There’s only one Original Slinky Brand! Generations of children and adults have loved playing with Slinky. This classic metal spring toy walks downstairs, alone or in pairs, and makes a slink-ity sound. First invented by mechanical engineer Richard James in 1943 during an experiment with tension coils. James accidentally dropped a spring on the floor and watched as it began to “walk.” Two years later, he introduced his walking spring toy in Gimbels Department Store, and the Slinky immediately sold out. Since its debut, over 300 million Slinkys have been sold worldwide. In 2000, this classic toy was inducted into the National Toy Hall of Fame. Slinky is fun for a girl or a boy ages 5 and up. Everyone loves a Slinky!

Customers say
Customers find this slinky to be a classic toy that’s fun for kids of all ages and serves as an effective squirrel deterrent by preventing them from climbing bird feeder poles. They appreciate its nostalgic value and consider it good quality for the price. The functionality and durability receive mixed reviews – while some say it works great and holds up well outside, others report it doesn’t work like it used to and bends easily. The size is also a concern, with customers noting it’s smaller than expected.
