Does this arrive inflated or deflated?

No, it was delivered with perfect condition. My son loved this ball. Just I used air pump to inflate the ball sometimes.

Mine is still inflated so for exact dimensions deflated you'd needed to call company. They are very helpful. Amazon might tell u dimensions of the large box it comes in deflated. It is close to 3' by 4' deflated as the rubber is very thick and heavy.

They are deflated and packaged tightly when they arrive. I forget the exact dimensions, but they looked really small the way they were packaged. Yet, they did inflate to 12. I used a mattress pump to quickly inflate them.

Sorry, I can't answer that as I have worn it (very comfortable) but haven't had to inflate it. Speculating however, YES!

Jan 10, 2014: Ours arrived today, TOTALLY UNINFLATED and fully wrapped in plastic that was the size of the uninflated ball. Nowhere in the description does it say it won't be inflated.Unacceptable.

The balls are inflated when we get them in stock.You can always deflate the ball when you receive it

No it doesn't. It will need to be inflated once it arrives. Nice heavy material makes it a little hard to blow up though. I used an air compressor to fill ours.

It needs to be inflated with helium. You receive it flat, you need to add air.

No. We inflated (repeatedly) with a foot pump. It's also smaller than it looks.

Mine stays inflated with no problem. Check to make sure the plastic "plug" that came with it is pushed in all the way.

When this is shipped, the mattress is compressed by removing air from the packaging. I found it quickly resumed its shape once it was opened and mattress was unfolded.

This one came deflated but possibly due to small leak. It has never held air more than a few days. We threw it away and purchased a regular size 3 Wilson for $10. Came inflated a month ago and has remains that way. If it was good enough for Tom hanks in cast away, it works for us:)

Mine was shipped partially deflated, so you'll want to make sure you have a way to pump it up.

June, I personally have never had to deflate it but I can't foresee that as any problem. Just pull the plug and let it deflate. Inflating it was simple! Hope this helps. P.S.This is still a HUGE favourite with my granddaughter. Can say enough good about this product!

The ball was shipped to me deflated in a white mailer bag. I didn't know what it was until I opened the bag because I assumed it would come in a square box. Once I inflated it it looked fine!

I believe it just came packed in the box...it's not inflated when you get it but it comes with a device to help you inflat it which is super easy :)
