Why does my recliner tip when I put the swivel base on?

Your recliner may tip when the swivel base is added due to an imbalance caused by the new height or weight distribution. The swivel base can change the center of gravity, making the chair less stable if it’s not designed to accommodate the added mechanism. Additionally, if the base is not securely attached or is incompatible with the recliner model, it can lead to tipping. Ensure that the base is properly installed and consider the weight capacity and design specifications of both the recliner and the swivel base.
