Our lift didn't work either. We contacted the mfg and they shipped out a replacement no questions asked.

Push the lever UP under the seat on the RIGHT hand side and the seat should go down until you are comfortable

the lowest part of the seat is 15 inches above ground. The elastic ties holding the canvas seat to the frame would make it even lower when you sat down. this may make it too difficult for you to get up out of the chair.

Just hold the back of the chair and with the other hand grab the front of the seat and pull upward, it is a little tight but it works. Great chair

Lean on the seat of the stool and pull the chrome lever up to lower the height. Just pull the lever up with no weight and the seat will go higher.

I'm 5 foot seven and the chair was too high for my feet to touch the ground, and that was at the lowest setting it would go. I only use it occasionally at my desk. I had to purchase a different brand you use on a daily basis. But the chair was at a good price. I hope this was some help to you. Otherwise I think it would be comfortable it's well-made.

At the lowest setting, I can barely get my heels on the ground when sitting upright. I've given the chair away since, so I don't have it anymore. I specifically remembering that the chair height was an issue though. I'm 5'10". The wife's feet were completely off the ground; she's 5'0". Hope that helps.

Hi Jennie!This is not a chair for to use as a desk.. My hairstylist and I have tried on several occasions to lower the chair to no avail.. what you see above is the lowest this chair will go..

There is quite a bit of adjustment for the distance between the chair and the peddals, however, the upper handle might be too high for you. There is no way to lower the handle/display part.

Larry, I thought I would try it on our chair, which in love......I accidentally pulled the back into the higher position too!! Lol. I can't figure it out either! Lol. Now I will have to follow this to get my chair back to the right spot. This is all too funny!

Yes, there is a screw on the bottom of the foot rest that when loosed allows you to adjust the length. You have to turn the chair upside down to see this, or make an adjustment.

The same lever in back that raises and lowers the chair...pulls out to the side to release the tilt. You may need to sit in the chair and lean a little forward or back to get the lever to release.

Suggest you sit on the chair and push up with your legs until you get the height you need. Hope you like your chair as much as I do

I 'm not even 5'2" so got the smaller size & had to cut it. Instructions say to stand in shoes, hands to side, measure from floor to break or bend in wrist & add 1/8". That was too long for me to use as a seat so I cut it even shorter. You could also ask the manufacturer @ 888-355-5440. Good luck!

i believe you can let some air out to lower it a bit, but i'm not sure it's advised. i am 5'2" and it is a good height for me with or without heels. conversely, a co-worker who is 5'8" also uses one without issue. the stool will bend to accommodate shorter individuals while retaining it's height for taller individuals. hope this helps - i love my ergo!

An easy way to set up the chair is to place the ground support leg, that has the bar with the little knob at its end, against your chest. Then turn the bar with the little knob at its end toward the other bar with the holes in it so that it rests below the bar with the holes in it. Then line them up, and with just a little pulling force on the other leg (the one that has the bar with the holes in it), insert the bar with the knob into one of the holes. I use the last hole (it's the easiest). I think the other holes are there for when the chair starts to shrink once it's used a bit and starts to loosen up.
