I use this balance ball chair at my desk in the yoga studio. After adjusting the air, the firmness is now right for me. I find that you really have no choice but to align one vertebrae on top the other and that's GOOD! I should have bought the one without the back on it as this one takes up more room and you don't lean against the back anyhow.
I enjoy my Gaiam exercise ball chair. Sitting at my desk is no longer a drag! I feel that I am getting some exercise while I am sitting. It's really great!
I would recommend this to a friend!

I love this Chair!

I purchased this chair after my brother-in-law (who is a chiropractor) recommended it. Although some of my office mates gave me some good natured ribbing, I have to say I do not regret getting this chair at all. It took some time to use it all day, but I think that it has really helped my back and overall posture. After just 2 weeks, my husband said that I looked taller this morning. I highly recommend this chair.
So I felt the chair work immediately! Even as at first the ball couldn't be inflated to max capacity. However just like I have read from other reviewers here, the wheels lock up quite easily. It's definitely something that I am aware of almost as much as my core while in the chair. Still awesome product! But I dunno. I may actually just buy spare wheels from other chairs to see if that may help?
My back feels so much better. I would definitely recommend this chair to anyone who has to sit for long periods of time.

I no longer feel like I'm 80

I work from home and sit in front of a computer all day. This chair helps me stay focused because it keeps me upright and moving around. Also, I don't feel like I'm 80 years old when I get up.
I love the chair. It is very easy to sit in all day long at the office. I was concerned that I would have to work my way up to sitting on it that long, but that was not the case. First day I was able to sit the whole time. The only negative is the back rest is too far back to actually be used for support. I did hook on a lumbar log-type pillow and that now gives my back something to rest on or at least a mark to meet to keep me sitting up straight and help my back stay in the proper position. Other than that I think the chair will help to maintain and improve balance, core strength and leg & butt tone.
