Can this chair lean back? If so, does it have a locking mechanism to prevent it from leaning back AND have a way to lock in a leaned back position?

Hey Ryno, the chair does lean (a pretty stiff lean unlike some floppy office task chairs), and can lock to prevent lean. It cannot, at least as far as I can tell, lock at any particular lean point.Hope that helps! All aside though, its been 6 months or so since purchase and I still love mine... very nice look/feel for the price!

No it doesn't have many adjustment functions, might want to consider something else

Yes, the chair can be leaned back. You can lock the chair upright so it will not lean back. It will not lock in a reclined(leaned back) position.

No, it does not lock. You can adjust the height setting to make it easier to balance your weight. I would imagine it would be quite dangerous to have a locking position.

Yes, it will lean back. It has three positions you can lock it in (full upright/approx 15 degrees/approx 30 degrees) or leave it unlocked and use the spring tensioner for support.. The tension on the seat-back mechanism is enough to give some support and will also assist you when you wish to return to full upright. The locking mechanism is easily accessed and works well. At 230 lbs and 6ft tall I am able to use this chair with confidence.

This chair cannot be locked while reclining. It can lock, however, in the upright position to prevent reclining.

I bought this chair for my husband and he loves it! It is a very comfortable chair. It has a lock mechanism if you want to lock in a certain position when tilting it backwards. Or you can leave it "unlocked" which makes it have like a spring rocking motion while sitting in it. As for tilting forward, not really sure what you are asking. If you want to tilt backwards, like I say it has a button to "lock" in place and you can also 'unlock" it to sit more forward. It does have about 4 or 5 adjustments for the lumbar support. My husband thinks it is a great chair for the price. I hope we have helped answer your questions.

I own a "ball chair" that does this. I bought one with a back which I don't like b/c I lean back too often defeating my good posture.

Hello, According to the manufacturer, push the lever inward so the chair will not lean back. If you need anything else, please let us know. Thank you.

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.

You can lock it into place or you can release the latch and lean back - If you are considering buying this chair, know that the wheels break - I bought two of the chairs and the wheels broke on both. Just order yourself a good set of replacement wheels....not a big issue. The chair is very nice and has held up well. I have one of home and office and get compliments almost daily. I hope this helps.

No, there is not a lock but the chair is quite heavy and requires some amount of force to swivel. You cannot sit and swirl around freely. The chairs are very substantial and sturdy.

Yes, it locks. That way the person can sit down on it without it rolling away.

No, it does not lock, however, when in the "A" position and fully inverted, the table back will not move. Your body weight will prevent it from righting itself. It should be plenty stable for most exercises.

It does lean back but is not a recliner. It is a comfortable chair and perfect for a small office space.

The chair does not tilt back...or if it does, I have yet to discover that feature. I should mention that it comes with very inadequate instructions. Even those for putting it together were pretty useless. Fortunately, it isn't all that difficult to work out anyway. And there is no other information included. So there might be a feature I missed. OTOH, it's a very comfortable and good looking chair and I'm pretty happy with it.

The chair will lean back with a spring tensioner. You may also diable the recline feature by locking the lever under char.

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.
