I just purchased one of these, and I like it. I use it as a substitute for my office chair a couple hours a day (likely more soon), and I feel that this is helping me strengthen my core muscles. I would advise making sure to pump it up fully, as it initially seems that you should stop pumping a little earlier. Make sure it is firm after pumping and doesn't have too much "give". So, if you work in an office and don't have a regular exercise routine, or you do and want to get a little more out of your workday, go for one of these. This model was one of the lowest priced when I purchased it, and it has a pump (unlike some others).

I ordered the 65cm ball. After spending 20 minutes pumping it up with the tiny little hand pump they provide, I discovered that at full inflation the ball was only 55cm. Then I had to spend another 20 minutes on the phone with Amazon to return it. Complete waste of time.

I think the recommended size 55cm for adult under 5'6" is kinda too small, when i sit on the ball it is much lower than i expected. And i can't get the seal closed tight for first 2-3 weeks, so it caused air leaking, need to re-pump once in a week. Now the seal is plugged correctly, but it still needs re-pumping every week (i use the ball everyday). I'm not sure is it the nature of this kind of ball or is a quality issue?
The material is quite good, the rubber is not shiny and slippery like other ball. Unfortunately it does not come with measurement tape, so you need to figure out yourself whether it is enough inflated or not. Hand pump is also OK, even though a foot pump sounds better, it is faster to inflate with a hand pump.

I am great believer in Yoga exercises and the Yoga exercise ball is the best. It helps with flexibility because you use it to lay on your stomach and on your back. It is also a good stretching exercise. Like all Yoga exercises it is slow and calming.

I was very disappointed about the quality of the pump and the ball. I needed a stronger pump to blow the ball up, the hand pump was a joke. Also, I find that I consitintly need to refill the air in the ball as it keeps leaking out.
