Mini Yoga Pilates Ball 10 Inch for Stability Exercise Training Gym Anti Burst and Slip Resistant Balls with Inflatable Straw

The ball itself seems fine. It comes with a straw to inflate it, ok, no big deal. You do that, then remove the straw to put the plug in and.... the ball deflates quite a lot. There's no built in stopper to keep it from deflating like you'd find in a beach ball - or likely a higher quality product. Look for something better that can be inflated easily without having to be a magician in order to get the stopper into the ball before it deflates too much to be useful. I managed to somewhat get it, but it's really not quite inflated enough to be useful for exercise, in my opinion. Maybe someone out there has a good tip, but I don't see a solid way to do this.

Great ball for extension, glute, and other pilates work and stretches! Very happy with the purchase. Comes with a small paper straw for you to manually inflate, takes about 3 minutes to get done.

For 11year old daughter and ballerina ... needed for prepointe class. Working well.

This one does do the job if you can get past the smell; whatever it is made out of I even hand washed it and it has a very chemical/plasticy type smell to it. I purchased different brand I couldn't work out with it

I almost returned this item. After opening the package, I was disappointed on seeing the tube for blowing up the ball. However, it took only 2 tries to get it blown up sufficiently. You just have to been quick to replace the stopper after pulling out the tube.Works fine.

I purchased several of these balls for my pilates students and the balls do not all inflate to the same size - very disappointing. They all look the same but expand to different sizes no matter how much they are inflated. Other than that they are fine.

The mechanism to inflate this is difficult. One has to pump the air inside the ball, release the pump, place the air stopper. Between pulling the pump and placing the air stopper, the air gets out very quickly. it's okay. If I paid more than $15, then it's too much money for it.

This was not 10" as advertised, more like 7 1/2". This made it useless for my purpose. We returned immediately so I cannot comment on any other quality of it.
