Overview

Not a regular office chair, the Gaiam balance ball chair pairs an anti-burst ball with a plastic base that has lockable casters. The ball lets the sitter move and engage the core while working at a desk.

The reason to look at it is the all-in-one setup with a stabilizing base, a ball, a pump and a guide of desk exercises. The limitation is a narrow user height range and conflicting assembly information.

Who it's for

Home office users and students who like to move while seated will use the base to hold the ball steady. Anyone taller or shorter than the stated range, or wanting a backrest, should choose a standard chair.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Lockable caster wheels
  • Desktop exercise guide
  • Wipe clean care
Cons
  • Narrow user height range
  • Assembly status conflicts
  • Base style varies by option

Performance notes

An unstable seat makes the sitter's trunk muscles work to hold posture, which is the mechanism behind balance ball chairs. A base with lockable wheels limits the ball from rolling away when getting on and off.
