I am 5'1 is the 4" or the 6" Hip cushion better?

I suggest 4" which I sat on after hip surgery; first in the wheelchair, then on any low chairs/sofa for months until I was stronger. It has an attached sturdy strap to use or not, and a zippered cover. This cushion stays comfortably firm. I recommend it

I am 6'2" and use the 4" hip cushion very comfortably. The 6" would be too high for you. Good luck.

My husband is 6 foot tall, but uses the cushion because of his bad hip. So I guess it really depends on how cushy you need it. I am 5'3 myself and would probably just order the 4." He does like the cushion and we take it where he has to sit in low seats, theaters, etc. that don't have much height or padding. So, if you have really low seats you sit in and are using the cushion to add extra height for sitting and or more cushy on the tushy then maybe order the 6" one. I don't know, really is lifestyle and how much cushion you need?

Measure the existing seat height and see which measurement will put the upper part of your body where you want it to be when you are sitting.

I'm also 5'1, and I would recommend 4" -- following surgery, this was so thick and firm that I never really used it.

I'm 6"1' and I think it will work for you. I like the adjustments that you can make and it is comfortable. Fairly easy to put together.

Seat is firm but comfortable if you like firm.I am 5'4" and the height is fine for me, but at 6'2", my husband is not comfortable sitting on them.

My guy is 6'1" 250 lbs and uses the cushion on long drives. It makes you taller and makes him cautious when getting in but once in the Yaris he does just fine.

In my opinion, it is better for a short person. Your knees aren't as prone to hitting or rubbing on the ibert seat.

I am 165 cm, leg length - 95 cm. So high seat but small frame works for me. You have to find out for you self, there are many videos on youtube to help you determine size. I already had an old medium frame, mongoose cycle and it was hurting my upper body from too much leaning forward. I find upright seating is more comfortable and less tiring. Higher seat made me lean forward more on a medium size. So the standard recommendation didn't work for me. My preferred seat height is when only my toe finger can reach the earth, that is, both feet can't reach the ground simultaneously.

I would get the longer one. I'm 5'6" and need every inch of the long one. You can't go shorter but you can always work with longer.

I believe one is fuller and firmer then the other...but the one we got is fantastic. Ecspecially if you have a bad back or hips...good buy...

Sorry it took so long to answer. The holidays and a cold... Anyway... I measured and it's 17 inches. It may not sound very high but I'm 5'6" and it's actually comfortable. I've had both hips replaced and just had lower back surgery and it's still easy for me to use. Hope this is helpful.

I'm no expert but my wife got the smaller one which is perfect for her (5' 4"). I have tried it (5' 8") and it is fine. I can't imagine its being a problem for someone who is 5' 6".

I am a full figured woman and the bigger pillow was more the adequate. I guess the size of your butt is what matters. Small butt, small pillow. Bigger butt, go with bigger pillow. Hope this helps.

I'm 6'2" and can rest my head comfortably on the back with room to spare. My wife is 5'1" and finds it very comfortable as well. The only 'issue' I have is that the leg rest is pretty short - it comes to my calves, however offers enough support to counter the additional leverage and is comfortable for me. My wife's feet sit right on the end.

I am 5' 11" and my head rests on the back cushion. It is a very comfortable height and the cushion was softer than I anticipated.

If you want to completely stretch out, the 6' is probably the better choice. I bought the 5' for my 3-yr-old. We can sit comfortably together. It does take up quite a bit of space so make sure you have the room. Hope this helps.

I'm 6' and 260lbs and fit fine. The leg positioning is adjustable and that helps control your balance point. My wife is 5'5" and we use different adjustment positions but it works basically the same for both of us. Hopefully someone taller will chime in but that may help if not.

Im 6 foot and it comes up to almost my knee. So maybe a foot or 2 the more expensive is way bigger and a little more effeftive small 1 works wonders though no complaints

I am 6'1" and it is comfortable for me to push and move around with. I don't have to bend or hunch over.
