I bought this as a birthday gift for my 11 year old grandson. He loves it!
He had 2 friends for a sleepover and they had a terrific time playing with it outside in the dark.
It requires some small batteries that are included. I’m not sure how long they last.
More importantly, my gift was a “hit.”

Flat Ball
The ball won’t hold any air even immediately after pumping it up. The light up effect is really cool, but this ball doesn’t bounce or function like an actual basketball. The material has a hard plastic feel, not like a rubberized regular basketball. My kids still love playing with it, because the toddler likes to carry it around, but older kids would probably be disappointed. I wouldn’t repurchase.

Fun but does not hold air
This arrived deflated so be sure to have an air pump to avoid disappointment. It lights up nicely but doesn’t bounce like a basketball. It’s more a novelty ball to toss. Not really worth the money.

Great Gift for Grandson
Fabulous gift for my grandson for Christmas. At first the item was out of stock but was notified by Nordstrom that it was back and so I purchased it. I'm so glad I did as it was on my 6 year old grandson's wish list (he did his Christmas wish list on the Nordstrom website, so convenient for a grammy) I live on the west coast and my only grandson lives on the east coast so Nordstrom is my go to site for gifts for my favorite little guy. I know he will be thrilled on Christmas morning! The shipping is free and delivery confirmation assures me it arrived.

flat on arrival
Unfortunately we pumped it up 3 times before realizing that this ball arrived flat. Deflated every time we pumped it up. Very cool idea- wish it had worked- the kids were so excited

Purchased it for my 7 year old grandson
looks great with the shiny light inside. Nice texture and feel to it. The size is a basketball size. You do need a air plump to finish rounding it off.

Leaky valve - unusable
I really wanted this to work. The first ball had a leaky valve and the ball didn’t bounce after 10 min. I went to the store to return it and bought a second one because I really liked the idea. The second ball has the same problem. I googled how to fix leaky valve and read I can apply gorilla glue over the valve after pumping it up. Guess what? The glue bubbles up with the air leaking out. I’m not asking for a replacement because I found it was a common problem with this ball. I’m going to return it.
