I got one of these style chairs second hand. If you're not in it, it tilts back slightly. When you sit in it it's fine, until you lean back in which case it reclines. Just like a recliner. Do you know I can stop it from tilting too far back and lock it when I want? Thanks in advance, I've neen looking it up for a while but can't figure out what I'm doing.

Hi thanks for the video. May I ask what does the spacer do for the that it did or didnt before you put one there? Thanks for any resposne. 😊

The springs were a bit shorter than the original springs, so the adjustable knob wouldn't go down far enough for the new springs.

if the link to the assemblies does not include the exact assembly that my chair has, can I substitute one of the others?

Possibly. Check the measurements posted for the assemblies and see how well they line up.

Would replacing the springs help if the chair is leaning forward too far ?

@TwoKeysStudio Жыл бұрын

These chairs sit at a rght angle, pretty much 90 degrees, which makes it uncomfortable without leaning back. They kind of help. The new springs on mine allow you to lean back properly to make it more comfortable. Before replacing them, I was in fear of leaning back at all, which made the chair very uncomfortable.
