 It's Okay... Sep 07, 2010
It would have been nice if it came with a foot pump instead of a hand pump (yeah, just looks...weird)I am 5'7 1/2 and the recommended size for me was 65cm. This suits me okay, but definitely on the smaller side. The plastic plug also doesn't seem to fit right but there's been not a lot of air loss. Overall, not bad - you pay for what you get, right?

so close and yet so far Aug 19, 2010
My 75cm TKO balance ball arrived already looking worse for wear. It had a big scrape on it and some hard 'white' pinch marks which had probably happened during the packing process. I was a little wary of using it at first, but it still seemed to be 'structurally sound'.
I liked the texture, slighty rubbery, and not at all shiny.
It didn't collect dust and fibres as I'd feared, another plus.
However, if I sat on it for long my legs and back began to ache, and seeing that that was the reason to buy it in the first place - as a work seat, I wasn't thrilled. I talked to my physio about it as she had recommended this to me, and she asked me to show her how I used it. It dawned on us then that my 75cm ball was in fact only about 55cm. The same size as hers.
SOMEBODY PLEASE SEND THESE CHINESE MANUFACTURERS A CORRECT METRIC MEASURE!
I measured it when I got home, and sure enough, just above 55cm
I've replaced it with a 'natural fitness' 75cm ball, also manufactured in China, and you guessed it. Nowhere near 75cm!!
However this one, (natural fitness) fully pumped and tight as a drum at least manages to reach around 68cm (not easy to measure these guys). I can't be bothered with the hassle and expense of returning this one, because I order from Europe and the shipping costs coming and going make it a very expensive trial and error.
I think that for someone who's looking for a 55cm almost black fitness ball this could be the go. I'll give them the benefit of the doubt over it's roughed up condition, probably is a rare thing, but who knows? Perhaps the guy who oversees packaging is also the guy who's in charge measurements.

 Wrong size Aug 17, 2010
I ordered a 75cm fitness ball. This ball was not even 60cm fully inflated. I see this is a common problem with this brand. I would suggest trying a different company - one with better quality control.
Good product Aug 04, 2010
Got it for my wife, she uses it to stretch her back , she is happy, I got this bigger size because I read they tend to be smaller than their listed sizes. This one also didn't measure to 75 cm inflated, was more like 65 cm.
 not a bad deal Aug 04, 2010
This exercise ball is very sturdy, the pump sucks but it works. Hay you get what you pay for and still it's not a bad deal.
