comfortable but be super careful about your balance on it. I was not paying attention and tipped over backwards and a friend of mine was doing a treatment on a person on a chiropractor's table, she was leaning forward and she fell forward. Neither of us were hurt, but caution encouraged!
The ball chair started out great, but within 10 days, one of the legs just collapsed under the chair, so it is not usable. I have not had a chance to contact the company to see how to go about getting a replacement....hopefully, they will send me one!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Incorrect Parts to Assemble

My chair arrived today. I tried to assemble it but one of the parts was wrong.
The ball got a small hole in it the second day of using it and started deflating. Found a regular exercise ball at a garage sale that fit and seems to be much tougher.
I love to concept of this chair, but cannot seem to avoid back pain. I only sit in it for a short period of time and have tried multiple adjustments to no avail :(
I purchased this chair to sit at my desk at work while on computer I have to take the ball out of the chair as it sits too high to be at an ergonomically correct height while sitting, the ball rolls & I find it exhausting to stay balanced & not roll off ball. When I just sit on ball while it is in the chair frame to file or read it is fine. I wish there was a base for the ball without any added height.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Fun chair

As an office chair, the wheels do not move well on carpet, but you can get a plastic desk mat and it will roll fine. It is easy to kick the wheel and lock it so be careful. You can get fatigued sitting for long periods of time, so get up move and get a back support. It is sturdy, comfortable, affordable.
