I am 5 feet tall. Is there no way that is would work for me too?

I am 5'1" and use the TrekDesk. I was meticulous in measuring the lowest height of the trekdesk (from scematics on their website) and then checking the height of the treadmill panels before I bought a treadmill. The bottom of my treadmill panel is just below the lip of the desk. Also, I put a rubber mat under the treadmill to raise it up a bit. They recommend that anyway in case of oil leak. Mine works fine. After a few tens of times of jumping on and off I have to adjust the belt.

Actually we have a lot of 5 foot uses using the TrekDesk simply by raising the incline feature of their treadmill. Keep in mind the suggested ergonomic height chart reflects a treadmill deck height of 10 inches by raising the incline or having a higher treadmill deck this can be accomplished.

I am 5' 2" (o.k. 5'1 3/4") ... have a Sole F85 Treadmill (checked 1st w/ TrekDesk to confirm it would work with that) .. have a mat under the treadmill .. using the Treadmill/ TrekDesk for approx. 1 month now... TrekDesk on lowest height... no probs. 5"0" should work just fine!

I'm 5'3 and I feel too short for it, so those heights might work! The fan is useless for a shorty like me. Machine is pretty quiet. I watch movies on my tablet without headphones, and it's fine.

No, I'm 5'3" and it works great. Almost too low so should be perfect for you

I am 5' 10" and it works great for me. There is even extra height I could go to so I don't think you should have an issue. It is one of the better units.

It may be...I believe there's one that's 5 inches high, that will probably work better. I'm 5'3" and wish I'd purchased the 5 inch one...

I can see it possible, but not for long.....I usually ride with my feet out on top (too crampy for my legs) and I'm 5'8 and it works fine, but there were a few times where the balance seemed to be off. Worth a try doing it though

I would imagine so, since you are only an inch above the "recommended" height limit. I want to say that you would just have a little more resistance than someone like me, which isn't a bad thing. Usually I find that any products I purchase through Amazon, which I am unsatisfied with for any reason, can be returned without penalty.

i dont think so. I'm 5'8 and my legs barely reach the ground with the seat low.

I am 5'5" and used this on the lowest setting. I think it would be tall enough for you.

I am 5'10". I use the stick at its fullest extension. It has 4 settings. If you put it on the shortest setting, it should work for you.

I am 5'10 and it worked for me. That's how i started. The moved up to using bands and now i am bangin them out like nothing.

I don't know.... I am 5'11"... I suppose you would need to perhaps have a chair or sitting arrangement lower and closer to the pedals.

I'm 5'5" and I have to reach on my tippy toes. I would imagine that if an individual was shorter than me then they will have issues. Of course you can resolve this as long as you have some sort of step stool that is bath friendly. It's still a great investment.

I suppose, but it may be pretty awkward. I guess it depends on how tall you were. I'm 6'2" so I would find it difficult.Also, the foot control is not easily accessible while standing.

Hello. I'm also 5 feet tall and wondering if anyone ever answered your question. I want to buy an elliptical and they all seem to cater to tall people! I had to have the pedals of last one I owned removed and moved forward, putting wood blocks underneath to also raise me up. Otherwise I the only way I could reach the handles was to walk in a leaning forward position. ANYONE out there with advice for us shrimps?

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.
