 Poor Product with Missing Parts Sep 08, 2010
I ordered this brand-new from amazon.com. But after I inflated the ball, it kept deflating. According to the instruction manual, a plug and a tape measure should have been included. Neither were included in the box. Very annoying! I am returning it for a refund. Don't waste your $$$.
 Held up Sep 01, 2010
This ball held up to a lot of use. We used it to sit on and bounce baby to sleep, boys played on it rolling around, and even used it for some exercise occasionally.
 Check the sizes!!! Aug 24, 2010
Either this ball doesn't pump up to the full 55cm or the description and estimations are wrong. I'm not quite 5'3" and I have short legs. So, based on reviews I had read this ball sounded like it should work. Short with short legs... Nope. It was still too small. I did like the ball itself and the pump that came with it. So, I bought the 65cm ball which has worked out well. That one, however, does not pump up to the full 65cm without getting to hard to work with. If you're going to buy a stability ball make sure you ask a trainer or someone which size would work best for you based on your leg length and not necessarily your height.
Wrong Size -- Again! Aug 17, 2010
This is the 2nd ball I've purchased through Amazon that came mislabeled as 65cm. The first was the TKO (which, by the way, is much better quality than the Valeo). I ordered 65cm and both balls, despite what the boxes said, were only 55cm. I already have a 55cm ball (which is correctly labeled BTW and which I did measure to make sure that it really is 55cm). I'm starting to think it is impossible to get a 65cm from Amazon!
Good exercise or stretching ball Aug 12, 2010
I bought a couple of these balls to stretch my back and to occasionally do light bench/military presses on. Balls are balls. Nothing really remarkable here, so I'll comment on the build-quality. The construction appears solid and as are the others in my home that I've been using for 2 years. The included foot pump is compact and brightly colored like a kid's toy (yellow and blue plastic). It takes a LONG time to inflate the ball with it. I stopped counting after 300 pumps. I alternated feet and got tired from the pumping. I would suggest a bike pump instead.
Lastly, the ball has a slightly greasy feeling from the manufacturing process. I always wash my balls before using.
