Sure, this reclines, but I wouldn't trust it with half the advertised weight limit. too short screws through plastic arm rests

It was also missing one screw which made assembly on Christmas Eve a little challenging, but luckily I had one that fit

As a result the backrest also goes further back, seems the whole structure is disintegrating because the armrest screws are critical for the entire structure

All the same size screws, so hard to screw up!

Then, the raising mechanism quit, and the screw holding the arm rest broke when I pulled on it

This chair worked for about 6bmobths, then not a screw came lose, neither did a bolt or the armchairs regular armrests break in any way that can be fixed

The problem is that the screws constantly come loose all over the chair.

The chair is extremely easy to assemble (10 min top) and the instructions are easy enough to follow and adding one hex wrench along with all the screw is much appreciated

The screws aren't long enough, the included hex key is completely inadequate

Bought this chair in 2017, and from normal use the screws holding the back together ripped from the wood they were screwed into
