Big City Bargains Jumbo Smile Face Playground Ball Smiley Face - 2 Pack

I was going to buy more in different colors and am glad I did not! I purchased these for twins for their birthdays and one ball is thin and doesn't bounce right and the other is 1/2 the size, is thicker and the bounce is perfect. The larger one has the thickness of a beach ball and the smaller one has the thickness of a basketball/playground ball. Hard to explain to one twin why the other's ball is bigger :( Kind of put a damper on the birthday present!

This is a very sturdy ball. It is very much like the type of kick ball used in elementary schools. The price is excellent because of it being a 2 pack. The only reason I did not give it a 5 was the description was misleading in that it made me think an air pump was included.

I purchased these balls for our exercise group here at the nursing home we exercise and then through and hit the balls around to each other and all of the others in my group just love them and let me tell you they take a real beating, they get kicked, hit into the ceiling fan, and into all kinds of stuff in the dining room. The Physical Therapy department also uses them in many different ways to help the residents get there therapy. I am a resident here and I bought them because our other two balls we had were old and they popped.

The ad said 18 inch diameter. My order said 18 inch diameter. Both balls sent are only 14 inch! Same yellow smiley face, but only 14 inch! They are ok quality for perhaps a play room or volleyball at a nursing home, but they are less sturdy than the red playground kickballs that have been around forever.

The ball is an odd shape when it's blown up to size - almost like an egg (certainly not round) - which causes it to bounce off to one side. I would return - but I neglected to read the fine print that I would need to pay the shipping charges ($7+) so it's not worth it. It's a faulty ball and for the price I would definitely not purchase again.

Somewhat difficult to inflate with a pump. Material is robust-- has taken plenty of abuse from my kids and I, and seems built to last. No odd smells emanate from it either.

The ball is definitely not 18 inches. I buy the 14in balls at walmart and they are much bigger. Balk is thick rubber though so it shouldnt pop easily out get a hole quick

My kids love these balls.
