After a little time of reviews have the balls held up?

I've had mine for a few months and do crossfit workouts with it so it gets used heavily and looks and is still working perfectly! So I would say yes.

I have had it 3 months and it has stood up fine. I am doing rotational throws against a wall and slams about 2x/week

Unsure mine are still going strong. It's a great hand held tool, not bulky at all. worth the price for the size of the tool in general.

Yes it seems to have held up nicely - I have two of them - both little wear and tear so far - they have got years left!

Mine has lasted a few years, though I don't use mine everyday, more like every month. All motors bust up when consistantly used, but I'd say for effectiveness it has as a battery powered vibrator and the material itself it is worth it. The material doesn't crack or cause discomfort, maybe sure you let all parts dry before storing. When it comes to buying anything that's mechanical, in general, all cases are different and most eventually wear, but I've had mine for years and it still works. I can tell that mine isn't mechanically in tune anymore, it has an rotor that spins, and mines starting to wear the inside. I can't say if it's going to continue to do so or if it'll just wear out the inner wall a bit and continue working. So it's up to what you think it's worth. But anything mechanical and less expensive, is going to wear out. If it wears out right away then you'd have to inform the company but the chances of that happening are rare. Every company has it's flukes and I'm sure they'll reimburse you if it ever happens(that's what I do when I order something and it's not what it was supposed to be, never had an issue because amazons a tight ship). Anyway mines lasted and works well, if you're still skeptical, I'd say research it over the internet some more and maybe visit some local sex shops for advice on value.

That sounds truly strange as these balls are very sturdy. Is it possible it was defective in some way? I did, however, purchase a bigger ball. So far, it has held up pretty well. Check how long you've had it to see if it is still covered under their warranty, and let Gaiam know about your experience.

Mine have been fine. I did get one that was broken/defective, but other wise ok.

Mine have held up really well. Also, I had lots of extra product left so if you needed to touch up it would be really easy to do.

I had mine for a few months and it's fine..i can't see it wearing out that easily.

Yes, mine has a slight bit of play, but it hasn't been a problem, & I never notice it in daily use.

We've had ours 6 months now and they are holding up so far. For the price we paid, I think they are a better deal then buying them from Sears. They were outrageously expensive.

I've only had mine for a couple of months but so far it seems to be holding up well

I've only recently got my pack of Jacks so my ball is still in tack. Hope it will last for some time yet? How long have you yours and how often have you changed it?

i have had mine for about 6 months and they are holding up just fine. i have no complaints what so ever.

In the entire case, I had no broken balls and no noticeable dimples. They were definitely worth the price for me. I agree with Abe that these are not what you want for high-level competition, but they're a great buy for recreational use.

I feel as if the real question you might be asking is whether or not it "falls" apart. I've had mine for months and I use it often. I've had no issues with durability as of now.

I've only used it maybe 4 times since I got it. My nephew has crashed it every time and it still works. The las time he dropped it Ina pond. After that it was acting weird. I dried it out and recharged it and was working again. So far It has been durable for me?

They are relatively new, so I am not surprised that they may have some quality issues. But, I have had mine for 3 month and have had no issues with it. I really like it a lot!
