Does the back of the chair pivot?

Not sure what you mean by pivot, but it does not lean back. It does however, move from side to side.

The back is rigid. I don't know to answer the other question. It would depend on the chair. My experience with it continues to be the best I have ever tried.

No it does not. In fact I do not like the way this Chair reclines at all . The lever is on the wrong side for a right hand stylist. And the lever is tucked under the chair where it is very hard to get at. I liked the price, but now wish I had paid more for a better chair. The color is not red it is bright orange. Clista

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!

The back-rest leans backward, but the seat portion does not lean back with the back-rest. There are three basic controls on the chair. One raises or lowers the height, another locks/unlocks the seat-back for leaning, and another allows the seat portion to adjust forward/backward. The arm-rests also can be adjusted up or down.

The back does tilt, and can be locked by "pushing" the side bar in to the mounting of the chair, though there may still be about an inch you can tilt the chair back. Most office chairs are exactly the same.

No, it does not, however, my husband had no problem with it. Only takes a little time, he loves the chair. So very comfortable and attractive and well built.

The chair is able to lean back but keep in mind that this chair is very inexpensive, and you get what you pay for. The leaning mechanism is put together by a spring and a lever with only two settings, "On" or "Off". The chair will always be returned to its default upright state due to the spring mechanism so if you want to lean back, you'll need to utilize some muscle.

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 goes all the way back or as far back as a recliner would and has an infinite number of positions in between. Chair is somewhat small, not intended for a bigger person.

Yes, the chair has 360 degrees swivel. The chair was for my granddaughter. I sat in it for only a minute and I would say tilt back is minimal.

It does have tilt, the pivot point is located directly about center of chair base. The tilt tension controls rate and ease with which chair reclines to different weight and strengths of users. The back reclines at a 2 to 1 ratio to the seat. Chair can tilt freely or lock in five positions.

No, it does not. Difficult to assemble, wrong pieces. If we did not have a person who had considerable skills at adapting and reconfiguring, we would have to have sent back one of the chairs.

No. The chair just adjusts to your back leaning against it. For a basic office style chair it is hard to beat. I've had it for about 4 months now and still think it is a good solid chair for the price.

Good question, it can lock in an upright position so there is no tilting back but there is not the option of moving it past the upright position and tiling it any more forward. Hope that helps! It is a very comfortable and durable chair.

Sorry, I am not sure. The chair does recline. For the money, it is a great chair.

If you mean, "can it be set so it does not lean back at all." yes. It has a locking mechanism that can be engaged to prevent the chair from leaning back.
