When you are sitting are you on your sit bones. Does this chair correct it and can you adjust how far you can move forward on the seat to do that?

For the money this chair I think is good and you can adjust your height which changes the angle of the seat as well. I have had this chair since last November to see if I would like this kind of chair and I will never go back to a regular office chair. My shoulders and neck do not get tight like they use to.

This chair is adjustable in height by using a threaded piece between the seat and base. The seat is padded very well. The weight is divided between your seat and your knees, so your rear doesn't bear all the weight. It also keeps your spine erect so your back is comfortable. The seat is also tilted forward so to transfer your weight forward. And it's easy to move since it's on casters. It is more comfortable than a standard "office" chair.

I found it comfortable to sit on for very short durations. Anything over 15 minutes and it was uncomfortable on my knees. My body geometry might be different than yours so I can't say how it'll work for you.

Yes, the chair is adjustable, but in an up/down motion rather than forward/back. The adjustment alternates the pressure from your hips/tailbone to your knees. I found that adjusting it to the extreme puts too much pressure on the knee and so mine is set to a middle position, allowing me to both sit and kneel at the same time. If you have sensitive knees, you may need to add additional cushion to the knee pad as it is quite thin.

The FORWARD lever on the right will raise or lower the seat. If it does not, your chair may be defective. Good luck.

I bought this chair for my husband and he loves it! It is a very comfortable chair. It has a lock mechanism if you want to lock in a certain position when tilting it backwards. Or you can leave it "unlocked" which makes it have like a spring rocking motion while sitting in it. As for tilting forward, not really sure what you are asking. If you want to tilt backwards, like I say it has a button to "lock" in place and you can also 'unlock" it to sit more forward. It does have about 4 or 5 adjustments for the lumbar support. My husband thinks it is a great chair for the price. I hope we have helped answer your questions.

Yes, it has forward and back tilt controls. You can use them to put the chair forward so that it doesn't go back, or back so it doesn't go forward. Or you can have them off, allowing tilt whenever you lean back. Then you'd use the tension control knob on the right side to your liking. I change the settings all the time depending on what I'm doing.

The seat is fixed in position. It is adjustable forward and backward but not after assembly. The adjustment is for weight balance. You can purchase a swivel with position stop if you need to have a swivel. I have the same thoughts but will wait until after my break-in session.

Adjust it the way u like it! I have mine so my seat is just above my hip bone

The seat does adjust in height. It's not really for sitting on though. You put a knee on the cushion and scoot with the good leg. I did use it to sit on for a short time while waiting for someone to pick me up, for example, however that is an unsteady option that I would advise against.

This depends on your sense of balance. I'm 5'10". The seat moves around and there is slight movement up and down so you have to bear that in mind. Your legs and back are active, and this forces your spinal column to be as balanced as possible, ensuring proper posture. There is virtually no way to slouch, or sit unbalanced on this seat. I like this chair, but at times I just want to flop down into something and this doesn't work for that, so I will occasionally swap it out for my old office chair.

The seat does has some forward/backward adjustment but it's not a lot. I would say about 4 inches side to side. It does have a good range about a foot up and down adjustment.

Ummm well, how to describe.... Just secure it to the base, or anything that you can hook it to. The "leg"of the seat. It may end up restricting moving seat forward or back if you need to. But most time I personally don't move my seats much. If you do move it, then you can adjust straps again. Hope this helps?

in my opinion, you're half way between sitting upright and reclined. if you scoot your backside forward in the sling (chair) you're more reclined...if you position your backside more towards the center/back, you'll sit up more. our chair doesn't hang and look like a seat like the picture does. if you saw it, it just looks like a blue thing hanging in a heap, but then again, we don't use the pillows. maybe that helps to define it more? regardless, i enjoy sitting in it.

It definitely IS adjustable; if yours isn't you're either doing something wrong or the mechanism is defective. I've had two of these chairs - the mechanism has not been a prob.

No. The only movement there is, is the seat height adjustment. I'm sitting in it now and tried to tilt it back and it's comfortably rigid. Hope this helps!

Hello R. Grimmett,I checked and the back rest of the chair does not lean forward or backward. It is stable. The entire chair moves up and down and spins around, but otherwise the parts do not move separately. You can lean back in the chair, but the back is connected to a sturdy frame and is not lose and flimsy.

This chair only has one reclining position. It will not recline far enough for you to have your legs above your heart. Hope this answers your question.

The "Back" of the chair will adjust up and down maybe 1-2 inches but is stationary to the seat of the chair (i.e. does not move back by itself). Now the seat does tilt back or reclines back (i.e. seat and back recline together). I hope that makes sense and helps.

Are you sitting in the chair while you pull up on it? The weight of sitting on the chair will allow you to move it up or down and adjust to your liking.
