how high is the foot rest in 1st position is it level or angled down. i need my legs sticking straight out or slightly elevated.

In the reclining position, the footrest is 19" off the ground. It's hard to answer whether there is an upward or downward leg angle because there are both. It starts with a slight upward angle from the thighs to the knees, and then there's a slight downward angle from the knees to the feet.(note, one of the pictures shows the chair in the reclining position).

They Will Stick Strait Out. I'm 6ft2in, and it's the best Recliner I ever sat in.18 inches off the floor. It's a Great Buy. I love it.

It goes strait out if you put in the locked position.This chair is very comfortable. I fall asleep in it all the time. I also have circulation problems and it helps my legs. Hope this helps you.

It's pretty straight out. I'm a 5'7" 135lb female so my legs on it didn't weigh it down, but it felt strong enough to support even more weight. My husband is 6'6" and 220, and he says his legs are out straight, but at a higher weight it does cause you to lean back a bit to get the full leg extension. Really comfortable chair - definitely recommend.

Sorry for the late response. The foot rest measured about 19" from the floor when it is elevated. If you have the foot rest raised (elevated), you will have your legs up sticking straight out... at least that is the situation for me. Not sure if the weight of the legs will affect the degree of the foot rest elevation in over time.

I guess first position is chair goes back(back of the chair touches the floor) and foot rest extends out. Then you can push back further on the back of the chair for a more horizontal position but the foot rest doesn't move anymore. Your legs will always be sticking out unless you are just sitting upright in the chair.

William, I haven't moved my foot rest from the original position, so I can't speak to how consistent it is adjusting that feature to different levels. I'm sitting on it as I'm writing this, and the best feature I can recommend is the range of heights the seat will reach. The seat adjustment is very durable and consistent. The feature I dislike the most is the lack of locking casters, because when you sit down on it, the shaft spring lets the seat sink an inch or so and springs back up when you get up. If you're on a hardwood floor, this action can cause the stool to "spring" away from you. Hope this helps. :-) William, I haven't moved my foot rest from the original position, so I can't speak to how consistent it is adjusting that feature to different levels.

Do the leg rests elevate to adjust to different positions? I will need to elevate my leg higher than the photo indicates. Thank you!

With the legs out all the way (braces parallel to the floor), it's very stable. What I try to do is to place the base of the stand so that two legs face the dance floor and one faces away, so that it presents a smaller profile and a leg isn't directly protruding in a manner that someone could trip on it. It will also help if you keep the load well balanced, hang heavier fixtures toward the inside, and turn the t-bar so that it isn't directly over any of the legs but more straddling them. Kind of hard to explain in text but I hope you get the point.

Hi,Jan;I am shorter than 5' too and 17-18 " from the floor is a perfect position for this chair. Put small pillow on the back too.It will keep you straight.Natalia Chapin

37 1/4" exactly. The legs have adjusters at the bottom that you can get adjustment out of but mine is completely leveled at the lowest setting.

As already mentioned there are brackets that hold the legs in an upright position. I would add that when the footrest is turned upside down the brackets tend to disengage and make it very easy for the legs to fold flat for storage or transportation.

It might be.... I'm 5'10" and it felt a little high at first. My wife has used it though and hasn't complained but she might just not know the difference. I love it though and have no regrets. If u incline it in the first position it still feels flat, I wouldn't even call it an incline position but it makes a big difference for the legs reach.

Leg rests can go level with seat and maybe slightly higher (10-15% angle higher). Regards,

It's preset position (not independent) for both legs & back. As you recline, the legs go up 1st til reach ~80% then back tilts so that if legs fully up you're probably about a 10-20% back recline. Then proceeds from there to full back recline. We've found using a pillow behind helps if want the legs full up.

The legs swing out but you need to be sure they are spread out fully. They don't lock or pop so that you know they are fully extended on either end. If they aren't all the way out it will feel wobbly. I love it though - the middle leg isn't right up under the center so it isn't stabbing you in the back all night - much better than others I tried.

The leg rest elevates to a horizontal position, and the back reclines to about 45 degrees above horizontal when you look at it, but sitting in it, it feels like it reclines closer to flat. It's quite comfortable

We set it up according to my husbands height. So it is not in an upward or downward tilt, I had to have him out his knee on the seat looking thing and adjust it till he was level. This is the best I can do for you. I hope this helps.

The bottom of the mattress will sit about a foot off the ground, so add the height of your mattress to one foot to get your overall height. We love this piece! Took a while to assemble, but well worth the price!

The lowest seat height is pretty much the standard barstool height. I am short so my legs end up dangling, However the seat width and depth are very generous. Don't have the exact measurements. The one thing I don't like is the foot rest it could be bigger around and that would take care of not having to dangle my legs.

Total height of the Evenup is 5/8. I took out the removable part and my legs are perfectly even. I could not get out and about with using the Evenup with my boot!

it is a slight angle. Perhaps 15 Degrees? that is just a guess. However, it is not parallel to the floor
