The handle won't raise more than a couple inches. It says "For 5 and up, and 143 lb weight limit." I assumed this meant the handle would raise as high as our old Razor. My daughter is 4'11 and 85 pounds. Tall and very skinny. I bought this as a birthday present and am really disappointed that it won't work for my momentarily excited and then deflated kiddo. She can't ride it all stooped over. :'(
