I’m a 5′ 2″ adult, and I purchased this ball to help with physical therapy exercises I have to do as a result of having had a total knee replacement. I bought the 45 cm ball, and it’s the perfect size for me for bending and straightening my knee while lying down, wall squats, and adductor muscle exercises. It’s a great price and very sturdy. So glad I bought it!

Bought this ball to replace one from a chair that had busted. It fits perfectly and seems more durable than the one being replaced. Very happy to have it.

Bought it as it was required for my child conditioning classes. Appears to be good quality thick, firm and heavyish. Interesting, a few other kids have the same ball (brand and colour), but theirs a bit bigger and softer. Not sure if it gets softer with time or the material is inconsistent between batches

Easy to inflate, very strong. Kid loves bouncing on it. Totally recommend.

My one year old son needed PT primarily for his back and core muscles. This was a perfect size for his exercises.
Jasmine –
even though he is still a bit short for the size, but he loves it, loves sitting on it, or bounces it. I trust the brand, and it does not have any smell and very sturdy.

It helps me to exercise and helps my autistic son to regulated himself. I donated one to his classroom and it seems to have helped them a lot.

Genial para los peques y clases en casa. Los más inquietos, pueden sentarse y “brincar” sin moverse de lugar.

So far so good! I bought this child size exercise ball for my 6 year old son. I wanted to try and keep him off mine! He is a bit on the small size but seems to fit him fine. So I think it could work for a tall 4 or 5 year old as well. I have also seen one of my above average height teens sitting on it. Granted with the 13 year old his knees were no where near straight. The ball will definitely support a child of 125lbs! I think a 7 or 8 year old could also use this ball comfortably. The ball seems to be made of thick material. I did see some reviewers stating they did not recieve a child size ball. The Gaiam ball we received was definitely the correct size. It seems to be approximately 16″ in height. This is an approximate measurement as it’s a ball and I didn’t get fancy with how I measured. Overall I think is good quality and from the research I did online this brand is supposed to be highly rated for the adult size balls, so I figure it’s a good choice for a child. Just to note my children, 3 boys treat this ball like a ball at times bouncing it. My 6 year old also rolls all around on it on his belly for fun, he is pretty rough with it and it’s held up great over the 2 months we’ve owned it. I would definitely reccomend this child’s exercise ball to a friend.
