An exercise ball provides endless possibilities of exercises. It focuses on the core balancing muscles which can also be used for strength training. I use it mostly for my abs. The wall of the ball is very thick and sturdy, so I don’t ever have to worry about popping it. I use some at the gym which feel very thin and don’t provide as much support. The included dual action pump inflates the ball rather quickly.

I took a look at quite a few stability balls before buying this one. I wanted a ball that could handle weightlifting excercises and the use of heavier dumbbells while still feeling secure under my body. This unit fits the bill very well. It is very good quality. I had no problem pumping it up with the supplied pump. It has held the air very well since I pumped it up. The included DVD is a nice added touch for those who like to have pictured step by step instructions. There is no lasting rubber smell that I can detect. I am very pleased with this purchase. I had also followed up with GOFIT customer support prior to my purchase to get some additional information and to see how they respond, and it was a good experience. Thumbs up on this product.

I use these balls for desk chairs. The last two balls developed leaks so I looked for a ball with a sturdier, thicker rubber. So far this Go Fit ball seems to fit the bill.

I have been sitting in the exact same chair at work for almost five years, and recently, my body had started to complain about it. I had the idea of sitting on an exercise ball for a large part of the day, and shopped around a little before getting this one. After three weeks of sitting on it almost 10 hours a day, I couldn’t be happier. Physically, I feel much better, and the ball itself seems to be holding up extremely well. I am about 5’6″, and this ball is the perfect size for me to sit on. It holds its air well, and I haven’t had any issues regarding a rubbery smell (which I hear can happen with these things). I definitely recommend this.

We got this ball to help with our daughters physical therapy. It was just what we were looking for.

This is a GREAT stability ball! I should note however that when mine arrived it was red instead of purple (as shown), but I actually preferred this. The ball itself is extremely thick and very durable. Once inflated (which yes can take awhile) it holds its own and doesn’t buckle under weight. I use this ball for weightlifting and exercises and for the first time ever, I feel stable lifting weights on a stability ball. The ball is sturdy enough to support you and yet give a little too in the right ways. This is a great ball for anyone looking for a sturdier, more durable stability ball. This was a great price and shipped very fast, in fact I got it the next day!
There are no instructions for inflation however most recommend you fill the ball 80-85% full, let it set for 24 hours and then top it off to about 90-95% and let it set again so that the plastic adjusts. Never fill the ball more than 95% of its maximum diameter (in this case 65cm).

I’ve had this for about a week. I’m over 200 lbs and have been on this ball for over 30 minutes each day. It’s held up even with heavy bouncing. I’ve had shoudler surgery, so this really helps with some exercises that normally would be impossible. It’s a good ball, with minor odor that goes away in a couple of days. I haven’t watched the dvd, but I’ll get to that this weekend. Right now I’m mainly doing therapy with it.

I’ve owned this ball about 6 weeks now and I use it as my desk “chair”. The wonderful dark purple color looks great in my office and it was very easy to blow up with the included pump. Durable so far–I’ve taken it to a weekend training and back with no problems and after the initial “breaking in” period, I’ve only had to add air once–as I expected. I am very sensitive, but detected little or no odor when I opened the package. My only suggestion to the manufacturer is that they include a plastic tool to ease out the stopper. I had one from a previous ball and it works more easily than a coin.

This is a good, very solid ball and seems to be of much higher quality than a ball I bought at Wal-mart that went flat. I would recommend this ball and am planning to buy 2 more as gifts.
As far as the contents of the box, the plug was missing for the ball and there were no instructions on how to blow it up. I went to the company website and filled out the contact form and they mailed 2 plugs free of charge the very next day and I had them in less than a week. I also found that the plug I saved from the Wal-mart ball also worked. The customer service wrote this: “Sometimes the ball plug is already in the ball – it is white & hollow in the middle similar to a golf tee – other times it may be taped to the inside of the box by the DVD…”
I followed instructions from the Wal-mart ball to inflate it to 80 inches, and the last few inches are a lot of work to finish it off. The pump worked very well for me, a woman, but broke the first time my husband tried to pump to help me. It glued back together solidly with epoxy and I was able to use it again, but had to do all of the pumping myself.
I give the ball itself 5 stars, but the packaging and pump were not so great and I’d give those only 2 or 3 if I could split up my rating.
Update: I bought 3 more of these to give as gifts and all 3 arrived with the plugs included, so I think I had an unusual experience with the first ball.

Product is very sturdy. I was satisfied with quality of product. Instructions for inflating product are nonexistent in box but it is not hard to figure out.
