  • Super Fun Toy
My child had the zip string on his wish list forever. The negative reviews had me worried I would be wasting my money. I shouldn't have worried. We went ahead and bought for their birthday and we've all enjoyed playing with it. It's novelty more than an actual toy. I'd say he plays with it for 10 or 15 minutes and then it gets put away for a bit. You could almost consider it like a fidget. The string does sometimes get tangled- especially the super long one but it usually only takes a moment to untangle. And we've found as long as you are using in an open space, it rarely tangles. The string takes a little pressure to get into place, so you might have to help younger users. Overall it's cute, fun, and we're happy we finally bought it. ... show more

  • So Much Fun – A Show-and-Tell Hit!
Zip String is such a cool and unique toy! My kids absolutely love it, and it’s been a hit with their friends too. It’s super easy to use, even for younger kids, and it creates such a fun visual effect that keeps them entertained for a long time. We brought it in for show and tell at school, and it stole the spotlight! Everyone was fascinated, including the teachers! It’s great for all ages and doesn’t take long to get the hang of. I love that it encourages curiosity and play without screens. Highly recommend if you’re looking for something fun, different, and sure to impress! ... show more

  • Really fun, but short lived excitement
This was really fun for about a week and then my 8-year-old got bored with it. I'm glad it came with a bunch of strings, but it would be nice if this came with a nice zip bag or something to keep everything in. Lots of small things that kids just spread all over the place.

  • Pricey but fun!
Why did you pick this product vs others?: We saw this on shark tank and had to have one. It is pretty fun and easy to use. My husband did much better than I did with it because I just kept getting it tangled up. It’s a great gift. In my opinion too expensive but very cool!

  • fun toy be careful not to drop
my son loves these! we bought him his first one at Christmas time and he really enjoyed it. Replaced six months later because as a youngster he tends to drop things and it handled several falls on concrete and tile and is still in working condition but we decided to get a new and improved as a birthday gift so we have definitely bought again ... show more

  • Most popular Christmas gift at our house!
We have a large family and even after all the gifts were open, everyone wanted to play with this! Unfortunately I only bought 1 for our oldest grandchild. Even the adults loved it. Kind of addictive to play with. The glow in the dark strings were a big hit!

  • Fun toy that mostly can be used without a lot of help
This toy was one we gave to my older daughter for the holidays. It is a motorized string deployment system that shoots the string out in front of the device with enough force to create the illusion of it holding steady in the air. My daughter has enjoyed playing with it off and on since the holiday using the large string version for games of through circle limbo. Some cautionary notes: - The string moves very fast: I've been mistakenly hit in the face with it before and it can hurt so it's worth teaching your child to be careful early on with its use and not to aim at people. - It can easily tangle if you hit obstructions or fail to get the entire string payload through the system. Sometimes you end up with a lot of knots which can be hard for little fingers to unknot so it has required some help from me to deal with that on occasion. - Initial loading can be difficult but my children have figured it out for the most part after using for long periods and testing how much they needed to pull the string through. - The UV light at certain angles escapes the toy so it's worth added caution to avoid getting that in eyes (not sure on the danger of it but when my daughter held it awkwardly it was shining in my direction) so worth holding correctly to avoid that. The UV effect is really nice and you can disable that aspect once it has lit up the glow in the dark string (having to only re-enable it on occasion), recharge is simple, and it can be fun for people to play around with. I personally enjoyed messing with it lightly guiding the bottom string input away to create wider holes and dragging the device back and forth to create neat effects. I'd suggest it for those with the willingness to guide their children with it but would suggest only older kids for gifting to avoid pitfalls and frustration if their parents are less active with helping them. ... show more
