 holds air fine, but smelly and not roundMar 28, 2007
By Vidiot
The included pump is a joke if you want to get this thing inflated out of the box. I used my bike floor pump and it still took forever. But hopefully it's something you only need to do once.
The ball I got is not round, and may explain why some folks complain that it's not the advertised size. It may well be the advertised size on one axis, but not another.
I've had this thing airing out in the garage for weeks now and it still wreaks of the plastic/vinyl/whatever smell such that I can't stand having it in the house long enough to actually use it. The smell is subsiding though, so maybe in another few weeks I can bring it inside.

 Hate to burst your bubble, but.. . .Oct 07, 2007

I was using this as a seat at my computer desk, and unfortunately, it got a slow leak within a week.
Pumping it up again did not help, though it is possible I simply received a defective item, or my [persnickety] cat took out its aggression on this ball while I was away.
That being said, I CAN tell you that using it as a seat will offer you a good core and stability exercise. I was enjoying the subtle, but constant workout of my abs and lower back, which is why I was so disappointed when it deflated.

 Sitting on it as I write this!Mar 04, 2009
By BTrain
I got sick and my therapist recommended I get one of these for two reasons. 1, to do exercises with and 2, to sit on at work. After buying it, I never really used this particular model for exercises, since I my therapist always had their own...from experience though these things make a lot of exercises harder, and I've become a fan of using them to strengthen your abs and your other core muscles.
I took this one to work and sit on it like a chair. It is not really comfortable enough to sit on full time, so I keep my office chair nearby and usually switch after about 4 hours. Sitting on it does improve your posture and seems to really help your core strength as well since you can't slough down and lean on anything like a chair back.
Per other reviews. Mine might have smelled like vinyl when I first got it, but that quickly faded. Yes, the pump that is included sucks, and worse off there isn't a standard hole on it so you can't use a regular pump to inflate it. This isn't too big of a problem since you only really inflate it once and it holds the air pretty well. Also, according to another review regarding slow leaks...mine has never had any leaks. I inflated it at home and actually carried it to work I think I had to re-inflate it once and that was more to get comfortable with it and haven't had to pump it up since over the last couple of months.

Keeps its bounceMar 15, 2007

My only issue is the pump tip can get stuck and you can loose some inflation, but otherwise it works as advertised.
