This balance board is very solid and very well made. It's 17.5 in x 13.5. The rocker part on the bottom does NOT go to the edges ( about 3 inches in on the 17 inch side and 2 inches in on the 13 inch side). When you put this on the ground, it can stand by itself. It has two rockers on the bottom which are joined by a solid piece of wood.This is heavy duty and weighs 5lbs. You can turn it around (You stand with feet so that heels are near the shorter side) to rock/wobble/balance backwards and forwards vs side to side (stand with heels inside the longer side) . If you've been to PT, you know what I am talking about. So this board can wobble side-to-side and backwards and forwards.Looking at some of the reviews, I want to add a few words: If you have good balance, this will probably be too easy for you. But if you have poor balance or want to improve your balance, this is a SAFE device. I have tried some of the round wobble boards with the single (curved) ball on the bottom and they present a challenge which is great but when you have poor balance, you don't want to break your neck trying to improve it!This board is sturdy and feels very safe. I put it on thin type carpet and I have had zero slippage. The top is covered with a material that resembles the heavy duty sandpaper grit. It's great for me. It's not the cheapest on this site and I wasn't looking for cheap. I wanted safe.Edited to add 4/19I have central vertigo and I've made tremendous improvements in my balance after 4 months of using this daily. I watched the company video and am now working on turning my head and then turning my head and shoulders while balancing. Those are the next big steps.The rocker board is by its design less unstable than a board with just one ball (wobble board). This wooden rocker board just gives you one plane of instability at a time. It does not have a 360 degree rotation which is far more challenging. Some sites say that a rocker board (such as the one I'm reviewing) is for beginners. Whatever. Bottom line: I'm not breaking my neck and I'm improving my balance.I love this thing!!

Well made and strong. The surface is slip resistent and the base is well balanced and strong, heavy duty strong.My doctor told me I need to work with my core to help my lower back. My physical therapiest helps me during the treatment but I need to work on my core at home. I bought this so I could use it while watching TV. It is hard at the beginning but after a few minutes I felt it was working on my core. Of course it requries some balance skills and right posture. Highly recommend this item for "lazy" people like me.

We bought this balance board for my wife after her hip replacement surgery. Her therapist had her use one in therapy, so we thought it would be good to add it to her daily exercise regime. The board arrived on time and well packed to protect it from damage. My wife started using it immediately. It is strong and secure. I don’t have to worry about it breaking in the middle of one of her exercises, so I am happy. It is easy for her to use and helps her recuperate faster, so she is happy.I can strongly recommend this balance board.

Having used a similar product at my Physical Therapist's office, I decided to purchase a balance board for use at home.I looked at a number of different ones including the one manufactured by a very well known competitor that I have used at my PT office. The "Professional Wooden Balance Board, Rocker Board" from StrongTek looked good and was considerably less expensive than the others that are available, particularly the one manufactured by a very well known competitor. So, I decided to try one.I'm very glad that I did and it has met all of my expectations. It is well built and, in fact, has a couple of features that make it, functionally, superior to ones that I have used in the past. All of that and less expensive too!!!

Like what I see so far. It was packaged nicely. The board is built very solid, nice finish throughout, not made with cheap materials. Tried with it several times already, and works great. The board holds strong, supports my weight without any problem, non-slip surface works well. The base rolls smoothly as well.

This product did exactly what it says it is. It is reasonably priced and it is one of the same ones my physiotherapist uses. I had no problems with it and I use it on Carpet as an added safety measure....but I can easily use it on uncarpeted floor.

This board is well made. However, the board is supposed to help you in improving your balance in two directions - side to side, and back to front. The problem is that the board, when used in the back to front direction, is narrow and placing your feet appropriately is not an easy task. I am surprised that the company does not have a square board so feet can be place apart in both directions..

Recent hip replacement from too many years of football required rehabilitation and this was one of the tools utilized so now I have one at home. It is well-made, good and thoughtful construction. Pay attention, however, to the weight restriction and do not exceed.

When the product first arrived I wondered whether it would be wobbly enough but was pleased to find that it works exactly as expected. I can't find another board that comes anywhere near as suitable for a domestic situation. I find the ball-type ones to be almost suicidal for me and I do have a good sense of balance. It is better than the one that I previously used at the gym. Maintaining a good sense of balance is so important as you get older. I think that my Alexander teacher will be interested in deploying it in our lessons when we can start again.

I ordered this because it was wooden rather than plastic, it's a nice piece of kit to have lying around the house. My son and his wife (in their 30s) found this very easy to balance on but I find it more than challenging and hope it will improve my balance if I use it regularly. There is a good video on the company website that shows how to use it, together with further exercises you can attempt.

I work from home and and am at my desk for up to 10 hours a day. With little time to exercise I invested in a standing desk adapter and this is a brilliant addition, love it!I very quickly adapted to standing in it and can do so for hours on end.My hubby decided to try it a was equally smitten so I purchased another.It’s very sturdy and comes ready assessabled.Highly recommend.

Well made balance board. Sturdy, non slip top. Smooth edges. Can really feel it working the legs and core after just few minutes

Very sturdy, nice wood, good design for my needs
