I Love this chair!!! It is the most comfortable chair I have ever sat on at work. It has greatly improved my posture at work and I no longer go home with pain in my lower back from slouching all day. Not to mention the added benefit of being able to bounce when I become frustrated, which happens a lot.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I had developed back (lower and upper) problems and decided to give this chair a chance. Wow ... it really did make a difference. The first day, I could only sit in it for about 30 minutes before I really felt all those muscles working. The back ache has been slowly but surely going away. One con : can't say I like the cheesy black plastic. Oh well.

The Balance Ball Chair is everything the company says it is. I wish I had heard of it 3 years ago when I started a job where I sit 8 hours a day in front of a computer. I like to do the streches in the book provided and also the sit ups which are much better sitting on the ball instead of the work out bench. I do work out with weights and power walk, but I needed the ball for my aching back and stiff shoulders and joints. Yeah! I love it.

Purchased this chair when I started having lower back issues. Been using this at my corporate office for over a year now - yes, I do have some funny looks and everyone wants to "try" - but it has been great. I can no longer sit on my foot or lean to one side on the armrest. Back & core have become much stronger. No more pain killers needed after a long day at work
I use this in my office. Keeps me sitting erect and engages my core all day long. Fun to bounce on for a little heart-rate lifting, and I do stretching exercises during breaks. Great product, great price.

This helped correct my posture at the computer desk, which was my goal. The kids really like it and I often have to go get it at their computer desk. The ball is cold to sit on in winter, so I put a small blanket over it.
