Aeris Swopper review
User has been using the Aeris Swopper, a spring-mounted swivel stool that requires active balancing with legs and back. Despite an initial learning curve where friends have fallen off, the user adapted and can sit for hours. The chair significantly helped with back pain and posture improvement, though the roller version is less stable during bouncing.
Pros
- Significantly helped with back pain
- Improved posture
- Built like a tank with solid construction weighing 10kg
- Keeps legs active while sitting through constant balancing
- Spring and swivel design allows bouncing and 360-degree rocking
- Non-roller version provides better stability
- User adapted well and can sit for hours without problems
- Worth the $1K price point for the user
Cons
- Steep learning curve - friends fell off immediately when unaware of balancing requirement
- Can be tiring initially
- Roller version does not always lock properly causing base to shift during bouncing
