can chair be used without the footrest (so feet can touch the floor)?

Yes. It is just like a lazy boy chair in that you do not have to recline it.

The footrest is part of the reclining position and automatically lifts when reclining. When in normal sitting position the foot rest is not operational.

I suppose if you removed them, however it may make it difficult to sit in because as the chair reclines the position would be very uncomfortable.

Not positive but most chairs have interchangeable items. I used the footrest on a chair of different manufacture. I would try it!

Yes, you could use it without the footboard, but you would need a different bed frame. The one that was delivered has very pronounced ends which would not be recommended without the footboard. Bobby Garrick

Yes. You have to use the floor. If you don't you don't have any bottom support.

The feet remain somewhat planted, but you still can bounce your foot if you like. However, since the chair is bouncy itself and you can adjust the tension of the spring to make it more or less bouncy. That might mitigate some of the foot bouncing habit.

No. Metal touches floor directly. You would have to place the items on an area rug to protect the floor. My floors are carpeted and it's take a little extra effort to reposition the chair. It's a lovely set. Putting rubber foot guards on the legs will detract from the beauty. I hope you can work something out.

There are no foot rests built into it however you can deflate the ball a bit and bring it down that way or you can get a step stool and put it in front of the chair.

The chair requires some assembly so you do not have to put the foot rest on. Not sure if that will affect the sturdiness of the chair though. Maybe contact the manufacturer to be sure it's safe.

The seat itself can be adjusted and raised from its position. However the footrest cannot be raised as I thought it would. There is another model that allows the footrest to be raised separately...I wish that I had purchased the latter myself.

Yes, they can be used without the cushion they are super comfortable with or without the cushion.

I sent this chair to a friend in another state so I'm not sure but My guess would be no. I have seen chairs where the you can raise the legrest without reclining but never the opposite. I can tell you that she had trouble with the frame of chair and I asked her to return it for a replacement but she declined. The lift mechanism works fine.

Yes. The footrests are individually adjustable in all three dimensions. They can also be folded out of the way and removed simply and easily. If a wheel chair is needed, it's hard to imagine a better one.

Yes this can be assembled without the armrest . The armrest comes separately and has to be assembled onto the chair seat so it's your choice.

The feet are made of the same plastic as the chair and could possibly scratch a floor. I believe you could glue felt on if you would like

Can the wheels be removed to be a stationary chair, or would that scratch the floor?
