Is it possible to sit in an upright position in this chair?

You can sit in an upright position, but because of the chair's shape you might not find an upright position comfortable after awhile unless you personally have no problem sitting like that for extended periods of time. I mainly use it for reading outside on my patio or just pure relaxation when the weather is nice. I hope my answer helped out a little bit.

No only when it is upright, chair is not very comfortable in upright position.

Yes you can. I just tried it before I posted this response. The chair is great other than the seat padding. It wears down really fast, but other than that I'm satisfied! I am very picky about my office equipment, and being on a budget, this was a good find.

I don't know the specific height, but its more than 8" for sure, and yes, you can sit upright in it. I like this chair a lot. As with all of them, be careful with the plastic snaps, as they get brittleafter a year or so fishing for 18 hours a weekend.

It does not sit completely upright, but I have certainly been able to converse with people sitting next to me in regular, upright chairs. The chair is so awesome that the people will not want to converse, they will want to take your spot in the chair :)

Yes, the seat is can be upright and almost fully recline. I love this stroller and highly recommend it. I love the breaks and all the vents. Awesome stroller!

Yes, this chair reclines to a laying down position with feet elevated. It is very comfortable.

You can but it is not very effective because it is at a straight upright position. The horizontal works very well.

it is possible to do it but it may be a hassle - you have to unscrew things, readjust it and rescrew it. it's not simple - we did a workaround to this exact situation by putting another, lower desk with a chair to the side of this. there are definitely units you can buy with a crank in the front to easily raise/lower them but they are much more expensive

I would think so. However this chair is not a fix for posture when sitting, It is still possible to slouch when sitting in this and old habits do set in.

The seat is a bit lower than normal seating, and can not be adjusted. This is a wonderful chair for the price and I am very pleased with it. I recommend buying a cushion if you need the seat higher.

I'm sorry but I did not try that before returning the chair .... there were no instructions in my package and I could not get it together all the way. It is a beautiful chair and worth trying....mine was just a fluke and because I was in a hurry I ended up getting a Posturepedic chair that Staples had just introduced in their store. They are approximately the same height and seat size and they put it together for me in store.

You can sit cross-legged and curl up in the chair. The extra material on top kind of turns hood-like once weight is put on the chair. Hope this helps.

Not separately, but you can sit upright with feet elevated if you stop it before it goes back.

Yes. The angle of inclination of the chair back is infinite between vertical and (almost completely) horizontal. What you CAN'T adjust - not a deal-breaker for me, but something to consider before purchase - is that there is no adjustment of the inclination of the SEAT. In other words, if you choose to adjust the back to a position somewhere between vertical and horizontal, you may find yourself slipping a bit. I love this chair, but not everyone will I'm sure. The only other caveats I've found in the month-plus I've had it are (1) the padding in the seat could be either firmer, or deeper, or both; and (2) the "foot" rest hits mid-calf on a person over six feet tall. You'll have to decide if either of these are deal-breakers FOR YOU.

Yes, the bowl can be shifted in more of an upright position - it is two pieces separate pieces so it can adjust. As you can probably tell, it will not be in a straight back type of position. II would say there is no support on the back from the chair itself. I hope that helps.

I have never tried it in the inclined position because I use it as my computer chair. Fortunately, I see that someone has given and excellent suggestion.
