Sturdy and easy to use July 20, 2008 This exercise ball was easy to inflate and easy to use. It helps to do crunches without any strain on the back. I enjoy exercising everyday.
Not good quality July 16, 2008 When I took it out of the box, besides its extremely strong chemical odor, I noticed it seemed to have some kind of wet substance all over it that rubbed off on my hands when I touched it (the consistency of lotion). I have no idea what it was. On the plus side, it comes with a measuring tape to let you know when it is inflated enough. However, the pump that comes with it was extremely labor intensive and a lot of pumping didn't accomplish much. The smell and the wet feel of the plastic was enough for me. I'm going to buy another higher quality brand. I guess you get what you pay for!
great exercise July 4, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I'm glad I added this exercise to my workout session. Don't know why I was loosing my balance, but this workout helped me regain it.
JUNK June 30, 2008 Blew up the ball according to instruction. Heard air escaping immediately. Checked over ball, and saw it had a nick/small cut in it where air was escapinging. Pressed LIGHTLY on the area to further assess, and ball tore. NEVER even got to use it. ABSOLUTE JUNK.
Not big enough for 5'4 June 25, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I am 5'4 and this is a bit small for me. I've heard your legs should make a 90 degree angle when you sit on it. However, my knees go slightly up rather than being straight or slightly pointing down. A 65 cm ball might have been more suitable for me, especially since I would have more control over adjusting it for my height. It is written both on the box and the product description here that it is for those who are 5'0-5'3 but I didn't see it. I went by the recommendation of other sites and sources. I didn't have a problem with the pump. It reminded me of a Playskool toy but it worked fine for me. A little tiring, but easy to use. I was able to finish pumping in around 5 minutes. The ball itself seems okay. Nothing exceptional nor bad quality---just a basic, average exercise ball. I received the creamy pearl color which I would rather have anyway. The ball also arrives very sticky so it needs to be wiped well.
