 Ball is fine, but pump is total crap November 1, 2009
Customer
The fitness ball itself is fine - although it gradually loses air over time.
The main problem is the pump. The pump is complete crap. While pumping the hose will detach from the pump, you'll lose a bunch of air, you'll reattach the hose, and then the valve will pop off the other side causing you to lose even more air. Basically, it will take 5 times longer to pump up the ball than it should.
It's a good ball, but the pump will test your patience (and your ability to find small objects (the valve) that have shot off the pump half-way through use).
 It works like a charm. October 12, 2009

This ball works great. So far (I've had it a little over a month) I've only had to add air to it once, but it also gets used a lot by not only me for workouts but my 3 kids and husband for play too!
 Good reminder to do good throughout the day October 6, 2009
H. Chicas (Alexandria, VA United States)
I've been thinking of small practical ways to reset my bad behaviors. Seating on an exercise ball is one the easiest/fast to achieve. I've done it and while it's a little hard (not too much) for co-workers to see you seating on a ball. It is a good reminder to seat straight, stand up a little more than usual and helps with balance. I don't know much about balance tho' I don't think it's doing much for me in that regard. The white ball gets filthy fast. It may also get warm if I seat on it for hours at a time which then again reminds me to stand up and get water or something. I really recommend this product. 65cm is about 25.5" inches high. Which was a little taller than the chair I had. I imagine the bigger ball wouldn't have been apropriate in my case. The 65cm is a good height.
DO this:
- Seat on an exercise ball during the day
- Keep a food log
- Incorporate exercise in you routine 3-4 days a week.
- I bike or walk home from work. It takes 30-60 minutes.
- Buy an Heart Rate Monitor (I have the Polar F6) to track calories burned and of course your heart.
- Social support is good too. I do share my goals, successes and fails on twitter. It's less embarrassing than doing it in facebook and still it is real people (that you may not know that well) I think of it as of my weight watchers. I've lost like 7 pounds doing all of the above.
Good quality ball, but the pump is frustrating August 9, 2009
Amazon Addict (Redmond, WA)
I purchased this ball to do exercises prescribed by my chiropractor. The quality is very good--it's sturdy and I don't feel like I'm sitting on a balloon that's about to pop. However, the foot pump is flimsy and annoying to use. I had much better luck with an electric pump designed for inflating mattresses.
 Came discolored, without a plug and without instructions July 15, 2009

The product came incomplete and the customer support consists of a voicemail. I left a message and wasn't called back.
