I really like my new chair

I made a deal with my daughter that I would start exercising to improve my health. I've seen chairs like this in some offices and thought that it may be a good start. I found this chair online and am so glad that I bought one. I already notice improved posture and I am aware of it even when I am other places, like driving in the car. It is easy to move around during the day to do some small steps toward exercising, and it has encouraged me to so other things too. I recommend it to anyone who wants to start toward a healthier way of "sitting around the office" and being aware of small ways to strengthen your core. Next I need one for my home.
I would recommend this to a friend!

We ordered (3) for our workplace and will be ordering another one. We were pleased to find out that you can blow this up quite a bit to make it taller, or less to make it shorter to match our individual needs. One employee is 5 ft 2 in and another 5 ft 7 in and it works for both. C/S was quick to respond to help us determine this as we were reluctant to blow up the ball too much.

I sit at a computer, both at work and at home. Over the years this has caused neck and back issues. I tried one of these for my home office and liked it so much i purchased a second for the office. It takes a few days to get used to but I think it has definitly helped keep me sitting properly and hopefully keep my adjustments in line longer.

I have used these chairs for at least 10 years. They are inexpensive and have saved my back. I believe this is the third one I have ordered. Even my assistant uses one now.

I work from home and the chair I was using calls me upper back pain after a long day of sitting and working. I decided to try the balance ball chair and after the first day of using it all day, I could tell a big difference in my back... No pain at all at the end of the day! I would recommend this for anyone who sits for long periods of time.

this chair has improved alertness around the office. i feel noticeably lethargic when i switch a regular chair. unfortunately the temp in the room is reflected in the temp of the ball so just a word or warning to those in a skirt!!

Love my chair

Purchased this chair a short while ago and very glad I did. Initially I thought it was a little strange looking and because of that wondered why anyone would buy it? However, I have been treating two Herniated discs/Sciatica in my lower back for over a year and concluded maybe I should give it a try if it might help to make me mend. My therapist thought it might help but to initially use it for short periods and built up to longer stints because it does work your core muscles and too much too soon is like too much exercise and in my condition not necessarily good for you either. Have been using it as a computer chair at home (work all day on computer in an office on a more expensive memory foam computer chair) and I am very impressed with it. It's fun to sit on and a whole lot less expensive than most good office chairs that I have looked at. Bottom line I really like this chair - it makes you stretch and move while sitting and don't feel so stiff when getting up from it after sitting for a while. Thank you Gaiam.
