A High-Back Gaming Chair You Can Lean Back In
The Navigator is the high-back, black PU chair in the Buro x PowerA gaming range. The back and seat are upholstered over moulded foam, with a built-in headrest. A synchro mechanism, backrest angle adjustment and knee tilt let you set your lean, and a tilt tension knob fine-tunes the resistance when you lean back. Body weight activated lumbar support protects the natural curve of your lower back, and what Buro calls 4D armrests carry soft PU arm pads.
Like Buro's office chairs, it is certified to ANSI/BIFMA X5.1-2017, GREENGUARD Gold certified and endorsed by the Australian Physiotherapy Association, which makes it a gaming chair in Australia with an office chair's credentials behind it.

This Listing
This is the Buro x PowerA Navigator, Buro code 155-PU3: a single specification in black PU with a built-in headrest, 4D armrests and a black nylon base with kick plates. There are no colour or arm options to choose, and the seat does not slide for depth.
For a breathable mesh back with an adjustable headrest and 5D armrests, see the Buro x PowerA Sentinel ergonomic gaming chair; for the grey PU option, see the Buro x PowerA Raider gaming chair. All three pair with the Buro x PowerA Frontier height adjustable gaming desk.
Why We Chose Buro
Buro Seating was founded in Auckland in 1994 and has been part of ACCO Brands since 1 March 2025. It publishes a specification sheet and dimensioned line drawings for each chair, and states its certifications, weight rating and guarantee model by model.
We sell the Buro x PowerA chairs because they carry the same paperwork as Buro's office range: ANSI/BIFMA X5.1-2017 certification, GREENGUARD Gold and Australian Physiotherapy Association endorsement.
