BENCH SIZING:

Small - height in kneeling position is roughly 6.5”, intended for persons under 5’3”

Medium - height in kneeling position is roughly 7.5”, intended for persons between 5’3” and 5’10”

Large - height in kneeling position is roughly 8.5”, intended for persons over 5’10” or individuals with long legs or restricted movement

*To evaluate for proper sizing, sit on a stack of books (roughly measured to the above-mentioned heights) with legs to either side of the stack in a reclined kneeling position (to mimic the kneeling position on the bench).

Note: positioning cushions under the knees will limit the spacing under the bench. If this will be common practice then consider purchasing a taller bench. This method may be desirable for those who need more joint comfort or for persons of smaller stature.
