Sports reviews of Valeo Burst Resistant 65cm Body Ball (Green)
Customer Review: great workout ball or desk chair
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars
The summary: sturdy, comfortable, "cushiony" but firm, tacky surface to keep you from slipping.
I really like this workout ball. I found this ball great for workouts, and a nice periodic change for my deskchair as well. It has a slightly tacky surface, so you don't slip (like the feel of a rubber band - it doesn't feel 'sticky'). It is firm while still having a cushiony feel. It also feels very sturdy so I don't worry about it popping. There is a guide that is very easy to use to help you blow it up to the right size (the pump is included). I've used several other workout balls and this is my favorite.

I am 5'3" and this ball fits my size. I was a bit worried that it would be too big, but that is not the case at all. Right now the ball is primarily being used as a desk chair. I sit on it just about every day & my husband (who is 5'9" likes it as a chair too). I have also used it to exercise. Oh, and my step-kids have had immense joy in playing with it. I would recommend this ball to anyone. I did have to re-pump it twice in the first month that I have had it, but that's because I like to have it super-firm when I do my crunches and work outs on it.Customer Review: Big, Strong, and Perfect.

I am not a small person...250lbs and about 6' tall. I bought this to use as a desk chair after seeing one of my favorite journalists using it. Much to my amazement...it works. I sit on it 3-4 hours a day and its perfect height for me to use as a desk chair and work on a computer. I have used it for occasional back exercising and it works well for that too.
The price and shipping from Amazon are awesome....I would highly recommend this item...as a chair and as a exercise ball.
Customer Review: I have bought many of these great affordable body balls

This review is simple, for under $20 you can have this ball delivered to yourself. I have since bought one for work, and another one for the home office. Sitting on this at work is very comfortable.
Good:
Cheap
High quality - very tough, we have never had one pop on us
Comfy
Room for improvement:
Lately the inflater they put in the box is now a hand pump vs. the foot pedal. This takes a LONG time to inflate and wears out the arm.
Customer Review: High Quality Body Ball
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars
I am 5'6" and my husband is 6'1" and we use this an office chair and both of us really like it. We tried an Altus brand ball before this and it burst within a month so I ordered this one and the quality of it is so much superior-it both looks and feels better. I used the included pump to blow it up just fine. It took me a bit to get it going, but once I did it was no problem. I also use it for back exercises to relax and stretch my back.
