Pros & Cons
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.
Highlights
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.

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

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

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