Got this chair as a gift from my wonderful boss on my third anniversary at work. It is fantastic! I started a wellness program in March of 2008, including Yoga and Pilates and this chair blends right in. I would recommend it to anyone with back pain that wants to strengthen thier core.
I bought this for my son who has ADHD and it has helped him tremendously! He sits on it while he reads, eats, plays on his iPad, and does family activities around the kitchen table. It really helps him to focus. Thank you for such a fantastic product!
have not had this chair that long, but have found myself sitting up straighter while using it
I would recommend this to a friend!

I have persistent lower back pain when I spend too much time sitting at my desk, which is a bad thing for someone who works in a cubical all day! I've been using it for a few weeks now, and I've noticed I don't wake up in the morning with back pain any more. It makes me use good posture for the most part, or at least I am more conscious of it. It is definitely worth the price.
I've only been using the Classic Balance Ball chair for a short time, but I love it. It has absolutely helped me with posture issues and it's very comfortable. I recommend this product to people that have "slouch" habits!
I suffer from Sciatica pain and I sit at a computer at work all day. I bought this chair to replace my desk chair at work and love it. It has helped strengthen my back and helped alleviate most of my sciatica pain. I can not say enough positive things about this chair!!!
It has helped my lower back pain immeasurably! I can wake in the morning with a muscle spasm in my lower back but after sitting at work in my "ball chair" for a bit......IT'S GONE! It has also helped tone and strengthen my core! Double benefit!
I bought this over a year ago because my antique chair was hard on my tailbone and now my back pain has eased up. I am on my feet all day and need a good chair to help my back. I am 5' and have a high desk and have no problem reaching and typing. The ball has needs more air periodically to make sure it does not sink down in base.
