my mother does not use the footrest,does the whole metal leg piece come off, not just the foot part,but metal part coming from the chair?

Yes, the whole metal piece that supports the foot rest at the bottom comes off. My mother doesn't use her foot rests either. They both come off real easy - there is a clip that you push and they pop off. Good luck.

Yes, the arms that comes down from the chair to the foot pads that fold up all come off.

Frequently my Mom (who I bought this for) does not use the foot rests either - the one that I purchased does allow us to take the foot rests off entirely. Hope that helps!!

Ida:The metal footrests come off simply be pressing a lever and lifting it off. Takes a minuite to remove both
995763
Yes. The entire footrest can be easily removed. In fact, I can do it myself from my chair if necessary
995764
Yes, the metal piece with the footrest comes off if you buy the removable or swingaway style. Hope this helps ;-)

Hi, Ida--I don't use the footrest either. Yes, the entire metal part that supports the footrests comes off for both legs, leaving just the chair and comfortable space for your legs. I'll add that I'm extremely happy with this chair all around. It's comfortable, lightweight, sturdy, and does its job well. I highly recommend it, especially for the price. Good luck!

Yes, the leg rests are remove able and the arm rest are too ... No tools required. Just click and pop off.

I checked with my mother, who uses the chair. She said that on each side of the wheel there is a separate lever. Push the levers down towards the wheels. This puts the brakes on. Pull back on the levers to take the brakes off. She never tried to adjust the foot rests.

The chair has a handle on the right side. You can't kick out the footrest with your legs. But you can close the foot rest with your legs.

Yes, as the legs are metal and have durable design, as I am over 200 and my husband is nearly 250, and it holds us just fine whenever one of us sits in it. The only thing I have noticed, as I have had mine for awhile, the stitching on the bottom of the back of the chair has starting coming undone. I just need to re-stitch it with strong thread to keep it from coming undone any more, but other than that, it has been great and used quite a lot, and still holds us just fine.

I'd say, "Yes, it's completely assembled" with the caveat that the leg portion of the chair is a separate piece that can be used or not and it hooks onto the front of the seat. It's two pieces; the chair and the leg rest.

I'm pretty sure you can't remove the foot rest. If I remember correctly I called the company when I first got the chair and they said you can't. The foot rest is too high for me so I stopped using the chair.

The legs are metal but foot rest is plastic. We use it to transport patients and have had no issues with the unit.

Yes the tray comes completely off. We have had this chair for almost 2 years now and we love it!

No, the footrest is not detachable. The forward legs do fold back and the forward end of the footrest folds down to the floor. A Roma Chair model would be your best choice.Let me know if you have any other questions, JimSandies Galley and More

The chair requires some assembly so you do not have to put the foot rest on. Not sure if that will affect the sturdiness of the chair though. Maybe contact the manufacturer to be sure it's safe.

No. Metal touches floor directly. You would have to place the items on an area rug to protect the floor. My floors are carpeted and it's take a little extra effort to reposition the chair. It's a lovely set. Putting rubber foot guards on the legs will detract from the beauty. I hope you can work something out.

I'm afraid you would find it very difficult to operate the leg and foot support. It takes a notable amount of strength to do so and there is a problem keeping the foot and leg support in the retracted position in this particular recliner.

Hi. If you need to take the legs off, you'd have to remove the metal that's attached to the headboard. The color is oatmeal/beige. The headboard is very pretty - I'm happy with it. Enjoy!

Yes, they both are easily removed. Each footrest sits on 2 pins and you just have to lift it up and off the pins. I remove them all the time to load the chair into my trunk.

I see others answered the question about the wheel locks. My mother uses the chair in a different state and is not in a position to explain the footrest. I recall from using it with her in November that the silver bars that hold the footrests go up and down into the red bars attached to the chair. I do not recall if there was a button or lever but they could definitely be extended.

Mine does not have leg rests, it only has the metal foot rests. Mine does not look like the one in the picture that shows here.
