We ordered the Large (23"-26") MINK.FIT purple yoga ball. Once inflated, the product sizing information is accurate.Our exercise ball has a very grippy (anti-slip) outer surface. This makes it easy and safe for us to use since this makes it hard for us to unexpectedly slide off of it.The exercise ball was very stable when fully inflated. This makes it great for various exercises and as an alternative form of a sitting chair.The MINK.FIT extercise ball is very similar in build quality when compared to other brands.The included air pump does work, but I tend to use a powered inflator to speed up the process.We ordered a purple exercise ball and we couldn't be happier with our choice.Even our grandchildren love to play with this exercise ball.

I love it! I use it to do my shoulder exercises.

The MINK.FIT Yoga Ball in Black (Large, 65cm) offers a versatile tool for various fitness and therapy needs, including yoga, Pilates, core workouts, balance training, pregnancy support, and physical therapy. While it provides excellent quality and functionality, potential buyers should consider the sizing chart and inflation process carefully.Material and Construction:The ball is constructed from a thick, anti-slip material that feels durable and robust. The extra thickness is a notable feature, providing enhanced stability and support during exercises. The anti-slip surface ensures a secure grip, preventing the ball from sliding or rolling during use. The overall construction feels high-quality, suggesting the ball can withstand regular use and maintain its shape over time.Sizing Considerations:The large (65cm) size is advertised for individuals between 23'' and 26'' in height. However, my experience suggests that individuals on the taller end of this range, particularly those around 5'11", might find the ball slightly undersized. While it still functions effectively, a larger size might provide a more comfortable and optimal fit. Potential buyers should carefully consider their height and consult the sizing chart before purchasing.Inflation Process:The ball comes with a hand pump, but as noted, using this pump for full inflation could be lengthy. A mechanical pump is highly recommended for faster and more efficient inflation. Inflation took approximately 20 minutes using a mechanical pump, which is reasonable for a ball of this size. The valve is secure and prevents air leakage, ensuring the ball maintains its inflation.Performance and Versatility:The MINK.FIT Yoga Ball performs admirably in various exercises and applications. It supports core workouts, balance training, and flexibility exercises. The ball's stability makes it suitable for Pilates and yoga routines, and its thickness provides a comfortable surface for seated exercises. The ball's versatility also extends to pregnancy support and physical therapy, offering a gentle and effective way to improve posture and strengthen muscles.Anti-Slip Feature:The anti-slip surface is a valuable feature. It provides a secure grip and prevents the ball from sliding during exercises. This is particularly important for balance training and exercises that require stability.Pros:Durable and robust construction.Extra thick material for enhanced stability.Anti-slip surface for secure grip.Versatile for various fitness and therapy needs.A high-quality valve prevents air leakage.Cons:The hand pump is inefficient for full inflation.Sizing might be undersized for taller individuals.Overall:The MINK.FIT Yoga Ball is a high-quality, versatile fitness tool with excellent durability and functionality. While the included hand pump is not ideal for full inflation, a mechanical pump resolves this issue. Potential buyers should carefully consider the sizing chart to ensure they select the appropriate size for their height. Despite the sizing consideration, the ball's robust construction, anti-slip surface, and versatility make it a valuable addition to any fitness or therapy routine.

I’ve been watching lots of videos lately about ways I can stretch and workout using a big yoga ball. I’m excited about adding this to my exercise routines. This Yoga Ball is particularly nice because it is extra thick and sturdy and a great size. I’m a little on the heavier side and I feel completely supported using this ball (which they say can hold up to 700 pounds!). It holds me up well whether I’m sitting on it, lying over it, or leaning on it. It’s so much fun to just sit and bounce on it! I hear that is really good for the lymphatic system. And if I tilt my hips and lean back a little, it’s a great tummy workout – more effective than doing sit-ups! It also feels amazing to just lie over it and stretch out my back. This is a really good quality yoga ball with a nice grippy surface and has lots of safety features. A great choice!

It's a yoga ball... BUT seems to be a really nice quality when inflated. The only reason for a loss of stars is not because of the ball itself, but the pump supplied. Mine had a crack in it that made it's use impossible. Luckily I had a similar pump to use for this.

This review is for the "MINK.FIT Yoga Ball, Anti-Slip Stability Exercise Ball for Pilates, Extra Thick Birthing Ball for Pregnancy, Fitness, Gym Ball for Core Workouts, Balance, and Physical Therapy (Purple, L (23''~26'') 65cm)."This is your standard exercise ball. The material feels exactly the same as many other brands, and the pump that comes with it looks just like the pumps that come with other exercise balls. The color is great (we love purple!). We also wanted one that was smaller than our extra large ball. This one works well for smaller people.On the negative side, the little air valve post doesn't sit 100% flush with the surface of the ball. I've tried pushing, taking out and re-inserting, blowing it with more air, blowing it with less air... The valve just won't go in all the way. It's not really noticeable, just kind of annoying. The air doesn't leak out of it so that's good. However, at this price point, I'm not really complaining.If you get this, just make sure of the sizes. The measurements provided are accurate!

This isn’t a Gymnic, and that’s what we had before until it was mysteriously deflated at an our Christmas Eve dinner last year. Then this ball showed up on Amazon and I thought, not? It smelled a bit of PVC at first and was very wrinkly, but I pumped up the ball with the included pump, and it smoothed out over a period of 24 hours, not completely, but I don’t really care if it has any wrinkles in it. After all, I myself am no longer wrinkle free.FYI: The smell went away in 24 around hours, and now I have this great exercise ball. It is the perfect size for us, exactly this size we had before, except it’s blue instead of yellow.There’s really nothing negative to say about this ball. The quality is there and the price is right. If this is what you’re looking for, go for it.
