ABSOLUTE JUNK! Ruined our baby celebration. Wish I could give 0 stars!
I bought this mini helium tank for my baby’s celebration party, and it has been an absolute nightmare. The first tank I bought yesterday didn't work AT ALL this morning. With the party starting in just a few hours, my wife rushed back to the store to return it and buy a different brand. However, the store staff was incredibly mean and forced her into a strict exchange only. To ensure the new one actually worked, she even brought a balloon to test it in the store. It worked for that one test balloon, so she hurried back home. But guess what? After inflating just 3 small balloons at home, the tank ran COMPLETELY EMPTY! The packaging blatantly lies, claiming it "inflates up to 20 9'' latex balloons." Getting 3 balloons out of a tank is an absolute joke and a total scam. Because of this garbage product and terrible store service, our party preparations were rushed, chaotic, and all the balloons we bought went to waste. Do not risk your special events with this unreliable junk. AVOID AT ALL COSTS!

$30.99 for Only 12 Balloons? Very Disappointed
I purchased the Balloon Time Mini Helium Tank for $30.99 and was extremely disappointed. The packaging and marketing make it seem like you’ll get enough helium for a decent number of balloons, but I only inflated 12 standard balloons before the tank was completely empty. For the price, I expected much better value. Spending over $30 for just 12 balloons works out to more than $2.50 per balloon, which is ridiculous. If you’re planning a party or event, don’t expect this tank to go very far. The product simply doesn’t deliver enough helium to justify the cost. I would not purchase this again and would not recommend it to anyone looking for an affordable helium solution. Pros: Easy to use. Cons: • Runs out very quickly • Poor value for the price • Inflates far fewer balloons than expected • Not worth $30.99 Save your money and look for a better option. This product left me frustrated and disappointed.

Waiste of money!!!
Absolutely do not recommend!! -It says it’s supposed to fill up to 20 balloons 9 inch. It barely filled 12. -Eight hours later half of them were deflated!! The balloons were for my son’s graduation party and we couldn’t use half of them and no time to get new ones. Absolute rip off!! Stay away from this product!!!

Perfect 👌
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product is really good. Works well. I was about to fill like approx 50 balloons. Nozzle was appropriate in size. Easy to handle and operate.

TRASH!!! DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY!
I wish I could give this zero stars! For $30 I was able to fill six balloons. Six! Totally unacceptable.

Helium tank review
The messaging on this helium tank indicates that it can fill up 20 balloons. My experience with this product was frustrating. I was only able to fill up 12 small to medium size balloons before the tank ran out. I do not recommend this product for the price. Target was also on willing online to help me with a return, I would consider this a faulty product.

Great little tank
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The tank is compact so storing isn’t an issue. It was easy to operate and filled the balloons easily. We were able to fill a total of 25 balloons since they were on the smaller side.

Not worth the money
Did not fill up 20 balloons as advertised. Only got to 12 before it ran out and the balloons started deflating/ falling within an hour or two. Stars are given for convenience and ease of use.

Didn't fill enough balloons...
Says 20 balloons, but we only got to nine small ones before it completely ran out and two of the balloons didn't float at all. We are aware of all the sizing requirements and making sure the balloons are helium ones and it still didn't fill the designated amount. Not a great value. I wanted to love this since Party City closed down where I live, but I am going to attempt to return. On the plus side, the ones it did fill lasted a long time.

Thanks for your feedback—we’re sorry to hear you didn’t get as many balloons inflated as expected. Our Mini Tank is designed for the “Mini Moments” to fill approximately 20 nine-inch latex balloons. However, many latex balloons sold today are 11” or 12" in size, and larger balloons require more helium to fill. Our Mini tank will fill up to nine 12” balloons. If you need more balloons, we recommend our Medium or Jumbo tank. Have more questions? We’re happy to help at balloontime@wthg.com!

Faulty/Empty tank
Didn’t work, I even broke the black rubber until we realized that it arrived empty. And since we can’t return it, it was money wasted

Portable, Easy to Use, Helium Tank!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] 11/10! This helium tank was so handy and very easily portable. The balloon was easy to stick onto the nozzle and air didn’t escape when I was blowing up my balloons. I can’t wait to use this again

EASY TO USE!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Super easy to use! We blew up a bunch of balloons for a party! The packaging was fun, it felt safe to use and there was minimal steps to get it going. Must have for future parties!

It did not work for me
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’m not sure if there is an issue with the tank I received but my mine did not cause any of the balloons I inflated to float. It did put air in the balloons but once I released the balloons floated to the ground. I only blew 3 balloons. One popped and the others aren’t floating. So unfortunately I do not find this tank to be worth it.

Great in a pinch!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’m impressed with this mini helium tank from Balloon Time. The product was super easy to use with the top being easy to hold the balloon as it was filling. It was super quick to fill the balloons, which stayed floating for about a day or so, making this super easy to use for an afternoon graduation party. Overall, I found this product to be great for a quick and easy way to fill balloons for your upcoming party!
