The Zooper Twist has a 42 inch height to the top of the handles. See: http://www.zooper.com/Twist%20Specs%20Zooper%202009.htmlThese handles are not adjustable; you are correct. :)

I can't say a specific max height but my guy is in the 50th percentile at 2.5 and he is still a bit too short for this. I will say that he struggles to steer it a bit. It's hard to turn. This maybe part of the training features?? We aren't too bothered by it but we also have a high quality balance bike that his older brother just gave up (cause he's riding a pedal bike like a pro!)

No it cant, however I am 5'8" and my husband is 6'2" I have to say these handle bars are perfect for us. I have the Vista also and I always use the handle bars at the highest point, the G-Luxe has handle bars that are just as high as the Vista at full height. This umbrella stroller was made for taller people in my opinion.

Sheila, I'm 6-1 and find the fully extended handles to be perfect at 38 inches. Also, they quickly drop all the way down to arm rest height of 32" when using the Breeze to sit on. The lowest seat height is 22" and can be raised I will often walk around then drop the handles (practically instantly), spin around and sit comfortably. I did order the optional backrest from a 3rd party for $30 and will be getting the cane clip attachment for $25 next. I don't believe these accessories are available on Amazon, a quick internet search will give you options.

Please? Anybody? If anyone is 5 feet tall or around there and has used this machine or others (418, 431, 438) in this line, please drop a line here and tell me what you think of it? I am particularly interested in what kind of reach it takes to grip the handlebars while striding. Does it bend you forward to reach them or can you do so in relative comfort without straining your back? ANY input is greatly appreciated!!

I am 5 3 and the handle is a tiny bit short for me. Never measured the hight of the handle. If you are a tall person get Dogger stroller from dog quality. It is $250 but every penny is worthed.

I am only 5'2" but my husband is 6' and he finds it a comfortable height. It was something we did check when we tried out the different strollers before buying because I had read reviews where some taller people thought the height uncomfortable. My son-in-law is 6'4" and I can have him push it to see what he thinks and let you know. He is on vacation right now but will be home at the end of the week.

I'm 6'2". Handle height is fine for me. As for the child, he should be good. Have a daughter about the same size, and still riding like a champ in the thing! Hope this helps you.

The handle does not telescope, but it is 42" from the ground. I am 5 ft.5" and I raise my hands to hold the handle bar. I think you should be okay. It is a GREAT stroller!

I ordered these for the same reason - for a Britax stroller. My husband is 6'8. Unfortunately, we could not use them. The extension is only big enough for one hand, so you have to push the stroller with only one hand all of the time. That didn't work for us, so I returned the item.

It is not adjustable, and not sure exactly how tall. But I am 5'6", my husband is 5'11", and my father in law is 6'3". We can all use it completely comfortably. Great stroller!

It adds length so it helps stride. My husband is 6'6". We use the Chico stroller, it adjusts higher. But when we want to use something less bulky we use the city jogger stroller with the easy stroll handle and it's pretty comfortable for husband. I'm 5'8" and it works great for me as well. You will find that you walk sort of to the side of stroller. The handle is for one hand and is installed in center of handle bar which is a plus for longer legs

No the handle isn't adjustable but I'm 5'8" and it's very comfortable for me to use so I don't see any problem for you. All 3 of us love this stroller, me and my two cats.

Handle is height adjustable. Should be OK for individuals up to 6'. I'm 6'2". Took granddaughter to Disneyland. Handle adjusted to max height was very slightly too low for me, but not uncomfortable.

My husband is 6'1" and I am 5'5" so we have a pretty good separation as well. My husband says that this stroller is the most comfortable we had tried and I haven't had any trouble with it being too high or uncomfortable for my hands either. I do not think you can adjust the handle height (or if you can, it's not obvious and we haven't tried) but neither myself, my husband, or any of our family members have been uncomfortable with it.

M, Hi there, when I am out running I usually push the stroller ahead of me (like give a shove and let it roll) and run behind it, so the height of the stroller is not an issue. I stand by my review: greatest invention ever. I recommend the rain cover as well, enables you to run in the rain and in cold temperatures.
