First of all some balloons are cheap and break easily but not these !!!!! They are perfect for twisting!! My first balloon was my first project. Didn’t have to break a few like I usually do. I’m very very happy with this high quality balloon!!

I simply needed some black 260s fast and these seemed to have decent reviews.

The balloons are firm once inflated even when stretched. I haven’t tried deflating and re-inflating, but on that topic. Much like others have said on here, they are pretty hard to inflate, not impossible, but you need to have a pretty good grip on the nozzle end when inflating with something like those dual action hand pumps. The balloon likes to put up a fight when being inflated in the sense that without a good grip on the nozzle end, air will come out. Inflating it had me scared it would pop. Though the balloon does feel thick (and is very opaque), just not in a good way like other popular brands. And then when you do inflate it “completely” there’s a bit of a nub at the end. Lastly, the balloons are more like 160s rather than 260s in my personal opinion.

As far as twisting it went, it wasn’t scary to twist but because it’s so firm, doing things as simple as a lock twist feels like you really gotta turn them for a while to make sure they stay in place. Overall it just feels like everything will come undone so easily.

As far as it keeping air in, I’ll have an update on that later.
[UPDATE Sep 6th] So after 2 days the tail has already deflated into the lower part of the tail, but it’s holding up relatively well. It doesn’t feel squishy, still feels relatively firm. Though, like any balloon, it has lost its shine.

They are decent if you’re in a pinch and need something fast, but I obviously wouldn’t recommend these for something like beginner gigs. They are good for some practice though!

I’m still at the beginning of my balloon modeling journey so for all I know, I could be talking out of my ***.

I used my 260s for a balloon arch display and for that these were perfect quality for the price.

With these, I was able to tie together several balloons to make a complete backdrop. Really worked well.
