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.

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.

Mine does not sag much, but since I am short and using a 55, it would not be a good desk height. I think most people using them at a desk are using a larger size.

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.

Hi. Happy to help. It is very small for a desk, but a regular secretary's sized chair fits nicely. It does have a rather odd feature, but my son likes it: All along the back of the desk top is a recessed area. My son puts items in it to keep the desk top clear. It is made well. Feel free to ask any additional questions. Gina

I would say no. I'm 5' 11", and the recommended desk surface (forearms parallel to the floor) for my height is 43", which puts the chair cushion height at 34". For 6' 2", a surface should be about 45" and a 36" cushion height. This chair maxes out at 33.5" (empty), and settles to about 32-32.5" (someone sitting on it). The 2" difference is tolerable for me, but a 4" difference might be a bit much.

James,I bought this chair about (2) weeks ago and really like it. I just measured it for you and it appears to be 22.5 inches from floor to the top of the seat area. I'm 6'6", 280 and it fits me very well. I use the chair at a few inches lower than full up so I have room under my desk. Good luck.

I am 6' and I feel the desk is a tad shorter. But I use height adjustable chair so I lowered my chair a bit for suitable height to work.

I'm about 6 feet tall, and I don't hit the corners. My legs fit with a few inches of room under the center part of the desk, but not as much on the sides of the desk where the drawers are. Not to big of a deal; I never sit off to the side anyways.

Mary, for me there is plenty of leg room i am only 5 ft 1 and curl up in an office size computer chair. So for me it's ok, the only proablem i had with this product with the directions of putting it together, the directions came in another language so we had to just follow pictures, which were not of much help. I find this desk very unstable compared to what i was expecting. Have a nice day hope it helps you out :)

Hello, I am 5'4" and it is a stretch to sit down,...not advisable if you are taller also it would be harder to get-UP from a short seat,... the seat is very small kind of like a pancake,...search for cane-seat thingie for some one of height,..when you sit on these seat-cains the cane part goes in front ..for safety, good luck hunting,...Wendy.PEACE

This is perfect for me with standard desk heights. I lower desk chairs to suit my legs, and this is no different. I prefer sitting so my arms can rest on the desk and my spine is in alignment, rather than towering over the desk surface and leaning over like I see taller people...who probably need a taller desk. And these people usually complain of aching backs/back stress.

Darla, I am 14" taller than you, but due to desk constraints I have my Boss chair at its lowest position. The seat bottom is at about 18" above the floor. I hope this helps. PS: I like the chair!

Great for the office, but not tall enough for anything else. It is very comfortable. But make sure you have a non slip pad under if you are using it on wood or title floors. I hope this helps you,Rosa

no too low your legs wont fit under the desk unless you have a VERY short chair

I am 165 cm, leg length - 95 cm. So high seat but small frame works for me. You have to find out for you self, there are many videos on youtube to help you determine size. I already had an old medium frame, mongoose cycle and it was hurting my upper body from too much leaning forward. I find upright seating is more comfortable and less tiring. Higher seat made me lean forward more on a medium size. So the standard recommendation didn't work for me. My preferred seat height is when only my toe finger can reach the earth, that is, both feet can't reach the ground simultaneously.

I don't believe 5' 2" is too short. The chair is adjustable, and you should be able to find a comfortable position.
