I got this item for my son's 9th birthday. The important thing to consider with this item is that both the ball and glove look and feel cheap, the fake leather being low quality and not well assembled over the light up ball.
However, my child is 9. He does not notice or care about quality control and likely wouldn't notice the difference between this item and one of the highest quality. He does notice, however, the ability to play catch at twilight while getting an extra does of dopamine from the fun and adjustable lights this ball provides.
I appreciate that it uses a standard USB c charger. This is very convenient as this type of charger is already strategically placed throughout the home and we do not have to worry about storing or locating an alternative charger just for this.
If I had realized the quality of the product, I would have ordered the ball on its own. I got the set with the glove despite my son already having one so he could have a back up or spare for a friend. But with the cheap look and feel I wouldnt purchase it again. Luckily, my 9 year old didn't notice or care and loved this gift.
