I gave this set to my 4 year old son as a gift, he is a balloon enthusiast. He loved it and the excitement generated at the party with children and adults inspired me to get more as future gifts. The pump is very nice, but could be a bit more durable, especially with children in operation. 85 balloons is a lot of balloons, and it will take us a long time to use them all.

We were so excited to get this set. But within the first 20 minutes of use, the pump broke. If you try to pump the air into the balloon, the "push" works but the "pull" sucks all the air back out. So lame. I thought it would be much more durable from the pics and description. Maybe it was just a defective one, I hope others have better luck. I wouldn't buy this again unless I found it in a store where I could easily return it.

The pump was defective and didn't work at all. Fortunately, I had a bike pump I could use. The balloons are poor quality and can only be used a few times before they pop or stretch out so much that they don't fly well. They are lots of fun, but the manufacturer really needs to work on the quality of their product.

I brought the giant set to share with my grandchildren. They love it. We played for over an hour and the only reason we quit was that it was time for dessert.

These rocket balloons are sooo much fun! I had picked up a smaller pkg. at a big box store and was excited to see a much better value on-line. Yes, some of the balloons pop while blowing them up and some pop during flight but you get 85! I also had the same problem with the more expensive kind I bought at the store. I agree the pump isn't the best, but will do the job. I found it works best if you roll the end of the balloon up on the stem and then pump quickly. Kids of all ages love to hear them squeal and chase them as they zip through the air. We love them so much I ordered a set for all the nephews.

I bought this for my niece and nephew for Easter. They played with it for two days and it broke. The pump stopped working. Don't waste your money!!

thats my only problem pump was no good broken after 1st use had to use my own gul to fix still very hard to use.
The bllons are Grate.

I'm a group leader for 2nd graders in a after school program. I use these for fun Friday and the kids go crazy over them. They have lasted the whole entire school year. A few have popped, but tie the end and reuse it again. A must for people who work with children.

This was the blast @ my daughter's birthday party (ages from 3-9). We have tons of balloons left but I am sure we will use them again at the next party. :) The kids loved picking their own balloon and letting them fly!!! :)

I have a two year old son who absolutly LOVES these balloons! We happened upon them one day and I bought them for his birthday party as a back up fun thing- they were the hit of the party! I on the other hand, am frustrated. The origional set I bought came with a ton of balloons and a pump. Since then I have searched the world over for replacement balloons WITHOUT the pump and can not find any. I now have 5 pumps! OK, let me clarify- you can get balloons without the pump if you want to pay more (literally) for shipping than for the balloons, which winds up to cost more than the set! I'm sorry, but I think it is absolutly rediculous to pay that much for balloons!!!
Also, all of the sets that I have purchased through a store have been fine quality. For some reason the set I got from amazon had no less than 20 defective balloons that popped as soon as I started to blow them up. Upsetting for the price...
