I am 5' 9" tall and I keep hitting my head on the outer edge/metal of the shelter. Is that normal? Does it go higher?

Sounds like you don't have it extended enough. There should be three height levels. After you have expanded the base and attached the top, you extend each leg upward until it clicks into place. This is the lowest setting. You should be able to extend each leg two more "notches" if you will.

I have never had it that high. I can stand under it. I'm 5'6''. I'll check this weekend.

I am 6' tall and my hair hits the ceiling sometimes but don't bump my head at 85" ceiling height. I would recommend about an 85" ceiling height for you if you don't want your hair to hit the ceiling.

I suppose it depends on how tall you are, but not really. I am 5'8" and it hits me about mid-low part of the back of my head. I can rest on it, but it doesn't cushion my whole head. I just measured mine and it looks like about 25 inches from where the seat meets it to the top.

I'm a slender woman of average height. When I crawl into this tent, my backside scrapes the top of the door frame. Also, the big bad wolf could blow this thing down in a heartbeat. Other than that, it works great.

I'm 5'9 and at first the bench felt a bit high, but I read a post about putting the bench into the first incline position which just slightly tips up the top and lowers the bottom of the bench and this allowed me to put my feet flat on the ground without feeling like the bench is in an incline position. If this is still too tall for you, you could place your feet on the feet of the bench which will elevate them a bit. Your best bet would be to find a place where you can try it out. I really hope this bench works for you because this is an amazing bench for the price. Their Dumbbells are next on my list of products. I am officially an Ironmaster fanboy now.

I have not measured it with the cover on, but just to give you an idea. I am 5' 8" tall and the very top of the gazebo is about nose height. You can use it without the cover if you need it shorter you just have to remove the the gazebo top (which is easy to do) or not install them and then you have more of a pen. Just a side note...I use this at my campground, at the end of the season, I removed the Gazebo cover and left the gazebo standing in my lot. I must say that even after the harsh winter it still looks like new! I have received many offers from other campers to buy this from me! I tell them no way but they can get it here on Amazon. I absolutely love this little shelter.

Not high at all. I claimed to be an indoor/outdoor bed buts it's really an indoor bed.

I bought this in July. I'm only 5 inches taller than you & it's plenty low enough for me. Maybe a little lower than I would like even, but overall I love it...so I don't think it should be a problem. Hope this helps.

I am 5'-10" with an 88" ceiling height. I have the same question. Spoke with Schwinn customer service but they couldn't help. Suggested I go to a store and try it out and measure how high my head goes!

My wife's 5'4" as well, and ours is set at the step above the lowest setting. No problem.

If you're the only one in it yes. I'm 6' and found that my feet and head are right on the edges. I'd recommend sleeping slightly angled to give you the most room.

Not full sized chairs, your head will hit the roof. I don't use chairs in the shelter.

I personally, started on lowest setting and discovered I wanted raised to went to the next high spot. After a week I still thought a raise would be more comfortable so I raised it one more hole. I find it now very comfortable. I am 5'10" if that helps.

I'm 6' 3" using the tranp in a room with a 9' ceiling. My most energetic sessions put my head within a foot of the ceiling. I do not raise my arms above shoulder level so have no concern about height. That is about all I can offer to help you decide. I use the tranp almost every day. I hope this has helped.

Yes, > 6 ft high. My husband can walk under without having to bend. It is the largest shelter I've seen other than doubles. We left one up all winter (NW OR) as a patio shelter--it's only good for one season like that but was cheaper than a patio roof! I keep one in my camper, and have a new one stored in my garage for future use.

Not quite that low even for me at 5'4". It could reach higher at the shoulder level though by adjusting the whole thing up a little. The only adjustment is really horizontal, for a wider area but not up and down.Good luck.
