Do the chair backs tilt back a little or are they straight up and down? I need a small amount of tilt for my back. Thank you

Yes they do tilt back slightly--they are my favorite chairs because they are so comfortable. The chair backs are designed with that angle, and in my opinion that was the trickiest part of putting the chairs together (overall the chairs went together quite easily, and after a year I still love them and would buy them again in a heartbeat.)

I reviewed some of the answers, and it was mention that they tilt back slightly. The ones I have they are straight up and down and do not tilt at all.

id say they really are pretty straight up and down. the tilt is very slight but they are very comfortable.

Yes they tilt a little. We love this set. We weren't sure about the quality, but have been very impressed with everything about this set.

No they do not tilt and they aren't very comfortable. They provide little support for the people using them as headrests.

The chair is for an average sized adult. I bought 2 of these for my living room. They do recline back far enough to be an a slight incline, but not so far that you'll tip over like some recliners.

Yes. I was going to say that they're flush with the back if the chair, but they actually go a little bit behind the back. I'm on week 9 of owning this chair and I like it more every day. I spend about 35 hours a week in it.

I was surprised mine leaned back. Usually these simple computer chairs don't do that. It doesn't lean back to the point I fall though. Check knob underneath and turn one way, lean back, then turn the other way and lean back. If that doesn't fix it, retighten all screws with allen wrench. Still doesn't work then something is faulty.

arms go in / out and up / down ... don't pivot ... tilt does lock ... seat does adjust back / forth ... great chair ... very comfortable ...

We are satisfied with the chair in all respects except that it is showing some wear on the edges of the back. Maybe my husband is running into the edge of the desk & causing friction to the material. Don't notice any tilting.

The headrests do tilt. They're less tight than factory headrests though; a gentle push moves them.

My recliner actually was in a constant tilted position. When I would rock, I literally felt like I was falling completely backwards. So in my opinion, yes it reclines way too much. We trashed it after just two months.

Hi. The chair does tilt back from the base but the back does not recline. All in all this chair is not great, but is ok for $70 bucks or so.

I think they're great chairs! I have them at my counter and they are used by adults and children. Not sure why the "no back support" comment, I think they're comfy for all wood :)

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 chairs have wonderful cushions - very comfy and sturdy. They do swivel. They rock but not as much as a true rocking chair - yet they rock adequately.

It tilts farther than I need it to when adjusted to fully tilt. I cannot say exactly how far, but I do not have a problem with the adjustment or the amount of tilt. The biggest problem with the chair is that it is a little narrow for some people. The armrests touch your thighs if you are large.

Patricia, these seat doesn't tilt. The back of the chair tilts back against spring tension. Very comfortable. I would buy another one! Steve

Yes, they do lean back but not all the way like a regular recliner and we are happy with the unit.
