Default Re: Hearth Height and operator ratio science!

Having suffered through the very low countertops and sinks in Japan (not to mention the low doors), I intentionally tried to go a little high, so I wouldn't have to be bending over to see in the oven.

I'm 73 inches tall, the hearth is 40.5 inches gives me a ratio of .555, so not much different than yours Jim. It seems to be a good height for me.
