Reviewed in the United States on December 8, 2023
Not rated on durability only because I’ve had them for couple of months.
It is fine but loses air somewhat quicker than expected when unused. I use foot pump from air mattress to inflate it.
Inflation is easy but during the time between removing the pump nozzle until the plug is inserted a lot of air is lost no matter how quick you are. Basically you need to overinflate to compensate for the loss. It should be constructed better to keep the air in better for a short time without a plug.
Another issue is when you need to re-inflate it is really difficult to remove the plug. You will probably break your fingernails while trying (or have them separate from the fingers). I have another ball (22in) from a different brand and it comes with a plastic prying tool just for that. But this ball doesn't.
Top reviews from other countries
They are not as elastic, smaller in size after inflating and much less sticky. It is quite disappointing experiencing such difference in quality.
I use them for Pilates exercises
Hope you can enhance quality control.
