Type of review

My four year old loves this. Was recommended to us by a friend that is an occupational therapist. Its a tad bit big for her to climb on, but she does climb on and manages to hop around it relatively well. Her little neighbor friend comes by to play and we have to keep it away from him because he's much shorter than our 4 year old and we fear he'll fall right off of it trying to climb on. Nonetheless we really like it and our 4 year old is happy with it.

Pros
  • Can be used for physical education classes and recreational programs
Cons
  • Could be seen as a novelty item rather than a legitimate therapy tool

Very good purchase for my opinion

I purchased 2 of these for my sons and they love them very durable. I have had them for about 3 months and absolute no problem. It really helps my son calm down to bounce on them. My only complaints is it seems as 1 is bigger than the other. It doesn’t matter to the boys so I’m not that concerned

Pros
  • Can be used to develop social skills and build relationships with others
Cons
  • Could be seen as a waste of money by some users

Buy this one! in my review

I’ve had this ball for over two years and the kids still love it and play with it frequently! We’ve had several similar balls gifted to them and this is the only one still holding up perfectly! It’s super durable! My 7 and 3 year old have literally given it a beating and it hasn’t even lost any air! It’s a perfect size as well. a little on the smaller size but was great especially when my three year old was smaller because he could hold onto it and bounce without falling off and now they just…

Pros
  • JBA-Red-28
Cons
  • Not suitable for use by individuals with respiratory issues

Good value - my new review

Arrived quickly: material feels sturdy; came with hand pump to inflate, which takes a little effort, but offered much fun at our church family fun night; time will tell how durable, but looking forward to future fun!

Pros
  • Promotes balance and coordination skills
Cons
  • Could be seen as immature or inappropriate for some users

Too thin for outdoor us possibly

Not the same material as the old "dodge ball/four square” material. It’s more of a thin rubber that punctures after hitting its first rock or mildly sharp object. Worth the price? I mean it is only $14 and toddler seems to enjoy it. We’ll see how it lasts when we take it outside vs basement floor.

Pros
  • The bright red color is engaging and visually appealing
Cons
  • May not be effective in meeting specific therapy or exercise needs

Fun work out for my opinion

My grandkids love these things. They chase each around the house and around the neighborhood. I get them the adult sizes because they are in Jr high and high school. I thought it would be a fun way for them to get a work out to replace PE. They are currently doing school online from home do to covid. This is a great energy outlet for them.

Pros
  • Can be used to improve gross and fine motor skills
Cons
  • May not provide enough stimulation for individuals with special needs

great for indoor activities!

I have bought this Bouncy ball for 5 of my grandchildren. Ranging from the Bouncy Cow, to a small ball, a medium sized Ball and Large Ball. They love them all! After several months, they still hop on them everyday. Especially on those days when they can't get outside. Great for burning off energy. I will probably buy it again for another grandchild whose birthday is coming up- It's a great alternative to getting an expensive trampoline.

Pros
  • My daughter loves this! Got us through 2020! She still bounces on it everyday!
Cons
  • May be difficult to control

It was great for indoor use until it exploded.

My teenage son has high-functioning Autism so I bought this hopper for him to use indoors to save what's left of our living room furniture. With his sensory issues, he loves to bounce and clap. We don't have room for a trampoline in or outside of our house, so this seemed like a great solution for him to bounce indoors. I'd already been through like 3 other exercise balls so I thought something made for bouncing and for adults ages 16-101 would be perfect for my teenage 6ft. tall son. It…

Pros
  • WALIKI
Cons
  • May cause nausea or dizziness in some users

Like being a kid again

This is such a fun toy. My 4 kids (ages 3-10) and myself (200Lbs) have used it frequently in our living room and outside in our backyard on the grass. It’s held up great and wears the kids out quickly (bonus!). It doesn’t tear up our yard and I’ll definitely be buying one or two more so "turns” can be given more frequently between the kids. So much fun!

Pros
  • Helps improve core strength and stability
Cons
  • May not provide enough challenge for advanced users

Hippity Hop of today isn’t the same as yesteryear

I bought this adult size hippity hop thinking it would be like the ones from the 70s it’s not. The tool included isn’t the easiest to inflate. The ball felt like it was going to fly out from underneath you. I should of returned it but didn’t. I learned the small child size might work but for young adults it just isn’t sturdy. A waste of money.

Pros
  • Good deal
Cons
  • May cause injury if not used properly

The best toys are timeless

watching my nephew bounce all over the house and laughing on his new Christmas toy was priceless. He LOVED it. If it holds up, Uncle Jason for the Christmas gift win!

Pros
  • Good price for the quality & allot of fun .
Cons
  • Can be difficult to inflate without a pump

Got a Hole in it on day 31

This is our third ball. Our youngest son loves them. The first one lasted for a long time but the second popped after a few months and the one we have now got a hole in it the day after the 30 day return policy. These balls aren’t that cheap to only last 30 days. This is the last one we buy at least from this company.

Pros
  • Perfect for a fun afternoon workout routine
Cons
  • May not provide enough exercise or stimulation for some users

Fun for little ones and worth the price.

My 3 year old loves this ball and uses it frequently to relieve excess energy. It looks so fun, I have thought about getting myself one! It was easy to inflate and comes with an extra plug and the pump. Worth the price!

Pros
  • I didn’t dislike anything except no one would play with her so BUY 2. Adults can jump as well.
Cons
  • Not recommended for use on hard or uneven surfaces

Great, Sturdy Hop Ball!

This is a quality hop ball and the best gift I've ever given to my daughter. She was 7 when she first received it and it was a great fit for her size (she's average or a little taller for her age). It would have lasted longer than the almost 1 year that we had it, but she decided to stick a pin in it. So, picked up another one, great price and back to bouncing business. Second ball is just as sturdy as the first and it's used inside and outside. If you need a hop ball for a 7-12 year old (older

Pros
  • Gave it for a birthday present. The 4, 4.5 and 5.5 year olds did well on it.
Cons
  • May be intimidating for some users

Disappointed best in my review

When the package arrived it did not include a pump. Now I’m trying to find a pump with a nozzle that will be compatible with the toy and I don’t know what kind to buy.

Pros
  • WALIKI TOYS: Since 2005 smart parents trust our glorious bouncing toys that MAKE EXERCISE FUN
Cons
  • May be uncomfortable for users with back or joint pain

Blast some music and hop your way into your summer clothes.

Well, they don't quite make these the way they used to, but they are still a lot of fun. The one I had as a kid was made of a thicker rubber and felt indestructable. The material of this hoppy ball is much thinner, although it seems to be sturdy. It was much cheaper than buying an exercise ball and yet can be used for the same thing. Unlike the exericise ball, it has a handle so I can get some good aerobic exercise on it too, hop up and down like an ol' crazy lady, and get my heart rate up…

Pros
  • My 4 yr old son loves this! It's durable & very bouncy. What more could you ask for?!
Cons
  • May not be suitable for use by individuals who are overweight or obese

So far so good. my 175# kid hasn’t popped it yet!

My teenage son loves to bounce while he plays video games— we’ve gone through several "burst-proof” yoga balls over the years because he likes to bounce on them too hard and they end up popping after a few weeks; so far he’s bounced like crazy on this ball for about a month and it’s holding up! I like the handle feature because it allows you to hang the ball on a wall hook to keep it out of the way when not in use. 👍🏼

Pros
  • 3 months and up
Cons
  • Requires coordination and balance to use properly

My 9 year old son loves it

My 9 year old son loves it. He is athletic and outdoorsy and so this was a natural fit for him. He hardly gets off the bouncy ball and keep bouncing around on it all the time. One of the best toys that I recently purchased for him.

Pros
  • HUGE: 29 inches in diameter. Adult size Hopping Balls are perfect for "adults," 5’4" to 6’4"
Cons
  • May be too small or too large for some users

Wicked fun! best in my review

Kids love this! Great for winter fun when it is too cold to go outside. It has a firmer, higher bouce than another brand we have. Super fun! It is still pretty new so can't speak to longevity yet.

Pros
  • I used and electric pump with the ball in a kayak hatch for floatation.
Cons
  • I think it got a hole in it within a week or two, and it's a pain to patch.
