Product guide says it's designed for people up to 6'2'' height. What's the optimal angle used to determine this? At 6'5'' would I be sitting too steep

I'm 6'2" and use it at full length. I think the angle will be about the same for you at 6'5" but your feet will be further out in front of you which will put your pelvis into more of a sitting position. I hope that helps.

I do not believe height would be an issue - however weight may be an issue - Although the device is built well - it contains plastics which could fail under stress

I am just shy of 6' with a long torso, but everyone is built differently. For me, the top of the headrest when I'm leaning back in the chair comes to just below the top of my head. It's padded and quite comfortable. At 6' you should be able to recline and relax comfortably on this chair - your head won't flop over the back. :)

You're pushing it, I'm 6'2" and have plenty of room, my brother-in-law is 6'4" and uses it. If worst comes to worst just put a 2x4 under the legs. It's a great machine, worth the effort.

Mary, I am 5 feet 3 1/2 tall and my husband is 6 feet 1 1/2 inches tall. We have both used it. When we use it, we angle the stick so we are relaxed when sitting. Your two legs and the stick make a 3-legged chair. That is the premise. The seat is like an bike seat so it is not all that comfortable, however, when you are on your feet on pavement all day, say at Disneyland, you will be very glad you have it to give your legs, ankles, feet and back a rest!. We are glad we both purchased one.

I am 5ft 10in tall, I feel it is long enough for me in decline position. For 6ft tall person, I think it will work

Unfortunately, if you're shorter than, say, 5'4" it may be too high for you. I'm 5'9" and it is perfect, although care must be taken to avoid leaning back too far due to the three legged stance. I purchased this item to provide me a rest when standing in long lines and it's ideal for that.

I'm sitting in chair now and I don't think a tall person's leg would form a 90 degree angle. I'm 5'4" and my feet have to go past 90 degrees to touch the footrest. Although I will say it's not uncomfortable at all. I'm just looking at my legs from the knee down and it's not a 90 degree angle.

Good Question. My Tallest clients are 6', they dont have trouble that way. If you do, arrange an extra stool or sitting device other than the machine's own so that it sets you back a little, giving it some room for movement

Hello Terence,Yes and No, I am 6'3" and can lay in the chair comfortably at half recline. Once you go beyond that it will start pushing you to bend your knees. At half recline the chair is full functional and works great, I would recommend the chair to anyone. I have had two massage chairs and this one is by far the better of the two for height challenged seating. I hope this helps,Dan

It woudl probably fit you better than it does me and I'm 5'11". Having to keep my seat high up for my legs, I'm leaning over more than I wanted (only because I have back issues, thats all). I think 5'6" would be ideal for this bike. I could easily lower my seat a good 4 inches.

The foot rests are at a fixed, almost 90 degree angle. The length is adjustable. It's not for tall people: I am 5'10" and I have the legs at maximum length.

I'm 6'2" and I'm comfortable on it. It goes to 6'6" and adjusts in one inch increments. Hope that helps.

Best thing to do is find a chair in your house that is comfortable and measure the chair cushion height ***with the cushion compressed as if you are sitting on it with your full weight***. Getting a height too tall can result in circulation being cut off somewhat as the backs of your legs press against the webbing at a downward angle. I tried upsizing to the 21" model when I wore out my first 18" model and I had to go back to the 18" which is perfectly comfortable.

I'm 6'2" and it is comfortable. I'd say that it reclines more like 20 degrees, I believe that is the reason they don't recommend putting you feet up on a desk. Good chair, glad I purchased it.:o)

I am 5'5" and used this on the lowest setting. I think it would be tall enough for you.

I am 6'3" and the head rest seems too low. Stargrave's answer is about right.

Hmmm, well I am 6ft4in and completely "raised" I have about a 45 degree bend in the legs (to the knees). Not sure if that helps?? But I use it for massage and I LOVE it! The chair (cushion) is HUGE!! I am still very please with the chair. Hope this helps...
