Cutest beach ball EVER
August 12, 2010
I purchased this especially for my three year old daughter. My two older daughters play volley ball in our pool constantly, and are always using the ball we had. I got this for my little one, so she could have her very own, and couldn't be happier with it! It is standing up to constant use. My daughter brings it in the house to play with when not in the pool, and it has stood up to one our cats batting at it. Yes, it is pricey, but of course is completely different than one of the cheapies...and SO much cuter! My kids love it; I'm happy!

Totally Awesome Beach Ball!
July 27, 2010
I bought the large shark beach ball for our 18-month old son and he LOVES it. My husband found it easy to blow up and we are both thrilled with the quality. Well worth the price and unlike most beach ball purchases, this one included a free vinyl repair kit which was an added bonus. Pool time in our backyard wouldn’t be the same without this ball. I am planning on buying the smaller one too as it’s truly a one-of-a-kind beach ball!

I got it in both sizes - large & small. Noone in the family can resist playing with them, they're so darn cute!

Poor Purchase
July 21, 2010
I purchased large 20 inch shark ball for my grandchild. We blow it up and it went down right away. I loved the product but it is poor quality! She was so excited.

Not PB Quality
July 16, 2010
I purchased this ball at our local store, took it home and went to blow it up. Unfortunately, it had a hole in one of the seams. I drove the half hour back to the store to exchange it. The exchange went great, but when I got it home, only the ball portion would blow up. The shark portion didn't even completely unfold before allowing the air into the rest of the ball. I will be returning this ball to the store the next time I am out in that area. I am very disappointed in the quality of this product!

Cute item, 2yr daughter likes playing with it. It doesn't bounce well, but works fine in the water.

Not as cute as pictured
July 6, 2010
I purchased both the large and small and was a bit disappointed - they are not as cute as pictured. The shark and grassy stuff beneath him don't seem to fully inflate and the outer ball has alternating colored panels that make it hard to see what's inside. Pretty pricey as well. A shame, because I was excited to finally receive them after waiting (since they'd been on backorder for weeks). Still love Pottery Barn Kids and think they offer the coolest, most unique stuff and they've got fantastic customer service so occasionally being slightly less than totally impressed is fine by me. My 3 year old gets a kick out of them (no pun intended).

I thought the shark would stay erect a little pricy for a limp shark

My daughter loves this beach ball.
She is only 2 years old, but loves the little shark in the middle. It keeps her interest.

Ball is Heavy and Doesn't Bounce
April 19, 2010
We purchased the smaller ball and had to return it. It's very cute but "heavy" and when you toss it up in the air it just lands and does not bounce.

my kids think this is the coolest beach ball! They have been using it in the backyard and can't wait to take it to the shore! We got the small 12" and it is the perfect size!

April 14, 2010
I gave the shark beach ball to my almost 2 year old grandson for Easter and he just loved it. His favorite thing is to toss balls back and forth and this one fascinated him. What a cute toy. I have ordered the large one for him to keep at my house

It is so cute and perfect, but they aren't really playing with it! :) They will, hopefully, as it gets warmer!!

Cute!!!
April 5, 2010
We just got this ball today!!! It is very cute and my daughter loves it from the beginning. It seems to be sturdy and so I hope it will last a long time. The 12'' ball is a perfect size for smaller kids.
