Your advertised rubberband ball! I remember when these first came out. This is exactly how I remember them. It's not too big, not too small and has no smell (well, a very faint rubber smell I suppose). Nothing abnormal.

My first use was wrapping a heavy extension cord. I wrapped the rubberband around the cord twice - no problem! I gave it a pretty good pull too.

I'm quite happy with the purchase. I've read some of these rubberband balls can have a strong odor or have rubberbands too thin/thick.

This works perfect for the everyday use. I think if you're looking for your everyday "office" rubberbands - make this purchase!

When you buy something on Amazon, you want to feel worthy to feel worthy to have purchased it.
You want to feel like you can achieve great things.
You want it to make you feel courageous in life.
You want it to make you feel like you are more than enough.
You want it to make you feel blessed and thankful;
To make you focus on the good and laugh;
To stand up tall, like a warrior.
You want it to make you seek out strange new worlds and mindsets.
While this purchase does not achieve any of those sentiments, it does the job and I'm happy!

I love these rubber band balls and will continue to buy them.

The only issue I have is when you're about 3/4 finished with the ball, the bands all sort of fall apart and no longer a ball. I realize it's technically hard to manufacture and spin the smaller portion of the ball, but believe I had about 75 or more rubber bands that fell apart.

That said - I just purchased 2 more and even with that issue (or maybe some balls are made differently) I find it worth it.

Positives Love:
You can find the rubber bands easily on your desk.
Best attribute: Keeps things neat
Easy to remove a band to use.
The quality of the bands - very good.
Amazonprime price point at about five dollars is the best price I've found so far.

TBD: Are some brands better than others?
This is the only brand I've used or bought because of the quantity of bands per ball.
It appears to be the largest or the most bands per ball I've found so far.

It's about the size of a small baseball or between a tennis ball and baseball, or the size of an orange. I wouldn't mind finding one slightly bigger as I ran through the rubber bands quickly. (At least the ones that stayed on the ball, before it sort of fell apart near the core.)

I also wouldn't mind a rubber band ball that had slightly bigger bands, say the size the mailman typically uses.
But, these are good quality, and I haven't had one break on me yet. These won't fit around file folders very well. They are a little bit too small, and your papers would end up bending the papers or a couple of file folders into themselves. You can use them around small boxes (say jewelry or watch boxes and a bit larger) or several medicine bottles, handful or more of staple boxes, or banding together several rolls of wrapping paper. Many uses!

And it's fun to play with....if you're into a game of toss with an officemate. Perhaps someone could weave a goal basket out of paper clips or binder clips to throw the ball through, but would probably result in a tangled mess, and too time consuming if you actually use those paperclips.

I'll be purchasing again when I run out.

If you haven't had one of these... you're missing out. Instead of a container or drawer full of loose rubber bands - you have an easy to use 'ball' of rubber bands. It's brilliant. I purchased one about 4 years ago.. just ran out - so this is a replacement. Perfect.

It's Pitiful That A Person Has to Buy Rubber Bands Via the Internet

What a strange world. None of the local stores have rubber bands for sale in their school or office supplies selections. It just seems like buyers shouldn't have to use the Internet to buy such a basic item, but we do.
Soon, we will only shop via the Internet. And of course, this ACCO Rubber Band Ball is a life saver. The different colors also make it possible to use different colors to mark and identify different items such as different checking account books.
