Editorial Review
The innovative BalanceBall Chair lets you reap the benefits of the popular BalanceBall right at your workspace. This patented design lets you do tension-relieving techniques while seated in the chair - or simply remove the ball to stretch and strengthen key muscles without a trip to the gym. Relieves stress on the spine, helps prevent back discomfort and repetitive motion disorders, helps prevent health issues related to poor posture, illustrates non-impact strengthening exercises and stretching and keeps you active, even on busy work days. When you sit in the BalanceBall Chair, the ball acts as a shock absorber and eases your body into an ergonomic position. When your muscles become stiff or whenever you want a break, the exercises in this guide will help you relax, build strength and foster a wide range of health benefits. Exercises performed with the BalanceBall in the chair offer maximum support, stability and convenience. Exercises performed on the ball alone allow greater range of movement. The BalanceBall Chair was developed with Dr. Randy Weinzoff a pioneer in chiropractic care. Trained at the acclaimed Palmer West University in California, Dr. Weinzoff runs his successful practice in Santa Monica, CA based on his philosophy of "Vitality through total alignment of the whole being." Some assembly required.

great to sit on, but not for 8 hours straight

2008-05-20
Love the ball chair! It looks cool and is compact enough to not look weird in the office. It's sturdy and easy to use. My muscles had to get used to sitting on it, because it does make you sit with proper posture. Also, can't sit on it all day, so it's good to have an alternative chair and switch back and forth.

I love this chair. I thought it would be uncomfortable but it isn't and I can sit on it all day. It helps my posture and keeping my back straight. I have no more lower back problems from sitting for 10 hours a day!

awesome office seat!!!

no more ouchy neck, back,... this keeps me sitting better in front of the computer.

Love It!

I bought my chair about two months ago and I use it at home. I wish I had one at work, too. I love it! I even find myself exercising on it while I am working at my computer. If you are on the fence about ordering this one, go for it, you won't be sorry.

Good for Core

I have been using this chair for a little over a month now.

While I don't care for the locking tabs on the wheels, (I keep bumping them with my foot and then am unable to roll.)the chair is very comfortable. I find that I am sitting straighter and my posture in general is stronger.

I am getting one for my other employees.

Decent Chair

2008-07-22
I bought this to replace the large ball I used to sit on at work. To be honest although this chair is pretty good, I really liked the ball alone. I found that the locking casters are placed so that everytime you put your foot down your heal will hit the locking mechanism and then you can not roll. You then must lean down to un-lock the casters and start all over again! It is comfortable to sit on!

Easy to put together, works great!

2008-06-23
The chair was very easy to put together and only took a few minutes to blow up the ball. The back is not really used for anything except for balance during exercises, if you use this chair for exercises. That, and to make the chair look more like a real chair in my cube.

Have yet to like a Gaiam product despite their hype

2008-06-15
I had a temporary office job where the only chairs available were these. At first I was excited because I've heard about these and very much wanted to try it. After using this product daily for 6 months you couldn't pay me to sit on one now. I soon found myself slouching worse than ever to compensate for the complete lack of back support. Just sit up straight in your normal chair and you'll be fine. Oh, and it's a cheap, plastic, poorly designed thing that should cost about $15. All four wheel locks were broken and don't expect yours to last long.

I purchased this chair after seeing it in a doctor's office. It was easy to put together [15 minutes!], and I notice a difference in the way I feel after working at the computer for many hours per day. The ball can be taken out and used for exercises.

stick with a ball

I just purchased this chair to replace a balance ball that i have been using as a desk chair for about a year. Frankly, i prefer the real thing. The ball without the chair 'frame' gives me more mobility, is more comfortable and is cheaper. For my money, i'd skip the frills and just sit on your ball. One caution, you do need to be mindful when you get up and down as you seat can/will fly out from under you at times. Makes life interesting! ( -:
