Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons
The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

The 3 year old goes back and plays alone while * is in kindergarden. This is a great toy and it really does entertain little ones when they’re stuck indoors.



Cons

The smell is disgusting. Very chemically. If you handle it in big clumps it somewhat stays in place, but not really. Ours is very dry and does not stick together at all.

Very disappointed. Very dissapointing. I only wish it lived up to its description.

The description says beach sand 2lb. It flips on to the table and the floor just as easily as ordinary sand. I'm not obsessive about my floors--i read reviews before i purchased that complained of mess and i scoffed--sure, it's sand!

I think brookstone's sand (with two dots over the a, too bad brookstone went out of business) was a faaar superior product. Coolsand and especially kinetic sand feel like cheap knockoffs.

Quality


Lasts long and is great for fun play with the kiddos or stress relief.


Have spent hours and hours relaxing with the sand!


I also bought this additional sand because what came with the set was small amount.

Price


We love it and came back for more but then realized the price went up over $5 in just a few months.

Packaging/appearance


It does scratch surfaces, so we play with it on old cookie sheets with a towel under the cookie sheet.

Competitiveness


Competitors offer for a more reasonable price.

    Some moms might not want toys that are messy


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Sometimes it does soften up a lot so i just put it back in an air tight container and wait until i need it again


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The only kinetic sand i could find in my local stores was the kinetic “beach sand“ which is a “limited edition” product and is not the same as the original kinetic sand


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    It only says “limited edition” on the back of the bag so i ended up buying it not realizing it was different than what comes in the kinetic sandcastle toy


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The cool sand sucks and is very hard like a brick and you cant even play with it
