Customer Reviews for Gaiam - Faux Suede Accent Chair - Ocean

I had a ball chair on a previous job and decided I wanted one again. My co-workers are jealous and take my chair when I am off. This chair is great for my lower back and my core as I work on balancing during the day. A regular desk chair would cause my butt to go numb when I was chained to my desk for long periods of time. Also with the ball chair, you don't get the flattened out "chair butt" like you do with regular desk chairs. Two other women in my office want one. BTW... the men like it as much as the women.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I've had one at work for several years. Just got one for home, unless my wife takes it to work. Great customer service.

This chair did not work for me at all. Gave me a lower back ache. I tried it for 2 days and had to return. The casters are a real problem as other reviewers also talked about. I found a chair that is lumbar adjustable, arm height adjustable, etc. which is exactly what I need.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I bought this to use at my desk, but it is way too low. As for exercise, I don't know, because I did not use it that way. If it were higher, I would have really liked to use it as my office chair. So I can't say it's bad, it just did not fit my use. It was very easy to put together though.

I have had this chair for several months and am still not "used to it" as I thought I would be. i have poor posture and a bad low back and I still have a hard time keeping my posture in alignment. I did however, remove the base and am just sitting on the ball, as it does force you to engage your core, or else you roll around. I will try this a little throughout the day to see if my posture improves and maybe i can use it more comfortably.

I love this chair! It has made my back and shoulders feel so much better. The ball chair forces you to keep your shoulders up and back straight.

I am so happy I bought this chair last month. I have a job were I'm working in claims up to ten hours a day. All that sitting is hard on your lower back. In a week, I could tell a difference, and now after a month with this chair it's pain-free. Wish I had found this sooner !
I would recommend this to a friend!

Chair did not work for me. Wheels do not roll easily and I kept hitting my ankles on the base when trying to move. I'm having much better success sitting on a regular balance ball.
