XMALL Wrist Gyro Ball, Torque Ball Hand Exerciser, Forearm Strengthener

74yo female with mild hand arthritis and desire to increase hand strength> This was awesome for the great price of $14. It was easier to wind up than the other brand I bought for more, and it also wants to gyro much more easily so I can get it into the mojo pretty easily. Its fun for a hand and forearm workout. This one without the RPM counter is fine because I am more concerned about how long it goes in a smoothe gyro run than about anything else. I like the way the lights flash when I have it going right. It weighs slightly less than the other which is good.

This turned out to be a good purchase but only after a few tries and misses. Once I practiced and watched a few YouTube videos on the technique, it was really easy to use. I used this hand exerciser to strengthen my hands, wrists and forearms. After a few days, I really noticed a difference with strength and flexibility. Definitely recommend.

I really wanted this to be the tool that helped me rebuild strength after my broken wrist. I wasn’t even using it every day, so I never imagined it would fall apart in just nine days. My physical therapist had shown me a similar style of exerciser, and when I found this one in an extra‑small size that actually fit my hands, I thought I’d lucked out. For the first week it worked smoothly and felt promising. Then on day nine, while simply trying to increase resistance, it snapped. No rough use, no over‑tightening — it just broke. I’m incredibly disappointed, especially because my wrists genuinely need reliable support right now.

The ball itself is very high quality and sturdy. I found it a little tough to get going, but I found that "winding it up" by pulling it back quickly on a hard surface, like a wind-up toy car, would get it going well. It is amazing how much "burn" you feel in your hands and forearms. After a couple weeks of continuous use, I can feel my hands getting stronger for sure. The forearms are strengthening a little more slowly, but it seems like its working. It is far more entertaining that I would have imagined! You find yourself fidgeting with it for a while, and getting exercise at the same time. Definitely a good addition to any workout.

Just started using it, but I feel the difference after just a couple days. Pro Tip: After the second day of use, I couldn’t wind the internal wheel—it just spun freely. I returned it and ordered another one, but the replacement failed the very next day with the same issue: the internal wheel offered no resistance. Frustrated, I initiated a return and started looking at other brands, but they all seemed to come from the same manufacturer. After thinking about it for a bit, I realized it didn’t make sense that these would be so fragile and still be on the market. I took another look. I discovered that if I kept spinning the wheel in the direction of the arrow—as if winding it—after a minute or two it would eventually catch and begin winding the spring again. Once it did, the device worked normally. I now suspect that if you let the internal wheel “spin out” after use instead of stopping it with your finger, you may need to spin it for a while to re-engage the mechanism. I canceled the second return and will update if the issue comes back or can’t be resolved.

Kinda of hard to get it to work. Takes practice I guess

A couple of minutes a day and my wrists are feeling better. The built in starter is a nice feature. Every now and then it doesn't catch but a swear word or two seems to fix it. The one I had 40 years ago had a plastic ribbon that I had to keep track of and wind up on the rotor as a rip cord starter. This new method is much easier. The wrist loop is a nice feature too. It can get a little difficult to keep my grip on the ball after a workout and the strap gives me some peace of mind in case I drop it. I saw some reviewers mention that it was hard to start or wasn't working for them but this hasn't been the case for me; mine is working great. The motion is gentle and slow, like swirling an ice cube in a glass that you're holding from the top. As the rotor picks up speed I just have to grip the ball tighter and tighter, I don't have to spin it faster. That said, it did take a bit more practice with my non- dominant hand, but just a bit. Slow and easy. It's a nice way to relax with a light show as a bonus. Like a fidget spinner but with strength benefits. I'm loving mine.

Fun little gizmo. This thing can really build up some torque. Using this will strengthen your grip and make your coordination better.

This item does not work as expected.

Very very good tool for strengthening your forearm. Very good quality, improve the strength and you can feel the exact burn in forearms. Worth it

Recebi o produto no prazo estipulado pela Amazon. O produto é de excelente qualidade e funciona perfeitamente. Porém a embalagem é diferente e não veio case. Mas por ser bom resolvi aceitar mesmo assim para evitar aborrecimento..

Satisfied with the product, it’s exactly what they described

I returned it. It didn't work for very long once activated; have to frequently re-activate. A stress ball might be adequate.
