Review on WALIKI Toys Kids Hopping Ball With Handles - Bouncy Ball For Sit & Bounce Fun - Hippity Hop Ball, Kangaroo Bouncer, Jumping Ball - Pump Included - Red - Ages 3-6 (18"/45CM) by Stephen Chowdary

Revainrating 3 out of 5

BEWARE - Size listed is not what you get

I purchased 2 of these balls; this one and a green one (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00P2WG7G2/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1) for my grandsons. Both said in the initial description that they are 20 inch balls and appropriate for ages 7-9. The green ball is a 20 inch, but this red ball is not. It is an 18 inch ball, which is much smaller in size. It looks like whoever writes the intro for the product just copied and pasted the description for the balls and didn't bother to change the size/age on this one. As I now scroll down I can see that in the Product Dimensions is lists this ball as recommended for ages 36mos-6 years vs the green one being for ages 7-9 years. You really don't know what size you're ordering with this company. Really confusing and disappointing, because they actually make a nice bouncy ball and this is why I only gave it 3 stars vs 5. Lucky for me, one grandson is a year younger and he agreed to take the red ball, though he had requested the green color when I bought them. I will probably end up buying him another ball next year, as he'll quickly outgrow this 18inch ball, which is why I wanted 2 20inch balls in the first place.Additionally when the order came, the green one had a pump as advertised. I assumed that the red one came with a pump too, since they are both Waliki balls. Nope this red ball does not have a pump, so have a plan in place for blowing this up if you buy it.

Pros
  • SAFE & DURABLE: The Jumping Ball is safety tested to US safety & phthalates standards
Cons
  • May not be suitable for children with certain medical conditions
