I have used quite a few different silent basketballs. The Official Silent Basketball has the best feel in my opinion and is of better quality and material than the others I have tried. It has been a few weeks of consistent use, and I have not experienced any problems with the ball. I have seen some reviews that say the ball does not bounce well or that it begins to fall apart. That has NOT been a problem for me. The listing is actually quite accurate. It bounces about 85% of a real basketball, it is in fact made of high density foam, it is slightly lighter than a real basketball, and it should only be used on hard floor. I believe that some of the complaints for this product are because customers are not actually reading the full description or taking the advice of the seller on how to properly use. I have used the ball on hard floor only, no carpet or rug. And kept it away from any pets. Since this product is made from foam, clearly it should be handled with more care than a leather ball. This product has actually achieved what I wanted from it. Indoor dribbling training without making a ton of noise. As a training tool, it really does work and helps with ball handling. I'm glad I found this product and went with the WAWAWEWA version of it. It's definitely worth the price. This ball would be a great gift for younger kids and teens looking to practice during the off season or practicing after hours and not disturb the whole house. Just make sure to follow the instructions in the listing. Specifically avoid pets and carpets. You will be all good and the ball will not have any issues as far as I can tell. Also, this ball is noticeably heavier than the other non-brand balls that I have bought. For all these reasons, I give the product 5 stars and would definitely recommend. READ THE PRODUCT DESCRIPTION AND AVOID CARPET!

I was on the fence on whether this product would work as described. I was actually surprised when we received it. It really does bounce indoors similar to a normal basketball and is super quiet. My son actually loves it and dribbles everywhere around the house. A few things to note: - It is best to use on hard surface flooring like wood or tile. It works so-so on carpet and rugs. - The hole on the bottom is not an actual hole where you inflate. I learned the hard way. Its just there for looks. - You get about 85% of the bounce of a normal basketball. They state that fact in the description above. We haven't had any issues with durability yet. Will update post if it starts falling a part anytime soon.

Low noise which is not annoying compared to an actual basketball ball when dribbled inside the house. A person can still enjoy watching tv while someone is bouncing and pounding this silent ball. It bounce on tiles, wood, and carpet. Please DO NOT expect this to be as bouncy like an actual basketball ball because it is NOT. This silent ball will make your hands work to get a good bounce and that is what you need in an actual basketball game. Will need to check the durability and I might update this review in the future.

Got this for a gift for a family member and all of us were blown away at how cool this is. Can't believe how silent it is and how well it bounces. If you want an alternative for a kid to practice dribbling while in the house and not disturb EVERYONE with a constant dribbling noise, this is perfect.

We needed a basketball my son could dribble in the house during our warm summers. We watched several videos and decided on the WAWAWEWA. We are extremely happy with the quality and it really is silent. He has used it all summer and it has held up really well.

I bought this for my youngest son and he loves it, however, my oldest son keeps taking it so now I need to buy another one! The kids play with it all the time! It did get a tiny hole in it but didn’t affect the usage.

This was kind of pricey for what you get and it wears rather quickly but my kid LOVES it. He's been dribbling around the house since he got it.
