Birth ball/Gym ball

[allthefires]

I have got a gym ball from Asda a while and although its advertised as a 65cm it actually only 55cm when inflated fully. Its not faulty and after looking at reviews on amazon of similar balls this isnt uncommon!

Remember this was the same as cheap ball from Argos.

Does anyone have any good recommendations for a true to size 65cm one?

Thank you!

I think I might look at Birthease too.

My TK Maxx ball is ok for leaning on but not great for sitting, I feel like my knees are too high. Shame though because it looks lovely.

I've got the birthease one, not measured it but it seems perfectly fine and I'm 5"6. I ordered it Monday AM and it arrived Tuesday :)

Thats interesting alovelybunch as birthease is one of the ones I was looking at. Reassuring they are true to size.

Im 5'2 as well and 65cm is the one recommended. I wonder iif the Txmaxx balls are small also.

65cm should be suitable for up to 5ft 6.

I originally had a TK Maxx one that was 65cm and I felt like I was squatting on the floor and it only pumped up to about 50cm, same problem as OP.

I just love love love my birth ease ball

Tk maxx had some yoga balls 55cm, 65cm & 75cm for £4-7 last weekend.

65cm feels a but small for me though (I'm 5'2") so 75cm probably better in that range.

Birth ease are fabulous ones. About £20 but really good quality and true to size.
