AutoFull M6 Ultra: Two-minute review
Alright, I’m going to be totally honest: I wasn’t expecting the AutoFull M6 Ultra gaming chair to be very good. I’ve seen gaming chairs with fancy massage and cooling functions before, and I was never very impressed with them (in fact, I had a good laugh about one of them during Amazon Prime Day 2022).
On paper, it sounds a bit ridiculous: a premium gaming chair completely loaded with options, from ‘6D’ armrests to built-in followers and even a heating ingredient that helps preserve your posterior the right temperature. In observe, although, it delivers on all of the marketed guarantees – virtually all of them, anyway.
For starters, it is genuinely very comfy and looks like a premium product. The cushioning is good and plush on the seat, again, and headrest, and the PU leather-based end is pleasantly cool to the contact. Both the bottom of the seat and the lumbar assist part are perforated to make them extra breathable, too.
I’d potentially go so far as to call this one of the best gaming chairs on the market proper now – however extra as a result of general prime quality and luxury, slightly than the additional fancy options. That being mentioned, the cooling and heating capabilities genuinely do work – extra on that later on this evaluation.
In reality, I’d should admit that a few of my points with the AutoFull M6 Ultra are extra to do with me than the chair itself. I’m 6’3″, and I can not assist however really feel like this chair merely wasn’t designed for somebody of my stature. But for those who’re six toes tall or much less, this might be the right chair for you – particularly for those who stay someplace with a heat local weather.
AutoFull M6 Ultra: Price and availability
With a $799.99 / £799.99 (around AU$1,225) price tag, the M6 Ultra is far from affordable. Even relatively premium offerings from respected gaming chair brands like SecretLab and NobleChairs are cheaper.
That being said, it’s worth noting that this is the highest-end model sold by AutoFull. If you’re willing to sacrifice the massage and cooling/heating functions, there’s also the M6 Elite, which retails for $599.99 / £599.99 (around AU$920) and retains the same high build quality without the extra bells and whistles.
Plus, at the time of writing, the M6 Ultra is on sale at AutoFull’s website (seemingly in every territory), bringing the price down to a far more reasonable $569.99 / £569.99 (around AU$875). In that range, it’s going up against chairs like Razer‘s Iskur V2 and the SecretLab Titan Evo, and for my cash, it performs fairly properly in opposition to these rivals.

AutoFull M6 Ultra: Design and features
To describe this gaming chair as feature-rich is almost an understatement; I’m frankly surprised it doesn’t also cook my dinner and do my taxes. In terms of its core construction, it’s nothing groundbreaking; we’ve got a five-armed ergonomic base with smooth rolling casters, a fully reclining backrest, and a racing seat design with sturdy but not uncomfortable bolsters on either side.
The armrests feature ‘6D’ movement, which sadly doesn’t mean that they’re capable of accessing a forbidden sixth dimension of spacetime, but rather that they can move in six specific directions.
This makes the armrest position highly customizable, which is great, though I would’ve liked to see a little more resistance on the 360-degree rotation; it’s a bit too easy to push them out of position when getting up or sitting down, but this is an admittedly very minor quibble on my part.
The recline function works well, with a sturdy feel to the backrest and the option to go back almost to a fully horizontal position. Combined with the extendable flip-up legrest, it’s certainly one of the most comfortable gaming chairs – you possibly can fairly take a cushty nap within the M6 Ultra for those who had been so inclined, or reclined (sorry).
The headrest may be very plush, however – considerably unusually for a premium gaming chair – is not detachable. Instead, it is mounted on an adjustable bracket, and the perimeters will be ‘folded’ inwards too for a cradling impact. It’s adequate, however I can not assist however really feel like a magnetic headrest would’ve been a more sensible choice right here. The lumbar assist can also be totally adjustable (and really comfortable), however cannot be eliminated with out damaging the chair.
Now, onto the good things: does this chair actually preserve your bum cool? Surprisingly, sure, it does. Two followers within the breathable seat heart will be set to a few completely different energy ranges, they usually undoubtedly do preserve the temperature down. I reviewed the M6 Ultra on the peak of a nasty heatwave right here within the UK, and whereas I wasn’t precisely blown away (no pun meant) by the cooling, it did make a noticeable distinction after an prolonged interval within the chair.
The heating perform works fairly properly, too. Given the present temperatures on the time of writing, I used to be reluctant to make use of it for very lengthy, however it actually does get good and toasty. It’s straightforward to think about how nice that might be in the midst of winter.
The identical cannot actually be mentioned for the ‘therapeutic massage’ performance, sadly. This is principally only a vibration motor hid within the lumbar cushion, which will be set to pulse at three completely different speeds. I hoped for a extra lively therapeutic massage expertise (like these cumbersome chairs you see at malls and airports) and finally discovered it extra annoying than stress-free.
All of those options are managed by three buttons on the seat.

So, how does the AutoFull M6 Ultra actually perform in practice? Well, for me, not great. At 6’3″, I’m simply a bit too tall for this gaming chair; the headrest was the main offender, as setting it to the maximum height was still a little too low for me to sit comfortably. The NobleChairs Hero TX that I use as my regular desk chair stands about two inches taller by comparison.
Luckily, I have a 5’9″ fiancé who I was able to persuade (read: bribe with snacks) into using the chair for a few days, and he reported that it was actually fantastically comfortable if you’re not excessively tall. Even after a five-hour Stardew Valley binge, it was comfy and sweat-free thanks to the cooling function. Consider this a warning, then: if you’re my height or taller, this might not be the chair for you.
In terms of other body types, the M6 Ultra is wide enough to accommodate most plus-sized users, and it works well for cross-legged sitting as well. The lumbar support is genuinely great (something I’m always on the lookout for in desk chairs), and it’s very easy to find a natural elbow position thanks to the multi-directional armrests. It’s also Lucy-approved, an extremely important certification for any chair, as you can see in the picture below.
When it comes to the question of longevity, it’s always difficult to gauge exactly how well a chair will last based on a few weeks reviewing it, but I have to say that I feel confident about the staying power of the M6 Ultra. The stitching looks and feels high-quality, and the chair as a whole is very robust, with mostly metal and leather in its construction; the only plastic I could see here was the external covers for the seat hinges and the lumbar adjustment dial.
One last thing I have to bring up: don’t expect to be rolling around in this thing unless you’ve also got a USB power bank to connect to it. The USB cable that powers the extra features is simply too short to practically connect it to a PC or wall outlet unless you remain perfectly still, so the best solution is to plug it into a portable charger and store that in the handy pocket on the back of the chair.

How we tested the AutoFull M6 Ultra
I spent more than a week testing out the AutoFull M6 Ultra gaming chair, swapping out my usual desk chair, the NobleChairs Hero TX, to use it daily at home, both for work (since I work from home) and a fair bit of gaming.
I’m 6’3″ and weigh about 95kg (209lbs), so I’m on the large side – which is why I had both my 5’9″ partner and 5’11” friend spend some time in the chair too, to get a properly rounded idea of how comfortable it is for different people.
We all tested out various positions for the headrest, armrests, and lumbar cushion, as well as seeing how comfortable the footrest and additional features were. I carefully documented their feedback and also took the time to read some product reviews on AutoFull’s own website, to make sure there were no glaring issues with the M6 Ultra that I’d somehow missed in my own testing (and there weren’t, so my pride remains intact).
