How long is the handle? The description says 59" long. That sounds too long for shorter people? Thank you!

Well, when it's at an angle from your hand to the floor, it needs to be long enough for tall people. Shorter people can hold it lower down. I'm 5'5" and haven't had a problem using it.

The handle does not extend. My husband is 5' 8" and it is fine for him, BUT I suspect it will not be comfortable for anyone over 6' without some kind of extension (you could hook an extension handle on, like the stroller handle extender made by MB Solutions).

The height from handle to floor is 35 inches. I just measured it to make sure.

Deb,The handle is not adjustable but the height is fine for a shorter person.I usually strap the blade control handleto theto the regular handle to keep it running and then use it like a stroller pushing down on the handle to turn it .good luck

Really depends on your preference. If you like the grip close to the head (better control, I think), then a short handle may work well, even with huge hands. Otherwise, I'd go for the longer version.

At full extension, the handle is 48 inches long, and when I hold it at the angle needed to actually vacuum, it still reaches about 33 inches off the floor. I'm 5'8" and for me, the handle is comfy as low as 27 or 28 inches. It also can telescope down to a lower height.

The handle is 32" long. We just had the wagon out today and my husband who is about 5'9" says he had lots of room and someone 6' tall could easily pull the wagon. Hope this helps. We took this wagon to the beach and it worked well in the sand with the big tires also.

There is no long handle. That is only disadvantage for this product. The quality of the product is really good.

Not sure about that? But it seems plenty long enough. Maybe their just talking about the silver part of the handle is eight inches before the black muddler part is added on? This is worth buying.

I am about 5'3" and it's a little high for me. I can't measure it yet, because it's folded in my trunk and I am not able to lift anything until next week. Sorry I can't measure it until next week. If you want, please check back. I do love using it for my dog, although I would like to be able to LOWER the handle.

No, this will be too short for you (unless you have long arms). I'm 5'6" and the handles are the right height, if not slightly low.

I have not measured the handle but I have regular sized hands and it is not too long or too short. I don't know if that's going to help or not. I hope it does.

I haven't measured the settings but I'm 6' 2" tall and the settings worked for me. It should work for shorter settings as well. I should tell you that the handle was a problem with extended use. It is a "T" shaped handle and I found it chaffed on my fingers with extended use. I now prefer a "U" shaped handle in which there is no stem that goes between your fingers. Aside from that the cane was excellent.

I don't remember the exact measurements on this because it was too small for my dad and we returned it. I think it was only 24" long- which would probably work for someone who has stronger mobility and is smaller- or a woman. The one that we ended up getting was 30" with only one handle and is about 6-7" wide, which works for a larger person. My dad is 6' tall, unable to use from the knees down and is about 230 lb. The return transaction was easy and fast on the smaller one.

Just measured mine. It is actually 43" from the floor to the top of the handle.

The handle extends 13 inches above the bag when fully extended. The bag with handle fully extended is about 41 inches in length. I am 6'2" in height and find it comfortable to pull along behind me.

I did not keep the item because it was too big for our purposes but the handle looked sturdy and comfortable. I would look to the details from the manufacture for exact length. It would be too big for a child to use comfortably but a nice length for an adult. Hope that helps
