NOTHING LIKE IT! Its not a new remote control car, blaster, or building set. This toy truly is brand new. Brilliant idea!

EASY FOR EVERYONE I have bought 5 of these now for kids ages 6, 7, 9, 10, and 13. They all loved them and, better still, they can all do them on their own, great videos available to learn tricks too. Great Easter basket item :). get one for the dog too because string is irresistible to pets too!

Ultimate conversation piece I always start with "I'm going to show you something you've never seen in your life". Everyone loves it. I've shown it to at least 60 people. Doctors, lawyers, the police, housewives, kids, moms, dads, a 92-year-old man. Everyone loves it (except for my cat). Big fun. A great conversation piece.

MAKE SURE EVERYONE HAS ONE! We LOVE our ZipStrings!!! Had to buy 3 so my kids wouldn’t fight over time. Ha ha!
— Heather B.
Endless Fun We gave our two grandchildren (ages 8 and 10) Zip String for Christmas and they are thoroughly enjoying it! They continue to come up with different tricks and challenges! It is providing lots of fun, in addition to some strong thoughts and challenges!
"I've been part of the team that reviews toys at Good Housekeeping since 2018, and one of the best parts of the process is when we get to host kids upstairs in the Good Housekeeping Institute Labs for in-person toy testing.
I never would have guessed that kids would be so impressed by a piece of string."

Overall rating: 4.8 / 5 from 4900 reviews.
Works great, once it was noticed there is an on/off switch AND a light switch for “glowing” the string.
Amazing product and customer service. Aracna has been a great joy for my son. He has done many tricks and has shown all his school friends. Thank you very much!
I love this!!! My daughter is going to be so surprised when I give her this for her Spider-Man costume! It works just as shown, is easy to operate and charge, and was shipped quickly!!!
Really great gadget, my one comment would be the battery life and tendency for knots, but that does improve with experience. Otherwise the kids have LOVED it. Would love if they came in different colors.
My son kept seeing ads for the Arachnid by ZipString and really wanted one, so I bought it for his 9th birthday along with the original ZipString. I thought I was buying a toy for him… turns out I bought a toy for the whole family!
It does take a few minutes to figure out how to hold it and manipulate the string, but once you get the hang of it, it’s seriously mesmerizing. We all keep picking it up to “try one more time.” Definitely one of those toys that’s just as fun for the adults as it is for the kids!
Such a fun birthday gift and a nice break from screens. We’re having a blast with both!
With all the toys and gifts my 8 year old cousin received- they said this was the most used and fun thing. Everyone including the adults was enjoying it
