Height When Lever is Raised I am seriously considering getting this machine but I have limited space - I wonder if someone can tell me the height of the machine when the lever is lifted. I know that the specs say 15" height, but I'm assuming that that is when the lever is closed? Thanks!

It is 14 1/2" when fully up. Our cabinets are 15 1/2 and it fits under them with space left. It is a wonderful machine and ease of use is terrific. My husband loves his.

It is a mere 5 inches. This was THE number one consideration for me due to a low basement ceiling height. This machine is one of the few, if not the only, affordable treadmills with a low deck height. Perhaps the lowest in its class.

Level 0 equals level and level 15 raises it about 6 inches. It is a very steep incline for working out. As to declining, it will go back to the level position; it does not go lower. For a good workout, have it go up and down during the workout.

From the floor to the highest point is 75" in total. It doesn't adjust from the floor as the description alludes to nor is it 75". That's 6' 1/4" tall. The lowest adjusted height is approximately 28 1/2". That is the measurement to the adjusting lever which is on the inside of the table. The The tallest is 39 1/2" at the lever. That's 11" of leeway. Add 3" from the lever to the bottom of the table. I found it ample space to work with. 75" What were they thinking. It's a good thing they weren't the builders of Stonehenge.

Looks like it's about 6 inches. You can automatically raise the front end for uphill exercise. it will go up to about one foot 3 inches at the front but you wouldn't be located at the front ... so a guestimate in the highest raised position, mid mat, you might be 8 or 9 or so inches. That said, unless you're in very very good shape, doubt you'd ever raise it that high. But the answer to your question is the step up and onto the mat is about 6 inches (frame on the side is slightly higher than the mat). Great machine...still love it! Good luck.

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!!

Mine has a "finger latch" toward the top of the handle. Loosen it and then you can pull up to extend to the desired height. Relock.

Stamina Body Trac Glider 1050 Rowing Machine....Does anyone know the MINIMUM height you can be to use this machine?? I am 5'1" and desparately want a rowing machine, but have very little $$ to invest. This sounds perfect for me but I did read one post that mentioned 5'4" being too short???

Hi Charmaine. First of all, I love this machine. Greatest purchase I've ever made. And I keep mine always open, using the suggested rubber mat, on carpet. Okay, now as far as height goes, I measured the length of the fullest extension (which correlates to your leg length, heel to top of leg), and it measures 37 inches. So depending on leg length will answer your question about a 6'3" person. You do want a full extension. And I guess I'd have to say there is no minimum height requirement. Your drag is in the blades pushing the water, the greater a workout you want, the faster you will need to row. I hope this answers your question. Please feel free to ask me anything.

I find the height adjustment VERY difficult to move and I am a very large strong man fyi Something must be broken on this or the manual is as bad as I believe in describing this as its just simply not fluidly doing it without me exerting extreme force. ... even then I cant seem to raise it to the top 3 levels. I can only lower it by pushing down extremely hard. Something has to be wrong here ... operator issues (machine seems to be smarter than me ) are a possibilty but ....I doubt it. Thoughts or help ?!?

I think it only looks bigger because handle is shown on the side..this is an open position to take top off. When it is closed the handle is in front. The bases are same size. It is a good little machine. Nice for smaller amounts but powerful. We bought one at first and then bought a second for an extra one. It's sound is a little high pitch but not something that is offensive. Doesn't take up much room either.

The height of the handle is the same as the length of the flat bed. The picture depicts the handle stored in the tubes on either side of the flat bed. Sorry, I don't have the exact measurement in front of me. This is a great piece of equipment.

Replaced my previous answer after double-checking the specs. The machine is 80 inches tall, so about 6'8". We set this up in a room that we re-purposed as a gym. I'm 6'4" and it is comfortable to use.

lever is on the left side. The lowest from seat to floor is 21 1/2 inches. The highest is 25 1/2 inches.

I do not know what you mean by setup height. Let me tell you about my situation. I am 5' 11". My machine is in a finished attic with an 8' celing. I have plenty of hear clearance while on the machine at its highest incline.

you adjust the height by using the lever on the side but in order to use the lever you have to make sure you remove the black piece from the air pump before you put together the chair

that height is fine, it depends more on foot size! :) My feet are US 13, and they didn't clear the cross bar at back of machine, so kept hitting it. See my notes on how to raise the platform up so bigger feet will clear it. I understand the more expensive one has corrected the problem. I'd get the more expensive one if at all possible, not worth the trouble to alter the cheaper one unless you got it at a steal. enjoy
