My Chair is in storage right now, but I want to say it's about 28 inches high it is high enough for some one like you that would have either MD or some type of back problem I am very happy with mine I have Fibromyalgia myself and also struggle with getting up from a chair not with this one, I've had people with back probglems that have actually tried mine and have bought one cause they like the height of it, you don't sit low on this kind of chair it's something that is very easy to get in and out off.

I am 5 ft 8 and I do not have to push up to get out. The height is perfect. You do have to lift up a little to sit down. I would measure for you but is stored for winter.

The seat is roughly 17" from the ground.Can't say enough great things about these chairs. Had mine for over five years, use them practically every day and they are still going strong. If the chair meets your height needs, you can't find a better chair!

I find it awkward to use, both sitting down and rising. It is also hard to raise up from a reclining position. It is, however, very comfortable to lay in to read. I always make sure it its near a strong surface, so I can use that to help me push up. The seat is about 18 inches from the floor, but your feet are not directly beneath you making it somewhat difficult to get out of. I hope this helps. I do like it and am glad I bought it.

Sorry, I have not measured how high off of the ground, but it's a well built chair and well worth the money. It not low to the ground at all. The only thing that is a total waste is the cup holder. It holds nothing. Very light to carry. Bottom line, you'll be happy with the chair.

Without actually going downstairs to measure it - I am pretty sure, for me, the seat is regular chair height (18"). If you are shorter than me, and you are, (I'm 6'-2" so I have it all the way up) your height would be lower than that because the seat rides on an incline and you would be sending it lower. I also am old 71 and I find the machine to be quite comfortable.

I am 6'1 and rides fine. 6'3 I can imagine you rise the seat a little higher and you should be okay.

The seat itself is about 19-20" high. It's angled slightly to the rear, and once you sit on it, it's lower than that due to the weight on it and the fact that it's nylon and has a little "give" to it. My husband, who is mostly paralyzed on one side of his body, and is 6'1" has no trouble arising from the seated position. He faces the front, puts his weight on the handle, lifts up and steps back from the seat.

Hello! The chair is about 36inches from the ground(3feet). The seat sits high from the ground about 17inches. My old chair that I got from Bed, Bath & Beyond sat really low to the ground and rising up from the chair was aching. However this chair, I love it! Ease getting in & out because of the height & comfort.

The seat is just a few inches off the ground. The back is still long enough to lean back in. I'm 6 ft and can lounge comfortably. However my knees are above my butt, when sitting with my legs bent. Getting up can be a pain.

I think its about 18 inches off the floor at the high point so you should be fine there. I'd consider a different machine if I were you though. My brother's lasted about six months. Just long enough for the warranty to run out. If you're more than a casual exerciser pay a little more and get a better model. You'll be glad you did.

At it's highest point, it is 21" from ground to top of seat. The balls of my feet can reach the floor, but my heels are not touching. The seat itself is long enough that it almost reaches the bend in my knee, so it gives great support in that area as well. Hope this helps!

Chair is about 17 inches from the ground. As someone who has shoulder problems, the arms are very strong. I love the style of the arms which makes getting up a lot easier.

The foot rest is at the top of the non moveable frame. The seat is on the adjusting /moveable side of framework. So if your adjusted way down it will only be around 8" or so from the bottom of the seat. But for me I have it at the highest (or close to it ) and there's probably around 1.5' of distance. I'm 5'11" and still sit down to get into seat,and which ever leg you keep on pegs is not perfect but it works well ...or well enough. It's an inexpensive alternative

I don't own it anymore, but it didn't lift my child by much - my guess is about 4 inches or so(?). It really to secure your child to the adult-sized seat - not necessarily to give them a lift higher. I hope this helps. Thanks.

I have back problems and is hard to get out of low chairs. This chair is high enough to get up without help. I am 5'7" and the seat comes to bend of knee. Higher than normal. I love my chair. Everyone that sees the chair orders them one. Fit perfect in the sports wagon.

I'm 5'4" and I can back up to the seat. The seat is like around 36" from the ground. I do arts and craft shows, so the lower chairs I would have to stand up to talk to my coustermers. Now I'm almost eye to eye. I had an wood directors chair and had to jump up to seat in it. Everyone that has seen our chair and sat in plans or has already ordered one. You will love the chair.

It is a lil higher than a normal seat, I dunno the exact measurement but I'd ballpark it around 1 inch higher.
