Vivora Luno Balance Ball Chair for Active Sitting and Exercise

JLL: Enjoying my purchase so far. Inflation wasn’t difficult when the enclosed instructions were followed. I bought the larger size to accommodate my 6’ height and found that I need to have it not quite fully inflated to use at a comfortable height at my desk, even with an elevated monitor. However, being able to bounce a bit helps at that 3p afternoon slump time!

Josef: Overall seems to be good and was pretty easy to put together. However, I ordered the Barley cover but received the Anthracite cover. Which isn't even an option above.

MarylynnMarylynn: Having used a yoga ball as my desk chair for the last 10+ years I was ready for an upgrade. The Max size is the same size as my 75mm yoga ball. The fabric and seams look good. Time will tell how it holds up.

rocketman3746: Edit: customer service got back to me quickly. Apparently I had an older model with a ball that was too big for the cover, putting too much pressure on the seams and zipper. They've offered to replace it for me, so I bumped it up to 4 stars for now. We'll see how the new one works out!

Original review:
I've had this medicine ball for a little over a year now. I liked the way it was designed, that ring around the bottom helps its stay upright when you're not on it, but isn't so big that it impedes movement when you are sitting on it. I tend to bounce a little and move around to keep my lower back lose. In that regard, this chair has been a great help for me.

Inflating it can be tricky. They do have a video on their website that will walk you through it, but it could certainly stand to be a little more concise, it's quite long. The real reason I came here to review was that the zipper failed this morning. The mechanism departed the zipper in dramatic fashion, shooting across the room, and the zipper itself ripped apart. It seems like it could afford to be a little stronger. A user bouncing gently on the ball throughout the day should definitely be taken into...

Vera Chernova: I wanted to like it but just didn’t find it comfortable. I gave it a month and was actually just going to return it but realized it’s now outside the return window. So writing a review instead.
Setup took maybe 15 minutes. It was a little hard to wiggle the inflatable part inside the cover but not a big deal. One thing that became apparent at that point that if you want to have it inflated not too hard then the cover would not fully stretch and will be wrinkly, and hence the wrinkles and seams would dig into your skin when you sit.
So to keep it less wrinkly I had to inflate it more than I’d prefer and it lost some of the bounce that I was looking for in this type of chair.
The main point of uncomfort for me was that it is not actually a sphere. Instead it’s sort of pumpkin-shaped. And because of that if I try to sit in the middle of the “top” it’s too wide for my legs to go straight down at the knee. I end up sitting just slightly off center and given the shape of it I slide off of it slowly throughout the day and have to readjust every other minute. I’m 5.8, so it’s not that I have short legs.
Looking at the bright side - it’s so uncomfortable I...
