Extensive research has been undertaken throughout the development process, examining aspects including the optimum amount of padding and seat angle,
I need to know the fixed angle of the seat back, curvature, etc. If it is close to the standard reclined position, in a position that's comfortable, I have no reason to avoid them just on the principle of the mechanisms in the seat.
