has anyone noticed that the curvature of the backrest isn't 100% symmetrical?

Office work for most people involves more than just typing and staring at a screen directly in front of you. The curvature of the Mirra allows the back rest to move with you from side to side; it flexes along with you and maintains support when your leaning.

I'm not sure, but if I would buy again I woukdnt get this one. I feel like the backrest is low and does not have enough support.

Mine doesn't actually do either. It's almost closer to being "seated" in place. Once moving I haven't had any issues. Hope this helps.

I have not noticed that on ours but have not paid particular attention. I suppose if it was swaying I would have noticed. I have actually also put wheels on my stand so it is easy to move around.

Yes it does straighten out. There is now just a very slight bend, and I probably am the only one who notices.

I found a picture showing the unit from the side: http://www.amazon.com/Bilt-rite-Orthopedics-Safety-Infrared-Heat/dp/B009R2J0KI/ref=cm_cr-mr-title. As you can see the backside is not flat.

I just remember when I went to put my chair together it was like the springs were backwards. It took my husband using extreme force to get them to work. I would have to look at my chair to see how many springs total and were they are located, unfortunately it's at work. I will check tomorrow.

I do feel a slightly stiff area, close or almost over lower stitch area of backrest. Seems there is an area right below and above stitch that does not have adequate amt of cushioning material. But I don't have issues with that. It would be a good idea if you place something soft, thin, with some cushioning in that area of your back so you don't feel it.

I think that is an optical illusion. I notice no slant to our seat. We love it.

Mine is curved as well, but I didn't start to notice it until a few weeks after purchase. I will flip it over for a day or two, and the curve becomes less pronounced. I do this once every few weeks.I should note that I have never soaked it, and I have followed all manufacturer's instructions to the letter.

Shane, it is flat on the back. It does NOT keep the curve. Hope this helps.

It has a slight slant to the back. I did end up sending couch back. Some of the mechanics on the recliner to the right was broken and the couch had a odor of smoke.

I'm not seeing that much of a curve. It's very comfortable. My wife and I sit on it every evening with a glass of wine.

It is pretty stiff all the way through. That is OK to me; however, the curve of the cushion is too high to give me enough support in my lower lumbar, where my problem is. It is not really triangular shaped like others I have, but is almost even across, like a rising sun or something, if that makes sense. Hope that helps.

Hi. The back of this one is hard plastic and curved upward for the small of your back (following the normal curvature of your spine). I like that, and find the flat padded backs on others not nearly as comfortable. The only drawback to this is that there is not a soft surface for the back of your head when using the machine. Would I buy this one again? You betcha.....and a bargain price with SUPER fast delivery from the company. Box arrived in good shape and simple to put together. Roger

No it's not defective once it sits for a while it shapes up. Thats how memory foam works.

Umm... not really? but the back rest is kind of at angle, so i didnt even notice.
