This 80cm high-quality bouncing toy provides an excellent way to improve balance and coordination through physical exercise, making it a staple for garden activities and races.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is a pump included with the space hopper?

No, the pump is not included. You will need a standard needle-nozzle pump to inflate the hopper.

What is the maximum weight capacity?

The hopper is built with durable materials, but it is recommended for use by children and average-weight adults; avoid excessive loads that exceed the material's elasticity limits.

Can I use this hopper indoors?

It is best suited for outdoor use. If used indoors, ensure the floor is non-abrasive and free of furniture to prevent accidents.

How do I store it for the winter?

Deflate the ball entirely, wipe it clean, and fold it loosely. Store it in a cool, dry bin away from direct heat sources.

Is the material safe for skin contact?

Yes, the material is designed for safe contact, though it is recommended to wear clothes while bouncing to prevent friction burn.

Can the hopper be cleaned with chemicals?

Only use mild soap and water. Harsh chemicals or solvents may degrade the rubberized material.

Troubleshooting

The ball feels too soft or does not bounce well

Check the inflation level. You may need to add more air using a standard ball pump.

The hopper loses air during use

Ensure the valve plug is fully inserted and securely seated. Inspect for small punctures if air loss continues.

Difficulty maintaining balance

Ensure the ball is on a completely level surface and the user is gripping both handles firmly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up your hopper, insert a standard ball pump needle into the valve and inflate until firm. Do not over-inflate. For care, keep the ball away from sharp rocks, thorns, or glass that could puncture the material. After outdoor use, wipe the surface with a damp cloth to remove dirt or debris. Store the hopper in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight when not in use for extended periods, as prolonged UV exposure can degrade the plastic material over time.
