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!

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!

Fascinating toy, big hit at the birthday party.
Bought this strange gadget as a little "extra" for my granddaughters birthday. It appears to defy the laws of nature, and was a big hit at the birthday party. I suspect all the girls went home and asked their parents to buy them one.

Have cats?
This is hours of fun for my kids.... and cats. If you're gonna get a Zipstring, get the blacklist glow one. Its well worth the extra.

Looks really cool when played with; Read instructions to prevent tangles
My son saw an ad for these online, and he begged to get it. So we chose to get him one for Christmas, and he's had a lot of fun. As some reviewers have said, the string does sometimes get tangled. But that's usually because the zip string isn't being played with properly. You definitely need to read the instructions to decrease the chances of tangles. Both my sons love the glow-in-the-dark string. It really does glow and looks like the rope is just magically floating when the lights are out. It works as an indoor, too, which is nice when you can't play outside. It was a little more than I would've liked to have paid for a toy like this, but because it was a Christmas present we were willing to pay a little more.

Amazing toy! My 11yr. old grandson was so excited to receive it. He did a little research about who created this fun item and watched the Shark Tank episode thant even heightened his expectations. He rates it a 10+!!!

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.
