Office Fitness Ball Chair - Includes exercise DVD Reviews

4.8 Rating 31 Reviews
I purchased this chair because I have lower back pain. I've had it now for about 6 months and find that at the end of the day my back feels much better. This chair forces you to sit upright which takes all the pressure of your back. Very comfortable chair to sit on for long periods of time.

I bought this to use at a desk at home and just love it. Initially the ball does seem much too small, but it really does grow before your eyes to fit the chair perfectly. It's great for posture and the bouncing is fun too. Even my teenager daughter has emerged from her bedroom to sit at my desk - her A Level revision has been taken to a whole new level thanks to this chair!

"I was looking for a desk ball chair after using one at my doctor's office, and this one fit the bill. Cheaper than most of the others I saw, it's a very good quality ball and base. It was also easy to assemble, as the chair came with instructions and an air pump. It also came with a list of exercises to do with the chair, which is a nice addition. It's great for active sitting and toning up core muscles while improving posture. Plus, I've had a lot of fun bouncing up and down on it. :)"

"This is my second ball chair from this company. The first one was the version with adjustable back support which my teenage son has now been using for some weeks. Because he seems so happy with it I decided to take the leap and buy the backless variety for myself. I suffer from chronic lower back pain and have come to accept that nothing really helps much. But it seems I may be wrong...in the few days I've been using this chair the pain in my back has easily halved. Especially noticeable when I wake up ... can actually walk straight. Having this ball chair is the only change I've made recently so I can only attribute the improvement to sitting differently. It's also very comfortable to sit on,well built and easy to move around(providing you take the brakes off first). Upon assembling the chair, there was a hiccup with some of the nuts supplied having the wrong thread. It was no big deal...I simply emailed office supplies and they immediately sent the correct replacement nuts. For me this is the best chair I have ever used for working at my desk, and would recommend it to anyone whether they have a back problem or not."

Bought this for myself for the office, even got it delivered there! I really suffer with lower back pain and sitting all day doesn't help so at least having a bounce keeps me moving and everyone always talks about it!

Product arrived promptly. V easy to assemble. My only problem was my lack of stamina to inflate the balloon - had to enlist the help of a friend. So far, so good - my lower back pain has eased.

I somehow managed to hurt my back so it was suggested that I try this Office Fitness Exercise Ball Chair. It wasn't cheap but it certainly helped with the discomfort on a day to day basis so it could be considered value for money. In addition, the delivery was extremely quick

"I brought this gym ball chair since I work from home a lot and my normal office chair was causing me to have backaches all the time. I read that the gym ball chair is suppose to help and after reading the reviews, I thought I'd give it a go. It's been a week since I've had the chair and the backaches seem to have reduced a lot to nearly nothing. Since I've used the gym ball before I got used to using it as a chair pretty quick. the product itself is easy to assemble and the ball is pretty quick to pump up as they provide a good quality pump. Just remember that you can pump it more as the ball will stretch. I made the mistake thinking the ball was too small for the chair frame but I hadn't pumped it enough. Office Furniture advise to pump it a bit more over the first few days to give the ball time to adjust. The feet of the chair comes with 4 wheels that can be set to move or be stable. As for the customer service from office furniture, they provide a brilliant after service. They always replied to my messages within 1 day and helped to solve all the issues I had. I would highly recommend purchasing from office furniture. I brought a few other items from them and they even sent me pdf versions of the exercises you could do. I would recommend getting a cover for the ball as its more comfortable to sit on especially in the hot summer. I like the different patterns you can get. I purchased the zebra one."
