I just bough this for Father's Day for my father, who lives in a different state. He is enjoying but doesn't think it reclines. Does it? How?

1. Make sure the two little rings of plastic under the arms are in the "unlocked" position, which is lifted up towards the armrest. When they are down toward the frame of the chair they lock the position in whatever incline it's currently in. 2. To recline: Put your feet on the foot bar at the floor. Push down and outward with your feet while you also lean back into the chair with your back. Your weight will slide this chair into a reclined position. 3. To go back to an upright position, lean forward and bend your knees to pull your feet back, like you would in a Barc-a-lounger.

Even if it's in the locked position it will recline if you really push, but you should do as suggested by other and turn the locking locking flanges to the unlocked position. This b rand of zero grav chair actually resists forward and back movement more than the original Lafuma chairs so once you're in a good position you sort of stay there, which I like. But yeah, hold the armrests, push with your back and the foot support raises as the back declines.

It does recline, you just have to be sure that the round circles under the arm rest are pushed up and not down because down locks it into a certain position. When he is sure they are pushed up, then you put your feet on the foot bar and push back and it recline to whatever position he likes and lock it into place.

It does recline. You just put your foot on the bottom bar and push back... dont push too hard or he will fall back. Then lock the position with the levers located beneath the arm rest... when getting off of chair, remember to unlock it if not you will hear a loud grinding sound.

Straddle it, lower your butt and sit. Lean back and take your weight off your legs. The chair should glide into a reclined position.

It will recline if the seat reclines. We have it slightly so his head doesnt flop forward

Interesting. My rear seats don't recline (they fold down). If yours actually recline then ... You can see the spot where it sits in the track to hold the shade, so I guess recline the seat and see if it extends beyond that. If you are referring to the seat folding down that is a different story.

It reclines nicely but not completely flat. Yes, it does stay in position. We are pleased with the chair.

The seat does recline. My grip with this stroller is that the front wheel is rigid and will not turn side to side.

It rocks & glides but doesn't recline. You can buy the matching ottoman to prop your feet on & get the same recline effect though.

I have read in some instructions about recline, but have not figured out how to do it. Sorry.

Hello. The chair does not recline all the way down. The ottoman does not swivel. It is sloped, so you get better support under the legs. A good chair for the money.

Yes with the seat rear facing it does not recline all that much. To me it always seemed more to do with the size of the seat being so large it really can recline much before it bumps into the seat in front of it.

It does NOT recline to full flat. Pulling the front bar out helps it to recline more tho. I put my newborn in it but it is very roomy as he is now 4 and still sits in it as a rocking chair. Hope this helps you!

No it doesn't recline but it's at a nice angle in both forward and rear facing. My children always took great naps in this seat and never looked uncomfortable. It's too large to recline.

I don't know how it could recline when it is up against the back of the seat....never heard of that.

no! When the foot rest comes up the back goes down slightly until the foot rest is all the way up then it reclines as far as you want it.

it can recline in different positions, for certain. It's also incredibly comfy.

There is a knob that controls the rate and ease of recline. You can also pull the seat height handle out for back tilting; you need to push it back in to lock the position.

It does not recline. It is very basic, but lightweight and portable. Great for airport travel.

Both the loveseat and the couch recline (not rock) to almost a laying flat position but unless you adjust backwards on the seat it wont stay locked flat. Also my first one had a defect and they came and picked it up and delivered a new one for free. With my prime membership
