It has nothing to envy from more expensive products. It just requires a little attention before purchasing, to compare the sizes. This particular one is quite large and may not be suitable for a home gym or for someone who wants to transport it frequently. The addition of the two handle bands is very useful. Also, I should mention that the packaging does not include a pump for inflation. Final conclusion: if it suits you, you will save around 70 euros instead of buying the original Bosu, where you pay for the brand name.
