How stiff is the tilt tension? I'm about 150lbs, will this tilt easily and stay tilted back or does it require constant pressure to stay tilted back?

You can tilt it as far as you want then lock it in that position. It tilts easYou.

Yes, the tilt is adjustable. It will go up and down or at whatever angle you need.

You just pull very firmly. I was a little scared to break it or that the tilt ability didn't work, but it's actually easy if you just pull very firmly. The vertical bars will unlatch from the mount & then you can adjust how far forward you want to tilt the tv.

We have never had a problem with any weight causing it to tilt. We have had large groups with as many as 14 people around the table and this has carried ALL the food nicely. Everyone loves it. I think some were even going to order one after seeing ours. Of course you need to counter heavy weight with some balance opposing, but the idea is to enable everyone to spin the item they want to within reach. I recommend it highly. This is the largest one we could find, and we love it.

Right, most of the time I use a person to hold it for me. It is impossible to tilt it beyong I'll say 15 degree or so.Hopefully it will answer your question.

It doesn't tilt much. It goes from horizontal to about 45 degrees down. I doesn't tilt up.

It tilts about 30 degrees when secured at any height. I noticed that some answers are contrary to this, but mine tilts within this range and maintains the position.

I have noticed a very very slight tilt. It's only noticeable if I pull my feet off the ground and lean the chair all the way back. If I do that it will start to spin very slowly. I figured that it was due to the fact that I lean it pretty heavy anyways and I am 6'4" and 350lbs, so not a little person. Other than that the padding and stitching and everything else is still in fantastic shape. I have only had it for 6 months but I spend probably 12+ hours a day in it.

I purchased this chair for a co-worker who is under 300#. I weigh about the same as you...and I tried it out. It felt comfortable, AFTER the warehouse staff made some adjustments. My main concern would be the "tilt" feature. It kept feeling like the chair was slanting forward and going to dump me out in the floor...not a good feeling! I purchased a chair by the same company (also from Amazon) that was made for up to 500 lbs. This has been a great chair for me. I have not had any problems with it. It feels really secure.

Mine can definitely tilt. It sounds like yours is either defective or the hinge is just really tight! (some pictures for proof: http://imgur.com/a/MAN8L )

Yes the tilting bracket is very stiff. I believe this to prevent mirror from easily changing on its own or from a mild bump. Unless you have more than one user I found once set I don't change mine. I would suggest if you need to move yours more often try lubricating the pivot area with shampoo or liquid soap and adjust slowly with equal pressure on both sides of mirror.

No it doesn't tilt. Sturdy in one place. There are a lot of holes for the legs - it made my tv very tall which I like because I have a low table.

Yes, it does have a tilt feature. Also, you can adjust the tension on the tilt feature. It ranges between easily tilting to not tilting at all.

I've slid down it several times. I am about 150-160. I didn't have any problems from an incline of about 3.5 feet. If I were pushing upwards of 180-220, I'm not sure I'd get it without some central support.

It does tilt a little bit, mabe only between 5-10 degrees but it does tilt, at least the one I just got.

Yes, it does tilt. The height is set during installation based on your height.

Hey there. Can you confirm for me that the base on the 750 does "not" tilt? From what I have read the base on the 650 does tilt. Thanks.
