NEED TO MAKE REPLACEMENT BALLS!

The toy is cute. Baby loves it. I can overlook the fact that the balls don’t always shoot into the opening even when perfectly aligned. BUT! Because of that, there definitely needs to be a way to purchase replacement balls. If anything, what a way to make more money since almost everyone here is complaining about that very thing.

My child likes to play with the balls, he is a little too young to understand the toy but seems to enjoy it so far! Sometimes the balls don't go into the slide part despite the tube being lined up but it still is a fun toy.

Bianca - 2 months ago, Verified purchaser
LOVE this toy! It's cute and the balls popping are so much fun! However, the kids like to stuff smaller toys/objects down the spout. If you can't reach them, you have to take the whale apart to remove. It has like a million mini screws. Unfortunately, after taking it apart once, the second time we just stopped playing with it.

Super cute super fun to play with but I think its a little dangerous, I mean for the price I think it should come with a speed button where you can slow down how fast the balls fly out I don’t trust this toy with my kids alone lol the balls fly out so hard & fast

Worked for a little while and was really cute but the motor that throws the balls out kept breaking and the toy didn’t last a year even. We fixed it at least three times before giving up on it.

This toy was great for my son as a Christmas gift. Then all of a sudden a couple months later, the motor stopped working to throw the ball and the music plays for 2 seconds even with replacing batteries so a little disappointed on that aspect of things.
