I purchased this chair system in 2006 because I sat in front of my computer for many hours typing for work causing my back and shoulders to bother me. After switching from a regular wooden chair to this ball chair system, I no longer had back or shoulder discomfort. I have used this chair in front of my computer for the past 5 years and can't imagine going back to a regular chair. Thank you!
I have been suffering with hip pain for almost a year now. I couldn't sit for longer than twenty minutes without significant hip pain. I have used this chair over a week for hours at a time and no hip pain...yes! I can now get my work done. I highly recommend this chair to people my height.64". It's a perfect position for me. (I do have the ball slightly deflated)
I bought this chair back after Christmas. bought it into work and everyone kind of smirked at me. I love the chair...it has improved my posture and relived a lot of the back pain I had from sitting in the other office chairs. Now others in the office have tried my chair for a few days each and want one too.. thank you... Also the customer service is outstanding!!! the best I have dealt with in a very long time.
I bought this because I found myself slouching in my "normal" chair while working at the computer. This habit caused pain in my shoulders and neck. In an effort to find a better way, I believed the promotional materials that claimed this chair would improve posture, build core strength, etc. Well, not actually for me. I am entirely capable of slouching in this chair, too. So, back to working on good old fashioned discipline.
love this chair, my only complaint is that there is no way to raise it up. you can only pump the ball up so much. It needs to have a wheel adjustment so that it has more heights options.
