Gold Number 1 Shaped Large Foil Balloon (86cm) 1 Piece - Perfect for Birthday Parties and Special Events

The media could not be loaded.  If you get the helium, then these are so much easier to get and fill than buying in a gift shop and struggling home with them. bought a 1 and a 3 and both have been up for over 48 hours with no leaking and still fully inflated.

Just blow up with straw provided, not hard to blow up like standard balloons. No need for helium as you can pin to wall using tabs

I am in no way affiliated with this product / sellerGiven that this is the cheapest "6" balloon in blue (that I could find) on Amazon, my expectations and hopes were not that high. Especially given some of the mixed reviews.....Delivery:Swift and on time! (which was a saviour for an auntie, who left this gift to the very very last minute! haha)Product:Exactly as described. Colour was true to listing, as was the size.The balloon did not arrive with a straw to assist with inflation. TOP TIP: A straw is definitely needed to assist with inflation. Make sure you have one to hand BEFORE you start inflating (the inflation hole is self adhesive and once sealed, you would break it, if you had to reopen to insert a straw.Once inflated, the "balloon inflation opening" sealed perfectly and didnt need any addition reinforcement such as sellotape etcThere are three "anchor points" to tie string/ribbon to the baloon. I used the two anchor points on the base of the balloon to stablalise it and make sure it didnt float at a funny angle.There is an "anchor point" at the top of the balloon (an extra bit that you can thread a string/ribbon through) - If you dont have helium, you could fill the balloon with air and then hang it from the ceiling)I used my own helium cannister to inflate the balloon - my excited nephew was thrilled that this balloon remained inflated for aggggeeees! (nearly two weeks).Note:Some reviews say they were disapointed when they bought two numbers and one was a different size to the other. I think the review I am thinking about was re: "2" and "6" for a 26th birthday? As I only bought one number, I cant comment on this specific point!TLDR: Exceeded expectation. Prompt delivery. Happy customer!

Bought this and a 0 for my 30th birthday party.For the most part, I loved these balloons. The colour was beautiful and once we figured out how to get them blown up they were great.The only reason I've knocked off a star is that in order to get the helium nozzle into the balloon, you need to use a straw or something similar to open the hole up, they are self-sealing and you have to go through the seal to get the helium in. although the packaging and instructions implies that there is a straw in the pack to do this, there was nothing but the balloon itself in either of my packets. Luckily, my brother had not long been to McDonalds for his lunch so we had a straw lying around to use!Overall, I would definitely buy again, for the price and the colour which can't be beaten but I will definitely make sure there is a straw around when I do!

Easy to fill up - we used helium - and stayed inflated throughout our little one's birthday party (in a big, busy local park).Looked pretty good.When one of the invitees managed to untie it from its weight (top tip - gift wrapped empty wine bottles make good weights that also look decorative), it drifted away to the heavens and in doing so caught the attention of at least two-thirds of the users of the park, both human and canine.

The balloon looks fantastic up. It’s great that it can be put up by air and you don’t need helium. We found it tricky to inflate-in that we needed a very small tube to insert to pump with air. In the end we used a bicycle pump which we held tightly around the entry point so the air wasn’t escaping. It took a while-but self sealed no problem and the result looks really impressive!

Bought for little boys birthday. Easy to inflate (I just blew it up, didn't use helium). I attached it to some regular balloons so it was freestanding. The balloon lasted about 3 weeks! I've finally just put it in the bin and it was still fully inflated.You can slightly see the top of my little boys head in the picture.. this gives you and indication of how big it is.

Good quality, great delivery and value for money. Larger than expected but that just added to the fun. Inflated them with helium...then had a battle fitting the inflated numbers into my car - it was a funny scene. Use a plastic straw to open the valve end and tie tightly with string once inflated. They floated well with helium. One rather bizarre aspect was the receipt of the wrong number in the wrong packet yet we received the correct numbers...just packaged incorrectly!
