Bottom Line

Although this spinner comes with a few concerns, its rugged good looks and decent performance make it a worthy addition to any enthusiast's collection.

Pros

A nicely balanced spinner that has a tactical look and heavy feel. Can spin for up to five minutes with the right "flick" of the finger, which is decent considering the mid-range price.

Cons

A few owners report a clicking noise after dropping it. Some bearing issues have been known to occur after frequent spinning.

Bottom Line

For consumers who want a quality spinner with fun features, excellent spin, and an affordable price, it's a terrific choice.

Pros

With its long, balanced spin, sturdy plastic design, and unique glow-in-the-dark feature, it has more to offer than competitors in its price rang. Limited one-year warranty.

Cons

A little noisy, but otherwise, few complaints have been reported.

Bottom Line

If you are looking for an alternative to the classic fidget spinners, this is one to consider. It offers challenging spinning action that we think you'll enjoy once you get the hang of it.

Pros

Distances itself from others on our list for having dual pendulums that deliver different spinning motions. Made of stainless steel with a fairly weighty build. Comes with a money-back guarantee.

Cons

Takes some time to learn to spin it correctly. Some spinners arrived unbalanced, and a few had rusted bearings.

    Fidget spinners not only spin like a tornado they hit the market like one too. These fun toys keep the fingers busy while the brain keeps whirling. Though first marketed as a way to treat attention disorders, they’ve become a beloved toy by many children (and adults). The basic design is the same for each model, three to eight arms spin around a ball bearing at the center. However, the variations on this design are amazing. They come in all colors of the rainbow, but there’s also metallic finishes, space designs, and various grips at the end of each arm. Some are made to look like a throwing star while the arms of others are modeled after dragon wings. Many of these complex designs leave the realm of toys and become palm-sized pieces of spinning art.
