Tota Hand Held 2-Way Dual Action Balloon Pump for Balloons

Been teaching balloon scuplting to young kids in a summer camp for 15 yrs. Went on a hiatus the past 3 years, and when I came back to do it again needed all new supplies. I ordered about 6 new pump styles to see what works for younger kids so they can pump their own balloons. For me, an adult, this one is the best out of what I just ordered. This pump is very similar, if not identical, to some of the pumps I used to use. Kids 8+ or 9+ can use it well. My 6 yr old struggled with it (on the back pump action) and he has above average motor skills, which is aligned with my previous years' teaching. But overall seems a good quality that would last. Will be buying more of these for the kids 9+ and myself and my helpers to use.

It's practical and easy to use. If you're thinking about it, don't hesitate. It helped me a lot when inflating a couple of balloons.

I bought this because I wanted to make balloon animals for my kids. Twisting balloons are almost impossible to blow up without a pump and this makes it incredibly easy. I really love that it's a double action pump so it'll put out air when you pull the base out and while you push it back in. I do wish the other colors of this same pump were priced the same as this pink/purple one, but it's just a pump, so the color doesn't matter much to me. Overall, I'm very pleased with the purchase.

This is an easy to use balloon pump that I used to teach my friends how to make balloon animals. It works well, and is good for the value I paid. It is not the greatest, but it does get the job done.

Gets the work done, has good air flow. Nothing special about it

Muy buena. Fácil de manejar. Buen agarre

These pumps were disappointing. You can inflate balloons with them but air hisses out the back of the pump or something and it’s tough to inflate (air seeps out of balloon while trying to inflate unless your form is perfect and your pumps are fast). Also the plastic on the pumps is sharp and pokes you when you try to pump (maybe this is just because my hands are large?). They feel cheap too. I bought 2 of these and it’s the same with both. I gave them 3 stars because it is possible to inflate sculpting balloons with them - just not comfortable or smooth.

We bought one of those balloon animal kits for Christmas but it was too hard for my kid to blow up the balloons herself, so I ordered this contraption. It's pretty easy for her and she's an uncoordinated kid, so I'm sure you'll have no problem. She's so totally into balloon animal making now, there are weird twisted balloons all over the house that she says are various animals but IDK what the heck they are supposed to be. She's asking for more balloons - help.
