Trying to assemble and the swivel doesn't swivel. I see a plastic ring between the 2 plates, does it stay?

I looked at the metal swivel on my chair and could not see any plastic ring. However, the cloth on the seat is tearing on the front. Really poor choice of fabric for seat.

no swivel other than in the axial direction around the threads when mounting it.

This is for you! The base stays put while the top swivels. I like this product a lot and recommend it, especially for older, heavier television sets (which I will not get rid of - who needs HD or 3D?). Hope this helps you decide!

You will need to adjust the tension in the arms where they pivot. You should be able hold one part of the plastic ring and turn the other. This should loosen/tighten depending on what direction you turn it.Edit - Mine is very smooth and easy to move. Anyone could do it. You may not have to hold part of the plastic but turning that does change the tension.

Mine just comes apart easily, in fact it falls off if I lift up the metal part. Maybe because it's old. Sorry I can't be of more assistance.

The base does not swivel. I mounted it on the wall. The wall mount swivels.

The two that we purchased were assembled by my husband. One for myself and one for a friend and both just went together per instructions and do not wobble. Sorry I can't help you.

I got a plastic dish with a base - and the lazy susan turned as it was supposed to. Not sure if that means bearings but it worked. The 2 pieces were assembled together I didn't have to do anything to make it work.

I am sorry but we never attached the stand so don't know if it swivels or not.

Yes, ours leaned back but I just adjusted it slightly (heard a little "pop") and now it's sitting straight and swivels nicely. I think maybe we didn't get the screws properly threaded in the stand initially.

No. Not at all. You put several screws in that hold it very still and stable. No swiveling at all.

Actually, there must be something extraordinary taking place. I am using the clamp as you mentioned and it is a relatively tight fit without a lot of wobble. There is supposed to be a brass/bronze bushing in the hole in the clamp, if it is no there then it would be very wobbly. Hope this helps.

It can swivel but the ring around it tightens so you can adjust it to any position you want then tighten it up so it wont move again until loosened

It's been long enough now that I don't remember if I had to force this or not, but I don't remember having to do that. I remember mine assembling very easily. Hopefully you've got it working okay by now. Good luck!

I ran into the same issue. After I got the rest of it tightened, I laid the whole thing down horizontally, undid the screws that were holding those two L & R legs, made sure the leg pieces were then flush, and put the screws back in. This time, with the whole thing horizontal, it was much easier to screw the screws/bolts together. And I had to get it SUPER tight before it wasn't wobbly. But it did eventually work great. Hope this helps!

It's locked in place. Twist the green ring until it snaps out of the lock position, then it should move up and down for you :)

Mine came fully assembled so I'm sorry but I can't help you. Maybe you should contact the seller and ask. I believe the metal thing is a clamp that you can use to clamp the unit to the edge of a table or counter top.
