It is really easy to roll while sitting on it and I work on a L-shaped station too without any problems.

The wheels do not swivel. You have to lean back and pull up on the handle to turn. That is the downside although it wasn't that difficult and I used it at my job for 14 weeks. I have to walk around a lot while at work. The upside of this model is that it is very stable. It won't tip over. I had more control with this model.

You will be happy with this purchase, the wheels on here are like on a rolling chair, it should roll very nice.I hope this helps, oh and use glue when putting this together sometimes the top gets loose and you have to reinstall.

Rock... well its not a rocking chair. Its built well over all, no backward motion in it if that is the question. As for extended use - I added another seat cushion, though for most that probably wouldn't be necessary. The extra cushion also adds a bit more height to the chair as I like to keep my workstation KB and Mouse platform a bit higher than the work table. Ive sat in it for hours a a time with no adverse issues... as I said in my rating description... love the chair! if you get one that doesn't have the seat back locking problem - I think most anyone would be very pleased ~~

Easy answer. No. It is a very sturdy tractor style seat that rotates with you as you work. You can also adjust the seat height by spinning the seat. I'm a pretty big guy, and I've had no problems with rocking or bending.

It didnt roll when I sat, but was very uncomfortable and stiff. I also ordered the Trainers Choice brand from Amazon and love it!!!. Hope this helps. Let me know if you would like to know anything else.

Two wheels lock tightly enough to prevent unnecessary movement, but if you push it hard enough, it will slip just like a table without wheels. Ya' gotta use a little common sense. If you unlock the wheels, it rolls nicely as long as you steer it where you want it to go. That's good for parking the table out of the way when you don't need it, but not for rolling with food on it. It's not a serving cart.

I didn't roll down but it was very tight and stiff. There are two rods on the sides that hold the leg straight, which is not what I needed. I wanted it for arthritis pain. If you want mine I'll send it to you.

I have wheels on all three of my units because it helps to roll so smoothly. I felt under the wheels, and it appears to be a circular bottom, as opposed to the square top. There is a circle of rubber, going around the bottom of each leg. If you plan to move it around often, the wheels are the way to go.

I have had no problems rolling it up. It might be challenging for someone with arthritis in their hands. Basically, you lay it out flat in the closed position, and then fold it in half in the long direction. You then roll it up tightly at this half-width, starting from the foot, keeping the bag folded and square as you go. At the top there is a built-in strap arrangement, using black cord, to hold the bag in its rolled-up position. It consists of a loop of cord on one side, fastened at each corner of the half-width of the bag, and a single cord with a plastic hook on it at the other side, centered on the half-width. The idea is to pull the middle of the loop around in one direction around the outside of the rolled-up bag, and then engage the hook in it from the other side. This creates a Y-shaped fastening that keeps the bag rolled up. It took me a few tries to figure out how this was supposed to work when I first got the bag, but it's not too hard to figure out. Pay attention to how it is rolled up when it arrives. The important thing is to roll the bag tightly and keep it square (even), rather than letting the bag edges slop out and roll up unevenly. keeping it tight makes it easier to fasten the cord. I know other people have complained about this arrangement in other reviews, but I don't have a problem with it. Alternatively a couple of short bungee cords would serve the same purpose of keeping the bag closed. I like the convenience of having the straps built in.

I would think it is easy to roll up, but would not try to fold it. You might need something like a strap or cord to hold it in place once it is rolled.

Yes quite easy. This one i bought for a 78 yo lady who rides my bus. The chair part and any part unfolds with ease, no struggling, no fighting with it just fold and go!

I unrolled mine and let it sit flat for a while. I roll it with working surface side out. It seems that with use it seems to stay very flat for me. Others have said to slightly dampen the surface under it so it doesn't slip and stays flatter? hope this helps)

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.

If the machine is set to the lightest resistance its more of an easy rolling sensation. I think your weight and the type of knee problem would be more of a factor.

I had 1 for 7 years and it's a little awkward to move but not that difficult, the base is round so you just tilt it and roll it to where you want it. or pick it up, both worked pretty well, there are some models with wheels on the base, never tried that. loved the chair.

It is very lightweight. It rolls fairly easily. You need to make sure to secure the unit together..it can pop out of place if not tightened. It is a nice, compact unit. I would not put anything heavy on it.
