Umbrella stroller for tall person/adjustable height

I know this has been asked before.. but search is so not helpful...

I am headed to a consignment sale in 30 min and want to hunt out a good umbrella stroller.

DH is 6'2 and I'm 5'4 so we would need an umbrella stroller that could work for both a taller person and an average person.  The UBV works wonderfully for us because of the three adjustments in the handle height.  Do any umbrella strollers have a feature like this? Any suggestions on what to look for in an umbrella stroller or what ones to buy/what to not buy?

Thanks!

    I just bought the uppababy gluxe and the handles do seem higher. I use the vista as my main stroller and have the handles at the lowest setting, and the gluxe handles are higher than the lowest set in the vista.
    The handles are not adjustable on the Gluxe

    check out the Uppa baby G Luxe or G Lite. We saw it at Buy Buy Baby this weekend. It was a great height for my DH who is 6'6 and fine for me at 5'5

    A regular cheapie umbrella stroller was a joke for him
