"More trouble than it's worth"

My daughter was so excited to use this toy with her friend on the first warm day of spring, but was sorely disappointed. It took nearly three hours to fill each individual chamber with air, and by the time I was done, her friend had to go home. If you leave it outside, it gets very grungy and it is a pain to clean all of the grass and dirt and bug carcasses out of the crevices. And since you can't fit in through a regular door without deflating it a bit, ours wound up mostly outdoors. Some chambers leaked and went flat.

It was somewhat fun, although I was worried that the kids would roll over too hard and break an arm. It's hard for the younger kids to push around. My older daughter did have fun in it during a raging hurricane, sitting inside with a hose running.

Too labor intensive. Looked like a good idea, but in reality was a pain in the neck. 1 star

"Multiple Holes in Minutes"

What a waste of time to air this up. It developed leaks in less time to it took to enter the credit card info to order it. This was the worst gift because it had such a high expectation but turned into the biggest disappointment. The vinyl was so thin that rolling it over normal bermuda grass created holes from small seed pods and sticks. Save your money... 1 star

"Not worth the money"

This toy looks great in the ad but it took us 2 hours to blow the dozen or so chambers up. The instructions were terrible. You have to force too much air into one chamber so that it will go into the next. The chambers do not stay inflated and some don't work at all. My son does still have fun with it but I wouldn't buy it again. 2 stars

"Giga fun"

My kids loved this toy! They can sit in it, roll around in it, climb on it...it's great! I even find them occasionally sitting inside the Giga ball with a book. The only drawback is that it seems to attract a lot of insects (the bright yellow color perhaps???). 4 stars
