How sturdy is this? Can you lean back on it as if it's an office or folding chair, or will that break something?

Its a good piece of steel so it'll hold you pretty firmly. I don't think I'd recline on it but I don't feel the least bit insecure leaning back on it.

Very rugged and very adjustable{upand down,in and out} I bought this to reto fit it onto a nice pneumatic stool with a footrest that I play guitar on . Simply screwed the bracket into the bottom of the stool and screwed 2 2hole electrical pipe clamps over the bracket, on on each side of the adjuster knob. very sturdy and can be removed out of the bracket in 2 seconds for transporting to gigs. Really don't like sitting on drum thrones to play guitar. Too low, no footrest.

I find it to be very sturdy. It does not lean back as an office chair would but it is not meant to. Its purpose is to provide support for your back which it does very well. One of the best purchases I have ever made for my drumming and bad back.

It's sturdy enough to lean against but, not to put your full weight against.

Hello Robert Ali! This chair will support up to 350 lbs. I hope this helps. Thank you for choosing OfficeMax!

It is very sturdy. I have even moved the table it was on while DJing with little to no sway. As for comfort it depends on the table you are setting it on. The angle it holds it at would put the keyboard of most laptops at an angle similar to a normal desktop keyboard propped up on it's back risers. I think it's fine.

Its sturdy ,you can add a block of wood underneath for support. Place in the center should not be visible.

They don't recommend sitting on it unless all 3 sections are folded up. It is very sturdy though, and I have out several objects on it in the closed (unfolded) position that weighed 25-50 pounds, and it hasn't really flexed. I am extremely happy with this product.

The back is adjustable, and the chair can rock. However, I would not advise you to buy this chair. I used it for a while, however, after the while, the shape of the chair started to change. If you are planning to use a chair often, I would advise, that you should look at ikea, or office depot

It is a very sturdy chair. I have seen someone close to that weight regularly use the chair, butI am not sure if it would work for you.

This is an "occasion chair" used when you occasionally have company. It really needs to be on a hardwood or tile floor and is not as heavy as some I have sat on. Not for everyday use as an office chair. It is light duty and would not stand up to heavy use. Leaning or tilting forward would eventually end in damage because it is already wobbly on top. The leather is soft and I have no complaints. The base and upright need to be heavier to make it feel more stable. Ron N. Arizona

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!

It's pretty sturdy...not flimsy at all. I don't know exactly how much weight, but we've put a desktop computer on it plus tons of books with no bend or bowing of any kind. This is easily the most sturdy work desk I've ever owned.

It seems pretty sturdy. Anything under 200 lbs would barely make an impression my daughter and I sometimes sit on it at the same time (220 or so) and it doesn't seem any worse for wear.

It feels very sturdy. I've never worried about the weight it could hold. I've known 2 people to be able to sit on it at once, so probably at least 300 pounds?

I have not found it to be weak or flimsy, but don't know if I would use it as a chair.

The back is really supportive, can lean for comfort and not feel like it will snap, tear or break.Have not been in a situation yet where we did not have a place to hook the bottom of the chair so can't answer that.

It is certainly sturdy enough to sit on for extended periods. My wife used it and never complained about comfort sitting. However, I do not recall if she ever sat on it for 30 minutes straight. She did like using it better than using a wheel chair.
