I am sorry to say that this is not an orignal slinky. It does not do anything like the old classic. I would like my money back.
 It just doesn't work like the slinky of old September 27, 2007

They seem to have somehow spoiled the design of this toy. It looks identical to the slinky I used to have a few years ago but for some reason it just does not work anywhere near as good. Maybe it's a fractionally different weight or size, I really don't know but there is definately something marginally different about it because I haven't got it to the bottom of the stairs even once in about a hundred tries. As long as I got the technique correct the slinky I used to have worked every time on the same flight of stairs that I've being trying this one on. The imitation slinky called 'Springy' is maybe a tiny fraction better but it's still useless. Plastic ones are useless too, not heavy or flexible enough. In my quest to find a slinky that will actually walk down the whole flight of stairs the only one I have found which actually works is a dark metal collectors edition slinky in a brown manilla box. Unfortunately this one is tricky to find in the UK. I had to get mine from an american website, but I suppose one could occasionally crop up on auction sites.
