Can anyone explain how to adjust the tilt? Instruction says that I can adjust tilt by pulling out the the lever underneath the seat, but I can't.

The only adjustment (on the right side) is to raise or lower it. If you stand up and push down on the lever, the chair will raise up. If you sit down and then push it, the chair will adjust to a lower position. There is no tilt adjustment. You can only adjust the tension for when you lean back in the chair. It doesn't change the position. I love the chair. I took a chance...I have an Aeron chair where everything is adjustable. However, the tilt on it breaks after a year or two. This one is a very affordable compromise and very attractive.

The lever is for adjusting up and down. Try turning the round knob underneath the seat. That seems to help the tension when leaning back.

I pull out the lever to make the chair lean back. I've never felt the need to make any other adjustment. This is the same approach to "Tilt" that I've used on other chairs. Did you expect something different or have you not been able to pull out the lever so it would tilt?

The lever locks the back and seat in the upright position. Pulling out the lever about an inch allows the back and seat to tilt in a 2 to 1 ratio (the back tilts twice as much as the seat) as you lean back. I find this design to be very comfortable and supportive.

Obviously pulling the handle up with raise & lower. To operate the tilt, pull the handle straight out horizontally. This will allow you to rock it. Bring the seat back to an upright position, push the handle back in horizontally and it will lock. Hopefully this helps you!

I tilted the seat way forward so the nose is lower than the rear. Im a big guy with big male parts and this is the only way it felt comefortable. But, when I did the tilt it turned into the most comefortable seat ive ever used. Im using an integral mount with a tilt adjustment, not the mount that came with the seat. FYI, im 6'5", 270lbs. To the other who didnt find it comefortable, tilt it foreward!

Unfortunately, there are no directions for this so it is a matter of trial and error. Try sitting on it and move the lever up and down. Remove a little bit it will go either down or up. Good luck

You cannot adjust and set a tilt level. It either locked in upright position or tilts freely (up to 30-35 degree). Stiffness of the tilting spring is adjustable though from easy tilt to requiring some degree of push.

The tilt mechanism can sometimes be stuck, if you examine the bar that goes into the "pneumatic pump area", you'll see it crosses over to the left side to lock the seat... If it isn't engaging, try some WD-40 or tilt chair forward and try in a slightly forward tilt position, and it should engage

No, the tilt is not adjustable only the height! This stool is very comfortable.

mine doesn't adjust, it is set to the tallest. When I try to lower it, nothing moves? Does anyone know why? Thank you

There is no way for it to tilt. Sits flat, only adjustment is the height. Just a note, it is fairly comfortable for a hard seat.

the tilt adjustment is behind the bracket that mounts to the TV. It is not much tilt but it works fine for me

Unfortunately you cannot adjust the legs. I have the same problem. I just prop the legs up and that seems for fix it.

Does not tilt - just goes up and down. The mechanism for the up & down action isn't super robust either - kinda slides up and down even after the knob has been firmly tightened (slick plastic clamp on slick metal tubes). This is not a really great quality seat - pretty low quality Chinese product - but it is cheap so can't expect too much. Good luck.

I suppose by adjusting back legs differently . the point is for ease of leaving chair . it is a gentle tilt barely noticed.

The knob in front under chair adjusts the tension of the lean. the lever on the side that adjusts height also allows for tilt if you pull it out to the right. it leans pretty far, but u may have to loosen the knob to get the tension where u need it for easy recline..

One knob beneath the seat. Loosen it, adjust the seat shaft up or down, tighten it. Easy.

Mr. Rashad. I have installed this item myself. Unfortunately, the only way to adjust the height of mount is to switch out the different sized poles. You can tilt and change the direction of view, but the height only has two different settings and must be set by switching out the short or long pole extension. I hope this helps:)

Just tilt. I bought an extension handle which helps, but I need to tighten it often.
