What's in the Box?
Gaiam Balance Ball chair, air pump
Special Note:
For optimal performance, it may be necessary to re-inflate your new Balance Ball once or twice after the initial inflation. Once your chair is assembled and the Balance Ball is inflated, re-check the ball size the next day. If necessary, add additional air and check once more the following day. Your new Balance Ball may need a day or two to "stretch" to its final size (which should then fit perfectly in the base).

Sports reviews of Gaiam Balance Ball Chair (Black)
Customer Review: Much relief from back pain
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars
I have always found it difficult to sit at the computer for any length of time due to lower back pain. I tried this chair at a friend's house and loved it and my husband purchased one for me. It keeps my back in a proper posture and enables me to sit for much longer periods of time. Highly recommend it.You can also use the chair to perform some exercises that are detailed in a book contained with the chair. The assembly is easy and the concept is simple.Customer Review: love it!
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars
I am at my desk on the computer a great deal. I bought this chair hoping my back would stop hurting and I have not been disappointed. I love my balance ball chair and will never go back to a regular office chair. The ball is study and looks pretty "normal" from the opposite side of my desk. I do however find that I have a little trouble maintaining a lady-like pose on days I wear skirts that are a silky fabric since they want to slide off the ball.Customer Review: Great Chair! Nice Ab Workout all day long.
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars
It is nice quality...arrived promptly, required little assembly. It is quite a conversation piece around the office. Everyone wants to try it. I have been using it everyday for several months now. I actually gave up my regular office chair. It has to be a workout, because when I am really tired, I miss my other chair. You really have to sit up straight and use your abdominals all the time. I have noticed a difference in my posture for sure.Customer Review: I quit slouching in my chair.
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars
This chair has forced me to sit upright again. It's quite comfortable, I adapted quickly to its style. I didn't have any back issues when I bought this, but I knew that being in front of a computer all day in a conventional chair allowed me to get lazy and slouch. This chair establishes a good structure so my shoulders don't droop and I sit with my back against the backrest. It was easy to assemble and the casters work well on carpet.Customer Review: My Back Feels Great
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars
I had back surgery several years ago and since then, I've not been able to sit at my computer for more than a few hours without feeling nerve pain. But this product allows me to work for hours without stress. I think the fact that I'm exercising a bit by balancing on the chair as I work is the key. I haven't tried the exercises that are suggested yet, but I'm sure that my back will be in much better shape due to using this chair.
