Product Durability

Pros:

  • "They are well made and will not scratch your floor or furniture."
  • "So far very durable considering how hard my kids have been kicking it. No marks on my white baseboards..no hurt toes because the bottom outside is styrofoam."
  • "Kids have been rough with them and they hold up well."
  • "We had two to begin with that we keep in the dining room and kitchen area where we have wood floors. They're were kicked around a lot but they're pretty durable."
  • "I didn't think they looked too robust at first, but they have lasted remarkably well with two children using them at the same time in a relatively small space."
  • "Kept my nieces entertained during their Christmas visit this past year. Absolutely a good value! From 3 years old to adults will love this to play indoors. Very durable, doesn't just flip over like other toys."
  • "This thing can take a pretty decent beating and actually glides across the floor (think air hockey)."

Cons:

  • "The plastic bursted all over."
  • "The bumpers broke on day one as they are fastened with thin plastic pins…something your kicking with your feet."
  • "The battery compartment lock broke after 1 kick and the batteries kept falling out."
  • "The first one cracked and would not slide anymore."
  • "A piece of the bottom plastic rim broke off and it would not glide."
  • "The bottoms of the hover balls started chipping off within the first use."
  • "Both were broken. Very cheaply made and not at all durable."

Customer Service

Pros:

  • "I contacted the company, and they are sending me a new one."
  • "After quite a search I did find a number to call. However, they DID call me back and they sent me another 2 pack and the shipping was super fast."
  • "Edit: seller contacted me and replaced the defective item. Grandsons have enjoyed playing with the balls."
  • "Contacted customer service and they sent new replacements at no cost to me."
  • "This is a fun game and easy to assemble. I was missing one part of the hockey stick and I called customer service and they were amazing."

Cons:

  • "I sent a message through Amazon explaining what occurred and that I wanted to exchange the defective one for a new one and received no response."
  • "Now my return window is closed and I can't seem to find a way to even contact Loose Moose."
  • "Let Loose Moose said it was Amazon's job to respond and Amazon said it was Let Loose Moose's."
  • "Product support does not exist, although they have a website and phone number that offers no support."
  • "We don’t want to return it because it’s a two pack and it’s a Christmas gift. We were hoping for a replacement for the one that doesn’t work but it’s impossible to reach the company."

Battery and Safety Issues

Pros:

  • "3,5,8 year old children loved the toy. Used it to play hockey. Long lasting battery. Foam sides held up well and did not mare walls or moldings."
  • "So far the battery life is pretty good, it's not loud at all. Yes, you can hear it but it's tolerable."

Cons:

  • "The batteries kept coming loose so it kept shutting off. All cheaply produced plastic."
  • "The battery cover fell off as the compartment is not secured with a screw as it should be per CPSC recommendations."
  • "The batteries became extremely hot, had a burning odor, and would not turn on - clearly wired wrong and not safe."
  • "In less than a month one of them started leaking battery acid."
  • "The side of ball was staying VERY WARM for some reason, so I began touching the connections and there was a very little connector covered with a plastic rubber film that I touched and it burned the heck out of my finger and the plastic melted to my finger."
  • "We started smelling burning. The fans cut off and were smoking."
  • "After our grandson played with this for ten minutes we started to smell something burning. The battery cover fell off as the compartment is not secured with a screw as it should be per CPSC recommendations. It was so hot that one of the batteries had started to melt."

Entertainment Value

Pros:

  • "Super fun at night because they light up."
  • "The lights are bright and colorful, which adds to the excitement for kids."
  • "The LED lights inside these soccer balls make the game more visually engaging."
  • "The lights also keep your attention."
  • "The flashing lights are also very nifty."
  • "Super exciting game and you can play with your whole family!"
  • "Great product. Kids love this."

Cons:

  • "Very disappointed."
  • "This was a pure waste of money."
  • "I wouldn’t buy this again, was a waste of money."

  • "Don't waste your money!"
  • "They were fun while they lasted but don't waste your money."
  • "Don't waste your money!"
