Will a shorter person be comfortable in this chair?

My wife is 5' 4 and she says that her feet comfortable rest on the ground with no leg fatigue.

I believe so. I use 2 of these with my 9yo who plays on a Travel soccer team. Everyone who has used them (one player's grandmother) has found them comfortable. And coffee cup holder (that is what it is for) do not turn over - they are fixed in place. I am 6'2" with long legs, so cannot answer with absolute certainty.

No you are not too tall. Very comfortable chair. You are sitting in a relaxed position plus it pivots.

Hi,Jan; I am shorter than 5' too and 17-18 " from the floor is a perfect position for this chair. Put small pillow on the back too.It will keep you straight. Natalia Chapin

I am 5'2" and I am comfortable on the lowest seat setting. The secret is to removing that optional 4" extra seat height from underneath the seat.

I am short (5 ft), so my feet do not touch flat to the floor. I think they are comfortable enough compared to a wood chair, but maybe not to sit in a long period of time.

Yes. My husband is 6'3" and uses it when I am not...although your comfort level may also depend on how high your desk/table is.

That should not matter. My mother is about 5'4" and 180 lbs and I am shorter and heavier and have no problem with getting in and out of the chair. The foot rest has no spaces so leg length should not matter either.

In my opinion, yes. I am 5'10" and I have the seat adjusted about half-way. If you have the seat all the way forward it should accommodate a 5' person.

I bought this chair for my stepfather and he is not tall. It is fine for him. It is a normal size chair, not too large and not too small. I have sat in it myself and it is extremely comfortable. My husband is 5'11" and he would not have any trouble sitting in it.

The backrest support would probably work well for shorter people. What probably won't work is the seat height if you have shorter legs. I am 5.7 and wish that the seat platform would lower another inch or more. Your heels may not touch the ground comfortably with this chair on its lowest setting.

I'm about 5'-5" and it's comfortable. I'm sure the seat could be raised if necessary.

Yes, I am 4'11" and have no problem using it comfortably. I don't even have it on the shorteset setting.

Hi Tony, Thank you for your inquiry! I asked my manager to double check and he confirms that it is a perfect chair for a petite person. BisonOffice

I am 5'5" and find this chair comfortable; however, I would not recommend this chair in an office work setting. The chair's neutral position is in a reclining position. You cannot adjust the chair to sit up straight. There is plenty of seat room for average size person. The back part of the chair ends about shoulder height on me, so I cannot rest my neck/head against it. The construction is sturdy, but I did have difficulty with a couple of screws.

This chair is for shorter individuals. It fits my mother perfectly and she is 5ft. Im 5 (8) and when I sat in the chair it was uncomfortable because I'm taller. I think this chair is for petite people anyone over 5ft 5in should look into a chair for taller people.

I'm 5' 11" and sitting on this chair at work. Just tried it and I did not have any problems, no sense at all that it was leaning too far back, but YMMV for you.

It depends I suppose on how tall you are but the back of the chair does easily go up and down. I am 5'4', at the lowest setting, it supports my head well. My husband is 5'8" and weraised it all the way up and it supports his head well. The pedals on this chair work really easily so finding your perfect comfort is easy.
