I'm 5'2". Can this chair be adjusted for a petite person? And I slide the arm rests in toward my body so my elbows aren't out to the side?

The arm rests slide in, but no narrower than the seat. I'm 6'0" 200 LBS and this is a BIG chair.

5'2"??? You could get a booster seat. Jk. The back moves up and down and the armrests move in (towards your body) and out. Now you can't move them in any further than the edges of the seat. So I don't know if that's enough for you. I would think so. It's a great chair.

I am 5'2-1/2" (petite, like you). You can adjust the arms towards or away from your body as well as up and down. The seat height is adjustable and there is also a tilt option. This is a very comfortable chair. I ordered these for everyone in my office and we all love them!

You can adjust this to sit lower, I have mine adjusted to sit at my hip but will adjust longer and I am 5'5"

I think it would work for someone 5' 3". I'm 6' 1" and 245 pounds so I wasn't really thinking about the chair for someone smaller than I, but the canvas sags down a bit so I would think even a shorter person could sit in it. However, it's overkill for a smaller person, because it's a big wide chair and really designed for big guys. You might look at a "regular" size chair, which probably would be cheaper, too.

I am 5'4" and the chair is just fine for my height. It is adjustable. Great chair, by the way.

Yes - at 5'7" I'm very comfortable - the back of the chair is higher so you should not have a problem. Plus, the chair back is curved and conforms to your body.

No, the back does not adjust. I am 5" 5" and its perfect for me. i really like the chair. So does my wife. She is 4"1"

Yes. The angle of inclination of the chair back is infinite between vertical and (almost completely) horizontal. What you CAN'T adjust - not a deal-breaker for me, but something to consider before purchase - is that there is no adjustment of the inclination of the SEAT. In other words, if you choose to adjust the back to a position somewhere between vertical and horizontal, you may find yourself slipping a bit. I love this chair, but not everyone will I'm sure. The only other caveats I've found in the month-plus I've had it are (1) the padding in the seat could be either firmer, or deeper, or both; and (2) the "foot" rest hits mid-calf on a person over six feet tall. You'll have to decide if either of these are deal-breakers FOR YOU.

No, it does not adjust for shorter persons. I had to give mine away, because I missed the send back date. I was very disappointed and thought it was advertised incorrectly.

Hi,. I got this for my mom, and she is 87 5' tall.. After I took out of box,i did not have to adjust anything.. Meaning that the adjustments I think for someone, shorter it would work well for.. Love the chair, very easy to adjust and folding up easy, very lightweight. I would say yes for the price, this chair is well worth it.. Hope this helps, :)

Yes. It is adjustable. I am 5'4" and it can adjust even tighter to where it is not comfortable so I bet It would be great for 5'2" as we'll. it also adjusts easy!

It's already a bit low for me, 5'5". I'd imagine you'd find it even lower than comfortable level. I don't think the height is adjustable. Check with manufacture to be sure.

Yes you can adjust the seat and handles to the lowest settings. It may feel awkward at first but you'll get used to it. I'm about 5'1 with tennis shoes on and it doesn't bother me.

The seat has several adjustments. Im not very tall and it is perfect height. I would not recommend it for tall people.

I bought this chair for my husband. He says I could sit that way in it. I am 5 feet 6 inches.

I'm 5' 3" and I was not able to adjust the seat low enough so that my feet could rest on the ground even with a foot rest. I ended up giving the chair to my son who really enjoys it.

Yes its very adjustable and my mother in law is 5'2" and it works well for her.

I am 5' 8" and let's just say I am about what you weigh. Being that you have a few inches height on me you might find it more comfortable than I have. The back pushes you forward some and I find myself "fighting" with it. In all honesty when I have to replace this chair I will not be buying another like it. I need a straight back situation but this is too forward. I hope this helped.
