Gaiam Kids Balance Ball Chair - Classic Children's Stability Ball Chair, Alternative School Classroom Flexible Desk Seating for Active Students with Satisfaction Guarantee, Blue/Green

Easy to Put together, we got for my son since he struggles to sit still. Definitely kids size and sits too low for a standard table so he just uses to for fun now.

This is a great chair for your young kiddo to sit and do homework, color, legos, etc...It comes with a pump, however it does take a bit of time to pump up. I didn't use an air compressor, which would have probably made it easier. The instructions indicate the size of the ball with max blow up - adhere to that. If blown up properly, the ball will fit snuggly into the base, and will allow for firm seating. This is not a toy, not meant to bounce on. It's great for core strengthening and back. Great chair, may buy more. Great for flexible seating within the classroom as well.

My daughter loves this chair. She put it together by herself. The only reason for 4 stars is that it is really short to the ground.

If I could rate this chair out of 10, I’d give it a 12. It has surpassed my expectations. It’s the perfect size for 4-7 year olds. The ball inflates to 15 inches. I will be a customer of this brand for life. I am so impressed! It even came with the tools needed to put the chair together, and a ball pump to inflate the ball. I put it together in under 5 minutes, it was so easy to construct. I will be sharing this product with all of my mom friends.DISCLAIMER: (This review is not sponsored, I used my own money to buy this chair for my 4 year old daughter and in no way has this brand influenced my review! It really is that good!)

Bought for my little who struggles with sitting still with homework/reading. I’ve used this one time and to tell you how totally different his reading was, I can even explain it. He typically gets distracted and stops every few words with some random/unrelated question. Then to get him to sit and read is a struggle. Always starts with a tantrum. And even though he’s in 1st grade and knows punctuation, he wasn’t stopping and taking breaks where he should. So I told him to sit on the ball and read… the very first time he read it straight through. The second time I could tell he was bouncing with the correct rhythm of how a sentence should flow. It blew my mind. I hope this is the answer to smooth homework nights. Much smaller than for a regular desk and bigger than a kiddie table. Perfect for his elf length.

for kindergarten not middle schoolers

The product is as advertised and was delivered when promised and in good condition.

I was nervous when I saw the pictures and negative reviews about the ball being too small. However as other reviewers have mentioned, blowing up the ball is a process. I didn’t even wait an hour....I blew it up...I waited 15 min....deflated it a little, blew it up again (it got bigger)...repeated the process after another 15 minutes and BAM the ball was the full size like in the pictures!It seems to be good quality, the wheels were beyond easy to install, just slide them right in the holes and you’re done! My son is 8 and he is sort of short for his age (like 49” tall). His desk is 25” high from floor to the bottom of the desk (where it would hit your thighs) and I would say this chair is ok. I wish it were about 2 inches taller but like I said I think it will do fine. I’m curious about the adult size but from the measurements it seems that one would be way too big. Kind of wish they had an in between size.As for stability, he’s been using it for a couple hours now and he hasn’t fallen off or anything like that. He’s very wiggly and fidgety and the chair doesn’t seem to be a distraction or a problem for him. He was just excited to have a “bouncy ball” desk chair!
