Title: Pinata Date: September 6, 2009
"The looks of the pinata were great, but when it came to whack it the ring supporting it feel of at the 2nd whack, so we ran the rope between 2 holes in the top and after 2 more whacks the seam on the side broke and all the candy feel out. I only had 8 guests and only 2 got to get a shot at the pinata. we were all very disapointed. the pinata is not built very tough at all, seams like the side was just glued to the front and back and had no reinforcment at all and for the ring to hang it had not extra support built into it. basicly this was a weak pinata. i would not buy it again"

Title: Worked Great! Date: November 7, 2009
"This pinata worked great, but you have to follow the directions. This is NOT a pinata that you hit with a stick! This is a PULL STRING pinata. My husband held it at arms length inside the house. We had a small party and my daughter's friends got several turns pulling strings. It got down to the last string which her sister pulled with her help. It opened and everyone scrambled for the candy. It was FUN and I was thrilled with it. This is a large pinata and it will hold lots of candy and goodies. Again, DO NOT HIT THIS WITH A STICK and you won't be disappointed! Pull away and have fun!"

"We haven't filled the pinata yet, but it is very large. Great size. The colors are great, very bright. The one I received doesn't indicate which string is the "magic string" though. I know my son will LOVE IT!!"

Title: Highly Recommended Date: August 24, 2009
"Very nice purchase! Would highly recommend. This one has strings (only one of which is attached to the trap door) so there is no need for a "stick" to whack it open and hurt anyone! Every one grabbed a string and all pulled at the same time, which didn't work by the way. The trap door did come open a little, so we just pulled it open the rest of the way and the candy and toys just fell out. Was very roomy for lots of stuff. We did put in some items that were larger than the "fill hole" but we just tore it open a little more, put the stuff in, and then pushed it shut. No one could tell. The trap door at the bottom was large enough for everything to fall out."

Title: Kids loved Mario! Date: August 12, 2009
"My son is just crazy about Mario, so this pinata was just great. Although, I must mention that the kids pulled all the strings and did not open the trap door. My husband just ripped open the bottom himself at the end. I guess it turned out all right, because then all of the party-goers got a chance to pull a ribbon before it opened :)"

Title: Very Large but didn't bust with strings Date: August 3, 2009
"This pinata is very large! Holds a whole lot of goodies but after pulling all the strings there was only a small hole, not even large enough for anything to fall out. We had to end up ripping it open."

"Okay so it's not the best when it comes to staying up but it looks great! Picture is only on one side but really bright colors....But hole for filling is at the bottom! Had to tape it shut which was NOT cool. Plus tie for holding up was VERY weak so had to tie rope to hold it up. If you remember to address these prob. before getting ready to hit it you will be fine."

Title: Pinata Date: July 22, 2009
"the product looks great and it was easy to add the candy. ONly problem is the hangar (zip tie) broke while the children tried to hit it to break it open. That kind of spoiled the event. We had to make a make shift hangar and everyone had to wait while we did it! Kind of frustrating and we only filled it half full of candy, so it won't hold very much without breaking."

Title: Mario Pinata Date: July 20, 2009
"The first pinata we ordered arrived damaged, so they sent out another. The pinata is disappointing because the picture is only on one side, and it spins while you are holding it up in the air. Also, we had a 5 year old take a swing at it, and the plastic holder on the top fell right off. Not well made."

"This pull string Pinata actually worked!! One kid had the correct string, and when they pulled it, out came all the candy. The only thing I wished was that the Mario Photo had been on both sides. But not a big deal. The kids loved it. It was easy to fill with candy too."

Title: Very Good Value Date: July 14, 2009
"This was a very good price and I was able to fit tons of candy in it.
Also it was very hard for me to find Mario things for the party and I'm so glad that Celebrate Express did have Mario stuff because I would have had to change the party theme.
