Comfy Chair

This chair has improved my posture and is strengthening my lower back. I got rid of my desk chair and use this chair while working on my laptop placed on my lap. I don't even sit at my desk anymore. Doing leg exercises while sitting on this chair is easier on your lower back than a regular chair and you use your stomach muscles at the same time while still balancing on the chair. I like that the ball comes out and it's another exercise. The ball is of high quality and in a pretty metallic color. The video that comes with it is very good also. Love Tanya's high energy, it's contagious! The resistance bands really give your workout the extra umph.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Comfy Alternative

If you're stuck in an office all day, and you don't have the funds to buy a chair by Herman Miller, this is an affordable alternative. While it doesn't completely force you to sit up straight, it does encourage you to. I can tell that it promotes balance, as well, as my core muscles are usually slightly active while sitting. That's better than nothing.

cool chair

I'm really enjoying this chair. Other chairs that I'd used at my desk and computer were causing shoulder and back problems. I'm already feeling an improvement since I started sitting in this chair. I'm 5'9" and had no problems adjusting for my height. The plum color is really cool too!

I have been using one of these at work and this one is even better, having the back support. Sitting on a ball makes me feel like I have not been sitting. Mess around with the amount of air until it feels right and the height is right.

Desk Chair

The desk chair has been a great investment. It encourages good posture and I am sitting up straighter than with the traditional desk chair. Many co-workers have asked where I got the chair and want one for themselves. Any volume discounts offerred? One small flaw is I keep accidentally locking the wheels with mty shoes.

I purchased this chair to help me with posture at work as well as provide an easy exercise tool when I had time to do some stretching. This chair fits the bill perfectly. I use it every day in the office and received some strange looks at first but now my colleagues just say "Oh, she's on the ball.". My posture has improved, my core is getting stronger and my lower back pain is reduced. I only wish I had purchased this chair sooner!
