Disappointed, print is on one side only
"As the title says, I'm disappointed in this, as only one side is printed. Many tricks show both sides of the star so having a black side can make it look plain. The build quality is good but the fabric is a bit slippery compared to others. It's ok for practice so I'm not giving it 1 star, but I'd recommend buying other brand and checking that both sides have a design showing."

Fire Swords
"I purchased 2 swords which I love they are extremely lightweight from the previous ones which were heavy. My only disappointment is the carry bags they come with do not fit the swords length. I am not happy about that."

Reply from Home of Poi: "Thank you for your review and for supporting our businessβitβs highly appreciated! Regarding the bag fit for the sword, to ensure it fits properly, youβre not supposed to strap and close the buckle. Doing so makes the bag smaller compared to the swordβs length."

Arrived after gig
"Hat looks good quality material but shipping took much longer than expected and - unfortunately - arrived after the gig I purchased it for (17 days after purchasing). Sizing feels tighter than other 58cm juggling hats I have (also Juggle Dream), so it may not land on my head as easily for tricks. I'd size up if you're debating between sizes. I was also concerned since the package arrived in a bag without anything protecting it and could feel the hat had been deformed during shipping. It came slightly beat up but got the shape mostly back - a few slight dents still. Other companies I've purchased from send it in a box with a protector inside to maintain the hat's shape during shipping."

We recommend that our Canadian customers select express shipping for faster delivery. Additionally, we have upgraded our packaging for this hat and now use a box for shipping to ensure better protection. Apologies for any inconvenience this may have caused."

Never had an issue. Great communication
"Not had a problem with any items ordered and purchased. They are what they say they are and the quality has never been bad or poor. Any issues I have had I contacted the teams and it was sorted quickly, professionally and efficiently. You can't please everyone all the time but so far I have no complaints"

Great Tools, a lot of chemicals
"Everything regarding shipping, overall Quality and shipping time was awesome. Only 1 of the 20 pairs of poi had a small sewing-issue at the velcros, where the velcros came off partially while opening. Only optimization point: - a heavy chemical smell from all 3 components: the carry bag, the cone, as well as the balls for filling the poi. The fabric probably is not an eco-friendly organic cotton. There is some room for ecological improvement. Would recommend ordering at your shop if these points are integrated. Thanks a lot, anyways!"

Regarding the concerns you mentioned about the chemical smell and the eco-friendliness of the materials, Iβd like to share some details about our products. The poi weight balls are made from a soft shell fabric, and the inner filling is 100% recycled rubber, sourced from materials like used tires. The carry bag is sublimated to give it a fancy look. We understand the importance of ecological responsibility, and weβre continuously exploring ways to improve the environmental friendliness of our products. Your feedback is invaluable in helping us make these advancements."

These are great!!
"I bought the 2in fire fan wick replacement kit from homeofpoi. First of all, as a kit, it was much cheaper than buying just the wicks and then having to hunt down the curved needles elsewhere. It came with the nicely pre-cut wick strips, 2 needles and the Kevlar thread. I watched a YouTube video on how to wrap the strips around my lotus fans and for advice on how to sew them on. Super easy! I am very happy with the materials, homeofpois communication, the speediness of shipping, and my new fans! Yay! Thank you so much; will definitely buy this again in the future when my fans need another re-wick. :)"

Caps need double-sided tape
"Bought as replacements for my first led set as something broke in the switch and light would not stay on or respond to remote unless continually depressed. Replacements match up perfectly, but the end caps did not come with any tape to keep them in place and they slip off easily. Tube will slip out mid-performance if cap gets knocked off with contact on anything. Caps on switch ends also can't be pushed all the way down or switch will not come back out far enough to turn off manually."

"The shipping is an absolute nightmare.. I made my order on June 16th and am now arguing with home of poi and Canada post to see where it is on July 30th. I'm pretty sure I just wasted $160 ($40 duty+ cost of item) and am not happy at all. The customer service here went downhill big time!"
