Helium King Large Canister

This was our first time buying one, and we don't regret it at all. We read reviews from other buyers, and they were all unhappy, for some reason, that they didn't have enough helium. It might depend on the seller, but in this case, I can confidently say the quality is worth the money. The tank is very easy to use; we inflated very large foil balloons, and there was still some gas left.

Great. It was easy to used and filled 2 very big 3 and 0 numbers in addition to 10 more large foil balloons and many latex ones.

1 of the canisters only filled 10 balloons..the other 2 where ok.

This worked exactly as described. Ballon’s lasted over a day. Very easy to do no issues what’s so ever.

Arrived very promptly so ordering and delivery was not an issue. The product quality was a huge issue as the helium canisters were less than half full. They are supposed to fill 20 x 18" foil balloons per canister. So as I had 22 x 18" balloons to fill to give with party bags I should have had more than enough helium with after ordering 2 of these canisters. I managed to fill 5 x 18" foil balloons with one canister and 7 x 18" foil balloons with the other - total of 12 x 18" foil balloons filled instead of the potential 40. Not a good buy at all and had to get more! I only wish I had thought of videoing or recording me opening up each boxed canister and filling the balloons to use as evidence to show that there was not the advertised amount of helium in each canister. A complete waste of money and had to rush to get more helium on the day of the party so there would not be 10 disappointed children. I have used disposable helium canisters previously and have never had a problem before with the amount of helium. Put it this way I bought a 30 balloon canister as a last minute purchase which is supposed to fill 12 x 18" foil balloons and I easily filled the 10 remaining balloons with spare helium air left over. I will not order helium via this method again as it was not worth the money spent and the product did not deliver as advertised.

We'd used a cheaper, small canister a couple of years back and were disappointed, so didn't have high hopes, but we learned a trick and this canister filled all we needed and more. Foil ballons have a valve feature and it's very easy to waste gas while filling, the trick is to use a straw (one set of the ballons we'd bought had one in, but a normal drinking straw works too). insert the straw into the valve (sometimes it neds to go in a long way) until it is possible to gently blow a bit of air into the balloon easily. Then and only then put the end of the straw over the tip of the canister nozzle and fill it, pressing the straw firmly onto the nozzle to make a seal (this was easier with two people). When full, release the nozzle to stop the gas and quickly withdraw the straw to stop the ballon deflating. Doing this, we filled 8 x large champagne bottle/glass ballons, 3ft high 8 and 0 ballons and about 15 16" foil and 12" latex ballons (latex just filled straight off the nozzle, obvioulsy) with this cylinder alone. All stayed up perfectly until the next morning (and would have much longer). This was way better than the cheaper canister we'd used previoulsy and I think worth the extra over the small size (seemed to do almost twice as many ballons for ~25% extra price).

I bought this for my husband’s 40th party and purchased 60 balloons (expecting not all would be filled with helium) however we only managed to fill 25 before it ran out. Followed the instructions and sizes of balloons to the letter. They had also started to deflate before the party even began (filled them in the morning and by the evening most were drooping. Was easy to use, but disappointed that they didn’t last long and the party looks pretty sparse without the full 50.
