Highlighted Reviews

β€” Diane

"Due to shoulder injury I am unable to throw a ball, this makes it easier for me to get him exercise."

β€” PurchasedMarch2022

"The new Chukit design does not work as well as the old design. The plastic seems to be cheaper and harder and doesn’t have the flex needed to sling the ball like the old ones. The β€œtennis-like” balls also deteriorate extremely fast. One ball lasted less than a week, compared to a regular used ..."

Bottom Line

Considered good. It allows for a good throwing motion and locks into various toys. The durability of the orange balls is a problem. Some people say they don't last and the rubber ones don’t float.
