The dimensions make it sound very short. How does it affect one's back (I'm 6'3" and a bad back is the reason for considering this purchase)? Thanks.

I am a 5"10 female. This snow blower is well worth the purchase. I am not petite by any means. This snow blower is not afraid to go through some pretty good size drifts. It did not have any affect on my back. So I hope this helps a little. So easy to assemble that was a big plus.

I am 6'2", also with a bad back. I have had no issues using the Snow Joe. It is extremely lightweight and easy to maneuver.nkb

I'm 5'7"....this unit is very easy for me to use. Light enough for me, I had a few back surgeries . You will need to bend down a bit.

I am 6'1" and even though I did have to bend over a little bit , the shovel did all the work. Thankful for not having to manually shovel.

I'm not much help as I am 5'1""! However it has been a great snow blower for me. This is my third season with it.

Elizabeth, may I ask how it's working out for you - IF - you are using this? I am very petite also, and am wondering how it will work, especially since it's pre-tied in the back? (if I'm not misunderstanding descriptions ;)Any further explanations and tips about how it works for you, would be greatly appreciated!! Thank you in advance! Blessings... :)

My husband is 5'7". He isn't sure but really doesn't see why it wouldn't be good for a 6'3" person.

I am 5'2 and it's very comfortable for me. It feels so light weight (and easy) when pushing it that I would think it would work for you, too!

I didn't like the backrest as the contour didn't fit my body properly. It did fit my son, so I gave the unit to him. I am 5'3" and he is almost 6'. IDK if that helps, but it just was uncomfortable for me.

It depends on how tired you are. If you are tall like I am at 6 foot 2 inches, the distance from the back stop to where the horizontal cushion ends is a little short. Other than that, the micro fiber material feels great and overall the chair is pretty sturdy.

It was not that short. I am 5"3" and my husband is 5'7". And he had no problem using it. I was great to use. I am glad that my husband bought it.

This chair is small. If you are 6' tall, expect problems. It doesn't recline fully, and takes a fair chunk of space behind it.

I've had back problems and I find this very comfortable. I'm about 5'8" and the backrest fits snugly in the small of my back. But the height of the backrest is not adjustable, so if you are taller than me, you might not like this. But, for the price, I really like this chair.

I am only 5'2" so, obvi. it's fine for me but yea.. it is on the smaller side. Someone who has about 6" on me might be snug or not have enough leg room.

I am only 5'5" and it is fine on my back for the most part. Sometimes I use a lumbar pillow though bc of the curve in the back is a little higher than where i need it to be. It is probably built for a taller person. The good thing is the back is totally adjustable to any position, including the arms. They go up, down, foward and back.It is a very comfy chair

I am also 5'3 and bought the small one. I don't care for it. Frankly, I think it's still too big. I find it uncomfortable after about 20 minutes. Perhaps my legs are just too short, but I find when I lie for a while with my legs over the top, it pulls on my spine, rather than letting my spine relax. I can't recommend it.

No! I am in the midst of moving and just sold my bed so I am currently using this as a bed... I am 5'6 and my feet hang off. That is largely due to the fact that your head cannot rest where the back of the chair is b/c part of the edge of the chair digs into your ribs. Sorry to disappoint!!

I think it is a good size in length and it should not be an issue for taller people. My company always comments on it being very comfortable. Hope this helps!

I'm 5'8" and find it very comfortable. It's ability to flex/lean may be why it seems to accommodate so many different people. I needed to take a break after the first 3-4 hours using it because I felt tired, but I haven't gone back to the office chair since that first day.I don't know if there is a way to raise or lower it. That's a good question for the seller.

Hello there. I am male, 5' 10" tall, and weigh 142 lbs (sorry for using US measurements). I am very skinny and have a "bad" back for many years. However, I found the BackJoy (the higher version) to be completely useless. Great concept, poor execution: it's simply too small. The lumbar support portion does not come up high enough and the upper thigh portion is too short and too narrow. Sitting on the BackJoy requires you to remain in a single position. I wish it were otherwise, but this product did not perform as otherwise. I don't know what the solution is to uncomfortable chairs except having an up-scale chair that, sadly, costs a few hundred dollars.

For someone 5'3" it would have a more corrective curve effect and may take more time to get used to for an entire nights sleep. For someone 6'3" the influence of curve correction (in back sleeping) would be mlld, more of a gentle, preventitive support. Either way (correction or prevention) you benefit.
