How close to the wall can the lounger be placed? In other words, does the rear of the frame extend past the rear of the back, and if so by how much?

The rear of the frame doesn't extend much. You can get the back very close to the wall. In fact you actually have to pull it away from the wall if you want to use the futon function.

The back can be made to have a slight rocking or still position. Its a fairly stationary back unless you want to rock. I would say no to your question.Hoped I helped.

With the back of the seat pushed all the way forward there is 1.5 inches of space between the seat cushion and the support bar of the back of the seat and 3 inches from the bottom of the back cushion to the top of the seat cushion. Hope this answers your question.

Yes you have to move the frame away for the wall--far enough to be able to unfold the back of the frame so it lays flat.

You will have to move the bench away from the wall a few inches. Still a great bench!

No, it doesn't have to be against the wall! I had the same concern, but my son and his friends can lean back on it no problem. The chair has very strong bands that attach to Velcro at both sides. I can't speak to how long they will last--we've had it for about 6 months.

CarolFrom the Bottom of thee seat to the top of the back of the seat is 20". My wife has been using it for a while now and the chair has broken in quite nice. She really like it and has said it is the best one she has had sofa. Hope this helps you make you decision on what to get. Sorry it took me so long to respond.Duane & Evelyn

You don't even need to take the legs off. The back is designed to slide in and out of the rest of the frame on metal tracks. All you have to do is slide the back off and you'd have 2 pieces that could easily fit through 30 inches. Looks regal for the price, pretty comfy to nap on too.

Place chair five feet or so from wall. Recline. Check how near back comes to wall. (must not touch wall) Judge from that how away chair should normally be!

It's NOT a wallhugger. I don't have an exact measurement but it needs quite a bit of space to recline fully.

Sorry for the delay! It has a bit of a curve to the back so it's not flush against the wall. But beautiful! Would recommend it!

My chair sits on an angle in my room and the closest corner of the base is about 12 inches away from the wall. It will recline without hitting the wall at this distance.

I haven't tried it but yes, you just have to leave enough space between the mattress and the wall to allow the part that will become the back rest to lean back and stay up. Also, the seat will be pretty low to the ground. Right now I have all three sections folded against the walls with two standard pillows as a backrest, I love it!

I have it against a wall but I almost put it in another place so I know it is a finished back. Hope this helps

It can be reclined without being up against something. I have mine as a divider for the living room and dining room, no wall behind it. It actually reclines farther without a wall. Either way works, though!

No, it needs to be about 2 feet out from the wall if you want to recline fully.

The back is angled. You could use it against a flat wall, the far back is flat, it doesn't come to a point. It just works in a corner because the left and right rear corners are cut off. Make sure you have an electric screwdriver if you plan to assemble this piece yourself...there are a million screws.
