Learn how to use your Air Toobz! Can I turn the fan unit on while it is still plugged into the wall and charging? No. For your safety, the fan unit will remain off until the unit is unplugged from the wall. How come when I press the power button, the fan unit won't turn on? You must press and hold the power button for 2 seconds to turn it on. If the fan unit still does not turn on, check to see that it is unplugged from the wall. If it is unplugged from the wall and still not turning on, try recharging the fan unit. Why does the fan unit shut off while my kids are playing with it? The fan unit has an automatic shut-off feature after 15 minutes of running to prevent the battery from draining. Simply press and hold the power button for 2 seconds to turn it back on. My fan unit will only run for two minutes at a time. How do I fix this? The fan has 3 modes, with mode 2 being a demo mode where the fan runs for 2 minutes. To switch back to default mode 1, press and hold the power button for 8 seconds until the green lights blink 3 times. Repeat until the green lights only blink once. Can I charge Air Toobz through an adapter outside of the United States? If not, can I use a different charging cord? Charging requires a type A or B style wall plug and an input voltage of 100-240v AC with a frequency between 50-60Hz. If your adapter meets these requirements, then you can use it. You should not use a different charging cord as it may cause damage.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ My toddler is absolutely obsessed with the Air Toobz! It has quickly become one of his favorite toys, and he plays with it every single day. I love that it’s more than just fun. It encourages creativity, problem-solving, and cause-and-effect learning as he rearranges the tubes into new designs and watches the balls zoom through them. The quality is fantastic, the pieces are sturdy, and it’s easy enough for little hands to build with. I also appreciate that it keeps him engaged for long periods without needing screens. We’ve already started thinking of new ways to expand and mount our setup because he enjoys it so much. If you’re looking for an interactive toy that grows with your child and sparks their imagination, I can’t recommend the Air Toobz enough. It has been worth every penny for our family! I I would recommend hanging them on the wall though so you don’t have parts all over your house. The 3 inch wall holders I purchased from Lowe’s for only five dollars and it came in a set of 30. ... show more

    • Endlessly Entertaining STEM Toy That Actually Gets Used
Set name: The Original Air Toobz
This is one of the coolest STEM toys we’ve bought. The Air Toobz are so simple but incredibly engaging, and kids immediately start experimenting with how the air flow works, how to build different shapes, and how to make the pieces move. It’s fun, hands-on, and keeps attention way longer than most “educational” toys. The tubes feel sturdy, the connections work well, and it’s surprisingly satisfying to watch everything in motion. It’s great for creativity, problem-solving, and sensory play, and it’s the kind of toy kids will keep coming back to instead of forgetting about after one day. Highly recommend, especially for kids who love building and tinkering. ... show more

    • Huge Hit! *Update*1/23/2024*
Set name: The Original Air Toobz
**Update 1/23/2024** Sadly I have to update my review just weeks after leaving my first review. I ordered this on 12/26 and it arrived after the new year which was find since I bought it for my daughters birthday in early January. I ordered it on Dec 23,2023 and it arrived Jan 3,2024 -- on Jan 22,2024 the motor and blower stopped working. Since it was within the return window I attempted to do so and planned on buying a new one assuming it was a fluke that it stopped working. I contacted the seller that same day and got the following response. Limolin LLC *My reasoning for asking for the return* Jan 22, 2024 11:10 AM Hello, I’d like to request a return as the blower has stopped working. The lights will show that it is fully charged. Once powered on the dial lights up but there is no air movement and the motor doesn’t turn on. *sellers response* Jan 22, 2024 11:49 AM hello, please note that a defect or damage should be reported up to 5 days from the delivery date and your package was delivered on Jan. 3. regards, customer care I bought this within the extended holiday return window and am shocked that they will not refund this. For a toy at this price point (at the time it was $165 I expected this to last much much longer then 19 days. For these reasons I cannot recommend this toy any longer. Original Review As soon as I saw this advertised I knew my kids would love it. For years they have been obsessed with the air tubes displays at kid museums and now we have they own buildable one at home. Easy to use & put together. The tubes and connectors just slide together instead of screw in which makes it easier for my younger kids to build independently. Replacing the foam balls once they get lost or broken seems simple because they are about the size of the popper foam balls used for the toy guns. The dial lights up to show how powerful the blower is running, at full speed quieter then I expected. The only thing I wish was that while it was plugged in I was able to run it. So far I’ve only been able to run the blower after it’s charged and unplugged. Not a big deal to me but wouldn’t be nice. Other thing is that you should buy the expansion pack of connectors and tubes as you’re going to want to build more elaborate runs. ... show more

So this is expensive, but we have a toddler who really only likes to play with balls so we made the purchase! My 3.5 year old LOVES this! He need some help with putting it together, but he has so much fun playing with this! For us it was definitely worth the purchase!

    • Fun town for my kid
Set name: The Original Air Toobz
My daughter loves this toy. It was very easy to set up and use. The blower is not that big but has enough power to push the balls through and even shoot them out of the tube. I also like that it is rechargeable and does not have to be plugged in all the time. It is very lightweight and easy to transport and move around the house. It comes with enough balls to play with over and over again. It also has a power knob where you can change the speed of the blower, which allows the balls to go slow or fast. The cons: I think the machine is very cool and fun to play with. I do think the toy is overpriced and should only cost no more than 60 dollars. The on-off switch could be more user-friendly. My daughter is two years old and is very smart and can turn on and access a lot of things. In this machine, you need to hold the button down for 3 seconds for it to turn on. If it had a flip switch, it would make it easier for kids to use. For the price, I think it should come with double the amount of tubes. You have some tubes to make a couple of loops and designs but for the price, it should have more. Overall, it's a nice product and fun for the kids and the family. ... show more
