HouseHoops Basketball - Size 6 - Soft Indoor Basketball with Realistic Feel and Bounce

So much fun for indoor play

Love it! Buying another one!

Both my son and daughter love the basketball!

Its GREAT!

I grabbed the Safe Sport Gear HouseHoops Basketball so my niece and nephew could practice dribbling without making a bunch of noise. The ball ships low on air but inflates with any standard needle pump… two quick bursts and it rounds out instantly. That alone beat the foam indoor balls we tried last year… those sponge cubes stayed dented for hours after a hard pass and felt like lobbing a loaf of bread. This HouseHoops sphere pops right back to perfect, so we can launch a game the moment the valve cap clicks.Weight runs lighter than a regulation outdoor ball, which keeps lamps safe and small arms happy. Still, the pebble texture gives real grip, and the bounce has just enough pop to mimic the driveway feel without the thud that rattles picture frames. My niece pointed out she can finally practice proper dribbles instead of chasing foam blobs that skid off at random angles.Surface safety is the clincher. We have tested on hardwood, tile, and painted drywall… not a single scuff or streak. The softer shell absorbs impact so rebounds stay gentle, yet the ball keeps its shape round after round. Even during an accidental face block—thanks, nephew—it felt more like a firm pillow tap than a rubber smack.Minor note: because it is lighter, full-force outdoor shooters need to ease up indoors or the ball sails. The kids adjusted after a few shots… softer flicks now drop clean from ten feet. For indoor practice that trade-off is worth it.Overall, HouseHoops nails the sweet spot between safety and authentic feel. No spongey collapse, no shape memory delay, and zero wall damage. Five stars… my living room MVP.──────── RATING LEGEND────────⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5 Stars = Nailed it… exactly as advertised or even better⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4 Stars = Solid… but something’s off, mis-represented, or overpriced⭐⭐⭐ 3 Stars = Meh… not terrible, but not worth the money or time⭐⭐ 2 Stars = Yikes… functional but major issues, buyer beware⭐ 1 Star = Absolute trash… should not exist
