Hey everyone,
Chris from obutto here….for years I have wanted to get some forums up on the site so obutto owners had a place to hang out, show off their cockpits, talk about modifying, and even sell some kit. Well I managed to find the time so I hope you all enjoy the new forum, and I also hope it is beneficial to all of you.
This will also be a centralized place to see our customers feedback & suggestions, so by all means let us know your thoughts.
Lastly, we will use the forum for announcements about new upcoming products & accessories.
Thanks for your time, enjoy!

*edit 30 Mar 2013* Just wanted to add a little something about OBUTTO, for those interested. I’m a gamer and I first created my “gaming cockpit” to give myself a comfortable way to game. I threw out the “desk” concept as they were not made for using a computer, and designed something from the ground up to meet my needs.
During that time I decided there are probably others in the world who had the same needs, so I moved to Beijing from Singapore, and dumped all my time, energy, and dough into creating OBUTTO. The idea was simple, if I could make the cockpits as inexpensively as possible, then folks around the world could purchase them at an affordable price. So instead of folks continuing to buy chairs & desks, they could have the goodness & comfort of an obutto cockpit.
Affordable is perhaps dependent on who is buying, but my goal was the price to be similar to a decent computer desk & office chair. For the most part we succeeded, but over time the economy in China has gone through the roof so prices have slowly crept up as our costs to manufacture have increased. With that said, our goal still remains the same, and we will continue to offer our cockpits at affordable prices so all fellow gamers & computer users can enjoy using their computers in comfort.
Thanks for taking the time to read a little about OBUTTO!
