Any idea on a maximum height for this? My son is about to turn 6 and about 45" tall, I'm worried he won't get much use out of this.

He is definitely not going to get much use out of it. My daughter grew out of it at 5 years old,and guessing around 42-43 inches tall.

I don't think he'll be able to ride it for very long if he is 45" tall now.

Hi James! Well it all depends on how tall your son is. My son is 1 going on 2 years old in August, and he is between 31 to 33 inches tall. The handle comes up to the very top of his belly, right under his chest. I can tell that even when he gets taller he will still be able to use it for a while, but it does seem like it's built for a shorter toddler. If your grandson is a tall or normal -height-for-his-age toddler, this may be a little short for him. I hope this has helped you. :-)

Specs for weight are 250lbs max, but there is probably 20lbs+ of leeway in that number. Try at your own risk. He will be too tall though. I'm 6'1", and there is only one more notch for height adjustment left.

I got it for my three year old grandson, I'm sure it would thrill a six year old. According to the age definitions, it should be okay size wise. I was hoping my grandson would be able to use it for several years. Hope it works for you.

Hey Christine. How tall? I'd say if he's over 5'0 then you'd want something bigger to allow some growing room. Otherwise this will be a good bike.

No, this is not tall enough for a six year old. My daughter is now 3 and she's just right, and was at 2. She's about 36" tall. A six year old would tower over this.

My two and a half year old son who is very tall for his age (90th percentile) is still fitting in fine, but I suspect he will outgrow it in not too distant future. It really is an amazing buggy though and we sure will be using when we have our next one.

Might be a little short for a 6 year old. My son is one (31 inches tall so he's tall for a one year old) and its right at his armpits. It's still a little tall for him but he is able to play with it.

I feel like the seat isn't deep enough for strolling taller kids in this (above 36") so not sure how long you'll be able to use this. My son's butt is almost at the edge of this thing and he looks really uncomfortable in it.

My son is 6'1 6'2 and it works well for him. However, once you set the bench there is only a few adjustments. I would visit a brick & mortar store to ensure it fits your needs. From my point of view it could use some extra length on the bench. Nonetheless it was a great purchase.

We used it from 4 months and still use it every now and then (my son is currently 11 months old). It is definitely a go-to toy when I just need to be hands free for a couple of minutes, but he's outgrown staying in it much longer than 5 minutes at a time. At 8 months, we probably used it several times a day still, but it might not be worth the $ at this point. I would be more concerned with the height. At 30 inches, my son is at the last height level, and I'm pretty sure that's the maximum recommended height, too. We'll probably pack it up right around his birthday...

I just measured my daughter and she is also 49" tall too,,,,,, and she is 6...... and it's too small for her..My son is 9 yrs old and he's 4' 8' ( 56" inches )and he looks like a grown adult sitting at it.... i would say that this size would be perfect for a 2 to "maybe" 5 yr old....Hope this helps......might need the next size up....:)

My three year old grandson is about 42" tall. I thought he was tall when we got the bike.I adjusted it as tall as it would go, and it was difficult for him to maneuver. I dropped the seat a little and he rides it every where. I guess I'm saying that at 42" he still has room.

That's definitely at the upper end of the range. My daughter was 42in tall when we got hers. She can use it fine but her knees are bent when she does. You might check if the Strider adjusts higher. Good luck!

If she does, it won't be for long... my niece who just turned 6 is 45 pounds can barely fit for a few minutes comfortably. When my daughter who is probably about 34 inches sits in it, she probably only has a foot of space above her head (and less space for getting in and out as the roof arches up for more headspace once inside). You might want to look for another toy, or you can get this and enjoy it for a little while. I'm sure you could sell it easily when you're done with it (or save it for another kiddo).

Our 6'7" son had fun with the one I bought. Cannot measure - it's in a different state now.
