Can the chair rock freely as other chairs do when the lock out feature is released.

yes it can. The lever that lowers the chair height up and down, just push it in to lock, pull out to unlock.

You have to push back hard to make it rock. I don't like it to rock anyway because it is not good for my bad back. The chair is very comfortable and has good back support to help your posture.

No the wheels do not lock. I have found that the chair doesn't move much on carpet (if that's what you have) when seated.

The back will only recline on this chair when the foot rest is out. Otherwise you cannot push it back. It does rock (front to back like a rocking chair) when the feet are not up.

Hey Ryno, the chair does lean (a pretty stiff lean unlike some floppy office task chairs), and can lock to prevent lean. It cannot, at least as far as I can tell, lock at any particular lean point.Hope that helps! All aside though, its been 6 months or so since purchase and I still love mine... very nice look/feel for the price!

Yes - just have to make sure that the seat is locked in. They are nice chairs.

Yes, the current model does allow free movement of the base joint. In the original version, the base was fixed, so you will see older comments indicating a fixed base.

No, the break does not lock. I never found that to be a problem, but my condo was carpeted.

No, it does not rock on its own, you have to rock it manually. but it does vibrate.

It never locks. You have to support yourself until you are completely inverted. I wouldnt want it to lock. Might get stuck. I would suggest wearing work boots when locking your feet in. Takes the strain off your lower legs and feet. Much more comfortable too. All in all its pretty good for the price. Just make sure when flipping back up to stabilize yourself half way for about a 5 second count. Allow your blood to flow back into your head slowly.

Yes! Well the back tilts which simulates a rock. The lever on the side can lock it too!

No, as you can see in the picture, the stand of the cradle, like the suspension of a car, bends down when you pressure it down. The rocking motion is generated from that, and cannot be locked. But don't worry, the rocking motion is very, very gentle.

The wheels don't have locking mechanisms, but my chair is on a fairly thick rug and it doesn't move unless I really want it to. I had initially planned to leave the wheels off, but I wouldn't advise it unless you have some sort of protective barrier between the feet and the floor.

Yes. The chair lift/drop lever can be pushed in to lock the tilt mechanism.

I don't know if you can disable the rocker but it does NOT rock when reclined

It doesn't rock, just reclines. There is way to adjust or lock how far you want to recline too which is kind of annoying.

I have never tried to lock it down but to move it back-and-forth needs just a tiny bit of force to move it not a lot at all but you could pretty much keep it semi stationary as long as you are not moving your legs

There is a pull and twist pin that will either keep the rocking movement locked, or allow for continuous rocking. The pin handle is a little difficult to engage/disengage.
