Working behind a desk all day was causing a lot of pain and weakness. This chair has stopped the pain and is building up core muscles. My legs no longer go numb. I can walk without the pain in my back or legs now. THANK YOU FOR THIS CHAIR.
I enjoy using the ball chair at work, definitely shown me a difference between normal office chairs. The only issue I have experienced is the bar breaking, twice each time at the connection site. One can still sit in the chair but scooting forward is to be done with caution
I would recommend this to a friend!

Worth having two!

While I've had my chair less than a month it has made a difference in my evenings at the computer after work. I'm buying a second one now to take to my office. I've had hip pain for years and sitting in a regular office chair at the computer for hours on end only exacerbates it. The yoga ball seems to be stretching my hip muscles as well as tightening my hidden core while allowing me to work pain free for longer. My only suggestion for improvement would be to remove the brake feature or move it away from the front wheels. It is far too easy to lock the brakes unintentionally.
I used to sit on my yoga ball, but it's much easier and comfortable now with the balance ball and chair.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Works okay but could use a longer zipper

The cover works well on the ball but I was dismayed to discover the zipper isn't long enough to put on the ball while it is inflated. This means that any time I want to wash it I have to deflate the ball and then re-inflate it. Not a deal breaker but it definitely seems like an oversight.
