Is the seat back reclinable? or the whole chair leans back only?

Everything about the chair is completely unreliable. It's truly a worthless back - breaker and the wood breaks easily...definitely in the top five worst economic decisions I have ever made.

The seat actually tilts. The seat and the backrest are fixed in relation to each other. When you lean back, the backrest goes back and the seat part tilts up to stay with it.

It tilts back if you lean back. It's not a full recline. The bar locks it upright if you don't like the feature.

The chair will recline to just a slight incline. I've bought the chair to take to the beach and take it often and it's a wonderful investment. The leg rest works easily and is very comfortable. I get asked often where I purchased this chair.

Marlene,You can lean back on it like a regular chair but I dont use it too much because I am working on my posture.

Yes, it does recline all the way. I find it to be a comfortable chair, but not as comfortable as lazyboy chair recliners. Although, I love it quite a bit.

It doesn't fully recline. The top can be flipped over if you don't want it. Love the chair. You can easly carry it too. I took it to South Carolina Myrtle Beach. It would rain on and off,then the sun would come out, I put the top up when it rained. It was great!

The chair doesn't recline, and the back has very little give, just the natural flex of the chair's frame. It's a comfortable chair, but with one major flaw, at least in mine: It tends to lower itself, often with no one in the seat. There must be a leaky valve in the piston. It's very annoying.[After reading the other answers, I wonder if there are two models of this chair: The adjusting knob on mine seems to do nothing at all. I've tried it tightened all the way, loosened all the way with no difference.]

You just lean back with a little bit more pressure than you would leaning against it normally, and it moves the way it should. The back goes back while the front of the seat comes up a bit too (very comfy for putting your feet on your desk if you feel like it). There is also a lever on the side that will lock that function, preventing you from being able to lean back in the chair.

The chair does lean back a bit. We bought for a friend w/back problems & he said that you do not want one to sit straight if you had back issues. I will ask him for an update as we gave for a Christmas gift.

No. The back of the recliner is one peice and only reclines or sits upright.

The chair moves in one motion, so no you cannot separately recline the back or feet.

The entire chair reclines. Meaning the back support hinges back, at the same time the foot rest raises. Other than that, there is no secondary adjustment. I hope this helps.

It can be set to completely upright or to lean back. I prefer the straight backed chair, so I have it completely upright. There is lumbar support, which I need for my lower back and it is ideal.

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.

Yes it does recline all the way back so that one person could sleep on it, however it is not very wide and could fall backward if not balanced correctly.
