I do not believe so the only lock I've found is the lock to prevent you from leaning back.

No. There isn't any locking feature that I'm aware of. But it won't swivel unless you make it so...shouldn't be a problem.

It does swivel. It raises and lowers easily. I don't think it locks in place. I'll try it tomorrow.

It can swivel if you want although idk why you would want it to do that. Might lead to unnecessary wear and tear

ITs a continuous recline. There is no way to lock the chair in one position other than balancing.

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.

Yes, It has a locking knob on each side of the chair. You can tighten them and stay in the upright position. We have had them 6+ months and are very happy with them. No problems at all.

The chair swivels 360 degrees. It does not return to the original position. Hope this helps.

It does swivel, but it is tight enough that if you set it straight, it won't move unless you exert pressure on it.

Not without destroying the bottom. It appears to me the swivel mechanism is between the bottom of the inside and the bottom outside.

Yes, you can adjust the head rest and lock it into place with the latch. I only used it a couple of times and so far, it seems to be a pretty good chair.I hope this helps;-)

No, no way to lock the wheels. If it's stationary, don't use the wheels at all. This thing is incredibly flimsy.

No, but it swivels down to the side of the chair. It is entirely out of the way if you do not want to use it.

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.

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!

No, you can not remove the swivel part. It is attached to the bottom board with no visible screws. The kit comes with a top and bottom board plus the four legs that you must attach yourself. I just didn't attach the bottom board which accomplishes the same thing (the legs just rest directly on my desk, no bottom board and thus no swivel). R. Sachs' answer is also a neat idea.

No, the wheels do not lock :) However, there is very little padding in the seat (I am sitting on it right now). So the first thing you might want to make is a cushion :)

There's no locking mechanisms when it comes to turning or swiveling - Thanks
