Is this truly for short people? My leg is 15-16" from knee to top, most chairs are too deep so feet &amp; back can't touch floor/back of chair.

It is. I am 5 feet tall and mainly short in the legs. It works. your feet will be on the ground and your rear all the way in the corner.

Hi Cynthia! I'm not petite. The depth of the chair (from your back to your knees) is 17 inches. Hope this helps.

I am disappointed! I am 5'5" and my feet are not flat on the ground. I love the chair, but not the height! UGH!!

The chair is comfortable but short? The bottom part is short so if you are a tall person your legs hang over the end. I wouldnot recommend this chair.

The chair seat does not adjust for height. Only the leg/feet pieces height adjust for person's leg length.

It's as low as a regular table chair. If your person or you have knee problems it might be difficult to get up again. It's takes a moment to get used to the tripodness. A older person should use a walker with a chair but if your stubborn like my mom and not ready for that just yet this might work.

Answered this in another question about height. 15.75 inches from seat at lowest position and the ground. Legs will need to be longer than that to possibly touch, probably an inch or two longer to be able to comfortably touch.

I am 5ft 10 inches tall and 170lbs and I can fit in the chair without any leg length issue. This is a very good and a comfortable chair. I would highly recommend it!

I'm 5'4", and my feet can't completely touch the floor when I seat on it normally (unless I purposely lean forward), so it's rather uncomfortable. I'm trying to return it, but it seems impossible to take the chair apart once assembled.

depends on how tall you are...I'm 5'6" with most of my height thru my torso..meaning my legs don't reach the ground when I'm sitting in this chair, so I have to scoot forward to get out

The chair is currently in our storage so I can't get to it to measure it, but I can tell you that my husband is 6'2 and I am 6' and it is very comfortable for us, with a little leg room to spare. Maybe contact the manufacturer directly. Wish I could be more of a help.

I am 5'7" and I have the setting at the max in order to fully extend my legs...My guess would be that it may not work for someone of your height.

I am 5'7" and as much as this chair was perfect for me, the leg foot peddles were on the longest setting. He would have his knees bent, I needed it to be straight.

Yes! I do believe someone could cross there legs in this chair. The chair seat is wider then most chairs. I am 5' 4" and 150# myself. Again I say (( YES! )) you should be able to cross your legs.

Hi Kathleen, The lowest this stool can go is about 20" (from floor to top of cushion). I unfortunately can't answer your question because there are many factors when it comes to height (length between knee and ankle, length between pelvis and knee, etc) . The best I can recommend is find an object that is 20" high and sit on it to see if it would be of a comfortable height for you. Hope that helps.

I am 5'3 and have the seat on the lowest possible level. My feet barely touch the floor. It's not designed for short people. I don't think you should have a problem.

The chair works well for me. I am 5'5" when I raise the chair all the way up my legs do not hit the floor so I would assume it should work well for someone taller.
