Bounce Back Paddle Ball

I am satisfied with my gift

Easy to customize elastic band length. Not too flimsy. Old school fun, no batteries required.

Horrible product. I bought two of these for my 8 year old daughter, who had asked Santa for one to replace her lost one (from a different manufacturer, purchased elsewhere). When she tried to bounce it, she noted that the elastic string was "really long". The strings are about four feet long (much longer than depicted in photos), making it nearly impossible to use as an indoor toy, since it stretches beyond four feet with the elastic. She tried to bounce it lightly, as to not make use of the string. After a few (less than five) bounces, the string detached from the rubber ball. I noted that we must have gotten a dud, thanking my lucky stars that I'd had the foresight to purchase a backup paddle, and she started playing with the second one. This time I counted. Five light bounces later, the string came detached from the ball. There is no way to fix this, since the string is inserted into a tiny pinhole into the rubber ball. I DO NOT recommend this toy. I understand children break toys, but I expect a toy's durability to hold up beyond a minute of playtime.

Fun and good value but string is so long, like 4-5 feet long. I ended up just tying a knot at around 8-12 inches so it’s usable. After that, it worked well.

My five-year-old put a paddleball at the top of her Christmas list this year. I went with this classic version, and she loves it. It would be nice if every year I could get her most eagerly anticipated present for under ten bucks. I can dream.

My daughter really wanted one of these for her birthday and she LOVED it! She's been playing with it often throughout the day. The string is super long and I shortened it, but otherwise it is perfect. It is holding up really well! Thanks so much!

Cheap wood. Not like the old times ones.

It wasn't very sturdy. Cheaply made for the money.

Quick service but string broke within a week.
