Is the surface area really only 30" high? My waist level is 40" high. It seems I'd be bending over and getting back fatigue.

I am enjoying my potting table. I don't bend over. By the time you sit the pot on it , the work level is just right. If you need a little more height , you could get most any thickness of gardening brick from a place like Lowes to put under each table leg.

It is. I just measured mine. I am 5'0" so it's not a problem for me but I can see where it could be for some. I do love the bench and if it were me, I would probably put it up on cinder blocks to elevate it......I've never had to elevate anything in my life!

Yes, it is an accurate height measurement. It actually is a quite comfortable work height for potting.

Yes, Mr. Martin , the surface is only 30" high, but I find that it's just right when you are working down into the pot. My waist is 40" high as well. I love this bench, it's indestructible, and really has a variety of uses. Only one thing, when the sun is out and hot, it gets very hot to touch. Hope this helped.

I don't think it's too high at all ... I quickly got very comfortable with the action on mine. the saddle could easily be sanded down if needed too.

I have 24" stools which work well. 29" would be too high for a comfortable fit.

I have a question - Im shorter than all of you at 4'9". I recently spent an evening putting together a reclining bike only to find my feet went nowhere near the pedals even on the lowest setting! Reluctant to buy another one.. Any ideas?

To sit in it, or to try to get it to shape, you need to jump into it. Once it settles, it'll probably be a good height compared to the couch. I recently bought a house and moved this "bean bag" (it's filled with scraps of foam blocks). This thing is more trouble than its worth. I would pay you to remove it from my home. It's a cool thought, but you need to remember how large 60" x 60" is. It's wasted space in my house.

I am tall with 40 in.waist, weigh much more than you, and the medium fits very well. However, due to my height I may have a longer waist, which means my hips are further away from the smallest part of my waist, so don't know if that makes a difference.

Your head will be just grazing the ceiling if you have the incline all the way up, otherwise you should just fit. Max pedal height is 20" but your knee is bent at the top of the cycle and your head stays at a constant height while exercising.

I purchased this and my waist is about 31" also...there's no issue with it fitting me. the Velcro can cling to the entire back surface so there really isn't a minimum waist circumference limit...depending on how tight I wrap it, it overlaps itself by quite a bit, but this is by design I believe. it does offer back support...I notice it when I'm on an excercise bike...I don't slouch as much. I think it is primarily designed to create a heat seal that reduces water weight around the abdomen, I'd describe "back support" as secondary benefit. but I do notice it helps for that.

It would be a little too tall for you, but you can try to make it work. Some people are able to adapt to bigger bikes. My boyfriend is 5'6" with a 30" inseam, and he was able to make it work, but he was only able to go short distances. The top tube was too long for him, and he was too unnaturally stretched out on the bike.

Hi that is a hard question, I am a waist 38 and it feels like maybe a waist 42 is pushing it, but you can always try to fit it just make sure you can breathe thru out your work out comfortably.

I don't think you would be comfortable even at its lowest setting. My wife is the same height and although there is a rubber bumper at the bottom, on many surfaces it might slip out from under you. I think they could use a shorter version too.

The measurements on my bench differ slightly from the manufacturer's specs: http://www.ironmaster.com/super-bench.html#.Uu-_irSE7kc My bench is closer to 21" high rather than the stated 20". This makes it an issue for anyone less than six feet tall. You need something to support your feet to perform any flat bench exercises. I can understand that the designers chose these dimensions to accommodate the curved arm that allows incline adjustments. The large footprint also allows for the various attachments. Fortunately most of my exercises involve incline work where my feet are comfortably on the ground. My bench is 43.5" long, 10.25" wide and 2.5" thick.

It's already a bit low for me, 5'5". I'd imagine you'd find it even lower than comfortable level. I don't think the height is adjustable. Check with manufacture to be sure.

I would suggest giving it a try. Your feet are supposed to hang off the edge, but if you push it under your behind, you'll have more extension. I think it's ok if your feet lay on top of the cushion; often find myself in that position when I wake.

Best thing to do is find a chair in your house that is comfortable and measure the chair cushion height ***with the cushion compressed as if you are sitting on it with your full weight***. Getting a height too tall can result in circulation being cut off somewhat as the backs of your legs press against the webbing at a downward angle. I tried upsizing to the 21" model when I wore out my first 18" model and I had to go back to the 18" which is perfectly comfortable.

i am currently sitting at 185-190 and its fine.. i can tell in the long run the padding might need to be added. seems like the bottom cushion is hollow.

I am not sure it will go that high. This is a very solid and comfortable chair. I am 5ft 6" and at it highest I can reach the floor with the tip of my toes. I am not sure your going to find many chairs at 30". I would highly recommend this chair for quality, durability and a great looking chair.
