Stroller handle bar height

Hi! I'm struggling to find the perfect stroller as I'm 5 feet 2. I recently tested the Nuna Triv and loved everything about it except for the handle bar height! The lowest is still slightly high for me. I was just wondering if anyone had this problem and if it's one of those issues that aren't so bad over long term or will it cause a lot of discomfort instead?

Hey! I am 5ft1 😬 and I've gone for the egg strollers and the handles go down quite low and feel perfect so think they would be good for you too :-) xxx

I have an uppababy Vista which has an adjustable handlebar. It works well for us because DH is much taller than me, and it takes literally one second to adjust it, so we can adjust between us if we're out together.

I'm not sure if it will go low enough for you as I am a bit taller than you, but I would recommend giving it a try in the shop.

I have the oyster, it's perfect.

I'm 5ft and my partner is 6ft 6", we have the Babylo Panorama and it's perfect Smile

Venicci travel system has various heights and it goes up really high and downwards too.

Was great for me 5ft1 and dh 6ft4.

I’m 5ft3 (rounded up 🤣) and I have the cybex priam and the handlebar goes low enough for me 😊

I'm 4' 10'' and had the ickle bubba stomp and that was fine for me when I had it on the lowest setting.

I’m 5,1 and have gone for the Egg. In the past I’ve had icandy, bugaboo, mamas and papas, all sorts. Love never found an issue with handle bar height tbh

Oyster is great for us, I’m 5’3” and husband 6’4”

I'm 5ft1 and have the egg stroller. I find it really comfortable at the lowest setting. I also have a Phil and Ted's dot which is comfortable at the lowest setting as well although I can't actually see over the top of it.

I remember trying the uppababy vista in mother care and I couldn't see in front of me when pushing it!

I've a bugaboo bee: I'm 5 foot 6 but I have to put it up quite a way to be comfortable, and it goes up high enough for my husband at 6" so I'd say its very flexible - it goes v v low.
