A real disappointment July 18, 1999
By A Customer
Durability:    Educational:    Fun:   
I was excited to see this product: I'm a big fan of underwater toys, and regularly visit my nieces and nephews for extended "pool parties." And the idea is absolutely fabulous.

Unfortunately, they simply don't work. The sound transmitted isn't any more legible than just yelling underwater without any device, it's just a little louder. Even 1 foot away from each other, basically yelling in each other's ears with the thing, we couldn't understand a single word. Very disappointing, and the kids lost interest in the Water Talkies in about 10 minutes.

Again, the idea is great, but unfortunately the implementation simply doesn't work well at all. Frankly, I'm amazed to see these still on the market 3 years later: it just goes to show that good ideas can sell even if the reality isn't there.

(In all fairness, I tried them when they first came out, and for all I know they've been improved since then. That would be nice, but I'm not counting on it.)

For a really great underwater toy with staying power (still the favorite pool toy 4 years later,) look for a Toypedo...

Durability:    Educational:    Fun:   
I bought the underwater walkie-talkies for my kids thinking they would be a great new pool toy. Much to our disappointment they did not work. We tried them in a variety of circumstances and different pools. Nothing intelligible.

This was about a year ago and maybe they have improved them since.

They look durable, not sure what educational value except maybe "caveat emptor"!

Thanks for the opportunity to provide feedback.
