5.0 out of 5 stars Fun quirky thing for your office!

J. · September 14, 2025

I bought this for my desk at work. People laugh when they see this flopping around. If you get this, get an external power supply (9v) wall plug. It EATS batteries. Even high quality 9v battery (Duracell) last only like 15 minutes before the little man stops dancing.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fun!

I bought this for my husband as a get better gift after surgery. It’s small but cute enough to put on a desk. It made him laugh.. the only thing I can say is sometimes it gets stuck, not sure if that’s because it’s small…but it still works enough to get the point across.

4.0 out of 5 stars Fun but loud, be careful handling

a. · January 2, 2024

Got a couple of these as gifts for xmas and all were loved and worked well. Only issue is they are a bit loud so for someone using at their work desk might be an issue in some circumstances. Also the one my kids share they put their hands on the fan on the back that spins and it stopped working as well / the fab probably doesn't spin as well so the amount of air or movement of air no longer produces fluid movements. This fan part is easily touched when handling and picking up so my guess is that this could be the issues with inflation and movement that many note in their reviews. The only reason we know what happened is because i saw it happen in real time / it worked fine then my inquisitive kids wanted to check out the fan part and it instantly stopped working as well once they touched it. You easily touch that part on the back when handling (picking up or moving) so it is easily damaged in my opinion, should be held on the sides.

1.0 out of 5 stars I would pay twice the price to have NOT had this User Experience

M.D. · January 10, 2022

I received this as a stocking stuffer from my wife... a small gag because of my love of a family guy gag.I open it - it needs a battery - common enough.But can I open the battery compartment with my hands? No! It is sealed with a tiny phillips head screw - too small to get a regular screwdriver into, requiring me to go to my tools to fish out a sufficiently small headed screw driver.I get it opened and go to where I have batteries, careful to hang onto the tiny screwdriver to close it. But does it need a common battery? No - it needs a 9V - the kind that I used to keep around for smoke detectors but now not even smoke detectors use them.So I have to scour the house for a 9V battery, still looking for this to but a smile on my face. I find one and put it in only to discover that in my battery search, I've set down the tiny screw driver which I have to find. Now to close it up. Lo and behold the battery compartment is not the type that unlocks but holds the screw... the tiny screw is completely gone.Lastly - my item completely didn't work. It was getting power because the fan would turn for little bit but there was no waving. This actually wouldn't get a 1 star review from me though because I understand that sometimes items are just defective or break in transit. What makes me write this is the experience of using this. This is an item that needs to just work with limited user setup - it's a gag after all. You can't have users for this chasing down special tools and relatively rarely used batteries. You may say, aren't these your own problems - I'd argue that these are the results of unforgivable design negligence. There is no way the makers of this product actually walked through the total user experience of using this item (which I remind you is a novelty product with no practical application - not a life saving device) from unboxing to end and decided this was acceptable. Instead of getting a chuckle (the intent of the item), I was absolutely enraged by the time I was ready to flip the power switch - and on Christmas morning.

3.0 out of 5 stars Loud but Not Very Effective

N.B. · July 2, 2025

The Wacky Waving Inflatable Tube Guy is definitely loud, which might annoy some people. It doesn’t work as smoothly as I expected and sometimes struggles to stay fully inflated. Fun idea, but the performance could be better.

5.0 out of 5 stars Love it!

買って良かった

き. · April 15, 2025

9Vの四角い電池1つで動きます。ちなみに電池は付いてないので別で用意する必要があります。DCアダプターでも動かせますがこれも付いていないので別で用意する必要があります。はじめは電池で試してみました。問題なく動いてくれました。次にDCアダプターで試してみましたが電池の時より元気に動いた気がしました。アダプターだと電池の時みたいにパワーがなくなる心配がないのでその方が良いかもです。あまり良くない評価の方もいるみたいなので当たりハズレがあるのかもですね。猫に見せたら不思議そうにみてました。買って良かったです。商品はイギリスからB postで届きました。商品を梱包してある封筒はボロボロでしたが(笑)中身は無事でした。
