Customer Review: Until it burst
Sport shop rating: 3 Stars
I loved this ball, until it burst. I loved its large diameter, its smart orange skin, the way it filled so quickly with air. But five months after I first pumped life into the ball, in the middle of a workout, I heard a slow, sad whisper from above my ear. One of the ribs had snagged and torn on my clean-clipped fingernail! I considered purchasing another, but after some thought, my next ball should probably be one with thicker skin.Customer Review: Ball ok, Included pump broken on delivery
Sport shop rating: 3 Stars
I bought this as a Christmas gift, and was a bit upset to find out that the included pump (one of the main reasons for purchase) was broken from the beginning. In retrospect, I probably would have chosen a cheaper model that doesn't include a pump.Customer Review: Unsafe
Sport shop rating: 1 Stars
The Valeo 75 cm burst resistent ball was not as advertised on the box. When I first received it, the ball material appeared sturdy, though it was kind of thin. The 75 cm size is appropriate for someone over 6 feet. After about two months of use, the ball exploded. As the package suggested, a small hole would occur allowing for the decompression to occur over a period of seconds or minutes. Instead, a tear covered about 70% of the circumference of the ball (perpendicular to the small ridges in the ball) causing the ball to deflate suddenly. The material is just not strong enough to contain a tear to a small portion. Luckily I was only a little bit scraped as I was only sitting on the ball, but if someone had been doing crunches, they would have gotten hurt as the fall occurred at freefall speed. Try to get a ball with stronger/thicker material that lasts longer, and resists bursting. Also, I noticed that the burst remnants of the ball were somewhat lumpy inside, which suggests that the manufacture of the material was poorly carried out.Customer Review: Don't Buy this Ball unless you are seven feet tall
Sport shop rating: 1 Stars
Don't Buy this Ball unless you are seven feet tall. The ball is of a very high quality. The problem is, it's huge. I'm 6'2" tall and I cannot get on this ball. It's wall to tall, it's twice the size of a normal exercise ball. Try a smaller one.
Good exercising.
