Everything about this is poorly made. I should have spent a few more dollars finding a better version. I have seen different versions of these that would keep going for a long time. Because the strings and balls are poorly aligned, this tends to stop after a few seconds.

I have played with different versions of this and found this one to be made pretty cheap. It works but if I had known that it would of looked so cheap in person I would have spent a few more bucks.

I purchased this as a replacement for a teacher who had one that got all tangled up by a special education student. When I opened the box at school one of the balls was not attached, I tried to super glue it which didn't work and I didn't have time to send it back before the end of school so i am hoping hot glue will work. I was disappointed that the item was broken.
