Review on 🎈 100 pcs Multicolored Metallic Latex 260Q Balloons for Twisting Animals, Flowers, Decor, Birthday, Wedding, Engagement, Anniversary, Festival, Picnic, or any Friends & Family Party by Heidi Willis

Firstly, although the manufacturer is listed as Vumsum, the trade name of these balls is Shuaian. I don't care as I knew I would get cheap balloons from China but it's worth pointing out the real brand they sell there. I have fairly even color distribution; actual numbers: 16 pink, 13 purple, 14 blue, 20 green, 19 gold, and 18 silver. which in fact accounts for up to 100 balloons. Obviously your mileage may vary, but your choice of color is unlikely to bias. Finally, something about the quality of the balloons themselves! They are. OK. The first thing you will notice is that some of them have some kind of residue, most visible on the blue ones. However, a closer look reveals that this is just the natural color of the latex, revealed by exposure to the equipment used to make the balloons. This is a sign that these balloons are pretty cheap, but then again, these issues only affect the jets and shafts, so they shouldn't affect the lifespan of the latex much. Especially considering how thick this latex is. The reviews aren't kidding when they say these things are hard to blast. Maybe it's the rough machines, maybe because the pigments used weaken the thinner latex, but these are by far the thickest curling balloons I've seen. Even I, a person who regularly inflates two-centimeter fragments with my mouth without a nozzle and two balloons at a time, hardly took any air into them. If you are a professional balloon spinner you will undoubtedly do so with a double-acting pump, which shouldn't be a problem. But if you're a pro, you probably aren't thinking about buying them anyway. Qualatex Chrome, the line of products they copy, costs twice as much; However, it may be worth just using a brand that you are familiar with. They roll up very easily. Again, they are VERY thick, but there are fewer problems with curling than with inflation. One thing to keep in mind is how easily twisting will force air into the tail. This robot was supposed to have a smaller head and a longer antenna, but that just kind of came to my mind. On the other hand, thicker latex alternates exceptionally well; about seventy hours later, the robot's arms are holding firm, although it's slightly smaller overall. They don't take Sharpie as well as the big brands. So if you tend to draw a lot, be aware that the ink dries in a few seconds. The biggest problem with curls is the residue you get from balloons. After just a few minutes of counting and separating by color, I felt. something on my hands. It's probably less noticeable if you keep them fully inflated, but for that alone I would recommend not using them in a situation where you're rolling balloons for an extended period of time. They seem fine for things that you need to prep ahead of time (which honestly seems to be the purpose of metal balloons), but in the meantime you could just spend the extra money and get the Qualatex or Betalatex equivalents. .
