Great product
Has transformed my working experience during pregnancy. The cover is far more comfortable to sit on than raw rubber and fits nicely in a shared office environment

Helps avoid back pain whilst working long hours!
This ball is an absolute must for anyone that has to sit at a desk for long hours! Whilst sitting, the ball helps you to maintain a good posture and the lower back pain I normally get from remote working has completely gone! Every time I walk past my active sitting ball I have an urge to sit on it, as it relieves any aches in my lower back instantly. As you are balancing in a seated position you can feel your core and leg muscles are engaged, which is great for avoiding the negative results of prolonged sitting. I hardly use a chair anymore. My son also enjoys sitting on it to watch telly or gaming at his desk. :) It’s even great for phone scrolling moments! I highly recommend this active sitting ball, it has changed my work life for the better!

Comfy and stylish seat
Overall a really nice and comfy ball/‘chair’. It’s easy and quick to set up by following the instructions. The ball cover has a handle for easy transport. It’s looks slick and is also very comfy just like an exercise ball - the texture of the cover is also nice.

Great packaging fab fabric needs patience!!!!
Firstly I loved the packaging and the presentation of this sitting ball. The fabric feels great and looks great I feel it would fit in with any decor which if you are using it on a full time basis would be a must for me, unfortunately I feel it’s awkward to keep out especially as I have children and a dog so it gets attention from them all!!! In regards to comfort I feel it was quite comfortable to sit on and use for periods of time but still felt I needed to use a chair at times which to me defeats the purpose of what this is trying to achieve It did help with posture though which is a plus was easy to assemble once I realised you needed to insert the ball into the fabric first (first attempt was a massive fail as I pumped the ball up before putting inside the fabric) total school boy error 🙈 In all a good product if your willing to persevere but feels slightly gimmicky to me

Brilliant for an achy back!
The best thing I’ve ever gotten during my pregnancy! I now use this instead of the couch whilst sitting watching TV and it helps with the dull ache I get constantly in my lower back, it’s so much more comfortable than the yoga ball I had previously been using. I will definitely be continuing to use this at my desk when I return to work after maternity as the Benifits over a work chair are amazing!

Great item to sit on but the cover is loose
This Leitz item was very easy to set up but it needed to be assembled in certain intervals per instructions. Looks more cosy with the cover over the inflatable inner, but unfortunately it looks a bit untidy as the cover is loose and looks like it doesn’t fit the item, I was expecting the cover to be tight. The quality is good and does the job well and is robust. Comes with a pump to inflate. Good modern design.

Great product and well made
Like most people who have a fixed workstation either at home or at the office the constant pressure on the same part of you back can cause issues. The ball was a massively welcome break. Not only jas it alieviated tight and tired muscles but it has also helped my posture. The fabric is thick with a handle to easily move up and down stairs and a robust zip that I can't see goig anytime soon.

Leitz ergo cosy active sitting ball
This ergo active sitting ball has cosy in its title and I was amazed as to how cosy/comfortable it is. A bonus to this product is that it only took 15-20 minutes to pump up/set up. While the sitting ball is comfortable and is helping build my core and enhance my posture, it also looks very stylish in black which blends in well with my work equipment. As a regular sufferer of back pain I would recommend this active sitting ball as a great swap from an office chair as there is more opportunity to keep moving rather than sitting still and it removes the risk of stiffness and bad posture. I also use the ball to support with my yoga exercises and it has helped my wellbeing. The ball has a handle to easily carry it from room to room and it can be stored away very easily. Overall a great purchase which I would highly recommend.

Eases back pain and improves posture.
This has multipurpose uses. I got this for my bad lower back and have been using this instead of a desk chair which has improved my posture and therefore my back massively. Its also great for core exercises, yoga and stretching. This would obviously make a great birth ball too, I used similar when I was in labour but this would be better as it has a removable, washable cover and a handle to move it easily from room to room. The weight limit is 100kg. The diameter is 65cm so it fits under a desk instead of a chair but it is a bit of a pain to store otherwise. I have even been using it whilst watching tv because it eases all you niggles.

Comfortable and good quality.
This ball is so comfy and has really helped me be productive for longer when working from home. I am currently pregnant and have found that my usual office chair hurts my hips and makes my feet swell if I sit for too long. Alternating the chair with the ball has been the best of both worlds. My feet are no longer as swollen by the end of the day and I'm sleeping better because my hips aren't so achy. My partner has also been sitting on the ball while he works and has found his back to be less achy than before. Great for comfort & it is durable, the outer cover makes it much more comfortable than sitting directly on the rubber. It was easy to pump up, took around 10 mins. You then have to leave it a while and inflate some more to get it fully inflated.

Hello,
To know what size Leitz Ergo Cosy Active Sitting Ball to buy, you should choose a ball based on your height, to ensure correct ergonomic posture. When seated, your knees should be at a 90-degree angle with your feet flat on the floor.
Have a nice day!
Hello Auds,
The supplier has advised the following for the Leitz Ergo Cosy Active Sitting Ball:
"Although the sitting balls have not been designed with overzealous feline attention in mind, the inner ball is very thick & robust to allow it to hold up to 100kg in weight, plus the outer fabric cover also provides additional protection. I would suggest this would provide a significant challenge to any cat's claws, however, we cannot provide any guarantee."
Thank you for using Q&A.
