I looked at options like this before I built the simpit and often wondered how you get out of them.  No matter where you go your flight controls go with you, and with the stick in the middle you have throw a leg over it to get out of the chair.

Apart from which those mounting locations are way too high and far forward.  I see some adjustability, but not nearly enough.  My shoulders hurt just looking at the stick and throttle mounting position.

It might work, and apparently it does for enough people that they sell these, so those concerns might be overblown.

Seems to me nearly all of these "gaming chairs"  are very poor comfort for "any:" length of time. They  look  cool,  and feel nice at the store for 10 minutes,  but after an  hour your butt  would be sore. 

By contrast, most regular chairs  feel ok  for two hours. But for the longest time for comfort,  look to automotive chairs. Can find vehicle chairs for sale in any medium size city.... optimised  for longer time than you ought to be at a computer. 12+ hours of comfort is easily achieved.
