The walking area is 17" wide by 44" long -- that's big enough for me to walk on. I am 5'5" and I just walk; so I don't take up much space -- I don't know how it would be for running or if you take big steps. I just walk toward the front and stay in that area holding on to the rail. I don't think it is sturdy enough for running or tremendously active workouts, but it is great for just walking the way I do. I am 79 years old but I swim 1 mile each day doing the backstroke and also do 1 hour of water aerobics; so I do exercise but I am not speedy or walking with a stomp -- just walking and watching TV, The walking area is 17" wide by 44" long -- that's big enough for me to walk on.

Might be too short. I am 5' 4'' and just walked, and it was fine for me. I walked on this treadmill for 30 minutes a day for 3 years. The motor gave out this year. Since I paid about $600 for it, I felt that 3 years of good use was a decent value. Just don't expect it to last forever.

My husband is 5'10" and he does hourssss long walks on it :-) He comes off sweating too. The runway is a good length.

I'm 5'5" and can lengthen my stride quite a bit, and still have plenty of room left where I'm not bumping against the front or getting near the back of the treadmill. You could take the measurement of your stride at your normal brisk walking pace and see how long it is. I just measured the belt and there's 43" of free space between the front and the back. That's a lot of room.

I am almost 6' and 165lbs and never had a problem... especially just walking. The machine is perfect for my apartment and I can pack and unpack it easily. My best advice for anyone who is interested is, if you have room for a more permanent machine that you wont move and store consistently then get a better machine. This machine is perfect for those of use who dont have room to leave it assembled and plan to store it constantly then get one. This unit is great for storing until needed... and particularly due to its compact storage capabilities. That said... it was able to keep up with me no problem on any setting; however, it is noisier on higher settings. Still worth it and hope this helps!

to me it's not that long whereas you can wrap it around you comfortably. It also rolls. I don't even wear it anymore. to me it's uncomfortable. and it not as wide as I thought. I believe I chose the wrong belt but didn't want to go through the hassle of returning. But you have to try for yourself and if you don't like it then you can return it. It might just work for you.

Probably not. It's a great chair/stool but my husband, who is 5'8", found it too short as a cane for any extended walking.

The belt on my pouch can expand to as long as 50". I've had a lot of different pouches and this is my favorite.

The cane is short.I'm 5'8" I t would be better for me if longer. I t is one of the only cane chairs that you can walk with.The others you carry with shoulder strap,then open to sit.It is a great chair,I'm sure it will work for you. Good luck!! Your friend Ron.

Finding one with a large waist belt is not easy to do. You have to ask the vendor if he can provide you with one. Mine came with a medium. I have a 46" waist. The medium will do me for now as it does easily go around me, but I would definitely prefer to find a size large.

Down to 34 inches or so... Keep in mind, however, that one would not wear this as a belt. One would want it to "hang" a bit loose. I would think it would work well for someone with a 29 or 30 inch waist (think belt size). Hope this helps.

Yes the belt comes very small in length and it has to be adjusted in size.. But i.had someone who was a size 32-34 try the belt on not adjusted and it fit. Hope this helps!

No, and its very heavy. The belt area is pretty long. If your not very tall you may want to go with a shorter belt area and it will obviously be lighter and easier to move.

I think you should be, I'm 5'11, 205, 36 waist, and when I got it, I had to loosen it about 2 inches in the back straps (chest adjust) and loosen like four inches in the belt......so basically this vest fully tightened should be tight and right on you.....and if you're still growing you'll have enough room to keep this for a longgg while.

The belt I have is 6 inches wide and 37 inches long....I have a 35 inch waist and the belt is snug when fastened.You might find it too snug.It tends to drift down to your pants level, putting yourfirearm half in and half above your belt. I really believeyou should look into something bigger (longer)....

I'm 5'9" and 220# and the belt is plenty big enough. The only thing I didn't like is that it dug into my sides a bit, so I got the additional side floats and the belt is still long enough.

I'm 5'3" and it's only just comfortable. I have another much more expensive walker and it's no different! Still have to bend forward a bit. Don't know what to tell you....sorry I can not be more helpful

Yes, it's much too long to be worn around the waist (I'm about 5' 5" and it fits for me at its tightest notch). Total length of the belt is about 52".

It says 70 inches for the waist belt so it should. If not you could easily go to a local store and buy some nylon webbing and buckles to make yourself a short extension.

You can use any length belt that fits the user. We got one from a luggage store.

The belt I have stretches out to 53.5 inches. That will be too close to get the benefit of the velcro support and adjustable back. Get the larger size.
