does this chair have good lower back support?

Yes But after a long time of sitting your ass starts hurting so put like a pillow or something on it

No, it does not and is fairly simple to put together. Not very comfortable though if you are on the shorter side since your feet will not meet the bottom foot bar and the back of the chair leans back which will cause your legs/feet to "dangle" in the air. Will be selling mine in a couple of years after I get a little use out of them.

It's really not bad at all. I have lower back problems, so sitting for long periods of time is usually not my favorite thing, but I like this chair comfort-wise more than most.

Yes it does. May want something to sit on if you are sitting for a long time. Lean back is fine.

No it is not supportive, that is the whole point of the chair. The chair is to aid in strengthening your core muscles and sitting up staight, so that you are not slouching in a chair and looking for back support. I agree completely with C. Berg, that is will take a week or two to get used to and build those muscles. But once you do, you will very rarely ever touch the back.

no the back does not move up and down, It has a minimal tilt feature for the back but barley noticeable. great chair !

Yes, it does. Sorry for the late response. I just saw your question. It's an excellent chair.

Technically, no. However, if you put a pad on the chair seat(highly advisable) it will change the position where the support hits your lower back. A two inch pad lifted me too high and the back support was in the wrong place. A one inch pad worked fine. I am six feet tall. Hope this helps.

it rests on the bottom of the chair - it is sort of stif but it does give great support.

I do not find that it is supportive of my back. It does go lower than my waist line.

Yes it does leans back. For a chair that is supposed to be for someone heavier, it is really loosey goosey and I have had casters break in less than a year.

The chair is comfortable and firm. The back height adjustment does not stay in place, so the back is always at it's lowest position. If this is ok, it is very comfortable. All the other positons such as tilt and seat height have locks to keep them from moving or "bleeding" position, but it is strange that the back does not and is the one position that really needs to be locked in place.

I bought this chair for my wife and have also used it. It is adjustable and the back support is very good. In addition, it is quite a beautiful piece of furniture as long as you can keep it clean which we have had no problems with so far.

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.

Yes but your expectations for "back as far upright as possible" and "front tilted down" may or may not be met. Guessing that with the seat tilted down as far as possible the back is still less than a 90 degree "as far upright as possible" position however it's comfortable and does keep the pressure off the back of legs if that's what you are looking for. My disappointment with this chair is the lack of height...anyone over about 5'6" may not find this chair's max height adequate.

Not really. Most important thing is that this chair doesn't recline. BAD....
