Wish height were adjustable

The chair is great: a bit weird at first but I'm already noticing that it works core muscles to help balance. I'm also trying to fight my bad habit of crossing my legs, which is still possible, but more difficult, to do on this chair. I love that the ball comes out so it can be used for floor exercises: that was a big factor in my decision to buy this chair. However, potential buyers should know that the base that holds the ball is NOT height-adjustable, so there is the distinct possibility you will be seated too low for your existing desk, which is the problem I have. My elbows are a bit high now as I type, but, then again, I find I'm looking at my laptop a bit more directly (instead of down at it), so my neck feels a bit straighter. Not sure what this will mean for my shoulder muscles, but time will tell.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I absolutely love this chair. Not only does it look good in my office, but it feels great. I used to have a stand-up office, but decided to go to a sit-down office because my knees and ankles were swelling. This chair allows me to sit comfortably, relieving any and all knee and ankle pressure, once experienced. So glad to have found it.

Skeptical about this at first, but this chair is fabulous! It allows you to sit in a comfortable, natural position. Huge positive impact on fatigue after sitting at my computer for hours. Excellent product!

Worth Trying

I used this chair as my office chair and was very happy with it. It's just that you cannot use it over 2-3 year period, you have to switch. I had a purple one and it lasted me for over a couple of years and then I gave that to a friend as a gift. Good support, good balance and and can be used for leg lifts and exercises.

I ordered this chair to use at our computer. It is extremely comfortable. It was easy to put together. The instruction booklet also has great exercises that you can do with the chair. I also love the look of the chair and the blue-pool color.

I like it so far (1 week). The way the seat back connects seems weak. I tightened it up a few times since getting it. Maybe the pieces just needed to settle together. Seems to be holding for now. Rating is based on it holding up for the price.
