Comments about HearthSong Incred-a-ball:

Very time consuming to inflate and some of the areas would not stay inflated. It is not studry enough for kids to play in. Would not roll like others that my grandchildren have played in. NOT WORTH THE MONEY!!! Very dissapointing.

THIS BALL IS A WONDERFUL IDEA AND WE WERE SOOOOOO EXCITED TO GET IT FOR OUR TWO CHILDREN (AGES 8 & 3)---this was a santa present following several large snowstorms so it was PERFECT for a Christmas morning adventure! Each bubble is blown up seperate so assemby is no problem---and it looks exactly like it should--HUGE and FUN! HOWEVER, even in several feet of snow and only allowing our children in the ball one at a time, etc (we were conscious!)--the ball is now sitting in our yard half deflated because SEVERAL of the bubbles deflated--not sure on what--but it's a HUGE waste of money sitting in my yard collecting rain and debris!!!!! I LOVE Hearthsong products and will continue to purchase from them, but this was undoubtedly the worst purchase EVER!

I bought this ball as a group gift for my grandchildren. and they loved it. There are 7 of them and each one got an initial turn of about 5 minutes each. Sadly, we found it was necessary to reinflate all but a few cells every other turn. Left alone for the same amount of time it went completely flat except for about 4 cells. We only used it on the grass. This was a huge and expensive flop and we were all disappointed

This is a great product. The kids just loved playing with it. Big enough for just about anyone to fit into. My grandkids played with it on Christmas Day and loved it. Would work well on snow or grass. The larger you are, the harder it is to keep rolling but still lots of fun.

One drawback. This thing is huge! Your best bet to inflate it is to use a power compressor. Using the air pump that is sold for it would take all day to inflate the ball.

This may be the best toy I have ever bought! Kids can roll it and go inside. Neighbors stop to look and play. Occasionally it gets a hole, but these have been easily fixed with the patch kit. It took me an hour to inflate the cells using Hearthsong's air pump. Don't even think you can blow this up without that.

I was concerned when I read some reviews about the ball that stated that the seams were not strong. Our kids have been using it for almost a month, and it seems to be holding up well!

This ball is the coolest! My 6 and 3 year old love it and have so many different things they do with it! Both of them can fit in it together and they use it as a clubhouse as well! One of the seams started to tear a bit and HearthSong quickly replaced the ball for me without question!

My chidlren took turns rolling inside the Incrediball, and loved it--we supervised their playtime to ensure the toy would not be misused. However, two segments began leaking within the first three days of use, and within one week, several segments were separating from each other around both openings.

Service and delivery comments:

Customer service was impeccable! A return label was sent to me within several days of my phone call, and a new Incrediball arrived within the week, although Hearth Song had not yet received my return. We are hoping the replacement ball will last, as our children really enjoyed it!

Best used in a shady yard, when it is hot outside. We store under the deck, to keep it cool, and use in our shady backyard. But all the neighborhood kids love it!

Comments about HearthSong Incred-a-ball:

Its big and durable enough to climb inside. But its too big for indoor use, its hot inside the ball when played with in the sun, and it really does not roll well when a child is in the ball. And that's what the kids wanted to do with it. Smaller kids can fall into one of the two openings and hit their body against the ground.

My kids like to get inside with their friends like a little club house.

Comments about HearthSong Incred-a-ball:

My son used the compressor to blow up the incred-a-ball and they all (ages 5-14) played in the yard for hours.

Comments about HearthSong Incred-a-ball:

We wanted to roll around the yard one child at a time ages 6 and 8. Within a day the seams at the opening broke. It also take forever to inflate.

Comments about HearthSong Incred-a-ball:

This is not something a 11 year old can blow up by themselves. It has many (30 or so) separate sections to blow up. The nozzles are difficult to open and shut. Even with a pump it takes about 1 hour to blow up.

Comments about HearthSong Incred-a-ball:

We spent more hours inflating this ball than playing with it, because it ripped and leaked within a couple hours of playing in it. The very brief time it was not torn, it was enormously fun. However, within minutes, several cells tore at the seems, other cells began deflating, rendering it useless. You must blow up each cell, which took us several hours. When it was ready for play, we only used it on soft grass. Three small, young girls (not rough housers) were playing with this. All supervised play--no wild behavior. Too bad the ball didn't last. It's so fun that we wish we could give it a good review, but, unfortunately, the GBOP is not worth the trouble or money. We figured our GBOP costs us about a dollar per minute of play.

Limit 1 child inside at a time!!
Don't be too rough w/ this item, it pops easily.

Comments about HearthSong Incred-a-ball:

Many cells to inflate.
Big enough to roll in.

Sections have popped. Would love to exchange it, but cant find the return slip. Never taken it outside and has only been on carpeting.
