Everyone agrees its not for shorter people, but how short is short? My wife is 5 foot even.

My wife is 5'1" and she loves it. She's been bugging me to replace our other toilet with this one because she likes it so much.

My wife is 5'4" and she rides it pretty well, but the seat is as low as it goes...

I'm 5'5" and it's goof for me. Also, my niece who is 5'8" finds it a good fit. It may be overwhelming for folks shorter than 5'5" but should work well for your height.

It is kind of short actually, 3-4 feet would be my guess. (I didn't measure it.)

I'm 6' and my wife is 5'8". The bow is perfect for me and my wife uses it, too. The draw weight is the only issue for her. So, as long as the person is strong enough for the draw, I'd say maybe 5'6" or more would be ok.

I'd say like almost 4 feet from the ground. You cant ly flat on floor with your arms etended you'd be too short. I'm 5'5" myself.

My Wife is 5'3" & she loves it. I have a hard time keeping her from using it. I have gotten to use it very little.

I could measure it... but just off hand I'd say it's probably not quite long enough for someone that tall .. unless he has very long arms. I find it just about right for me and my husband and we are between 5 5 and 5 9

I'm no expert but my wife got the smaller one which is perfect for her (5' 4"). I have tried it (5' 8") and it is fine. I can't imagine its being a problem for someone who is 5' 6".

Although I am much shorter, my husband is 5'9" and has no problems with the stride- that is, when I can get him to use the thing. My D-I-L is about your height and leg length and uses it without complaint.

I don't remember the exact length, but I'm 5'2" and it's perfect for me... I'm afraid it may be short for you though :(

My wife is 5'6" and she can ride it fine. My 5 year old daughter is 47"'s tall and even she can ride it. The seat goes real low.

My wife is 5'9", and she only has good things to say about her riding experience. I'm 6' even, and I have no trouble riding this model.

While the quality of the bike is excellent, I am disappointed since I cannot ride it! It is described as being for people as short as 4' 7", but at 5' it is still too tall for me! Maybe your wife's extra two inches will make it usable for her. It cost me an additional $50 to have it assembled. I would be happy to sell my unused bike to you . . . it's in excellent condition!

It doesn't seem to be, but I am 5'3" as well, and my mother-in-law is 5'1" and we both have one. It is wonderful.

We bought it for my wife. She is exactly 5 feet tall and finds it works very well for her.

Hi! Actually is short. No more than 3'. Usually we need a extension. Other than that it has been a great purchase.
