I am 5'7 165lbs and my husban 5'11 190lbs is this treadmill too small for us? Only a few people mentioned their height and weight and they were 5'2

Sounds like you are about the height of the woman in the picture of the treadmill. It was recommended by a man who was about 5'11 and was a personal trainer. It should be fine. I used it because it fit under my stand-up desk. I still use it there.If I had it to do over again I would look for one with a small footprint, like this, but with padding in the platform. It has worked fine for a few years now. We had to adjust the belt a couple of times because it would get off center and rub against the side making noxious smells of burning tread. But once we adjusted it was fine.

I wouldn't know. My wife is the one who uses the machine. She is 4'8" and weighs 145lbs

My husband is 6' 1 and 190 lbs and I am 5' 2 and 135 lbs and the stride length is fine. The foot bed looks a little narrower than commercial treadmills, but it is fine for both of us. We use it at a maximum of 4 mph.

Size doesn't matter...I'm five feet tall and husband 5' 10.... Both have used it. Be sure and get the trampoline attachment if yours doesn't come with it, that is if you want to do cardio. It's worth the extra money

This has been a great treadmill for us. I really enjoy it but I know everyone is different but it has been wonderful for us. Hope this helps...i read many reveiws before even buying this one last year and so far it hasn't disappointed us.

Dear David, I don't think I can recommend the Weslo CardioStride 3.0, the instruction booklet that came with the machine said 'the treadmill should be used pnly by persons weighing 250 lbs (113 kg) or less'. I measured the platform under the tread belt and it measures 1/2 inch. You may want to check with a professional at a gym to give you the name of a machine that would be better suited to your physical stature.

I only 5'2", so can't speak for my experience. However, my room mate is 6'3" and uses it as a cycle sometimes. He doesn't seem to have any problems. I think the stride length would probably be an issue if you wanted to use it as an elliptical.

I am very short (under 5 ft, but that's all I'm saying...) and it's a good workout for me. I think if you're exceptionally tall, you might have a bad time.

I'm not a great source for an answer on this unfortunately; I would check to see if there are specs available on the shwinn site in regard to weight since I don't think you can find that on amazon. I will say if you are much taller than 5'10" you may find it too short. I believe there is a version with larger wheels if you're tall. Sorry I'm not much help=(

Some specs I found on another site indicated this is rated to 250 lbs. However, I would not recommend anyone "sizeable" use this, it is definitely intended for smaller/lighter/shorter people. I Definitely wouldn't recommend it for anyone over 200 lbs or over 5 ft 2 or 5 ft 3 at most because the motor isn't sufficient for higher weights and the stride/tread is much too short for long legs.

If you are 6'5"... you are likely to be a heavier person. I am 5'9" and weighed 215 lbs when I started using mine. I destroyed the wheels in the seat rollers 4 times in the space of 8 months. This trac is nice and cost effective but my thinking is that it is for a person that is no heavier than maybe 185. At 6'5" you would also be restricted. The dimensions of the machine are probably not long enough for you spans.

I am 5'2 and have one. It it a stretch to reach the pedals. I have to wear shoes with a thick sole in order for my feet to make the rotation. I find that my back hurts after riding mine because it stretches me to an unnatural position while riding. I have even ordered another seat, which was very expensive, thinking that it might help. So NO, they don't take short people into consideration when building their bikes. If you could lower the seat, it would be ideal.

I purchased one several years back and loved it. I am 5'8" about 175. You can use this to get cardio - I have done it easily. You can really push your workout and get cardio within 20 or so minutes or less. You can lean forward or back to increase the tension (your weight is the tension). You can push the handles faster, you can generate the widest range of motion - good for your joints. I recently have used rowers because they work in my space better, but I LOVE the Gazelle - great for the money. Good luck!

Hi! I'm also 5 ft tall and was wondering the same thing. Is there others who are around this height and found the machine comfortable?

I use the machine and I'm 6'5, 250 lbs. When doing some exercises I need to lift my feet in the air because There is no where on the glideboard to put them when I'm laying down. But that makes it a better workout because I'm using my abdominals. As far as weight is concerned, I do some explosive excercises on the machine and it doesn't move or slide on the floor and the machine is pretty sturdy. I use the weight bar to add extra weight making the machine carry the maximum load of 350 lbs. The machine is solid. I definitley recommend it. I use it in combination with free weights. I love it.

I'm 5'2 and it's just perfect but for 5'10 it might be a little to low.It pays to have one it's just so much fun and exciting. I lost quiet a few inches. Great exercise and loads of fun just you have to see if the size will work for you. Good luck

I'm 160 and 5"7. I don't have any problems with the machine shaking or wobbling. I am pleased with it.

yes I'm 5'7 and I can walk on it... it says it can hold up to 220 pounds I'm 170 and when I run I just don't feel like its enough room on the treadmill

I don't think it's tall enough for a treadmill. You'll have to look down in order to use it. You COULD use it, probably if you put it on a step stool and then you could swing it over in front of you. There may be better options out there? Good luck with your search!
