4 out of 5 stars CUTE & PERFECT SIZE FOR ON THE GO!   November 26, 2008
Dawn Sweet
I purchased these Boon snack balls in both available colors and they are the perfect size for toddler snacks. Just fill and toss in the diaper bag! They are durable too, as I discovered since they have been dropped many times and never cracked or broke. I only wish the opening was large enough to accommodate my baby's hand.


5 out of 5 stars Perfect for little hands!   August 19, 2008
J. Granquist (Lincoln, Nebraska)
I was somewhat worried about buying this Boon Ball after reading the reviews, but we wanted the cup and the ball was a steal when buying them together. My son LOVES this snack ball. He's 9 months old and it is perfect for his little hands to hold and grab the snacks inside. Easy to clean also. Works very well. Would buy again and recommend highly!


2 out of 5 stars Looks cool but doesn't hold up   July 28, 2008
JJ (San Francisco, CA)
My 1-year old loved playing with the ball but unfortunately, the lid didn't hold up to the wear and tear of opening and closing. The lid eventually snapped off completely in about a week.


2 out of 5 stars Good idea, poorly implemented   July 15, 2008
B. Jen (United States)
Nice idea, attractive design, but not very durable. The plastic piece that keeps the swiveling lid attached to the ball broke after a couple weeks of regular use. We never even dropped it, it just snapped. And the ball shape without a lid doesn't really lend itself to many other uses. We're using it as a bath toy now.

I can't recommend this unless they can make it stronger.



2 out of 5 stars Nice idea but faulty design   July 2, 2008
consumate consumer (Vancouver, BC CA)
I bought the Snack ball thinking it was a cool, stylish product. It worked great for about a month, then I handed it to my daughter (just turned 10 months) and she dropped it on the floor. The little orange hatch fell off and the plastic thing that holds it together broke. Now it's useless since it won't close and its unfixable.

I used to recommend this product but I never will again. The design is faulty and I would prevent anyone from buying this. A ziploc bag or resealable tupperware box might not be as stylish but it won't break in the most common of situations. I'm very disappointed in this product especially because of the cost. Yuu'd expect some quality for more than 2x the price of a tupperware box.

In response to the BPA free/ phthalate hysteria... yes it's great that this product is free of those hard to spell correctly chemicals but here's a handy link as alternatives to the snack ball which I don't recommend buying simply due to its cost vs usefulness/design. Cost is too high for only being able to use a few times just to look cool.

Check out these alternatives from the blog by greenerpenny (dot) blogspot (dot) com looking up "least-toxic-totables"
