Part of Overall Plan

Bought the chair as part of my overall plan for back strengthening. Will start PT and have taken some Pilates classes, do stretching exercises each morning. It's a funny little chair but I hope that I my back is getting some benefit from it.
I would recommend this to a friend!

This product is not meant for sitting at a desk. Not sure what desk size Gaiam uses - must be for preschool size desks. If it wasn't such a pain to send back I would've sent it back. Do not purchase this if you want it for an adult size desk.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

My son says my pea green Balance Ball Chair was stolen from a set of Cone Heads, but my back doesn't care where it came from. I not only use it for exercise--I use it as my seat when I write on my laptop. I switch back and forth from it to a conventional chair, and have noticed an improvement in my health. And it's cute.

My personal trainer recommended an exercise ball chair. I found this through a Google search after reviewing many different chairs. VERY happy with my decision. I love blue and got the blue base with matching ball (trying to upload a photo, but it doesn't look like the website is cooperating...) . I just recently pulled a muscle in my back and also have had posture problems and issues with my legs going numb from spending so many years behind a desk in an conventional office chair. This chair COMPLETELY solved all those issues! Improved my posture, no more back pain, no more numb legs. Also, no issues with falling off it (despite my husband teasing I'm going to ) and you really can't because of the base. I have an L-shaped desk and leave all rollers unlocked so I can easily roll to the side when needed. I was already in good shape but did notice some added core toning benefits. All my office co-workers are jealous and want to try it out. I let them. :-) As far as setup - I put it together easily myself and am not really mechanically inclined. Very easy to assemble and the pump works fine to inflate it. One extra bonus - my office is always a meat locker so I have a heater on me all day long. This heats the ball up, so it's like having a HEATED seat! Seriously a great purchase!

I highly recommend this to all office users.... I used to go home with backaches and headaches every day. Since I purchased this chair 3 months ago... backaches & headaches are gone. My boss uses hers also and loves it.

We needed something more productive to our bodies than just the regular office chair. We invested in the ball chair and love it!

No more slouching!

I bought this chair because I have a BAD habit of slouching while working on my computer. I've looked at this chair for years and always thought it would be nice to have...well, i don't know why I waited so long. This chair is super comfortable, makes me sit up straight, looks good...AND I can do exercises while watching my webinars online! Thank you Gaiam!!!
