I have purchased multiple Gaiam balance balls and was very disappointed with this product. It is smaller then expected since I ordered the same size as a balance ball previously purchased. The legs are a joke, they are just extensions of the ball and are supposed to fill up with air. They do not even hold the ball up by itself much less when I child sits on it.

As a fourth-grade teacher, engaging my students and keeping them focused during lessons is always a priority. The Gaiam Kids Stay-N-Play Inflatable Balance Ball Desk Chair has been an absolute game-changer in my classroom. Not only does it provide a comfortable seating option, but it also encourages active sitting, which has had a noticeable impact on my students' attention spans and overall engagement. The vibrant blue color adds a pop of fun to our learning environment, and the stability legs ensure that the chairs stay securely in place, even during the most energetic moments.What I love most about these balance ball chairs is their versatility. Whether my students are working independently at their desks, participating in group activities, or listening to a lesson, the chairs accommodate their movements and provide the support they need to stay focused. Additionally, the inflatable design makes them easy to store and transport, allowing me to rearrange my classroom layout with ease. Plus, they're durable enough to withstand the daily wear and tear of an active classroom environment.Overall, the Gaiam Kids Stay-N-Play Balance Ball Desk Chair is a fantastic addition to any classroom setting. It promotes better posture, strengthens core muscles, and encourages movement, all while providing a comfortable and fun seating option for students. If you're looking to create a dynamic learning environment that fosters engagement and active participation, I highly recommend giving these chairs a try. Your students will thank you for it!

I got my twins these when they were too young and they couldnt really use them to their fullest potential. They played with them for sure but never used them for what I hope they will use them for this time. I have another kid and all 3 are high energy. They are in school and have a hard time sitting. Im hoping that this will encourage them to stay seated at their home desks and maybe school desks as well. Even if they dont these exercise balls are pretty and good quality. I really like them and Im excited to have them back in our home again.

My son is 4 years old and he is a major sensory seeker and he is non-verbal but let me tell you when he is playing with this ball he makes sounds and giggles I've never heard out of him. He loves it and I feel like it is the perfect size for him even though he is a large 4 year old. He bounces on it like no tomorrow, it fulfills a lot of his sensory input needs for the day and I feel like it was a great purchase. I have had it for a couple months now and it has not lost any air and has kept it's shape, very durable. I love that this is helping my sons needs. Thank you for making this product! I highly recommend this for other teachers, parents, therapists, and family!

This is the second purchase of the same item I bought for my son. He loves sitting on it and bouncy on it while playing games and watching tv or just sitting on it. But sadly it ripped recently. Overall its a great product. I will be looking to purchase a new one soon.

Compared to the therapy in balls in education and therapy catalogs (which are grossly over-priced in my opinion), this therapy ball has outstanding quality for the price! Both my girls use this (got each of them one), and it withstand their daily abuse, uh I mean, use.Unfortunately my youngest poked hers with a safety pin, and it never recovered (despite emergency treatment with good ol' duct (duck?) tape. Too short for sitting at a traditional, adult-sized desk, but perfect for kid-sized desks. Plus, you get your bicep and forearm workout for the day by pumping it up (and the inflation lasts for months!).

I bought this ball for my son before we had to start remote schooling this past year. He has terrible posture and I had hoped this would help that as well as accommodate his tendency to wiggle. But it’s just too small for his desk.And yet I give this product 5 stars, because I am quite convinced this thing is indestructible. It has become the favorite gaming seat for my younger two sons. They sit on it. Bounce on it. Ride it like one of those bouncy balls with handles we used to have as kids.And it is absolutely unchanged! It never lost air, never popped or leaked. They love this thing! My younger two are ages 9 and 5, and they are the total opposite of gentle.So it is not being used the way I intended, but it is a fantastic product and I would recommend it to anyone.

Got this for Kindergartner who is learning virtually. Searched many balls-based on reviews went with this one. The material is strong and holds air. Problem with is it difficult for him to actually “sit on” easily without bouncing or rolling around to a point where it’s not the safest to sit on in front of a desk-if he sits on the middle of it it will roll forwards or backwards. I have tried adjusting the amount of air in it but haven’t found a size that makes it easier for him to sit and the instructions aren’t very clear on what diameter it’s supposed to be. He has a good sense of balance in general-I don’t think that is it. My guess is the length of his legs are not long enough to touch the ground when on it-kids have different body proportions even if they are the same “height.” He enjoys (sometimes too enthusiastically) bouncing on in when sitting at his desk) which does get some wiggles out when in front of a screen for hours) so did not return it. However, my goal was to have something he could also keep still on while he writes and does projects. As a reference, I (5’4” and well over 100lbs) am able to balance on it just fine without rolling and it hold up under my weight. Another thing to consider (for those who intend to use this as a replacement for a chair at a desk) is the height of the desk and whether or not it works well in that way. I had a hard time determining this by the description of the ball. The little “legs” on the bottom do prevent it from rolling away when not in use (but they are not meant for nor help in balancing) to a degree. It came with an extra plug to seal it off (doesn’t come with a pump but is easy to inflate with a hand pump). To sum it up, the ball seems to be made of quality material, holds it’s shape and will stay in place when not in use. I gave it less stars because it doesn’t seem the right fit, even though I used the guidelines in the description of the product-which I feel is very important. The “comfort” level and “stability”isn’t great. I found so many choices when searching for an item like this that I just picked one that seemed to have decent reviews. There is a “peanut” shaped one out there-but seems like it not made to sit in the right direction to use as a chair at a desk. I didn’t have the time or energy to return it and try out other ones-and maybe would have found one that worked out better. If you are looking for a balance ball to use not as a replacement for a chair at a desk (like to sit on while playing video games or just for fun) it’s a quality product and decently priced.
