Greater than one weekAs over-engineered as these are. There are some good advantages. Firstly, they are re-useable. In a waterballon fight, duels, a consequence of a rochambaeux loss etc. You can grab it fill it in seconds in a pool or bucket and youre good to go. Its a different dynamic in play...but it makes it fun. Splash factor is great. Especially because if youve played before. Being hit by a water balloon can hurt and sometimes just bounce off you. Sometimes you have to throw it so hard just to make them pop (I felt so bad pelting my 5 yo daughter with a regular water balloon). These silicone ones were PERFECT, they explode on impact nearly all the time. Durability. I fear this will suffer sooner or later but theyve held up a couple of sessions so far. I honestly feel they will be worth their cost in the long run. Even if they break, youre left with useable neodymium magnets for other projects. Im impressed with these and this one has one.of the cheapest per-balloon cost. I do wish they had a larger quantity pack for a better price per balloon cost. These things will be great as we hit higher temps this season.

> 3 dayI didnt read through the description again, and this only comes with 5 balls, so not much for a large party or event, but enough for one or two kids to play with. These are nice because they are refillable and reusable and come with a small mesh bag for storage. Wouldnt be very easy to gift unless placed in a gift bag due to it coming in a mesh bag packaging.

Greater than one weekOnly thing I do not like about these is they seem to rip really easily. That could be just my child, but we have had a few rip.

> 3 dayThese are a great idea. Pros: 1) Easy to fill 2) Do not hurt when you get hit 3) They are reusable and do not make a mess like normal balloons do when they send broken pieces everywhere 4) They come in great colors Cons: 1) Unless you hit someone right the water can rebound away from the person and not get them very wet 2) A bit expensive but I guess that is the tradeoff for purchasing regular balloons over and over

> 3 dayThese are great water balloons. My kids were able to quickly learn how to fill the balloons without any instructions from me. They are so fast and easy to fill. Just place them into a bucket of water and gently push the two halves together. The magnets will take care of the rest. They really are water tight. If you dont throw the balloon hard enough, the balloon wont burst open. I love how there is almost no mess to clean up afterwards. You just pick up the balloon and refill in a bucket of water then you are ready to go. Comes with a mesh bag that the balloons can be thrown into to take with you.

> 3 dayA little hard to get them full of water, they didn’t leak. Broke open when thrown just like a traditional water balloon. Love that they’re reusable. Only used one day thrown several times and magnet seemed to hold.

> 3 dayThese are great, the kind of idea you wish you had yourself. Super soft silicone material with strong magnets along its equator where it opens. Its extremely easy to fill. Open, submerge, push together until the magnets snap together to close the sphere, done. It feels nice and its easy to hold once filled. It bursts once its hit something. It handles well in your hand but will burst if you squeeze it. Theres no waste, no bits of balloons to pick up, no wasting time filling from the faucet. Only downside maybe is that you cant get them big like some balloons. They are all the same size, a little small than a tennis ball.
