Playseat
Playseat is the world’s leading manufacturer of gaming simulation cockpits. Based in the Netherlands, they design racing and flight seats that replicate the position and feel of real race cars and aircraft.
Used by professional drivers (like Max Verstappen) for training, Playseat products range from foldable, entry‑level seats (Challenge) to robust, permanent setups (Trophy, Sensation Pro) compatible with all major steering wheels and pedals.

Installation
How much space do I need?
