I am interested in, & purchase many items to better my health &/or make life easier. The concept behind this product is a good one, but the chair itself does not deliver. It is not at all comfortable, unadjustable except for how much air you put into the ball, & sticks to your legs if they're exposed. I have attempted to adjust how I sit on the ball, but have not found a way to be comfortable, and at times experience tailbone pain when I rise off of it.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I have used the Balance Ball as my computer chair for a week and have already seen results. I love the DVD that comes with the chair. Buy this and work your abs without even noticing the effort.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I bought this chair over the holidays. It had an immediate effect on my back and hip, relief. The body just forms nicely into place. Keeping you sitting upright. The look is not for all as I have this in my office. Yet I have caught some BORROWING it:) I love it.
I have a bad back. This chair is perfect for my back and looks pretty cool.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I spend the better part of each day sitting in front of a computer on a chair that starts out being comfortable and turns to a torture chamber by days end. Over the years, I've developed sciatica which is aggravated by long stents of sitting. I have tried many remedies, but this chair is my best friend. It changes the pressure point on your pevis as you sit. I will purchase another and store it.....just in off chance anything should happen to this one. Puts you at exactly the right level for keyboarding. I didn't even mention what it does for your posture! It is fabulous....one whole day...no pain! Thanks to the inventive mind that brought this to the market! I've recommended this product to everyone I know!
I absolutely love this chair. I have been trying to get one for over a year at work, and now that I have one I am excited. It keeps my posture straight, and I love the different exercises I can do to strengthen my core.
I bought this chair a couple weeks. The ball is so small. It doesn't look like the photos on the website at all. I am 5'2" and I barely reach my desk. Do you think I got the wrong size of ball? it says 52 cm. how do I measure it?
