 Good for beginers December 6, 2008
I just started to exercise and the ball works very well and helps with balance and control. The only problem was the inflation instructions they were a little confusing. I called the company and they gave the information I needed but were not that friendly.
 too small September 21, 2008
I ordered the 65 cm ball. I wanted the exact one I was using in Physical Therapy, which was a 65cm theraband ball. This one is the smaller size ball, marked 65cm.???
Very well made August 5, 2008

I liked the "anti-burst" feature of this item. I followed the instructions and added the air, then let it sit over night and added more air. I have then used it for six months and just now am noticing that it could use a little bit more air.
A friend of mine bought an exercise ball at Meijers and it lasted barely a week without needing more air. It leaks constantly so that her son (who she bought it for) ends up using it partially deflated which defeats much of its purpose. I was hesitant to want to deal with that hassle, but this is a much stronger rubber material that is clearly better made then the Meijers one that cost barely half the price as this one.
The color is not however "Red". It is very clearly orange. I really dislike the color. I wish I could have gotten this same ball in white or blue.
 Durable, high quality, but stiff initially January 2, 2008

The Theraband exercise ball is the highest quality ball I have purchased. The only negative is the initial stiffness of the ball. After inflating the ball, it was pretty hard for the first few weeks, making crunches somewhat uncomfortable. In the long run, however, once completely broken in, I think this ball will prove its worth.
Excellent quality stability ball! December 14, 2007

I purchased this ball in the 55 cm size (red). This size seems ideal for my height (just shy of 5'5"), although choice of ball size is also a matter of personal preference. Unlike my previous ball, which was made of a thin, sticky vinyl, this ball is made of thick durable, smooth plastic. Furthermore, my previous ball lost air easily (I had to add air to it every time I used it), whereas I have NEVER had to add air to this ball since I purchased it almost two years ago. It is definitely worth the investment to pay a little more for a ball that is high quality and will never any maintenance, and so I highly recommend this product.
