Buy Pair of EMPTY Cone Poi  
26th January, 2024
Good enough
"In December I ordered 5 pairs for teaching others. Unfortunately, 3 of the 10 are an inch shorter than the rest, and on the other 7 the inside seams are not overlocked, the hem is left loose and is already fraying. I ordered a pair of these over a decade ago, they've lasted me very well. The 'invisible' velcro seal, sturdy non-stretchy fabric and loops were major selling points to me. The construction seems otherwise the same standard, though these newer ones have slightly wider handles which is no problem at all. Unfortunately I'm concerned that this lack of quality control also suggests a general decline in quality overall. Where else are corners being cut?"

Buy Single Pro Lumi TrickStix - Rechargeable LED Devilstick  
17th September, 2023
good but not great
"I purchased the LED rechargeable devil stick set. The control sticks are just a shaft of plastic and not very usable. The Devilstick is kind of thick, but the LED is very cool. The only problem is that within a week of playing with these, the silicone flower part started coming apart. When I reached out to HomeofPoi, the response was use some double sided tape and see if that works with no offer to repair or replace it. Since then, the end cap that holds the LED cartridge has torn, so I have to tape the end up every time I recharge the LED cartridge. All that said, I can't find any LED devilsticks at a comparable price point, and these are still very fun to play with as devisticks and for twirling. I highly recommend the rechargeable ones over the battery ones if you can get them."

Not what I expected.
"I bought these to put on the end of my staff for more effect while spinning in the day. They work... But are much heavier than I expected. It really slows down the staff and makes it hard to spin. On their own they are again... Just Ok. Not much different than my poi but the flapping is distracting."

Buy Pair of Pro Extra Large Cathedral Fire Poi  
7th October, 2020
Multiple wicks with multiple thoughts
"These Poi were everything I expected. Visually stunning especially used with different colour flames. However they can be difficult to spin and may limit your moves due to the weighting of the heads. With these points considered there is every reason to get your hands on a set of these babies if only to play with on the odd occasion!"

Screws bad design
"The clubs arrived amazingly quickly to California in the Us and really like the design until I started juggling them, all in all the reflector, weight and clubs themself are great but below the wick where there are 3 screws are quite a faulty design, after only a couple light drops 3 very tiny short screws had came out by themselves, I ve seen other fire clubs that don t have this design and no screws. Maybe deeper screws would be a better design or something entirely different. I ended up using a sturdy screw glue to try and prevent them from Popping out again..."

I'm fairly new to flow and don't know that many tricks but it's a good time. I think the people who watch me like the wand even more than me."

Sub par
"Loving the staff and the spinning. Good points: - weight of the staff is nicely balanced - clip system of the 3 part staff is clever - most of the materials are well made. Issues: - the first screw at either end of each wick has easily snapped, which is disappointing, didn't take long to loose those. - the centre grip tape is peeling already, but has been well used, somewhat expected"

I wonder if quality consistency is steady or not. We are happy for the replacement, however it won't last forever.

Buy Single Juggle Dream - Fire Flower Devil Sticks with Handsticks  
14th November, 2019
Great construction and value, fast shipment. Design is okay but could be better IMO.
"I've been playing with flower sticks for a long time but this is my first fire prop. I've been practicing quite a bit with them over my normal (non-fire) flower sticks. Took some getting used to as the tassels are closer together than I'm accustomed, but the overall length feels correct which keeps it out of my face. Pros: They are well made with quality material, have good balance, and have been able to take impacts without destroying the wicks. Tassels show good signs of being able to take the heat, but I've only burned them twice so far. Cons: I wish all 3 of the sticks had a larger diameter. Sometimes the axial spin on the flower stick gets out of control causing you to lose stickieness and I think having a larger diameter shaft would correct that. It would also take the springieness out a bit as it tends to bounce if you catch it in the center and increased surface area would dissipate heat faster. If the hand sticks were a bit thicker it would feel more comfortable too"

"Very bright LED pois, good colours and effects, nice size and weight. But - they don't last that long once charged. Also they don't hold the charge when not used, they are flat after a few days after fully charged. So they need to be charged right before intended use."

Buy Pair of Medium Lotus Fire Fans 2inch Wick Kit - Make Your Own  
28th August, 2019
Thinner needles?
"I am SO excited to try out my new fire fans. I wanted to save money so I got the fans that needed to be assembled at home. The video on the HOP website looked very straight forward, and I love sewing, so I didn't think it would be so hard. When I got the fans and started sewing the wicks on, it took FOREVER. I think the needles provided were much larger and thicker than the ones in the video. They did not go through the wicks easily and I had to REALLY PUSH AND TUG on them to get the needle through. Because of this, I have only sewn on 2 of the 10 wicks. :( I'll get there eventually.... I'm still excited."

Reply from Home of Poi: "Support provided: The needles we send with the parcels are thinner than the needles we use as the thinner ones are more comfortable to push through. We do use rubber Thimbles in-store due to having to stitch so many this does help grip the needle. Also if your wicks are wrapped to tight this also makes them solid and hard to stitch through. You could try loosening them off a bit and once you have finished stitching them twist bit tighter."

Maybe not a great purchase for your first fans
"These puppies burn HOT. Like... knuckles are burning for the first minute of burn time. I bought them for my girlfriend and she's not to keen for them. I will say for the price, they are worth it... but if you're serious about getting into fans and fire, just spend the money on something a little better. Sewing the wicks on was a breeze, I suggest using something to dry your hands out to handle the needle work. I used chalk for rock climbing."
