Nice concept, poor execution in desgn
My dog likes the soft, rubbery texture of this ball so the purchase isn't a loss. However, I was looking for a bit of a mental challenge and this does not fit the bill. The maze is somewhat easy and the opening is too large. It is very difficult to put treats of a correct size and not have them fall out quickly. Too small and they exit with one good roll, too large and you can't work it into the maze, which keeps it close the the insertion hole and where it readily exists. A smaller exit hole is needed. I would not suggest this ball to a fellow pet lover if they are seeking a challenge or mental stimulation for their animals.

Useless for treats
There is a giant (one inch) hole on one side of this toy. If you put treats in either side, they just pour right out the other end. Doesn't entertain our dog the slightest bit, just leaves a line of treats around the room. Take my advice and get a small rubber one with holes the size of dog treats. We got one that only lets one treat out at a time and doggo has to work for it. She loves that one.This product is a flimsy soft plastic beach ball with a giant hole on one end and pink uselessness inside. Don't buy

My dogs love it!!
So I’ve bought two of these for my Aussies- a light blue one and a purple one. I didn’t pay attention in the store when I first found them, but it seems like the light blue one is more dense and challenges my dogs more. The purple one seems to be lighter, which is perfect for my younger, softer mouthed dog. Is this really how Orbee designed them or is it just random with my two toys? I don’t know, but my dogs love them!! I can’t say anything about how they hold up with aggressive chewers, because neither of my dogs are.

A good addition to my collection of doggie puzzle games
I like how sturdy and durable this ball feels. I have only used it with my dog in a supervised manner, if you have a super chewer I wouldn't leave this alone with them. They might be able to tear off small pieces if they really really try. I found it pretty easy to stuff with a variety of hard and soft treats and also kibble. My dog is very food motivated so she loved the challenge. I wish it had taken her a bit longer to complete so this might be a good toy if you are just getting into brain/puzzle games with your dog. For reference I have a 1 yr/50 lb German Shorthair. I think really small dogs would find this too heavy and cumbersome unless they are a super determined personality, then the size might be a good added challenge.

Not safe, hard to clean, no puzzle to solve
I was recommended this brand online from Reddit and I’m honestly not sure why. This is one of the worst toys I’ve bought and it was also way too pricey for no reason. Aside from my dog not having a good time with this toy, which is not the manufacturers fault, you have to keep a CLOSE eye when your dog is playing with this. See my pic attached. I was terrified when I found this and luckily I don’t think he swallowed any pieces. That makes the toy useless if I have to watch my dog, I’m trying to have him entertain himself while I’m busy and there are plenty of safer toys to do that. Also when it comes to cleaning… I soaked it but wasn’t able to quite clean the inside, no brush or nothing gets through. The inside is a maze like design but you can’t see well therefore there’s no logic involved for the dog to solve aside for mindless pushing it around. Anyways. That’s $17 I won’t get back. I bought a rubber treat dispenser instead, for $8, that won’t shatter into sharp pieces.

Love ❤ it
The media could not be loaded. So far I'm loving this toy, and whats more so is my dog 🐕. He has been working on it for over an hour, there are still treats in it, and it is still all in one piece. Hopefully it holds up. I will update if anything changes.

Survived my Amstaff
My dog destroys every toy he has within hours and because this one has such a solid inner maze, he actually wasn’t able to get a good enough grip on it to bite through it because his teeth would hit the plastic inside. He did puncture it, but it didn’t damage the functionality of the toy. However, I should have known better than to leave him alone with it. He loved getting chased around the yard with it and actually enjoyed playing with the ball more than eating the treats inside, and would sniff them and run as they fell out, making sure I didn’t catch up to him to take the ball away. Unfortunately, because it had treats in it, and he’s a bone burier, I left him to play for a few minutes one day and he buried the whole ball. Now I have no idea where in our backyard it could possibly be. Hoping it will turn up again some day because it was lots of fun while it lasted.

Great for slower meals!
A very nice product. I have come to like it more as I have gotten more familiar with it. Initially, it arrived looking as bright and attractive as it is pictured, and smelling so minty I wondered why my dog wasn't repulsed by the intense smell. Over time, it has become more dull in appearance and has gradually lost that strange minty smell.One of the things that can be a problem (from my perspective) is the rate at which it spits out kibble, too quickly in my mind. I've realized over time that rotating the internal maze so that it lines up with the outer hole in different ways can be helpful for changing flow rate. Another small issue is that it isn't the easiest in terms of getting kibble in, so when I'm in a hurry it can be a little frustrating. However, this has the best capacity that I have run into so far - I can easily get a cup of kibble in, sometimes more. Also, it cleans up well in the dishwasher, and dries out after a few hours.I would definitely recommend for those looking to make meals more entertaining.

Good value
If your dog likes to chew toys then this is not suitable unless you keep a watch on them using it - it’s rubbery and wouldn’t last. My dog had one for years and I only replaced it because I put it in the dishwasher and it went out of shape. It has a weird sticky feel to it and picks up every bit of fluff going while it’s rolling around. A great interactive treat dispenser. Would definitely recommend.

One of the best toys
One of the best toys for my retriever. She loves it and keeps her busy for quite a few minutes. Works well with duck training treats. I thought she might destroy it as is her wont, but so far it has stood up to some moderate chewing before Ive taken it off her, and now she is not going to chew it at all.

Terrible
Paid a fair price for this itemArrived in this state, clearly had been used already. It’s supposed to be a difficult maze. It’s not. My dog just nudged it very gently and all the food came out instantlyTerrible to charge that price and to send me a used product and a product that doesn’t do what it says it’s supposed to do.

Came looking like it was used already
Came looking like it was used already. Did not survive a week, although to start with looked quite sturdy, however the element inside moved after about 15 minutes of my dog playing with it and was useless since. for a third of a price maybe would be worth buying. You can buy better stuff for way less money, do not buy this shiny looking gadget, as your dog does not care what it looks like, simply needs to do the job! This one stopped after just 15 minutes. Shocking!

Keeps the dog entertained but fluff magnet
Our dogs have loved playing with this. It's tough and hard wearing. Only criticism is that it feels quite sticky to touch and picks up lots of dog hair/fluff. Easily fixed by running under the tap though!
