Does anyone happen to know what the minimum height of the ceiling should be in order for a 6'0" tall person to jump without hitting their head?

According to the Qibounding site, the recommended height is your height + 20 inches. Also account for ceiling fixtures such as lights and ceiling fans.http://www.qibounding.com/faq.html#CeilingHeighthttp://www.qibounding.com/rebounders...tructions.htmlHope it helps�

Hi Nate, there are multiple types of workouts. For normal bouncing, we recommend that your feet do not leave the mat. For a more intense workout, you do not need to jump higher, but rather, you need to keep your upper-body at a constant height, thus, working your legs harder. Simply as a safety warning, if you attempt to bounce rigorously and as high as you possibly can, you could potentially exceed 18 inches (1.5 feet) above the jumping surface, thus breaching an 8 foot high ceiling with a 6 foot tall jumper. THIS IS NEVER RECOMMENDED FOR ANY SIZE JUMPER. If you wanted to test for yourself, you could stand on a stool that is about 11 inches tall (when standing on a 12 inch tall Fitness Trampoline, your weight drops the mat height to about 11 inches) and determine how comfortable you are working out that close to your ceiling.

You shouldn't worry about it since you don't jump up on the rebounder, you jump down, that's the idea about it.

I'm six foot and I have more than enough headroom with an 8 foot high ceiling. A pedal at the bottom of it's orbit would be about 6 inches off the floor.

Honestly I can't say for sure but I bought this for my 3 year old son and he doesn't go higher than a couple of feet at this age; and it is presently in my living room with a 12f high ceiling. I think it depends on the age and height of your kid to average how high he 's going to go safely. But 24 ft sounds to much.

Hi Jill, Yes, the step up height is just about a foot. I would add that to your actual height for your ceiling clearance. So, for example, if the user is 6 ft, I would have at least a 7 ft ceiling clearance, maybe 7' 2" to be safe. Just let me know if I can be of more help. Best Regards, Andy

I am 5'10 and my wife is 5'6 and we have it in our basement with a 7 ft ceiling height. I have to use it with my shoes off but my wife can do it with shoes. I will say this that if I get on my tip toes with it on the highest incline I whack my head pretty good. My hair will hit the ceiling on a regular basis on any setting. But like you I really didn't have any other options so I just deal with it. I lean forward a little when using it and haven't had a problem yet. I have been using it for about 3 weeks but I am careful to pay attention to not whacking my head.

There are some moves in Insanity that require you to move side to side and front to back, so you'll probably need 8ft by 6ft area to work out in. The ceiling was only an issue when doing the High Jump exercise on the Core Cardio & Balance DVD. You shouldn't come close to your ceiling on any of the plyo exercises.

My ceilings are only 8ft and that gives us plenty of space for this trampoline. My kids are 3 & 5yrs old and they don't pass the top when they are jumping. I've jumped with them aswell and its still plenty of space.

The lowest part of the light globe is 16 inches from ceiling. I have 8 ft.(96 inch) ceilings. That gives me 80 inches(6 ft. 8 inches) to walk underneath the light. To fully answer your question, ceiling height and the height of the tallest person you expect to walk under the light would be needed.

We have 8' ceilings and I'm just under 6 feet tall and I'm far enough from the ceiling (probably at least 8-10 inches). However, be careful if you have a fan!

I think it depends on how little the people are that are shooting on it. I would say you want it ATLEAST 3-4 feet below the ceiling if you're an adult. Maybe you can go 1.5-2 ft from the ceiling if its a smaller child playing on it.

Yes, most likely you will. I am 5'2 and did not hit my head, however I believe my 5'10 brother was unable to use it. We put it in a basement with 7' ceilings as well

I had the same concern when I bought this machine. Our ceiling in our gym is only 7'6" but I still have more than the width of my hand above my head when I'm on the machine. I'm 5'11". Hope that helps.

We use it in our living room with standard height ceilings...I would say it depends on how tall the individual is and how aggressive they are in jumping. But it works great for our nearly 3 year old this winter.

I believe a 6 ft. 2 in. person would be at the top range of heights but would be okay as it has several height adjustment holes to use. Hope this helps.

I am 6' 3" and have 7' ceilings. I can use the machine comfortably but have to be wary of the small amount of clearance between my head and the ceiling.

No, Your head will hit the ceiling. You need at least 8' ceiling. The pedal at its highest is about 2' from the floor.

Yes, but not sure about the height from foor to ceiling...a person 6ft fits comfortably under
