami-USA!!!! =)
I’m super impressed with the versatility of this two-position design, super comfortable… I’ve been playing for hours straight and I have no discomfort at all! And this design really makes me have a piece of art in my living room lol… All my friends who visit me are impressed with this seat how nice it is! I’m converting some of them to run on simulators now lol
Congratulations on the great product! Looking forward for future products that could come!!

I stumbled across brilliant rig through Instagram. I was a bit sceptical as there were not many reviews of the rig on the internet but I’m so glad I trusted my gut. The thing literally has no flex! The setup was so easy to follow and only took me an hour. I was looking at getting a Next Level Racing F-GT but it looked like too much effort to switch between Gt and Formula style, But this Rig take less than a minute to switch between driving positions. I’m in love with this product because of the space it saves me and the fact that its very comfortable, I waited 2 weeks before I wrote this review to make sure. This seat is the real deal. This was the seat I was searching for! Shipping was quick and replies from the guys were also quick and helpful. The one and only issue I had is that there was no way to attach a handbrake, But I did find a way to sort that issue out myself. I hope in the future they bring out a way of attaching a handbrake but that doesn’t take anything away from the product its amazing!

Premetto che è mia prima postazione, dopo anni passati a giocare alla scrivania.
L’imballaggio in cui si trovava era ottimo, così come le istruzioni di montaggio che ho trovato ben chiare.
Durante il montaggio gli accoppiamenti tra i componenti sono risultati precisi, ed è una cosa che ho apprezzato molto.
La postazione è davvero ben costruita e rifinita.. poi la cosa più importante è che risulta comodissima ed è praticamente immobile.
Si hanno molte possibilità su dove piazzare il motore e la pedaliera, visti i numerosi fori che sono presenti sul telaio.
Il passaggio in posizione Formula o GT è veramente immediato, così come reclinare il sedile quando si è conclusa la sessione di gioco.
Ultima cosa, ma non meno importante, è che è davvero elegante e fa la sua figura una volta posizionata in casa.
Non potevo chiedere di meglio.
La consiglio vivamente a tutti.
Grazie mille Vincenzo!

Sono molto soddisfatto del prodotto. È la mia prima postazione seria, e davvero sono rimasto molto stupito. L’assemblaggio è ottimo, così come l’accoppiamento delle varie parti. Durante l’utilizzo risulta molto stabile e pertanto piacevole da utilizzare. Anche la seduta è molto comoda, perfetta per l’utilizzo che ne faccio. Le istruzioni sono molto chiare così come i video esplicativi. Consigliata a tutti coloro che vogliono avvicinarsi al SIM racing con una postazione che rispecchia in pieno quanto descritto

Soddisfatto al 100% del prodotto, qualità del complesso ottima e facile nell’ assemblaggio, vivendo in Inghilterra ho dovuto usufruire dell’assistenza il che totalmente ottima e affidabile. GRAZIE ANCORA RAGAZZI

I don’t usually leave reviews but for those of you that are in the UK and are on the fence with the idea of purchasing this seat, do it. Do it now! I have had the Monkeydriver seat for just over a month and it is EXCELLENT. I have a Simucube 2, GSI Wheel (FPE) & Heusinkveld sprint pedals setup and it all works wonderfully mounted to this rig. It just oozes quality and it is extremely solid, no flex whatsoever.
When the rig arrived at my door, it was approximately 60kg – fairly heavy! The communication from Monkeydriver was excellent and the packaging was incredibly well thought. You can really tell they care about their product when it is being shipped internationally.
But yes, very happy overall and couldn’t recommend it enough. Very comfortable and easy to make adjustments.
Love the customba

Ho atteso diversi mesi per recensirla dopo averla utilizzata un bel po’, e sono nel complesso molto soddisfatto. C’è però un “ma”. La seduta sta cedendo, quando mi alzo rimane affossata e ormai si sono formate due piccole “buche” permanenti in corrispondenza di dove appoggio il sedere.

Buonasera,ho appena acquistato questa meravigliosa postazione che io uso solo per F1.. e dopo ore seduto,posso dire che finalmente ho trovato il confort che desideravo,stra comoda,zero mal di schiena visto la mia nn più tenera età,.veramente robusta e compatta,molto solida pur avendo montato il DD1 podium Fanatec,il monitor nn si muove di – mm,il top delle postazione racing,veramente veramente bellissima anche come linee .. è facile anche sulle regolazioni per trovare impostazione per la propria guida .. acquisto azzeccato .. consiglio a tutti gli amanti del sim racing
gianluca.malimpensa (verified owner) –
Nulla da dire. Il sim racing lo sappiamo tutti, non è una passione economica e quando si spende spesso non si ha quello per cui si paga. Non è questo il caso. Sembra bellissimo, e quando hai finito di montarlo è bellissimo. Sembra super solido, e quando ti siedi per la prima volta, alla terza curva di sembra di stare in un carroarmato. Zero cigolii sulla struttura, zero mal di schiena dopo ore di utilizzo. Pazzesco. Se state valutando Playseat o altre soluzioni per risparmiare dopo la spesa del gruppo motorre/volante/pedali, non fate l’errore di montarlo su qualcosa che non sia questo rig. Spariti anche i fastidiosissimi “CLANG” nei cambi di direzione ad alta velocità che avevo sul mio CSL DD.
Super consigliato anche l’integrated monitor stand, una volta piazzata una piastra che adattasse l’installazione di uno schermo TV, ha reso quest’ultima un tutt’uno col telaio del rig. Bravi!
