What size would work for me as a desk seat? I'm only 5' 2" with shorter legs, but I'm concerned the 55cm would be too short for a standard work desk.

Hi Karla, I don't personaly use one but several of my staff does you want the 65mm I belive based on feed back from my people, hope this helps

I have the 65cm for exercising and I am 5' 4". My inseam is 30 inches and I can sit on the ball. I don't know if you would prefer it smaller or not. I do know that my regular chair at my desk is on the lowest level as I prefer to sit lower. I don't know if I helped you but maybe I gave you enough information to make a decision.

I would think a 55cm should be fine for you. I have a 55cm and a larger. I can use either depending on which desk or table I am working at.

I´m 5 ft and short legs as well the 65c works good for me, at my computer. I got the 55cm for different exercises I do. Love em´both.

I use chair at work which is a very small classroom--meaning I can only fit 5 desks in it. I don't have any problems moving around. I don't know exact measurements. I bought it because I am overweight and wanted a comfortable chair when I am sitting. If I had a complaint it would be that since I am only 5'8" I don't always slide to back of chair because it is big!

The only possible problem is that the rear leg of the DeskCycle is 15 inches wide. This will prevent it from fitting between the legs of some office chairs. If your legs won't reach the pedals, first see if lowering your chair will solve the problem. If not, then contact us we can send you a shorter leg that will fit between your chair legs.

The 53cm should be perfect for you then. I'm 5'11 and it was a tiny bit small for me.

How tall is your desk? I use this and mine is not tall enough to stand and work because my desk is about 34" tall. If your desk is taller theyou could probably get my with standing.

Sure it would look fine. I'm 6' 2" so my legs don't fit easily under the desk. That's my only complaint. Otherwise, it's a pretty decent desk. Suits my purposes fine.

I'm 5' 11" and sitting on this chair at work. Just tried it and I did not have any problems, no sense at all that it was leaning too far back, but YMMV for you.

Yes I think it's to low for a desk. If you go to there web site they will give all the measurements you need.

It will depend a little on what you're using the ball for. I am also 5'5", but I'm currently 280 lbs. I sit on the blue 75cm ball every day at work as my office "chair". Mine is somewhat too large for me fully inflated as it will push my calves away from me, not really allowing a "proper" 90 degree bend at my knees. Without this size ball, however, I'd be sitting far too low at my desk to function. As an exercise ball, I firmly believe the 65 cm ball will work well for you with no question. As an office "chair" make sure to account for your weight and measure to ensure this will give you enough height. Measure the distance from hip to floor while sitting on your current desk chair (adjusted to your required working height). Then see if you can sit on a friend's exercise ball or a ball at your local gym and measure again from hip to floor and compare. If the properly inflated ball allows you enough height to work, you're good to go!

Hi Ethan. While it would be possible to use Mogo at less than the full extension, to do so would mean you would not experience the full benefits of the upright posture that is intended. None of the Focal Upright seats are designed to be used with a traditional height 30" desk.

I love the desk and how it looks. However, I'm 5'4" and there is only about 2" between my legs and the bottom of the desk. An office chair, that rolls, is out of the question. I'm using a low chair from an old dinette set. I've been trying to think of a way to raise the desk about 4" without it looking crappy. If the legs were longer the desk would be perfect. Very sturdy.

I'm 5'10" and about 210lbs. the 75CM is the only way to go for this. pump it up to 75CM and use it for a week. Then you may want to pump it up again since the material will stretch a bit. after it stretches out, you can inflate or deflate it to whatever is comfortable. i like mine about 68-70CM so you sag into it a little, which makes it the perfect height to work at a desk. i use mine at work 40 hours/week for 3+ years. Best thing ever!

I am 5'2 and have the smaller ball; I can tell you it sits pretty low to the ground. The larger one may work with a very short desk, but the problem, I think, would be balancing on it for long periods. Why don't you just take it to work and use it to stretch during breaks? Hope this helps somewhat.

Yes. you can adjust the height of the desk to several levels... higher or lower I am only 5'3 so yes the desk would work for you. I love it and standing part of my day has made a big difference on how I feel at the end of my day. I love it and would totally recommend it.

It's probably pretty good for you. The height is adjustable with a minimum of 24 inches. I have mine at 33 inches and my wife who's 5'7" has to jump up on it. I have too as well, but not much. If it were her chair then it would of course be lower. The bottom cushion has a depth at the center of 18 inches, pretty standard seat size. The left/right front edges are less deep at about 17 inches or so. The seat back is 16 inches high. Pretty decent for me (I'm 5'9") but higher would be nicer. The seat back is not adjustable. So basically the seat itself is very standard, the cushions are well made. I've used it pretty much every day for the past 18 months and it shows no sign of wear. I use it at a standing desk so I can switch between sitting and standing throughout the day. I would highly recommend this chair.

The backrest support would probably work well for shorter people. What probably won't work is the seat height if you have shorter legs. I am 5.7 and wish that the seat platform would lower another inch or more. Your heels may not touch the ground comfortably with this chair on its lowest setting.

This wooden lap desk is great...I love it but I don't think it would fit your chair. It may be snug. The measurement is 23 inches long but with legs opened it measures 25 inches long. It's a heavy very solid table with a built in draw on the side which opens up. If you can use it on a regular coach or bed, it would be great. I use it in bed for reading and use my lap top on it and mouse. It's a good size and it flattens nicely for storage. It is a heavy solid wooden table desk. Good Luck.
