What we looked at
Wheel size, construction, surface, intended use, and price.
The verdict
If you want a plain, wide 33cm yoga wheel for stretching and balance at £19.99, the Exerz is the pick. If you would rather pay £25.00 more for a padded 10 inch roller with a spinal channel, the Chirp Wheel+ is the alternative, at £44.99.
A £19.99 33 x 13cm ABS and TPE wheel with a non-slip surface.
