how durable is this? - I read so many complaining it's not durable and breaks easily, then others say it's great.

I have out it up the only thing I can say that I was not happy with is its size.

It durable got it on christmas 2012 for my kids and stil going and she was 9. One of the color tiles did come off but that was because i made a the ball and she threw it. Lol

It is not the quality that I remember it being when I was a child. Having said that, it hasn't broken but my kids are rather gentle with it and don't use it often. I preferred the two color visually and found one with that pattern.

It didn't completely break so far, but it's very loose now, so most shapes do not hold well. I have three kids who pay with it pretty actively; taking that into consideration the durability is ok, but not great.

It is great before it breaks. I gave to my son for Xmas last year. He played with it for about an hour, dropped it and it broke in to 2 pieces. I think it should be able to withstand dropping a few times before breaking. When it dropped it wasn't in the "ball" position, it was extended. Hope this helps.

I bought mine second hand from someone. I have had it for 2 summers now and it has not broken. They said they had it for 1-2 summers before me.

I've had mine for at least 2 years now. It works just as well as when I had bought it even though I've dropped it more than a few times now (I do use an Air Case on it). I'm guessing some of you guys must really abuse it or something.

It's good! I've been using mine for a couple of months now. It's showing no signs of falling apart.

I only got to use mine once. It broke the first time out, and I don't know how to fix it. I don't think it's very durable.

pretty durable but I did not use daily and eventually started using a blue tooth so I would say its durable for average use. I had mine about 6 months. My kids still use it occasionally.

I have been using it from past 3 months, on an average it should last upto year with the good durability and quality, I would say certainly best buy for that price, just go for it!!

I've had it for about 1/2 year and it's still comfy and working fine. I don't see this chair breaking down anytime soon. No wear and tears. I use it in my home and sit in it for hours everyday. I can spin around fast still! If you're into that kind of stuff...

Just to let you know, Mine was not in good condition when i got mine, but that was just design issue. I can not tell you how many times I have dropped it and frankly I don't care what kind of damage it does or doesnt do to the case since I knew immediately upon coming out of the box that I would have to replace it soon. That being said, It has held up to drops better than I had expected. Every time I drop it, I still look down to check that everything is ok with my phone. I believe it has stood up to this because the rubber coating on the inside of the case stops most of the forces that would normally shatter the plastic case around it.

I wouldn't purposely beat it up lol But i've dropped it more than a few times and it's alive and kicking. It's made to be used by children so I believe it's the most durable system they've made recently.

No, this is very durable. I've moved it around, plugged/unplugged it multiple times, and it works perfectly (after almost a year).

Ours has held up great! We have had ours for a few years now with no issues and we use it almost every day.

Ello .. well ... I've been using mine for the past several months & it seems to be ok with daily use ... it's not torn etc ... so overall I'm still happy with it ...

it's quite durable. I carry mine around and use it in cosplay (being a 1:1 scale prop replica as well) and I have dropped it a few times. it's fallen from my pocket and such. and so far I have had a few problems... the casing seems unscratched (by casing I mean the remote itself) although the software seems a bit glitchy (light and sound doesn't turn off after release of button, light doesn't turn on, light and sound have a long delay) after. all in all it still works though. so it will survive a fall out of a shirt pocket, and being shaken (though that's when the glitching starts)

I have had mine for about a year or maybe more and I am pretty hard on it. It has held up well.

Ours doesn't get a lot of use, but I don't see where it would break under normal use. It feels sturdy.

I find that mine works great and is durable, but I don't beat it around-it stays in the shop. Your mileage may vary.
