For good seating
I actually bought this because I have had killer low back pain for the past few weeks. I'm studying for an important exam and sit/study for 16 hours a day. I had been alternating on a kitchen chair, desk chair, and standing, but my back still hurts. I'm also pretty sure I have poor posture on my own. I know some people use these to sit on for good posture-sake and for the last week, I've been using this about 3-4 hours to sit and study on with a straight back and my feet edged against the bottom of the ball, and my back pain has improved significantly! Yay! I can endure 4 more weeks of this study schedule. The 55 cm is perfect for my height - 5' 3" - and occasionally I'll do some exercises on it for fun - it's good for that too :P

This product is very well made
The material is strong and I love it! I do multiple workouts with my ball and have not had any problems with it.

So So ...
Product no better/worse than other similar items ...
Don't know whether an oversight (if so not a ringing endorsement of Fitness Gear's QC) but a lack of instructions/helpful hints very frustrating.

Know your size.
I received a 75cm ball early this year and just purchased this 55cm. I'm not sure if it is just this brand or not, but the sizes are different than the balls I use at the gym. The 55cm is smaller and the 75cm is bigger than the ones I'm used to. I'm 5'9 and I think the 65cm would be the perfect size.

Oblong shaped
I was disappointed my ball wasn't exactly a ball; it was oblong-shaped. I did not inflate it enough initially, but when I inflated it more it was still oblong-shaped. I was using it as a chair, but one direction had a shorter height and it would tend to roll to one side make it not very effective. I had to return it. The orange color was pretty.

great color - my son loves it for his classroom!
My 4th grade son sits on this at school instead of a chair and he loves it!

Not Worth the Price
I should have read the reviews prior to purchasing this ball, but it was an impulse decision. I bought it primarily to sit on as I work, but quickly found out that would never happen. As someone else pointed out, the ball is too small (I also followed the guide on the box), it was incredibly difficult to blow up, and it still isn't the proper size or firmness. To add insult to injury, the DVD that came with it was broken and unusable.

Too small
I Chose the size of ball based on the legend on the box, but I should have gotten a larger size. Other than that, it is fine.
