GooToobz Originals - Squishy Sensory Tubes - Filled with Colorful Water, Glitter | Non-Toxic, No-Mess, Squeezable Fidget | Anxiety Relief - Triple Sensory Experience! (Glitter Gush Red)

I’m an autistic adult, and something of a connoisseur of tactile fidget toys. I particularly like squishy objects filled with liquid or gel, so this looked right up my alley. I really like that they give sensory ratings, as it helped me choose a style (though I still ordered 2 of the 3 colors, and came back for the 3rd as soon as I tried them). I’m sensitive to sound, and generally like silent fidgets, so I opted for the purple. I ordered the blue as well, cause it’s pretty. I justified it to myself because that had the highest tactile rating, but I didn’t really think the glitter would change the feel (it actually does, though!). I also didn’t expect the blue one to make more noise than the purple (I could see the green was designed for sound, but glitter in liquid is usually silent), but it actually does. Unexpectedly, though, not only does the sound not bother me, I actively like it! That’s why I came back for the green one (it hasn’t come yet, so I can’t comment on that one yet).I will say that when I’m actively squeezing the purple one, the liquid moves too fast through the tube to see any interesting patterns from the pearl powder. I find the blue one more visually engaging during active squeezing. However, if I move the purple liquid very gently, by lightly poking or tilting, it does look very cool. Overall, though, if I’m looking for visual input, I’d probably go with blue over purple. To me the big appeal of the purple one is that it’s SILENT.I assume these will break at some point. And when they do, it will be messy. That’s unavoidable with this type of toy. It’s just not possible to make something that’s flexible enough to squish liquid around through the skin but will never break. It seems reasonably well-made, and as durable as it can be without sacrificing flexibility. The material bends rather than stretching, so it’s likely to leak rather than burst, which is the less messy option for such things.

Don't waste your money. This literally only last my ten year old daughter one day before it started leaking and she is mild mannered compared to other children in her age range. Disappointing. She liked it for the short time she was able to play with it. I did contact customer support via their QR code, but have not heard from them and it has been a week so far.

Bought multiples as gifts. They aren't huge mats, they have glitter and tiny balls inside and you squeeze the sides so it goes back and forth. Weirdly satisfying when you need something to do with your hands. Can't beat the price when they're on sale either.

My autistic daughter loved this! But, it lasted for exactly one week before developing a leak. She is not hard on things, so I think it’s just not particularly well made. It’s really a shame too because it’s a great sensory fidget.

Great concept but started leaking after about 6 months. The edges need to be reinforced or something. Before it started leaking though it was very entertaining for my daughter. I liked that it was a “sensory play” product without the mess. The price is good but the quality isn’t very good if it isn’t going to last more than 6 months. The size was perfect for tiny hands, almost like the size of a video game controller. I’d considering buying again if they improved the materials and construction.

I love this. It's mesmerizing!!!

Threw it away, was afraid Autistic child would put how in the plastic and the liquid would spill out. Would not recommend this product for child or around pets. Not even 1 star

I loved it! I was handling it as gentle as possible and only used it for one day until leakage had occurred. I ended up throwing it away, but I’m still quite upset. :’)
