It appears customers reviewing this product are reviewing several different products as what is shown in this listing's pictures is not representative of what has been reviewed by customers or in their pictures. The item I received looks exactly as the pictures in Wayfair's product listing here and it clearly shows this product features up to a 130 degree tilt backwards, but after putting this chair together as much as I pushed with a fair bit of force in my seat to lean the chair back and after fully loosening the tilt knob underneath the seat, it moved no more than 2 inches. Disappointed to say the least. Do not buy if tilt or a reclining office chair is your goal as this does not provide enough of either to qualify being advertised as such. So far in other areas worth reviewing, its a decent chair for the money.
