What people say
It is really good. The children enjoy it as well. The instructions for building it weren't the best but our team managed it.
The kids like it however the durability and its stand alone quality is concerning for teachers and therapists that use it with students. It does tip over a bit when some students attempt to squeeze through. Just starting with this product we will see how it holds up over the next year.
The squeeze machine is great and made from durable materials. Unfortunately, my grandson would not use it and we had to send it back. Barb and Special Needs Toys were great to work with. I will definitely look for other items to purchase from there.
Very good at providing appropriate deep pressure for my autistic child.
It’s great my son loves it
Hi! I bought this for my nephew who has autism. It was for his birthday. He loves it! Thank you!
Great product once you finally put it together but the instructions are terrible. Really poorly written and the diagrams aren’t much better.
Good product, good price. Quick and efficient delivery service.
