Product Reviews of Ball Dynamics FitBALL Wedge 13" Iridescent Blue (Retail Box)Product Review: Possibly helpful cushion Summary: 3 Stars
I was hoping the wedge shaped seat would help me sit more upright rather than pitched forward toward the computer screen (this has been causing neck and upper back strain). I tried reversing the wedge so the narrow end was at the back of the chair, but that pressed into my hamstrings, cutting off feeling. My physical therapist recommended it, so I'll keep trying, letting a little air out each day, looking for the perfect fit. I've had this for about a month now and I can't say I love it. But then again, I'm still no sure.
Product Review: So So Summary: 3 Stars
This is better as a back support than a sitting wedge. It's weird and really tall to sit on. I'm 5'9" I don't need another 2 inches to my sitting height. The wedge is nice as a back support though.
After having used it more often I have a few more gripes, this little baby is a sweat creator, now that I've used it for longer periods of time and at different inflation levels, this thing one makes your butt feel dead after you sit on it awhile. Two whether sitting on it or using it for a back rest it creates an awful lot of heat.
If I could edit my stars, we'd be going down to a 1.5, this is not nice for long periods of time.
Product Review: This product is perfumed Summary: 2 Stars
The product was physically what I wanted, but it was saturated with a strong "synthetic fruity" perfume, built into the plastic to mask the smell of the vinyl. I couldn't tolerate the fragrance and had to return it. The seller gave me a refund, and a free shipping return label, so I can't complain about service. But anyone who has intolerances to fragrances should be aware that all these Ball Dynamic products are saturated with perfume -- which will take much much longer to dissipate than the vinyl smell would on its own.
Product Review: comfortable seating Summary: 5 Stars
I am both a physical therapist and a person with back pain. I learned about this product at a continuing education seminar I took for my profession. If you have pain in your butt or low back when sitting, this cushion will make sitting less uncomfortable (note I did not say pain free). People without pain also like it for it's softness. One caution: The cushion is only 13" wide, although it squishes a little wider than that when you sit on it. Therefore, it is not big enough for people with wide hips.
Product Review: recommended by doctor! Summary: 5 Stars
i am a physician who uses this product, as well as the seating disc made by the same people, VERY SUCCESSFULLY, as part of the treatment for pain, especially when there is a lot of sitting involved. puts you in the right position to relax the back, does not compress nerves or restrict blood supply. many patients drive and and do plane travel with these products in order to stay pain free!
