 Great rockets, cheaply made, inferior pumpApr 15, 2006
By AverageJoe
I had water rockets like this when I was a kid in the early 1970s. The rockets were no different from the ones that come in this package. They shoot high and straight and are loads of fun.
My only gripe is with the pump.
When I was a kid, the pump was heavy plastic and metal. The pump on these new rockets is cheap plastic. The knob on the end broke off the first or second day. My son and I are still able to shoot the rockets, but we have to carefully stick the knob back on each time we want to pump up a rocket.

 Major disappintmentJun 24, 2010
By Keith A. Riecke
"Rickles"
I was hoping this would be just like the ones I had when I was a kid 35 years ago. Those would go 50+ feet easily. This is horrible. I had this big build-up to show my kids how it works right out of the package. I warned them to "stand back" and "I don't want you to get hurt". What a let down. The thing went about 3 fee up and fizzled. The highest I think I ever got it in many tries was maybe 10-12 feet. This is absolute junk. I'm glad it didn't taint my childhood memories of the working water rockets. Don't buy this. You will be disappointed.

leaked too muchJan 25, 2010
By David A. French
"Cmrcl. Refrig."
Wouldn't go over 5 feet most trips and only the fist attempt made it to 10 feet. I think something in the pump has too much leakage. I later read the instructions and it said to use oil and I still haven't tried that but we have lost interest and have left it outside to rot in the dirt.

low quality, low performanceAug 21, 2009
By TRM
I had similar water rockets as a kid, which were fun, flew over 50 ft. high, and lasted for my kids to see them fly a few more times. These new ones meet none of those goals. They barely get up in the air a few feet. The pump handle end came off in my hand on the third flight. And the kids (and dad) were unimpressed.

By Thomas F. Martin
This product is no way close to the water rockets I had growing up 40 years ago! It climbs to a wopping 6-8 feet! A big dissapointment
