tiger: This is a solid product with clear instructions. It works great as a replacement for my office chair- it is very comfortable and just the right size. There is also a guide included for suggested exercises that I found helpful. I am very happy with this purchase, especially after buying a similar product from another manufacturer that did not meet my expectations.

Alyssa Garner: Got this for pregnancy and labor— didn’t end up using it. VERY thick material, which would. Be great for exercise but it was tougher to use for comfort with pain. I don’t love that the stand is also inflatable. It takes 24 hours to let it sit after “half” inflating it then you deflate and then reinflate.. and even with my little electric pump it took awhile. Can’t imagine using the hand pump it came with. I’m sure it would be great for exercise and it seems durable once you can use it but that beginning process is a little much. I wish I could return it but I went into labor early and missed the window. 🙃

A sensible personA sensible person: The ring arrived with a spilt in the seam and it won’t hold air. I contacted their customer support and they sent a new one! This is a sturdy ball and feels like it will hold up to exercising, but it’s not big enough to be a desk chair as it mentions. I’m 5’8” and this isn’t big enough for me sit on at a low desk, but it does fit under my desk nicely. The ring is nice and the exercise pulleys— the exercise given by them is also questionable tho. I thought it would be more effective.

Just me: Nice. Easy to inflate. Great instructions. Does what it says it will.
I switched from a desk chair that was causing pain to this. I was at first hesitant, but the stability ring made it all so easy. The ball stays in place and yet still has movement. Since switching to this I no longer have arm pain or back pain. I feel my hips are more flexible and others have told me my posture is greatly improved. I have and will continue to recommend this to others. Give it a try you might be amazed.

Geoffrey Fletcher: The reason I gave this item it's rating, is while sitting on it is indeed more comfortable than a regular seat, there are a few issues with it. I followed the instructions to inflate both the ball and the stability ring base, to the letter. And after such was done neither of these items could be inflated any more than they already are.

That being said the ball itself works fine, and I have owned ones before for fitness purposes. But the main reason I ordered the one with the stability ring, was to have the option of using it a seat of sorts, and more than a few times the stability ring didn't do it's job of preventing the ball from moving. In fact, the ball just simply rolled right over the ring as if it was not there.

But not being content sitting that low to the ground, I ordered another one with an actual chair base for the ball to sit in, and hopefully this will address that issue. Unfortunately they don't sell the chair base separate with that particular brand, so I will simply have a spare ball, just in case something happens to the currently inflated ball.

Lorena P.: Me encanta la infle menos por mi altura, yo mido 1.54 pero estoy embarazada y siempre espero que en mi posición sentada quede mi cadera sobre la altura de mis rodillas, la uso para yoga y para sentarme en home office, la compré más grande para poder compartirla con mi esposo, y me encanta para descansar de la sensación de cansancio de silla Cua do pasas mucho rato trabajando! Cumplió mucho mis expectativas, el color morado muy bonito se ve coqueto en el estudio, la base (anillo/ que trae para abajo es la onda por que así en momentos que no quieres que esté ruede y ruede se mantiene en su sitio.

Diana S.: There was little to no point for the pump that was included in the box, and was still completely useless for top-ups after it was fully inflated. I, initially, could not get the ball inflated to within 15cm of the specified diameter using the included pump - despite letting it sit for 24-hours & trying to pump it up further, allowing for stretching to occur. I had to order attachments for my bike pump to be able to get it fully inflated, which was really annoying. But, once it was fully inflated, it works great. I also really like the ring base that keeps it from rolling anywhere ... super usefully when you have to get up frequently when working on a project. My old ball would always end up rolling into my flat-mate/flat-mate's desk, which annoyed both of us. So, overall positive after the initial frustration.

NatalieNatalie: I’ve been pleased with my Amazon purchases so far but this was a disappointment. Firstly, the pump that came with the item was a cheap manual foot pump (the kind that you get with you inflatables), unlike the hand pump featured in the listing. Secondly, the ball is far from its supposed full size of 65cm when fully inflated. I followed the instructions and waited 24 hrs to deflate by 50% and re-inflate but it was still at least 10cm off the mark the second time (see photo), even after pumping repeatedly. Not sure if a better pump would’ve helped but it’s seemed the ball was already at its max possible size.

Definitely expected better of Gaiam.

Luis Javier De La Torre Zavala: Llegó correctamente en tiempo y en forma, pero hay que estar al pendiente del repartidor porque los entregan sin checar los datos correctamente a otros domicilios

Evelyn: I spent a little time looking for a yoga ball but with classes being at home now I decided I really needed one. I like that this one comes with a base to keep the ball from rolling away when I stand up.
I'm mostly using it as a chair while listening to lectures so I can gently bounce and fidget. It came with a little starter guide of 6 exercises you can do, I thought that was neat so I've been trying them out as well.
The hand pump made quick work of filling the ball and base. I did find it a little tricky getting the stopper out of the ball on the second day to give it another round of inflation (it recommends to do a second filling after 24 hours) but other than that it really feels solid.
