I want to convert a pair of club chairs with stationary platforms into swivel chairs. Will these support a seated man swiveling?

I returned the item shortly after trying to do the same thing as you. It worked, but not very well. It did swivel, but the motion wasn't smooth like you'd prefer it to be. I don't believe it was a weight issue (I'm 5'9" 185 lbs), but rather a design issue. By design, the lazy Susan rotates on a perimeter ball bearing track...whereas a proper chair swivel "swivels" from a single point in the center. I found a number of web retailers that carried recliner chair swivels. Turns out, most chairs have a standard base design, so it was quite easy to swap out the feet on my chair with a swivel that fit perfectly. Now, instead of rotating on a track, the chair spins on an axis.

I Think It Would Be Too Unstable. The Base Of The Table Needs Adequate Surface Frome The Chair Base To Keep It Stable. Also, When You swivel The Chair You May Bump The Vertica SUpport OnThe Stand.

This should work just fine. There's actually a nice grip to the swivel itself, so as long as the wood is heavy enough, you shouldn't need to attach it. Maybe just dual sided velcro strips if anything is needed.

You can swivel on these but doing so changes the height of the seat and the footrest is stationary. Be aware that swiveling this seat is not a great idea in a tight space because these are a heavy metal and will dent anything in its way. I prefer to lock mine because I don't wish to mar anything and they are most comfortable when using footrest. They are easily locked in place and can be prevented from swiveling if desired. We love ours and everyone has been complimentary of them except if they have to lift them as they are heavy.

I would not use them for that as they would be to bulky for folding metal chairs. They would probably be strong enough though.

Yes. I don't recommend buying this because they are wobbly and cheaply made.......

I would think so. The wedges are very dense, and I think they should manage the weight just fine. They would need to be stacked to reach your desired height.

It could possibly work, they are pretty sturdy. It would depend on how heavy a table top is,but I think it would work. I hope this helps. Paul

Only if you take the leg rest off. They are at an angle and do not go all the way down. The only thing you have to put together is the leg rest. They attach to the chair. I hope this helps you and if I can help again please let me know.

I bought them to fit barstools with leg bases bigger than a nickel, but they were too small for mine so I gave them to my daughter. I don't know if they worked for her chairs.

They would support the desktop, but you would need some chains or a drop-down leg to bear the weight due to the leverage caused by the distance away from the hinge fulcrum. I would use some decorative chains. Good luck.

I don't know if it will actually "fit" any chair in particular, what we did was attached a wooden brace to the chair that we wanted it on, then attached the swivel base to. If you find someone who's handy with basic wood working tools, they should be able to figure out the best way to attach it to the chair.

Yes! In fact, I might order another set of four for the back of my chairs. They are thick though, so I don't think it would work if your chairs are "shallow". It would push you too far forward.

Yes. They should fit perfect on top on the platform. They may hang over a little but the stands themselves are sturdy enough to hold them without a problem. I think they are rated to hold up to 75lbs.

As long as the tray is high enough to avoid the arms of the rocking recliner it should not be a problem. Probably will not be able to swivel easily. It is OK for holding monitor (we have a laptop on it) - just be sure the plate at the bottom is under the legs of the chair - that anchors it. So it may depend on the kind of legs/base the chair is on.

I see no reason why they won't -- i put them on 4 breakfast chairs -- they work great, saved me hundreds and the company that made the chairs (Hooker) wanted 160 per set of 4. I was fixin to just have wood bottoms put on.

It would NOT be safe to use these for chairs. These are designed for beds or desks which remain stationary.
