Does this chair have the "auto-lock" feature such that it can't glide unless you're sitting in it?

No it doesn't that I know of. You can lock it using the handle on the right side, but if you don't lock it it will still rock. The handle on the left is the recliner handle.

not auto lock but it does have a lock handle and is capable of locking into a stationary position

It does but not like a regular chair would. For the price it is very nice and comfortable though.

Yes the wheel chair has locking hand brakes. Just push them down and they lock, lift them to release or apply brakes that release when you release. The chair weighs about 20 pounds.

Yes it does. And you also can lock it while sitting in it so it does not roll. Forever Student

Yes to both questions. It also has a locking lever under the arm rests so you can lock the chair in several reclining positions.

It does not lock, but there is enough friction that it doesn't usually slide while typing.

There is a small ridge towards the front that would keep you from sliding out of the chair. It is very comfortable.

You can set it to lock or rock. It has a tension adjustment for rocking. This was a great chair for the money.

No, but the wheels aren't super loose so it doesn't really move much. And like I said, the wheels can only roll forward and back - not 360 degrees, like an office chair would. It's pretty stationary when opened and locked. To release and close up chair, you have to simultaneously hit the release button.

You can lock it into place or you can release the latch and lean back - If you are considering buying this chair, know that the wheels break - I bought two of the chairs and the wheels broke on both. Just order yourself a good set of replacement wheels....not a big issue. The chair is very nice and has held up well. I have one of home and office and get compliments almost daily. I hope this helps.

Answer 1 - Yes you can lock out the rocking motion by simply letting out your foot support. By pulling the lever back and reclining, the rocker stops. Question 2 - The chair came to me in a box, packaged safely to prevent scaring the leather. The back is not attached, but it slides easily into place and the latches 'click' when the back is secured. The chair is very light weight, and very comfortable. I have no reservations in recommending it to you

Yes, the wheels lock great. The hold in the middle is slightly smaller in my opinion but still is very functional. I think it is a great chair.

Technically, there is no lock, but once I set it in place it stayed put. There has been no sliding at all, it stays where I first put it.

Hi Katherine, does not lock but rigid and slow to turn so good support overall. Locking items usually cost three times as much.

No its locks into position once you open it all the way,seat being down is just necessary if you want to sit down

no, it does not lock in place. it is pretty stable/stays in place if you don't bump it.

No, it swivels but doesn't glide. Keep in mind that it is a recliner and not a glider with footstool. When the footstool is up you are leaning back a bit so it would be strange to rock at the same time.
