I like the smoothness of the movement and the surface but using it quickly leaves me feeling like I'm absorbing prickly metal ions and I have to put it back down. Do others experience this sensation? I'd love to know and understand this better.
First, this is really well made. I like the feel of it in general. But, it's too big for my hands to be comfortable with it. One of my standard fidgeting things is to slide and flip a couple of quarters together in my pocket. I was hoping this would accomplish that sensation quietly, but it's just too unwieldy for me. Great product, great feel, if you release one half this size I'll snap it up in a heartbeat.
As a 71 year old with arthritic thumbs, I couldn’t make the discs move against each other without removing the magnet first . Didn’t know it was even there, actually.
I can't say enough good things about the junior-size steel ONO roller. As someone who struggles with anxiety and focus issues, this little gadget has become my go-to fidget toy, and it's made a world of difference in my daily life.
First off, the size is spot-on. It fits perfectly in my hand, making it easy to use discreetly whether I'm at work, in a meeting, or just relaxing at home. The weight of the steel version is just right - substantial enough to feel satisfying, but not so heavy that it becomes tiresome to use.
What really sets this roller apart is its versatility. I find myself reaching for it whenever I'm feeling anxious or need to concentrate. The smooth rolling action is incredibly soothing and helps me redirect my nervous energy in a positive way. It's like having a mini stress-relief session right at my fingertips!
AND best of all- its COMPLETELY silent!
Here's a pro tip: try putting it in the fridge! When I'm feeling particularly overwhelmed, the cool steel against my skin provides an extra layer of sensory input that I find incredibly calming.
The quality of the ONO roller is impressive, too. It feels durable and well-made, which gives me confidence that it'll withstand daily use for a long time to come.
I'm so impressed with this junior steel ONO roller that I'm already eyeing other products in their line. If you're someone who deals with anxiety, struggles with focus, or just enjoys fidget toys, I can't recommend this enough. It's small enough to carry everywhere but effective enough to make a real difference in managing stress and improving concentration.
In short, this little roller has become an essential part of my anxiety management toolkit. Give it a try - your mind (and your fidgety fingers) will thank you!
It is the perfect size for smaller hands. So quiet and the perfect weight. It's great for at school or work to keep occupied and focused. Even my younger children and my husband like it!
Highly recommend this product. High quality and a well thought out design. Couldn't love this product enough!
My ONO is great! My favorite fidget! I love that it makes no noise. And sticking it in the freezer for a few minutes! Makes it even better!
I loved having this addition to my scroller...it allowed me to put it on a lanyard and hang it around my neck, giving me easy access. It's a nice way to take it on the go...put it on a lanyard or a keychain and you'll always have it with you!
The scroller with the keychain is so good when you are out and need to fidget. Like waiting for fast food or stuck in traffic. With it in your keychain people just think you are fiddling with your keys. They think nothing of it. And I can use it in my car to stay calm.
I love the aluminum roller! I have one at work and one at home. It feels Sooooo good in your hand. Very calming. Perfect when you are doing something with one hand like using phone or mouse. Best fidget gadget ever!
Perfectly quiet and smooth as promised. My only worry was that it would feel too light (struggled whether I should get the heavy-weight titanium version instead), but it was just about right!
I love it, but it’s not as smooth as the one my partner got
Got for my partner with adhd. He really likes it and uses it all the time. It's quiet so it works great for stimming while we watch a movie :)
I didn't know what to expect about ONO Roller, so I bought 2 of them : one aluminium and one plastic.
The plastic has a good soft touch. It is very light so you can have it in your bag or pocket without even feel it, that's very convenient when you're always on the road (last time I bring it with me when I was cycling, in my jersey, and that was nice to know it was there if needed, but still light). I use it a lot at work when reading, thinking or writing, even in reunion or in front of a classroom. It helps stop biting my nails or picking my skin, and to concentrate and beat the stress out when speaking in public. So, helpfull, yes.
I keep the ONO soft touch plastic in by bag, so I am always sure to have a stimm toys with me, even if I forgot to pick one from home before leaving, and it doesn't ad weight on my back, so, great.
I didn't know what to expect about ONO Roller, so I bought 2 of them : one aluminium and one plastic.
The aluminium has a good weight, and even when you keep it in your pocket it feels like a weighted object which helps when overwhelmed. And I like to turn them in my hand when reading, thinking or writing. It helps stop biting my nails or picking my skin. So, helpfull, yes.
I keep the ONO aluminium in a stimm toys basket where I pick the toy I need for the day, and it's one I choose the most.
The product itself is good, but when I got mine, one of the rollers was stiff and when I tried to loosen one of the screws with the provided hex wrenches, the two rollers became misaligned and one of the hard plastic end pieces cracked. It was not made clear that you had to use both wrenches at the same on the same roller to loosen the screws.
