Great Pool Volleyball Jul 18, 2010
By Jon I read some reviews on here saying things like if you hit the ball hard it will go flying across the beach and it's a junky supermarket quality rubber ball with a padded cover. These are very unfair comments, it does just what it says in the description. If you're looking for a hard official regulation volleyball, look elsewhere this isn't your product. I bought it strictly for pool volleyball. It is great, it doesn't get any better than this. It clearly says waterproof and great for the pool right on it. I don't think many of the low rating people actually read the product description. I didn't buy this expecting to get a regulation volleyball because you do not want to play pool volleyball with a regulation ball, do you know how uncomfortable that would be? In fact, if I'm playing 1on1 or 2on2 I will not even use this ball I go for a lighter one, I use this one for larger groups. This is a waterproof, no sting volleyball. Yes, it is a little lighter than a regulation ball and made of different materials. It is not light like the balls you buy in the supermarket like someone suggested. It is much heavier and higher quality than them. For those of you that may not know, this is a brand that the professionals use. I play pool volleyball almost every day and this is my go to ball. I couldn't picture anything better. If I was going to play volleyball in the grass, beach/sand, or gym I would obviously not use a pool volleyball just like I wouldn't use a football to play basketball. Bottom line is, if you are looking for a regulation ball to play actual volleyball with, this isn't the ball for you. If you're looking for either a pool volleyball or something lighter to just casually hit around with no sting, this is the perfect ball for you. The only thing that I was upset about is after ordering it on Amazon for $20.00 I found it on Mikasa's direct website for $15.00.

Satisfying purchase. Jul 21, 2008

I've been looking for a volleyball for a while. To be specific, I wanted one that I could use at the beach that does not bruise your wrists.
Note: I play volleyball for purely (amateur) recreational reasons and this one was definitely something that fit into my needs.
Pros (+) and Cons (-): 1. Does not cause welts on wrists. (+) 2. Someone mentioned that this was a plastic child's ball, this is partly true. The Squish volleyball is pretty much one of those plastic handballs in a foamy volleyball disguise. I think it was designed for pool usage. Read: Not a real volleyball. (-) 3. The red/white/blue design is very attractive. (+) 4. Too bouncy and light. It will literally fly over half the beach if you hit it hard enough. Again, not a real volleyball. (-)
I like it.

Volleyball Oct 20, 2007
By Ellen Flaming I ordered 8 pillow covered volleyballs. My students played with them on Friday and LOVED them. They were able to hit the ball without stinging their arms. Great product. The volleyballs arrived quickly, although they were overpackaged. Each one came in its own box.

This is NOT a volleyball Sep 17, 2007
By Gerald This is just a plastic ball. The kind they sell in supermarkets for little kids. If you're looking for a soft volleyball, look elsewhere.

Love this volleyball! Mar 24, 2011
By Pink Rattie I don't understand all of the negative reviews. I love this volleyball! This is ment for fun family or casual recreational play. Yes, it's not the volleyball of the olympics, but that's not what I wanted. I wanted a volleyball that we could play with for hours without getting red whelts on our wrists. Score! Some of the reviews on this pattern and others had me concerned that it would feel like hitting my son's rubber bouncy ball. Not at all. Feels like hitting a regular volleyball but with less pain. As a non professional but recreational volleyball player, I recommend this ball for fun casual play.
