 Exercise ball way too small Oct 11, 2008
By Terry M. Boltz
This set comes with lots of equipment including a well-detailed book, wide choice of video workouts (although they are boring, the exercises are quite effective,) and a terrific set of supplementary equipment. However, 3-in-one ball only comes in one size --26"-- which is way too small, and I am only 5'6". The video instructors use larger balls that fit them.
I am quite disappointed and will have to return it to the store.

good equipment, but watch out for the DVDs Aug 13, 2008
By J. Loveday

The set may be worth it for the equipment alone - the ball, band, and web all seem to be good quality. I bought this set from Sam's Club, and afterward found out on the publisher's website that the DVD is not intended for North America. *edit: the publisher's website references and ISBN different from mine - my version may indeed be intended for U.S. use* My home DVD player could not play any of the DVDs. My laptop managed to start one of them, but it could not play the other two because the disks are warped! Not sure if I'll be returning the set yet - I needed a ball anyway, and the additional equipment may be worth the overall price - but if you're looking for instruction (and especially if you live in the U.S.), best to look elsewhere. The book is 192 pages with full color photographs and looks like it has helpful information in it, but the binding does not allow it to lie flat and thus is difficult to use while exercising.
Agreed--Ball too small May 13, 2012

I purchased this kit at Half Price Books--fabulous store btw. However I agree with the other reviews...the ball is too small. And even though it does say 26 inch ball, when I measured it, it is NOT 26 inches. It might be about 16 or 17 inches by my measurements, which is roughly 43 cm. That is close to the 45cm exercise ball, which is 2 sizes down from what should be in this box. The store is letting me return it...I am 6ft tall and 160 lbs--this ball will not work :) Get me an actual 26 inch ball and it might.
This link might be helpful: [...] So, if you fall in the 5ft and under range, this ball should work for you.
Good luck!!
 Great item! Free ball is a nice touch. May 10, 2012

The set includes a DVD, a book, and a yoga ball that measures 26 in. or 66 cm. The ball is a nice size for my height (5'5), and works perfectly for me. The DVDs provide fun, interactive workouts and allow me to monitor my progress by comparing techniques to those of the instructors. I've owned several of these throughout the years and have been quite pleased. Great product, Amazon!
