will the seat swivel to the side to aid in getting a person out who needs to be lifted

Yes it does. There is a lever underneath the seat you can reach from the sitting position and pull up on it. I releases the lock and allows the seat to swivel 180 degrees.

Yes, with the top on it will serve as a seat unless the person is particularly heavy.

Unfortunately not. The only negative to it. There's a metal bar the lift rests on that would be very difficult to move to the other side of the table without messing things up.

The seat is screwed onto the base so when you swivel around in a circle, the seat will raise and lower. The small handle visible just under the seat in the picture is actually a lock to prevent swiveling. You don't have to use it if you want your seat to move, just be aware that the seat is wobbly if the lock is not applied.

Yes, this chair swivels all the way around... I love this chair! Just beware it is not built for people 300+ to fall into... had to replace mine b/c of my daughter in law ugh!!! Wonderfully comfy chair!

There is a piece of plastic that you have to lift to swivel, and then it locks part way around- takes a little practice but helps when you have trouble lifting yourself up from the stool. I also had handicap bars put in the shower to help lift myself up. I purchased this stool because it adjusts in height and my shower is so small there is no room for a large chair.

I doubt that .... the bar stool swivel is very "stiff/tight" and needs the weight of a person on it in order for it to swivel and even then the supplier advises that it takes time for it to loosen up.. there are other swivels made for something more like a lazy suzan

The seat does swivel independent to the base. We have absolutely no complaints.

No, but it swivels up and down to give some adjustment for people of differant heights.

No, it does not swivel - it if fixed. But it is lightweight and easy to move. Very happy with this purchase!

Yes it swivels, it is NOT fixed. Makes getting around very easy. Turns on a dime.

Yes it does, you can tilt it up and there are snaps to hold it more like a seat and you can turn it forward or rearward.

Yes. But the fabric sides are not a strong material, so don't expect to lift this and carry it with the load shown.

Yes. It does that, and the carrying arms can be lowered when not carrying a bicycle. It pivots in two places, at the top with the carrying arms, and also at the bottom so that the entire bike rack can tilt away from the lift gate and allow the lift gate to open.

Nope. It has to be pushed by someone, since the wheels are small unlike a regular wheelchair

the unit does not come apart when lifted. I don't know if it is heavy duty enough for use as swivel for a chair.
