Which height is better for an island that is about 36 inches high? I'm 5'9" tall.

If you want your knees under, go short. I wanted to reach ingredients and cook, so I went tall.

My tiki hut bar is 43 inches tall and I am 5'10. The 29 inch stools are the perfect height, in my opinion. My island in kitchen is 36, so you don't want the 29" stools.

The couple I bought them for are about 5'9" and 5'11", and they think the 29" in perfect. They're bar is about 40" tall

24" is better. That's what I got and my island is also 36" and my son is 5'9". :)

Actually, I would think that the shorter you are, the 9" size would be better than the 7" since it would increase the squat angle. I am 5'6", and the 9" is perfect. The greater the angle, the greater the benefit. If you toilet is very low to the ground, you could do the 7", but I would always suggest the 9". You will SO notice the difference. This device will be one of the single greatest improvements you can make to your health. I know, believe me.

Mine is 36" high, it's counter height. Yes, I think it is a comfortable height and I'm 5'-10".

It might be best to go for the smaller one. Although, the only harm the taller one will do is raise your feet more; it is a matter of your personal comfort.

I'd suggest adult short as well. I am 5'9" and adult long was perfect for me. -dr

I'm 5'9" & it's the perfect height for me so I doubt it would work for you . . . unless you can find a shorter version.

Just over nine inches tall. If you include the three foot pads on the top, then about nine and a half inches tall.

The prep area is not high at all - I'm 5'5" and I can't use it at all except to store my spices and mail. I use the main section - about as high as a regular countertop (it's slightly higher) instead of the prep area. If I had to do it again if pick a different island.

The cart is about 6 inches lower than my counter tops. I think it would be awkward to use it as an island for an average height person. I use it for storage mostly, the top is nice to keep a stand mixer on and extra counter space.

Hi Kathy, my wife LOVES this island. It is 30 X 30 inches square on top and it is 36.5 inches tall. Good Luck.

at present i am reading a book that is 9.5" high. i think the 10.5 one would work.

We have four of them at our kitchen island, which is counter height. They are comfortable, sturdy and easy to put together. Happy we purchased them.

I bought this for my 5'9" daughter, so I don't know... I'm 5'4" and I use a mall footstool at my office, when needed. If you sit on a chair low enough for your heights, you may be working at an (ergonomically) low position compared to the table/desk height, so a foot stool with a chair raised appropriately might be better for you anyway. The chair is very attractive and comfortable as is.

I had mine on the shortest setting and I am 5'2". Says it can go up to 38" tall.

It is 36 height... but I'm sure you can raise it higher... I don't know if you have something to put underneath it... or maybe the legs of it can get unscrewed at the bottom...
