I am 60, do not have balance issues and I'm very fit. But, I'm also very short at 4"11. Would I be too small for the product?

No. In fact, I think you would find it a better fit than my 5'5" frame when it comes to laying down on it.
1023766
No, I don't think you would be too small. You can adjust the exercises for your individual preferences and needs.

Not sure...I thought it would be more comfortable for someone shorter...I'm 5'8"

For me, no. But I'm 6'6". It is just a little too low for me. But if you're 6' tall or under then I'd day it would be just fine.

I am 5'11 and they are good for me. I find that on some shots I tend to hunch a little so for someone a bit shorter may be good.

I'm 5'6". And it works well for me. The top part you can't adjust. The bottom part you can adjust for the length of your legs. However, that may make the top half heavier then the bottom (the balancing problem). If this is what is happening, and you are falling backwards, it is good, because that is where you will end up and want to. It is bad because it is hard to come back to upright when you are done. You may need to attach some weight to the place you stick your feet in. Maybe use leg weights (the ones with the Velcro straps). This should help. Please let me know if this works. Oh.. and make sure you try this with someone there to help! Good luck Darlene. Martin

Small would be just fine for you. I did not think these were too short. They are very comfortable and I plan on buying another color or too in the future. When I bought these I was 122 pounds and I am still 5'2. I think you will be very pleased with these. I certainly hope so.

I'm 56 yr old 5'5" and 140 lbs., and if my balance was a little better I could have pogo ed for a long time. I will say that the spring is a little too strong for my 10 y old 7 lbs daughter. Hope that helps.

I guess it depends on your definition of "tiny" -- I am 5'10" and average weight. I fit fine as does my 6'0" husband who is fit.

I am 64" tall and its just about perfect for my height. I think you may have some issues and would end up bending at times!

I'm barley 5'9 and weigh 150lbs and have a very slender somewhat athletic build and it looks really small on me. I'am 35 yrs old but have a broken back which is why I like it's small/light size.

That's funny that you ask because that's exactly what I used it for. Your height should not be a factor you should be fine! Goodluck

I would imagine so, since you are only an inch above the "recommended" height limit. I want to say that you would just have a little more resistance than someone like me, which isn't a bad thing. Usually I find that any products I purchase through Amazon, which I am unsatisfied with for any reason, can be returned without penalty.

I don't think weight would be an issue but you might be kind of tall. I am 5 11 and it fits me okay.

No you are not to short but I would recommend that you remove the top part that supports your upper body if you want to be more comfortable. I did and I am 4' 11" and it did not interfere with the trainer. You can still attach the calculator that comes with it.

I'm a novice but only 5'7" tall and pretty small all over (and a man). It is fine for me. Henry

Asami, Absolutely! I purchased this fir my 5 year old grandson for his 5th birthday and he did just fine. Nice and wide for better balance. He got this on his actual fifth birthday took off and said, " I couldn't do this when I was four. " one day made all the difference, I guess. Anyway, if he does not have balance issues he should do just fine I, however, was never able. Good luck and enjoy watching him. Tell him if it flies off into street not to run after it 'til he is certain it is safe. It is very sturdy, too! Hope I helped. Kameel

I am 5'3 and have the seat on the lowest possible level. My feet barely touch the floor. It's not designed for short people. I don't think you should have a problem.

My hesitation would be that a younger child may not be tall enough for the sir feet to touch the floor.The chair is fun - puts a smile on my face every time I sit in it. I'm 5ft 1 ½" and my friend is 6ft and both of us find the chair irks great. But a shorter person may be a bit unbalanced.
