Does anyone know if you can lock the swivel chairs, so that they do not rock? like the option on a office chair?

no....they don't lock for that price. They are on manual. But, I love my chairs and I'm thinking about getting clear plastic tie on cushion covers so I can leave the chairs out in the rain. Plastic covers wipe off and dry off sooooo fast that they'll be dry before you even need them.

The chairs rock on a piece of metal that acts as a spring. This is how the seat is mounted to the base. Without reconfiguring the way the seat mounts, you can not prevent them from rocking.

No....for that price you are on manual. But I love my chairs. I'm thinking about getting plastic tie on seat covers so I can leave them out in the rain. The moisture dries off before you'll ever need them.

Short answer is NO. We've had these for more than a few months.....the chairs get moved all of the time, and we have seen no problems. Considering the cost I feel this is a true bargain!

No, the chair doesn't allow rocking when the foot support is extended. It does, however, still allow you to rotate the chair on its base.

I don't know if you can disable the rocker but it does NOT rock when reclined

We like the chairs, they do lock in place and are very stable and nice looking too.

Yes and no. The chair doesn't squeak but the arms do. They work themselves loose overtime. No big deal. Remove rubber stopper, tighten with included hex, and problem goes away. I suppose I could use some thread lock, but I haven't gotten around to it.

No, they don't lock, but it shouldn't roll away. I also would not use it as leverage to stand up. It's still the best table I have bought out of the last 3 or 4.

I use them as office chairs. I suggest treating them with scotch guard as one of the previous customers mentioned.

I flipped the hinge on mine so that it would not rock backward at all. Very comfortable computer chair but the catch is that your computer desk must be extremely low. I was using an adjustable shelf system (like the kind used in those expensive closet organizer systems from elfa) as a desk surface so I was able to bring my desk down to accomodate. Without the adjustable height desk this chair would NOT otherwise work for PC gaming.

Actually, they are quite wobbly..and even worse on carpeting. Cosmetically they are very nice chairs...but IMO if you have a few drinks with these being as wobbly as they are, Id be careful....I would not seat someone over 200 lbs in them...they don't seem too sturdy...

In this chair on the backrest or Rear backrest, no movement to different positions independently. If as part of their benefits brings a lever that is safe for the backrest or back support fixed maintained. This lock can be disabled and the chair can be tilted backwards in a short slope. It's like rock you back when sitting.

Yes, It has a locking knob on each side of the chair. You can tighten them and stay in the upright position. We have had them 6+ months and are very happy with them. No problems at all.

Ours gives you option to keep straight or swivel. Love it! Very sturdy well built foe the price!

You have to be careful when securing the seat cushion so that the chair stays square. Tight turning travel on some of the Allen screws ( 1/4 turn, reset wrench, etc.). But overall, not too difficult.
