Why won't the ball inflate?

make sure all seals are tight and the hose is connected properly to pump and fill tip. worse comes to worse use a bike pump or air mattress pump. be careful with the last idea. have some one hold a yard stick next to bosu while inflating and when good height have pin ready to go in as you pull hose

Make sure the pin is completely inserted in hole of ball. Check the Bosu edges itself to make sure there are no leaks or defects.

Since the question I have received sounds like the first part of the question is missing. I will respond this way. You will need to have a pump to inflate and maintain the inflation of your ball. The one you shared as being the one you used looks more than fine for the task.

Well, I have had mine for months now and would suggest you check if it is has been inflated to the recommended measurement. If your ball has been inflated to the correct measurement, then you should not have the ball slipping through the hole as my mister weighs more than you do and he doesn't have a problem when he sits on this chair. That said, you might have a problem with maintaining the inflation, so when you inflate it take note of the measurement and re-check it in a few days. If you find it isn't a problem to maintain the balls inflation, try inflating the ball to maybe another inch larger as the suggested measurement is not "written in stone." Also, I saw on a previous answer that the back rest doesn't work?? I would love to know what that comment is about as the "back rest" is not meant for you to rest your back upon-- it was never meant to bear any significant amount of weight. It's there pretty much to make sure the ball doesn't roll off the ring.

Not sure if you might have same problem but looked like my wedge pillow had a piece of plastic blocking the hole down inside the stem where you insert the pump. I poked it with a small knitting needle and worked fine after that. The pillow takes some effort to inflate but don't bother to fully inflate. I found about half inflation is most comfortable.

Loosen the valve and do nothing else. It will self-inflate. If you want it to be even fuller, you can blow into the opened valve. When it inflated to your liking, close the valve. To deflate, open the valve and roll it up tightly. Then close the valve to keep it deflated. I carry mine in my purse rolled up and deflated. It takes up little room this way.

Hello and thank you for contacting Dazadi.com. The ball does come fully inflated. Please let us know if you have any other questions!

I don't think it is suppose to inflate unless it get submerged. Since I received mine we have not had a search and rescue/recovery in any type of weather so I have not worn mine yet.

You have to squeeze the tip while blowing into it. We did it and it stayed inflated all day and still is.

I am in the same boat. Mine came a bit inflated but not enough to use. Trying to inflate with pump (not provided) I don't feel much progress is happening.

Hi: You really don't need a pump to inflate this ball. I blew it up with the little stick that comes with it and my mouth. I do this once in a while because the ball loses a bit of air and gets soft; so I just insert the little stick and blow through my mouth. It's really simple. I hope this helped!!.

The colored notches around the pool have places for inflation. Those are the only areas that inflate the bottom does not. The top inflates from the upper level of color.

Be sure to pull the inflation stem all the way out to inflate otherwise you're wasting your breath. (I'm assuming that you can't get any air into it.)

You have to squeeze the tube to open the valve while inflating. Read the instruction card.

You are missing a plug. It comes with two. A hand held air pump will inflate it.

Probably due to the cycle time. If you shut it off and let it cool down a little while inflating it should be fine.

I truly had no trouble inflating mine...just opened the valve and blew into it. If & WHEN you do get it operationaldon't inflate it until it's taut. Leave it a bit limp. We have gotten 2 summers out of our 6, and they're still going into the pool again this summer. Good luck! If it's still not inflating, send it back...I'm sure the seller will want to know it's not working.

As I recall - and it's been awhile since I purchased it - the ball was partially/mostly inflated. I'm virtually certain it wasn't flat. You'll need to pump in some air from time to time to keep it up to snuff.
