Q: I would like to order this machine . But is this good for helium quality ballons like does this machine make my balloons float in the air ?

submitted by Jamie F - 7 years ago
  • A: Yes. It works fine with "helium quality balloons." Does it make them float? Not unless you place them above it in the airstream to make them float. A gadget this size that's capable of nuclear fission for dispensing helium would be quite an accomplishment. Sadly, not in this century.

    submitted byfred - 7 years ago
  • A: This is an air pump. It fills the balloons with air not helium, so they won't float.

Q: Does this electric blow up balloon also tie the balloon? Or do we have to tie the balloons manually?

submitted by Cirious - 7 months ago

Q: Can it be used on balloon animal balloons?

submitted by Lena - 1 year ago
  • A: This is just a guess but it probably depends on the size of the blow hole

    submitted byMatt - 7 months ago

Q: How many balloons can I fill 12 inch balloons

submitted by Ann - 7 years ago
  • A: Unlimited. This is an electric pump that fills the balloons with air. There is no tank, so as long as you have electricity you can fill as many balloons as you want. It is a great time saver.

    submitted byDNiven - 6 years ago

Q: How noisy/loud is this machine?

submitted by JujuJewels - 7 years ago
  • A: It is about as noisy as a hand held vacuum.

    submitted byDNiven - 6 years ago

Q: Is this balloon tank a helium tank?

submitted by Samad Q - 7 years ago
  • A: It is not a tank, it is an air pump. It fills the balloon with air not helium.

    submitted byDNiven - 6 years ago

Q: Will this work with mylar/ orbz balloons?

submitted by mowanalee - 7 years ago
  • A: The instruction sheet says not to, but I don't see any reason why not. I suppose because mylar self-sealing valves can be flimsy.

    submitted byfred - 7 years ago

Q: Does this machine just blow them up or will thy also help them to stay up floating

submitted by Linda - 8 years ago
  • A: This blows up latex balloons with air, not helium. Saved me a TON of time blowing up balloons for my son's birthday party last week. Love it!

    submitted byMattnRae - 8 years ago

Q: Is this a helium tank or just blows balloons with regular air?

submitted by Question - 8 years ago
  • A: This only inflates with air, not helium. That being said, it saved me a TON of time not having to blow up balloons by mouth for my son's birthday party!

Q: Does it need batteries?

Excellent but loud

Very easy to use & fills balloons quickly! Also comes with an attachment so you can easily fill skinnier balloons. Used this after my kids went to bed & had to fill balloons in the closet because the little machine is very loud. Overall, great purchase & will be used for many more celebrations.

Awesome

I've owned a few ballon inflators, and this is by far the best. I love that it suctions to a flat surface and only pumps when pushed on. It blows up balloons super fast and wasn't as loud as some other pumps I've used in the past. Love this machine!

must for decorating!

it did start to get pretty warm after about 10 balloons, but not to the point of overheating like some mentioned. super easy to use, like literally fool proof. helped so much for setting up my boyfriends birthday decorations. i blew up like 60 balloons in just about 20 minutes. would’ve most definitely passed the heck out without this. and i can re use it for my baby shower coming up. i’ll never regret this $15

Just buy it already

Compact size but very powerful. Very noisy but my kids slept through it, so no complaints. Wish I would have invested in this earlier.
