Is it easy to measure yourself? Or do you have to have someone else take the measurement?

It is easy. You or someone can do it. If you do, just stand on it and pull the small lever to the top of your head...that will be your measurement. So, technically, you don't need another person to do it for you.

What is the size of the shipping box?

Megan, The size of the shipping box for the Seca 213 is: 8 lbs, 24" x 14" x 9". Thanks - Ron, Southwestscales

can the Seca 213 Portable Measuring Rod be used in a lying down position?

I have been using mine for about a year and have found no way to use it with the subject lying down. It is a very nice item and much stronger than my first Seca from 5+ years ago. Thank you

Does this fold up? What are the dimensions of it folded up? Trying to find something that would fit in a duffle bag for field work.

It doesn't fold... It comes apart in 4 pieces so you can easily put it in a bag for field work. The only problem I had was one of them (I've used 3) the last piece was stuck in the base but I still could carry it around.

great for height enthusiasts!

It was easy to assemble and it is very accurate. Finally I know what height I am, and I'm not disappointed. Great for measuring the kids. Just press it towards the wall. There's a bar that attaches to the very top, which you need to press against the wall. Lean it against the wall. Perpendicular bar you affix on the very top. Wish I had a photograph, but I don't own a smartphone or digital camera.
