What is the minimum ceiling height for this? In other words, what is the maximum stride height of this machine?

I don't have exact measurements but I would say that when you are at the highest elevated position you are probably pretty close to a good 2 - 2.5 feet up. I have vaulted ceilings so I never even thought about it.

Do you mean what the measurement is floor to ceiling of the machine our what height the petals are

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.

The maximum height of the pedals is 14-16 inches off the floor depending on where you measure. I am not sure you need to add that total height as when one foot/leg is up, the other is down. Your legs tend to compensate.

I think that if you put your foot over the fan it is about 18 to 19 inches. As someone said you can put your feet between the pedals and sit down, which would be about 8 inches. It is a very joint-friendly machine.

At maximum incline (level 20) the average height of the foot pedals is roughly 18" from the floor. The maximum height from the floor of a single pedal is 24" but the weight will be shifted to the lower pedal then.

Mine is under standard 8 ft ceiling, the petals are not that high, maybe 12".I am 6'3" and I am within 6" of ceiling.Great elliptical!

I don't know what the exact height is but since my kids got it for Christmas, they didn't want to wait until nice weather to use it. My husband put it together in our garage and they used it in there during the winter until it warmed enough to moved outside. Our garage has 12 foot ceilings and their was still more than enough room above the trampoline. My best guesstimate is it is about 8 to 9 feet tall. I hope that helps.

Hi there, I own one of these and I'm really happy with it so far. The motor end is ~9.5 inches high. It also has two wheels which will make it easier to stash under a bed, I am able to move it around by myself.

From the floor to the pedal at the highest point is 11". Unless you have very long legs it should work. I'm 5' 6" and put it under my desk at home and it was fine. You can always return it if it doesn't work for you. It is very quiet.

no foot pedals are 10inches off the ground minimum and as you pedal on the machine you will rise up and down making it extremely difficult not to hit your head.

1. Yes, the stride length is great for me and I am 5' 8", it is not adjustable but I am OK with is as-is. 2. The machine is not loud. I watch TV with it all the time. 3. Yes.

I'm 5'11 and the machine is set in a room with an 8' ceiling and I get close to the ceiling but have approximately 8" remaining at it's highest setting.

I am 5'5" and have an 8 ft ceiling. Even with my arm straight up I cannot reach the ceiling when jogging in place. With the factory setting your feet will sink some into the trampoline if you are jogging. My feet rarely leave the mat. I like it that way. It feels safe and secure.

Just ordered this, and it is up and running at our house! The feet are about 3-4 inches. Sorry, not going to get out the tape measure! :)

I know longer have the machine, so I could not tell you. I got rid of it as fast as I could because it constantly needed repair. Do yourself a favor and look at the Smooth 8.0. 100 times better made and has the best ceiling to floor clearence. Pedals are 1 inch off the floor.

I'd say about four inches but the stride is around eleven inches. I have nine foot ceilings and when I'm on it I'm probably around 6 feet off the ground (as a five ft seven woman) hope this helps!

Depends partly on how tall you are. :) Mine is in a room with 8' ceiling (96"). Pedals are 20" off the ground at peak of cycle. I'm 5'-11" (71") so my head at 91" is 5" clear of the plaster. I suggest you do your own arithmetic.
