Just Play The Original Giant Slinky Walking Spring Toy, Metal Slinky, Party Favors, Fidget Toys, Kids Toys for Ages 5 Up

I got this as a gag gift for my son-in-law’s birthday. But he loved it and played with it for hours while we were in the backyard barbecuing. Definitely reminiscing to my childhood except it’s huge so that makes it more fun.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:Good

Good old fashioned fun AKA retro. Kids are enjoying the walk down the steps. Doesn't tangle, or make you hands black like they used to and is solid.

this was purchased for an adult and he loved it

They don't "slink" and they stretch out easily

Slinky, you let me down.This product is bad. Bad packaging, bad quality, and essentially unable to perform the basic expectations of a slinky.First the box is paper-thin and because the item inside is metal and relatively heavy, the box will begin to fall apart long before the item gets to you if it is handled with anything less than absolute care.Second, this slinky is terrible. It is longer and has a larger diameter than a regular slinky, but the metal used to create the slinky is not any thicker or sturdier. As such, you end up with a flimsy and useless toy that gets caught on itself. It cannot slink over without getting hung up. It cannot "Go down stairs." Though heavier than the packaging, the metal is thin and light. Its essentially a spool of flat flimsy wire that cannot perform the expected function of a Slinky. It's trash. Likely a victim of some sort of product shrinkage to keep the price down.I loved Slinkys as a kid and I wanted to show my kids how much fun they can be. Well that did not happen. You are better off getting one of the non-slinky brand heavy duty plastic ones that this point. Oh how the mighty have fallen.

Who doesn’t like a good slinky? You know the toy you play with for twenty minutes m, it gets tangled up and then you spend another twenty minutes un tangling and then repeat. Yes I would buy again! :)

Outstanding properties of just the right size, strength and weight for achieving a steady and controllable Zen rhythm. Relaxing and restorative.
