Anyone have any tips for getting the back rest to stay up? There isn't any screw or knobs to do this.

Hi.. I noticed that too but.. mine just stays up until I push it back down.

It slides up and down on a ratcheting rod. This makes it adjustable. Something is wrong with yours if it doesn't do this.

I had this problem and just decided to screw the cover, the tailpiece which is supposed up slide on is what you are referring to I assume. Mine would just fall off because it wasn't crimped properly. You can try using pliers to adjust the edges of both the cover and the base if its important to you.

I followed the directions very carefully when putting it together but I cannot raise it. It is a pretty chair, but I am keeping it. Had to go buy another. When I could not get it to rise, I tried to take it apart to start over. Could not. Goood luck.

Loosen the nut and screw where the seat post and the frame meet...you can move it up and down...and then retighten.

You have to work it slowly like I'm sure youve already tried. I Even slightly bent in a small bit of the side to get it to at least start. Then wiggle it around in a circle til it finally seats. Its a pain in the Butt. Sorry no great secret way.

Have you tried loosening the bolts and raising the brackets up from the bed frame? That's what I had to do. Sorry if I seem to remedial. Haven't heard of anything else. If that doesn't work try your local Lowe's or Home Depot.

This has happened to me before, and I usually find that adjusting the seat completely upright and making sure the canopy is all the way back does the trick. Hope that helps!

I just got this chair and it doesn't have the knob any more. The foot rest is fastened and loosened by turning the whole foot rest around the pole. It is pretty stable so far.

Make sure your setting is showing a number on each display window-accomplish this by turning the knobs, if you don't set it on a number it will not stay down. Other than that I have no clue for repairs !

Make sure you have the disk/flange underneath the base seated correctly. Once it is seated you should be able to tighten it up and it won't move any more. From time to time we have to tighten ours up after a month or two of play. Hope this helps.

Turn the big knob on the underside of the chair. Also, the spring loosens up over time.

Both the loveseat and the couch recline (not rock) to almost a laying flat position but unless you adjust backwards on the seat it wont stay locked flat. Also my first one had a defect and they came and picked it up and delivered a new one for free. With my prime membership

I wasn't able to do it either (am a senior citizen female). Finally asked my neighbor but he too struggled to get it to stay together. Suggest going back to the manufacturer for clearer instructions.

There are screws with nuts on the inside you can reach if you turn the couch on it's back. Tighten the nuts from there, should be good (make sure the screw is screwed in the arm enough)

did you unfold it and let it sit for a couple of days? this helps to let it rise before you sleep on it....you can stand it in a closet if you are cramped for space

I had a little trouble at first too, but now I have the hang of it. You have to bring the backrest portion all the way forward and then back slowly. You will hear it clicking. You may have to do if a few times before it locks in place. It took me a while to get it right, now I get it first try.

I used a bar to force everything down to get it into place. Don't be afraid to muscle it. Everything should come together. Loosen everything up and try again.
