The Amazon page for it never mentioned that different balls were for different height users. When the ball arrived the sizing was made clear on the box. So I returned it and ordered this ball (Blue, 65CM) which is meant for my height. Having used balls in my health club, but without ever noticing their size, I was surprised at how large 65 cm was. When properly inflated this ball is too large for me; many of the exercises one does with these balls require wrapping the legs around the ball, which is difficult when it is too large. On the Amazon order page for this (blue) ball and the larger (red) ball, the size/height relationship is stated, and I do fall into the range of this 65 cm ball. But it is simply too large--a fact you can't realize until you inflate it. 5 stars The following review received 25 helpful votes out of 26 total votes: Review Date: 2006-09-04 "Even better than expected" At 5'1", this stability ball is perfect for my height Although the photo shows the ball to be a silvery color, mine is actually a pearly white, which I prefer. Working out with the ball is fun, so it makes it seem much easier. My abs and arms really felt it the next day. 5 stars The following review received 12 helpful votes out of 14 total votes: Review Date: 2006-03-02 "Acceptable ball" Ball was as advertised. Pump a little cumbersome. Pump had a little tear in the tubing that i patched up with tape before I could use it. 3 stars The following review received 10 helpful votes out of 14 total votes: Review Date: 2006-03-14 "I like the size" I am happy with this ball because of the size for my height.

Just make sure you inflate it completely. 4 stars | |
