Can it be locked while reclining?

There is a lever that says lock. When I push it in with the back upright I can feel it slip into a hole and the chair locks upright. When I push it in with the chair reclined I cannot find another hole, no matter what position the chair is reclined in.

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

No it cant be locked in a permanent recline position. Just the tightness as to how tough it is to recline can be adjusted.

Hi Catherine,I'm afraid not. The zero gravity chair is not intended for that. That said, these particular chairs are truly comfortable ones and when you recline all the way back they cradle your body in a way you just don't want to get up!

It can be locked in any position, hi, lo or anyplace in between. I keep it just high enough so I don't bump my head.

It has a lever on the right hand side that you turn down and it allows the chair to recline to any position. once you get it reclined to where you want it just pull back up on the handle and it locks the recliner in that spot.

Sorry about that. Mine also seems to stay "locked" only in the semi-reclined position. But I never fully recline it as I don't want that position. I use it for watching tv only. I do feel that the price and looks are worth every penny. I guess it depends on what one purchases it for. We purchased two and love them. We have limited space, needed the orange color, and wanted something attractive. They aren't over-sized, homely, and dowdy looking like most recliners.

It locks in the reclined position but you can still swivel with it, just not glide. You can push the foot rest back in with your legs when you want to get up like most recliners. You don't need to use the lever. It works like a normal recliner but you can swivel.

You can stop the recline at any point. I don't know if it goes to a full recline, but it reclines fairly far back.

it's not adjustable for recline, but it's constructed such that a small pad or pillow could be used to raise one end and it would stay in place fine.

If you mean the pivot then no you can't lock it. But you can adjust the stiffness very quickly

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.

It has to be only up or down. It also doesn't stay in the reclining position unless you scoot back and lay down as far as you can.

Even if it's in the locked position it will recline if you really push, but you should do as suggested by other and turn the locking locking flanges to the unlocked position. This b rand of zero grav chair actually resists forward and back movement more than the original Lafuma chairs so once you're in a good position you sort of stay there, which I like. But yeah, hold the armrests, push with your back and the foot support raises as the back declines.

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

No. There is no true locking position, however there is a point in which the legs will cease to pull out.

Yes; it has a bar underneath that allows the mesh backing to recline back. However it doesn't lock in any reclining position so your options are "locked" and straight or un-locked and freely reclining. This product is okay for the price but not great; I probably wouldn't buy it again. Hope this helps.

If you mean, "can it be set so it does not lean back at all." yes. It has a locking mechanism that can be engaged to prevent the chair from leaning back.

yes it can. The lever that lowers the chair height up and down, just push it in to lock, pull out to unlock.
