Customer Reviews

Powerball - Fantastic! Buy one now!!
I wasn't quite sure what this was or exactly what it did when I saw it. However I ordered it after reading a few reviews. Stupid thing to do? Absolutly NOT! Powerballs are brilliant, but hard work. It looks like a plastic ball encased by another plastic ball. But set it going and its more of a work-out than using free weights. Once you set it going give it five minutes, if that!, and you will feel it working. It works out your fingers, wrist, forearm and upper arm. For somehing that looks so simple it is absolutly amazing.
After I brought one I showed a few mates, every person I showed now has one. Most reviews seem a bit extreme, but they really are as good as these people say. Worth the next-to-nothing price they are.
Buy one and you won't regret it!

Why are there not more stars!
I have been using my powerball for over two years now and I love it as much now as when I first got it. The manufacturer's description really doesn't do this product justice, although their website does. If you use this powerball at low speeds it is great for RSI and other wrist/arm injuries. At high speeds it gives an amazing workout and really builds up all the arm and shoulder muscles. The build quality is incredible (do not be tempted by inferior wannabes) and the lifetime guarantee is unbeatable. I've had to replace a small part already (due to my intensive usage!) and they sent out the part quickly, free of charge and with full fitting instructions, can't say fairer than that! It is truly addictive and put it on a table in a room full of friends and you will all soon be fighting to out do one another on high speeds and other stats that the computer on top measures. I could write so much more about this product, but really you've got to buy one and try for yourself, you will not regret it!

I finally got the hang of it...
When I received this item I was excited to get it out of the box and to see what all the fuss was about. You can imagine my disappointment then when I couldn't get it working. Fortunately, as with most things, a little perseverence paid off and I finally got the gyroscope buzzing along.

I bought this to use as described to help protect against injuries such as RSI as I like to to many crafts that can cause my hands to ache and cramp. Having only used the powerball for a short while I can't say for certain how effective it will be to guard against this but the initial signs are promising. If you use this daily just long enough to get a gentle ache, and at only gentle to moderate speeds then you should notice (as I have) that good kind of aching you get when muscles have been worked.

I don't think much to the electronic interface as although the idea of being able to measure your highest speed is fun... once you've achieved a high speed and then subsequently failed many times to better it this function then becomes defunct.

Overall I'd say this is an interesting buy and if you're intrigued by it as I was, then go ahead and order one. The price is not unrealistic for the obvious R&D and production of this item so treat yourself... even if you only end up using it as a toy.
