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.
It's very comfortable, it forces you to sit up with good posture, but in a good way! It feels effortless & not like hard work. Easy to put together.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Assembling it "Was very easy". While I have only had this chair for 4 days now. I feel like it is doing me some good. I use it at my desk ( 8 hours a day) and it is very comfortable. I only have one complaint. The wheels do not move smoothly when being sat on. (on a chair mat) With no weight it glides smooth and yes I am under the weight limit, however this is my only complaint. LOVE IT

I move, bounce, have flexibility at waist, shoulders, hips, and legs are in a good relationship to the floor. I highly recommend this chair for improving strength and tone and use it for long stretches at the computer, where I work as a designer every day. There is nothing to hamper movement of the body. The chair is well made and holds its position on the floor. I have paid ten times as much for chairs that were uncomfortable yet touted as the best in ergonomics. Excellent!
I bought this to use at work. I find my coworkers sitting in it when I am not. I have, also, had patients and their family members inquire about it. I let them try it and one of them ordered it from their phone instantly.
I needed to strengthen my core. I asked my yoga instructor about this product and she recommended it, but told me to remember to keep my spine in neutral. I do, and is really working for me.
I bought this chair to help with lower back problems. I was having trouble sitting at my desk without pain. This chair changed that. I can sit pain-free for hours. It's amazing! It's light and easy to put together--big positive! It is the right height for my desk--I was worried about that given some of the reviews, but someone posted to make sure to inflate the ball fully, which I did, and it's perfect. I'm 5'5". FYI-I just put the ball in the chair and inflated it until it was touching the front metal piece. No explosions, so we're good. I bought the green chair and the color was as pictured.
