Can I sit in my recliner and use - with the base next to the recliner instead of under it and will the top swivel over me?

You cannot. The table only moves forward or back over the base, it does not swivel. If it did, it would fall over.

Does not rock, reclines enough to be comfortable but not as much as a recliner. Swivels easily, a great TV recliner.I have 2, keep one at my lake house. I like. Charles C.

NO! This chair has a very big recline to it. You are almost laying down when just sitting in it. While it is comfortable, it is not the best chair for sitting upright. Not even in a living room setting. I actually had to make a new back cushion for it that made the chair a little more upright. Also, if you have carpet in the room, the chair will not rock. I tried getting a small thin rug for underneath to protect my wood floors, but the chair would not rock.

The table has a lever which allows it to be raised and lowered. The four wheel base is in aFixed positio. We keep the tray parallel with the bed. The base can wheel underThe bed, therefore putting the tray across the bed, however, the tray does not "swivel". We lookedForever for a swivel tray and bought this one. Our plan was to use it for our dad's recliner but foundThe base did not fit under the chair. The table is made of very sturdy and quality materials so we decidedHe could use it bedside inside.

Its not recommended for recliner because of the reclining part. There isn't enough room for the table to reach you when reclined. You could use it sideways but it depends on the height of your armrest. It is a great table, when sitting on a regular sofa, it reaches all the way to you even if you're sitting against the backrest.

It's not wobbly but I don't think it would work with your recliner. You have to always be sitting up right to use it.

It locks in the reclined position but you can still swivel with it, just not glide. You can push the foot rest back in with your legs when you want to get up like most recliners. You don't need to use the lever. It works like a normal recliner but you can swivel.

Not sure on your question ---but no it can not be positioned between half up or half down on this chair.,but the food rest does not come up that high. I do have another recliner (Lazy=Boy) that has 2 stops on the foot rest, but that one cost $600 and this one cost $300 so like the man said :you get what you pay for"---but there again I must say it was a pleasure doing busness with Amazon and the CO that made the chair as I had a little problem but it was taken care off with one phone call and a short E-mail ---It renews my confidence in the American market place.--Bill

No, feet are not higher than your heart when reclining.You can rock the chair and momentarily be in zero gravity.

I returned the item shortly after trying to do the same thing as you. It worked, but not very well. It did swivel, but the motion wasn't smooth like you'd prefer it to be. I don't believe it was a weight issue (I'm 5'9" 185 lbs), but rather a design issue. By design, the lazy Susan rotates on a perimeter ball bearing track...whereas a proper chair swivel "swivels" from a single point in the center. I found a number of web retailers that carried recliner chair swivels. Turns out, most chairs have a standard base design, so it was quite easy to swap out the feet on my chair with a swivel that fit perfectly. Now, instead of rotating on a track, the chair spins on an axis.

Measure the square base where the recliner sits on....some come with pre-holes in them for a aftermarket swivel....

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!

No it doesn't glide in the reclining position but it still swivels. If it's reclined there isn't really a need to glide since you're feet aren't on the ground to help move it.

I am not too sure of this as I have not reclined the chair as yet. I usually just sit in the chair in the upright posistion. I do like this chair and would buy it again.

It does not stay in place. As you recline in the chair it slips towards the rear of the arm. You have to keep adjusting it.I would not recommend it for any recliner.

The tray beneath the chair does slide out to sit beside you. I'm not sure about a tray that would go in front.

I have not tried the whole board while sitting my the recliner, but I have taken the removable panels and sat in my recliner. I usually balance the panel on a tray table. I hadn't thought of it, but I would think that if I put the recliner back it would be at a great angle to work with.
