Customer Reviews for Gaiam - Classic Balance Ball® Chair - Ocean

The chair is not the same color pictured (ocean blue) and the ball and base are different colors. I cannot get comfortable sitting on the chair, nor can I get used to sitting on the chair so I gave it to my daughter. She can give it a try. Maybe she'll get some use out of it. By the way, my other daughter bought an exercise ball chair like mine at a second hand store but it was not Gaiam brand name and she paid a fraction of the price that I did. It looks and feels the same as mine apparently.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I did a whole lot of research before buying this ball, and I'm glad I finally got it. My old office chair was giving me lower back problems before but after 2 weeks of using this, I can feel my back has strengthened, and I absolutely love it. Highly recommend this!

A Fit Sit!

This chair is more than what I expected! I can sit in front of my computer and feel like I'm still getting a workout. I sit up more and am more conscious of my posture. There are times that I still end up slouching, but I am more conscious of it and catch myself doing it while sitting on this chair rather than a "normal" chair. I highly recommend getting this chair if you spend a lot of time sitting down. You can definitely feel the difference! I marked down on the quality because I was expecting more than the plastic base, I guess. It's not a bad thing, but I was expecting something heavier than the light base.

A comfortable seat

I needed a chair that would encourage good posture. This does the trick - and is comfortable too. Here I am, unconsciously doing posture exercises while at the computer - and feeling more relaxed than in any other task chair I've ever used.

A workout while I work

I bought this ball chair because I wanted to do more than just sit and slump in my seat (I have an 8-hour/day desk job). In the three weeks since I started using this chair, I have definitely noticed that my core has gotten stronger. But better than that, I don't slump. You can't slump in this chair. The only cons are if you are wearing an outfit that can be tough to sit in (like a tight pencil skirt), but I've done it. I work in a school of allied-health professions (like chiropractic and physical therapy) and the professors give it the thumbs up!

OK for a child and an adult of 5'8" size. Sturdy, sturdy. Fun to roll and sit in. Good quality. Ball is 65cm.
