Exceeded my expectations

I was desperately looking for a solution to the problem of having a numb rear end and upper thighs by the end of every work day. On a whim, I convinced my boss to let me try out this chair...I was not expecting to like it. But, surprise, I love it! It's comfortable and the adjustment period just took about a day. After the second day of using the chair, I went home feeling energized and refreshed and no more numbness from being confined to an office chair all day. Try it....you'll probably be surprised like I was.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Got this to help with my posture while sitting at the computer all day--love it!! Helps tilt your pelvis so your spine stacks over the pelvis instead of all slumpy. I feel more alert when sitting up straight, and can lift my collarbones and move shoulders back and feel even better! I too had the wheel lock issue and we just put the locking wheels on the rear instead of right by where you tend to kick the front ones--try it!!
Pros: great pool blue color

Balance Ball Chair

I recently ordered a balance ball chair as I've wanted one for years! I think the pump that came with it broke or was a defect because there is a thin rubber material lining inside the pump part that got stuck in the shaft which made the pump very hard to push up and down. Since that was not working, I switched to another pump suitable for the ball and I feel like there is never enough air in the ball. I'm 5'1 and 120lbs, but am not sure how much I'm supposed to sink into the top of the ball, as I feel like it's a couple inches or so now. When I'm not sitting on the ball it doesn't seem to look fully inflated either. I don't want to go back to the normal desk chair, so what can I do to make sure my balance ball chair is correct?

Bought these for the ladies in my office to use as they wanted something they could get some core exercise in during the day. All three chairs have snapped the zinc steel bar which holds the ball in place. Also the plastic is real flimsy and not recommended for someone over 200 Lbs. I will never buy this product again. Think twice before buying these chairs as in my opinion these are best suited for small children.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

It's ridiculously small and kid sized. Don't bother.

Too short to be seated at any kind of table or des

This chair is not really a chair.Very low to the ground. The benefits of sitting on a balance ball are gone, since your body does not have to balance it. ball exploded when I tried to reinflate.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

A fellow employee bought this exact chair and I fell in love with it. So I ordered the exact same chair, model, color, etc. The chair itself, I absolutely love. However, her chair came with a foot pump. Mine came with a hand pump, that someone would have to have incredible arm strength to pump that size of a ball, but it also had a nozzle that does not fit in the hole of the ball. Needless to say I was not thrilled. So I had to borrow her foot pump. That should not have happened.
