Question twist boards any good?

I was just cruising through Amazon and saw twist boards in the fitness section. They are disks that I you get on and twist. Has anyone tried one? Are they hard on your knees since they twist? I am looking for anything to get me moving and doesn't take up space. I just bought a little step thing and I like that a lot. But twisting would be new to me.
Thanks for your help,
Centikel

I don't think twisting is ever a good thing..we are meant to go side to side... but twisting can really do a job on the back.

Can you do ome bodyweight type of movements??

Twisting in itself is fine, but I don't know how effective the twist board will be.
