Jonhamwelbor 50 Number Balloons Gold Big Giant Jumbo Number 50 Foil Mylar Balloons for 50th Birthday Party Supplies 50 Anniversary Events Decorations

So, we were throwing a surprise 50th birthday party for my dad and *had* to have those big number balloons, you know? I was looking at a few different options on Amazon and Etsy, and some were seriously expensive! This set caught my eye because it was a good price for a pair of gold “5” and “0” balloons, and I liked that they said you could inflate them with air *or* helium. I figured if helium was too pricey, we could just hang them with tape. I've had these up for about a week now, and they’ve been the centerpiece of the decorations.What really stood out to me was how shiny they were, and they were *huge* – definitely made a statement! Also, being able to reuse them if we’re careful is a bonus. We inflated them with air because, honestly, helium just felt a bit extra. It took a little bit of puff, but totally doable! We almost didn't get it inflated, my son had some trouble with the valve at first, but once we got going it was easy.### PROS* The size is amazing: Seriously, these balloons are really big and noticeable. They really make a statement and are perfect for photos.* The gold color is super shiny and festive: They look much more expensive than they are. They really elevated the whole party look.* Reusable (if you're careful!): We're planning on carefully deflating these and saving them for another celebration. A definite plus!* Versatile inflation options: Being able to use air *or* helium gave us flexibility. We opted for air, which saved us a trip to get a tank!* Good Value for the Price: There's a lot of other places you can get these from, and they are seriously overpriced.### CONS* A little tricky to inflate: It took a couple tries to get the valve started – my son almost gave up! It wasn't *hard*, just a little fiddly.* Don’t overfil: I read in the product info (and saw in other reviews!) to not overfill them, and I'm glad I did. One of my friends said theirs exploded when they tried to get it super firm.* Temperature sensitive: I live in a warm climate and noticed they seemed a bit more…soft after a day in the sun. Not a huge deal, but something to keep in mind!### Bottom LineThese balloons are a great choice if you’re looking for a festive and affordable way to celebrate a birthday, anniversary, or other special occasion. They are especially good if you're on a budget but still want a big impact. I’d definitely recommend not trying to rush the inflation process, and definitely don't overfill them! Overall, pretty sweet setup for the price, and they definitely made my dad's 50th a memorable one!

Easy to inflate, and stayed inflated for a while.

These were the perfect addition to a 30th surprise party. Purchased along side a hang pump and they are still hanging!

This ballon is so cool!! It comes with a straw looking tool you use to blow in to make it blow up I love!! It last a long time!! I am keeping the balloons on display in my house all month lol

Love these!!! They are large in size, and stay inflated forever, like months!!! I thought it was really nice how they provided a straw so you can inflate them yourself! There's also holes to hang them as well. Awesome!

Fun decoration add for our anniversary party

Hole in one of the balloons. I didn’t have time to ask for a replacement :(

Nice balloons great color but our “1” had a hole in it
