We bought the Classic Balance Ball Chair for our teenage son, and he loves it! He has one at school, too. The assembly instructions were clear and fairly simple, and the chair itself is great. I highly recommend it.
This chair is really great for those who have a back problem. The addition of the extension legs made a world of difference. If I knew about the extension legs I would have ordered them when I ordered the chair is the only thing I would recommend for others.
I have been seating on a balance ball chair for about a year post injurying by lower back during a bad fall. I also use the ball for core strenghting reccommended by my physical therapist. I am a dental hygenist! I tell you it is the best seat ever, my core and back are stronger! No more pain on my back short time post using this seat,posture also improved. I strongly reccommended this product for anyone that seats long period of time .
I had hoped this chair would help with my back and my hip (arthritis). It does nothing for my hip, and not much for my back. I still have pain upon getting out of the chair, and this chair does not have any parts to take up the weight when getting out of it, like arms or a flat seating surface to push off from. Also the wheels do not move on a carpeted floor, so that is another problem in my home office. I need to be able to swivel around from one desk to another. I will be returning this chair soon. Sorry. I am very disappointed.
I set it up in my office in less than an hour and it is wonderful, makes me sit straight and I can tell sitting in this chair will have a positive effect on the muscle tone in my core and legs
I truly like the way this products incourages good posture. My lower back feels stronger and my back pains have dimenished. I gave this product 2 stars because I've only had this chair for a few weeks and the metal rod/brace on the front of the chair has broken off. What are my options for replacement?
