Bedwina Playground Balls Bulk - 8.5 Inch (Pack of 4) Red Rubber Bouncy Inflatable Balls, w/ Air Pump, for Kids & Adults, Indoor & Outdoor Games, Kickballs, Dodgeball, Four Square, Dodge Ball, Handball

These are not the playground quality of the thick rubber bouncy balls you remember. They are probably 50% to 75% thinner material. They are not as heavy, but they still have some durability for young kids. These are good dodge balls, since they are smaller and don't hurt as much. They are better quality than the smooth bouncy balls they sell at the ball section of a C V S OR WAL-GREENS drug store for comparison.

Balls were easy to inflate, smaller than expected but worked for its purpose. Used for softball practice so has been hit many of times by a bat and the balls are still in great condition.

Not bad for the price but they don’t inflate into perfectly round balls, I suspect because of the way they’re folded when deflated and shipped. This causes them to take unpredictable bounces and roll in a crooked line, so if you’re looking to play a competitive game of handball you’ll be in for a lot of surprises. Probably fine for dodgeball, catch, and any games that don’t require a lot of bouncing. On the small and light side, good for kids. Durable, decent value for the money.

The balls are small. They have not held air and shape.

Great for the kids!

These are nice balls for four square. One of the balls came and we couldn’t keep air in it. But the other three have held up nicely and the kids play four square with their friends with them all the time. I will definitely re-buy this set once ours are all lost/destroyed. They are a good price for the value.

Not a good product. Really thin and cheap

Great ball especially for the kindergartners and first graders who find regular basketballs a little on the heavy side. They are able to use it as a basketball but if it comes back at them it is softer and lighter. The little ones gravitate toward the red balls. All the kids seem to enjoy them. Good for dodge ball also. Have only been using a month, but so far so good.
