I am barely 5 feet tall. The protruding "head rest" built into seat backs hits me uncomfortably on the top of my head. Could 1st class help?

I think that you could pull it further down towards the horizontal part of the seat and barely inflate it.

I believe it will work for all of us. I flew to and from Europe last year in "steerage" and I could feel the cold, icy stares of my wife from across the isle as she regretfully remembered me offering to buy two! As a retired road warrior I only wish that this had been invented years ago. Slept 5 of the nine hours!

Possibly. The 1st class sleeper basically gives you a second skin against the back of the seat, so you would end up resting against it and not the airplane seat.

I am 5'11'' but and rather lean - including not much at the seat - while my wife is 5'2'' and more round than not we both find the fact that it is connected air chambers but, still able to have the air shift around add to the comfort - so as you move around the air moves from one area in the sleeper to another so, I think you could find ways to help it make you more comfortable and it rolls up to a very portable size.

You'll jut sit lower then. I have beauty rest memory foam plus pillow top so part of my head board is covered. Just keep in mind it's a platform not a regular box spring.

I am 5'2" and this chair comes to the top of my neck but does not rest my head.

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.

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

I no longer have the chair. I am 6 feet tall. If I remember correctly, I could rest the lower half of my head against the top of the chair. I hope that helps.....

I think the seat is slanted too much for my hight. I'm 6'2". I did, just now, adjust the arm at the base of the seat to it's lowest point, this helps some. I will try this position to see if I can reduce the pressure on my shins and, try to find a position best suited for my posture/hight. Thanks for your input. I'll get back asap.

At 6' you can use it yet your head would be high on the headrest - BACKSTORE

Maybe, I'm 5 ft 8 inches, and I can't quite get it to adjust just right for me. I need the handle bars another 2 inches higher and the seat to come forward another 1 inch. Doesn't sound like a lot, and it's not, if you are just going to ride around the block, but if you are going to ride all day it gets real uncomfortable riding.

I'm guessing you'd be better off following John P.'s advice, but I'll give my two cents for what it's worth. My height is 5'9" and in the sitting position, with the footrest extended, my ankles are just hanging over the front edge; whereas, in the fully reclined position, my heels are just resting on the front edge of the footrest. Like John P., I find it very comfortable. There is still ample room above my head, at least 6 inches to the top of that huge headrest. And it's certainly wide enough - my 6 year-old grandson can squeeze in next to me when I read to him. Good luck, Lawrence!

i'm 5'8". when i stop the bike, i cannot sit on the seat with my whole foot standing on the ground. so i guess you may not feel comfortable riding this bike.

You wouldn't be comfortable because of the hard plastic pieces on the back. Sometimes they bother me when I am reclining. Give it a try and find out for yourself how it feels.

I am 5 ft. 4 in. and the top of my head is even with the top of the chair back.

This seat is not for a BIG guy, it just won't take the considerable abuse it will get. you might look into a seat made just for such a person.

According to the picture in the Amazon webpage - you know, the one with dimensions marked on it (hint hint) the seat back is 28.7 inches high from seat to top. :)I'm 6'2", and "long-wasted." When I sit up straight and lean my head back, my eyes end up looking at the ceiling. Good for a change of perspective, and to de-stress the neck, but probably not what you meant. Interestingly, though, if I just flip the switch and recline the seat back a bit, my head rests on the back perfectly!The best of both worlds, or a deal-breaker? You decide...

Please think twice before ordering this chair. I'm 5'5". The height was fine for head support. The problem is there is no cushion or give whatsoever in this chair. It's like sitting on a board with a piece of fabric stretched across it. I was so disappointed with the feel.

I am 5' 1" and can't reach the pedals. I am looking for a nice cool back cushion to place on it to get me closer.
