Customer Reviews

I've been sitting on a plain ball for some time, but found that in the summer, the latex is too hot, and you tend to sweat in places that can be uncomfortable. I tried to put a towel over the ball, but then it was too slick to stay on.
I saw this, and figured that since the legs adjust, this might be ideal. The ball won't move as much, so I could use a towel as padding to give me a layer between myself and the ball latex. This part of the plan worked! It's much more comfortable now.
However, the wheels on the chair are not very good. I will have to call the vendor soon and ask for some replacements already, (a couple of the wheels don't swivel very well, so the chair is very "jerky" when you try to scoot in it). Also, be careful to adjust it first, as if you have it too high and try to sit in it, it will shoot out from under you with an amazing velocity.
Note also the wheel locks are very easily accidentally set by hitting them with your feet. The wheels and wheel locks on this chair are actually not well designed or thought out.

This is possibly the greatest chair that I have ever sat on. I homeschool my son, and had been having back pain from sitting on a hard IKEA chair for 4th grade math...I have a very healthy back, teach classes at the YMCA....YET my back had been hurting. It stopped the VERY day I got this chair....you may want to stop reading this and drive straight to your local Target to buy one (mine had it--a nice minus for the shipping). My hubby has the older version of this chair from Gaiam at his work....he loves it....but what I love about this version is that the legs, and the back rest are adjustable...great for the core, and posture to use this chair. My back feels as good when I sit on it as if I had just done a workout class....loose and relaxed. It deserves 6 stars IMO. Thank you Gaiam! p.s I am 5' 7" and find the near lowest leg setting very comfortable.
