You're right, I'll probably eventually get used to it. I did sit on it for about a week a few months ago.

I never liked the chair and I've been sitting in it for five years. (Actually, I sat on the sofa with my laptop until about a year ago.) You can't see all of it but it's very traditional, straight, covered in stained pink cloth, and it's just a bit too high for me. (FYI, Frank - or I - could fix it but he's letting me get rid of it!)

I recommend you to use it for some time, then changing back to something else, then go back. As your muscles get stronger, you will be able to use it for longer periods of time. Also remember to change your posture from time to time by leaning forwards or backwards, IMO that's the best thing of those balls.
