It does it's job. - Reviewed on 2008-11-11

I bought this ball to use as a replacement chair for work. The normal work chairs aren't very comfortable.

The ball itself is well constructed. The plastic is thick and I don't have to worry about it getting punctured. The only problem I have with the ball is can become a static cling and everything sticks to it.

The device that came with the ball to blow it up is a nuisance. If I had an actual air-pump at work, I would have used that instead. It takes forever to blow up a 75cm ball with the included pump. It also made this high-pitch whine from the air passing into the ball. After I was done blowing the ball up after I got it, the tube that you use between the ball and the pump broke. Needless to say, the quality isn't the greatest.

However, the ball gets the job done and the price is fair.

Not Burst Resistant - Reviewed on 2008-10-12

I didn't realize this wasn't burst resistant like several others I have ordered when I ordered it. It is clearly thinner than the burst resistant versions and a little scary to use for that reason.
It was my fault for not realizing that "burst resistant" was not part of the description for this ball. Although really I don't even know why they sell this type. The burst resistant balls are not significantly more expensive, but they do provide significant piece of mind.
I will use this ball as a desk chair, but I will not use it as a part of any workout.
