Revbalance Focus - Standing Desk Balance Board

TLDR: The first board broke on day one. The second board is holding strong!It was the Revolution Balance Board Pro vs. the FluidStance as I like to buy the more expensive stuff. More expensive = better quality... usually. The FluidStance is quite a bit more expensive and does not offer different bottoms to adjust the kind of balancing one wants to do. With the Revolution, you can fill the bubble base up for a more difficult stance or go all the way to the actual roller on the pro edition. In comparison to FluidStance that is a lot of extra for less cost. However, you're still paying for more than some of the other options on the market.A coworker has the Amazon Basics balance "circle" and it isn't as comfortable to stand on. It is good for about 10 to 20 minutes. I've stood on the Revolution board all day.As for the first one breaking, it was one of the rubber feet. It broke within 30 minutes of pulling it out of the box by my 90lb-year-old son. Obviously, it was defective and Revolution Focus agreed. They immediately sent a new deck to me and the rubber feet are far softer. No issues!Good on them to still act like a Kickstarter startup even though they're well past that stage. Not only have they delivered a quality product, but they also earned my respect for their professionalism.

This wooden board is very well built, very sturdy. The inflatable diaphragm that it sits on appears to be made to last as well, I'm not worried about it popping. TIP: make sure the white plastic stopper is situated under the board so that you can't see it - if you can see it the edges of the board will slowly loosen the stopper and you will lose air pressure. A quick online chat to Revolution resolved this and it only happened once; they should state this in the instructions. Anyway, I get a mini workout while using it, and because of that it's actually less fatiguing than just standing there in one static position and the work day just seems to go by quicker because it's fun to use. I have yet to graduate to the 'pro' cylinder, but hope to work my way up to it. I *highly* recommend this for purchase.

Looks like product didn’t have the best sand job or painting. Edges and grips are pretty rough.

At first, I thought this board to be too difficult for me. But, after starting with less air in the cushion, I am able to do short periods at a time and am confident I will be able to build up my core and balance to be able to spend more of my day on this board. I love this for work! Sitting in a chair all day long literally ruins the spine and sitting on a ball for more than an hour hurts the booty. Being able to stand and balance is challenging and fun making my work day more productive and enjoyable while making me stronger day-by-day. The quality is outstanding and customer service is first rate. Thank you!

When delivered there is nothing included to inflate the support, so the product cannot work on its own and the price is misleading.

So I decided to up my game! Instead of just standing at my desk, I now use my balance board to try to get some form of exercise during the work hours. It didn't take me too long to get used to and I am getting better and stronger the more I use it. Sometimes it's hard to type and balance at the same time....It's easy to be lazy and lean on my keyboard. My back and neck feel better the more I stand and balance. In fact I am now very bitter if I have to sit during my work day. It's a win for me and most days the only exercise I get.

I really like it overall. The top part could have use a slightly softer material for used in socks.My only real complain is that instead of the cylinder in the pro edition, they should provide the rocker ( half cylinder ). Especially because it is only available bundle with the inflatable piece, that is already provide.

I recently received my Revolution Focus Standing Desk Balance Board and am loving it! My physician recommended it to me as part of a comprehensive treatment program to help improve/reverse osteopenia, with which she's had a lot of success. The balance board is specifically for just that - to improve balance. I've been using a standing desk for 2 years, so transitioning to the balance board is really comfortable for me. I'm very happy with my purchase. The only thing I'm wondering about is how easy it'll be to carry to the office. I work 60% from home and 40% at the office. I think I can carry it in my computer roller bag if it's not too stuffed with my computer, files, and books.

The board and the pillow worked fine, but the roller was too soft, so if you stopped rolling from side to side, the board would dig down into the roller making it impossible to roll freely - This essentially made the whole thing useless for me.
