NetJuggler's opinion on the Tobar 60cm "Space Hopper"

Its diameter of 60cm is relatively small and geared towards children. The grooved handles provide a good grip, ensuring children's safety while playing. The pump has two outlets: one for blowing in blue and one for sucking in red. The red one allows you to empty the balloon of its air once you have emptied the largest one. This way you can fit the deflated balloon in a very small space/box.
