My daughter received this for Christmas when she was six. She had never been on one before, so it took her a while to work on her balance and stay up on it. One jump became three, three jumps became ten, ten jumps became twenty five, and so on. With continued practice, her current record is over six hundred jumps without stopping. (Yes ---- she was exhausted afterward, but oh so proud of herself!!) This has been a wonderful toy, and well worth the $20 spent. Her balance has been incredible, and it's really quite a workout. She has had such fun competing against her old record jumps.

It is well-constructed over-all, but be sure to watch the rubber tip on the bottom if your child is a jumper like mine. She literally wore through the rubber tip without my realizing it, and the metal end of the stick had nothing to grip, once sending her flying onto the garage floor and hitting her head. Besides a goose egg she was OK, but she now wears her bike helmet to jump. (When I called... Read more

My son, Jake, received the pogo stick as a gift when he was five. It has become his prized toy above his scotter, bike, blades, etc. He is now almost eight and I thought would want a "better" version, but his pogo stick is irreplaceable: It is very durable and lightweight (we've taken it on many vacations) It is easy to manuever(he can jump over and around anything and for close to an hour with few stops). The other pogo stick is being returned and we're buying another of this version.

We love active outdoor toys here. I bought this for my son (now 8) about 3 years ago. He LOVED it and had a blast daily with it. However, unbeknownst to me, the center bar has a cap on it that fell off. It is a simple plastic cap that covers up a plain old pipe. Who knew it could fall off?

Anyhow, one day my son was happily hopping and he stopped for a second to tell me something. As he stopped, he lost his footing (my kids are freakishly agile too) and the uncapped center bar popped up and sliced his chin open. Blood spurted out everywhere. I found out later it's a vascular area (which basically means it bleeds alot). We were terrified and rushed to the hospital. I've never seen so much blood in my life.

It ends up it wasn't a bad or very deep cut but he got stitches. The company owner called concerned and with an apology after I emailed with our experience but I never got anything else (like an offer for a different pogo stick, even after telling him... Read more
