I have purchased the Junior Stomp Rocket and the Ultra Stomp Rocket from D & L before and have been very satisfied with the products. I needed a gift for a nephew turning 13 and knew he loved science and the outdoors so I knew the Super High Performance Rocket would make a good gift for him. He loved it, he took it with all his friends to the park and they all played with it for over an hour. When they returned they were all so excited about how high the rocket actually went. The other kids were asking where they could get one. Great rocket...great gift.

It was a lot of fun. even the little one, 3 years old, was able to launch it by jumping and landing on it with his rear end. We could not stop laughing. The older kids and the parents did much better . It flies very high and the kids burn a lot of enrgy running and catching it when it falls. It comes with 6 rockets. I am sorry I bought 3 extra rockets for additional 7-8 dollars. I could have bought for them another set for a little bit more and get 6 additional rockets. It would have been a better choise.

I am going to get another Stomp Rockets for my other set of grand children. This time I am going to get 2 sets and mail it to them. Have fun!

This thing is a ton of fun. My 4 and 2 year olds love this thing. The 4 year old is heavy enough to make the rocket go about 20 feet up. What they really like is to load the rocket and let dad launch the thing about 100+ feet in the air, then retreive it and reload. Simple design, plenty of spare rockets, durable, cheap, and hours of entertainment for the kids.

We received the original Stomp Rocket as a gift and my then 3 year old son loved it. When ever you went to a park all the other kids would come around and want to play with it. For my sons 5th birthday I decided to try the Ultra Stomp Rocket Refills (Large Red Bulbs on tip DO NOT BUY THOSE) and I ordered the Super High Performance Stomp Rocket. Even though the package says it is for 16 years plus, my just turned 5, son was able to launch these rockets 100-150 feet when they were angled and he landed on it properly. Even my 3 year old daughter could send these a decent distance and I could send them several hundred feet. The kids love to run after the rockets or to stand way far away as I launch the rockets and they would then bring them back to me. Great toy for tiring out the kids as they run around the park picking up the rockets. I would use these at a park or some other open space and not in a small backyard as they will end up far away. Adults and kids will both really enjoy these.

I bought this for ALL four of my nephews (ages 3 to 7) and my son (3). I have no nieces, don't think I'm sexist. It is a blast, literally. Everyone had fun aiming it, stomping, and seeing how far it would go. Easy to see how it could be misused (hide the cat and dog and little siblings) but with some parent supervision it is great even for the little people. Ours has survived being left outside and other abuse. The only real casualty has been the stickers... just skip them.

My son and his cousins had a great time playing with this at a family get-together. However, it is not durable at all. We just chucked out the little stand that holds the launcher. It didn't stay together and wasn't necessary. They ended up just holding the tube to direct the rockets. The rockets themselves didn't hold up that well either. But, you'll lose most of them anyway because it shoots so far. It is still a favorite toy, so I'll just replace the rockets as needed. All said, for this price, well worth it, but don't expect something highly durable.

These are a lot of fun for my son and neighbors... ages 7 - 11.

The box says something like for ages 18. That's strange.

You need to be careful not to step on the rockets, and they are tubes and will become oval shape and no longer slide nicely on the launch tube.

Also, I found the fins didn't hold up very well. I needed to tape some.

My 5 year old son and I (Dad) took this to the park, and my son (43 lbs.) go it to go 86 feet horizontally when it was angled low (we made sure there were no people in sight in any direction when doing this). He jumped as high as he could, and stomped on it with both feet landing on his heels. I was able to get it to go straight up basically out of sight (I'm about 190 lbs.), and we could see it only when it was well on it's way back down, so we're guessing it went at least a couple hundred feet up. One fin fell off of one of the rockets, but we think we can glue it. For the price, it really works well, and we had no problems with any of the other rockets (6 are included). We only shot it on grass, which probably helped - it goes so high, I don't think it would last landing on concrete. Make sure you have an area with a lot of room, and no other people around, since the rockets do come straight down pretty fast, and you wouldn't want anyone to get hit by one.

does what its advertised to do...and alot cheaper and safer then getting a real one you have to light and get special fireworks for to get them to fly...went about 150 feet in the air...my son and i laughed and had so much fun with this...

We went to the park two days after Christmas and all the kids played it. The ages ranged from 4 to 13 and they had a blast trying to outdo each others height. It was a great time.
