Multi Balloons Quick & Easy Refill Kit

Bunch of Balloons 555 Refill Quick & Easy KitReceived the balloons quickly, the packaging was fine. Since these are meant to be water balloons, they are smaller than standard balloons. Unfortunately, I hadn't yet received my Bunch oh Balloons Kit (from a different seller) to use these with. I decided to make the most of things and see whether I could fill them manually. Before trying with water, I tried blowing one up just to see if they would hold up. The balloon blew up just like a standard round balloon. It wasn't hard to blow up like those long, skinny clown balloons used to make balloon animals. I blew up a few extras for the kids to play with while I was building a small arsenal of water balloons. To fill the balloons, I removed the wide part of my kitchen faucet that holds the screen. I stretched the mouth of the balloon over the hole, turned the water on to fill, turned water off, slipped balloon off of the faucet & tied. After awhile, and a couple times when I didn't pinch the top fast enough and got a face spray, my husband suggested using a funnel. That sounded strange to me, but it worked when I pressed the funnel onto the faucet with the balloon mouth slipped onto the bottom of the funnel. It saved me a few face splashes. I filled enough balloons to fill up about 1/2 of a huge cooler. It wasn't hard, but it was time consuming. I didn't come across any defective balloons at all. Some didn't even break the first time they fell on the ground. The kids played lots of games because I was trying to have the balloons last as long as possible. Their favorite game was a version of "catch". Each pair of children holds a towel, pillowcase, etc. taught between them. Place a filled balloon on one team's towel and see if they can toss it to the other team, who catch it with their towel. Then they toss it back, and so on. It was fun to watch and they were giggling like crazy. MY favorite game was "whoever picks up the most balloon pieces wins!" ;) So, this review is only for the balloons themselves and it is definitely a thumbs up! NOTE: Inside the balloon bag there is a small bag of black bands and a stick tool for use with the Bunches. I did have to dig a bit to find the stick, but it was there. I'll try to add to my review when I have actually used these as refills instead of just using them. Have fun!

This product worked out decently, once the balloons were back on the sticks. It was a fairly painful process to put the balloons back on the sticks though. We were using this at a birthday party, and we had one person using this and one person filling up balloons the old fashioned way, and at the end of the day, filling up the balloons the old fashioned way was just as fast, if not faster. I don't think that I would recommend this, unless you have time, and a lot of patience.

These balloons were not as fun and easy as I thought they would be. When filling only about half of them filled and they didnt seem to fill all the way because when thrown they wouldnt pop... we would have to squeeze them to get them to pop. Some were fine and popped normally but not very many. I would rather fill balloons by hand and know they will work properly than to waste money on balloons that dont fill or burst.

ugh what a pain, if you feel like sitting around for hours doing this then it is the product for you. I lasted about 5 minutes before I threw it in the garbage. It would be easier to just fill regular water balloons. Now maybe there is a trick I am missing but to me this was not easy.

Perfect

Awesome ! The tool works great, I had no problem at all using it. I posted a video on youtube of me using the tool and filling up the balloons with water to see if they would seal!

Great

To time consuming to put on sticks
