Is the swivel very sturdy or is a fixed seat preferable? I have seen swivels that sort of wobble after some use.

I bought 3 of these and they are very sturdy!!! I plan on buying a few more

We have had these bar stools for 5 months, and the swivel is firm, but they are not hard to turn.

We haven't used ours a ton because the room is under construction, but it seems to be very sturdy. My boyfriend is over 200 pounds and has no problems with it being wobbly.

It is very sturdy. If you swivel, you definitely intend to because it takes a bit of effort, which is good because it never feels wobbly.

I bought it for my toddler to use, but I went up on it and my husband (over 210 lbs) did too and it's super solid and stable. Not a single time I thought it was wobbly.

I think it's sturdier then you think. My snapped together without a hitch. Snap it straight in though and don't twist it. I've had mine for about a year and it's holding up great.

The seat does not wobble. It has a pronounced curve for lower back support, which I find comfortable. I'm 6'5" and it's actually tall enough for me, which is unusual.

It is quite sturdy. I have had it for a few months and I have not experienced any wobbling or shaking.

Our barstool has a backrest and the swivel is more than adequate to handle it. It's stronger now than it was before.

I have been on it and weigh more than 200 lbs. no issues. I will say that if it has been assembled and used for a while the screws will need tightening, which may be why another reviewer had issues with wobble.

I've owned it for 6 months and weigh roughly 300 lbs. You can definitely see it is a little pushed down towards the back now, but the chair itself has held up well. It does sometimes creak a little when getting in or out, but nothing seems to have broken. The heavier you are the harder it will probably be to keep the chair in one position though - you might find yourself constantly tightening the knob on the side, as I do.

It is sturdy. I weigh 130 & have stood on it with no wobble. Will it support someone who weighs 400 lbs? No idea, but certainly it is fine for someone weighing 100-200 lbs.

I just recently built mine and the seat is rock-solid. You have to keep the adjustment screw tight, but I've not detected any movement of the seat while riding. I'm not a big fan of the adjustment screw concept. Although it seems to work well, it's inconvenient (at best) when there are multiple users (and there are three of us using it).

It's pretty sturdy. I haven't had trouble with mine tipping and it's loaded to the hilt, actually too small for my needs (I have over 75 dvd/bd's on it). I Have it in a corner, tho, beside my bed, basically a 0 traffic area

This chair is very study and does not wobble. Had it only for a few weeks but we love it. Hope this helps!

In the time that I've had mine, it remains sturdy and stable. I will try to remember to keep updating just in case anything does break

I find it sturdy and stable. I use it all day at work and have no problem with it.

My Answers:1) Yes, still working. I still like it.2) It's not really either. It's a harder vinyl/rubbery feeling. If you go to any hardware store and look at theirs with lit ends, it's the same thing.3) Not in my case..I wouldn't want a swivel the way I use it. It works well.

Pretty good.alot people complain about the seat wobble.when you have 1 tube inside another for the bench to slide to different positions its natural.just take your time make sure all bolts are tight.

My husband is 200 lbs. and it doesn't wobble, sag or feel like it is weak. I'm thoroughly amazed at the quality for the money we paid. Hope that helps. ~M.
