Premium Metal Whistles with Lanyard (4 Pack) - Loud Stainless Steel Whistles Perfect for Coaches, Referee, Officials, Football Coach, Basketball, Soccer, Hockey, Lifeguard

These seem like pretty good whistles and the lifetime warrantee is a major plus. Unfortunately for the seller, these whistles got a severe workout the first use. I was using them to signal riders of a water slide when it was good to go up the slide, and when it was good to come down. We did 598 rides that day and the whistle was blown at least once for each ride. About 5 -10% of the time, I needed to blow the whistle more than once, as the ball would not easily bellow inside the chamber. I think the ball needs tiny grooves to allow it to chirp easier. Other than needing to occasionally reinforce a bad blast, the whistle performed adequate under circumstances. Under a lighter workload, I believe the user would be very happy with this whistle, I was just hoping it required slightly less effort as the use is extreme and gets exhausting after a few hundred blasts.

Received product quickly as well as a follow-up email from the company. Unfortunately I've already returned the whistles due to their lack of performance. While they do whistle you must exert a lot of pressure to get the ball to spin in the chamber. I believe this challenge is due to the small diameter of the cork ball and larger whistle opening. Those facts also makes it difficult to create a short chirp/blast whistle effectively. Again, they work, but not like other's I've used.

I purchased these whistles as dog recall whistles and the dogs respond to them very well. I particularly appreciate that pitch and volume are easy to control unlike most coach whistles which simply don't work unless you use a sharp burst of air. Highly recommend this versatile whistle!

These are not as good as I was hoping for. They don't sound good and are not as responsive as better whistles I've used (i.e. you have to blow hard and sometimes numerous times before they respond, then not with a clear, loud sound.). However, with that bring said, the price was reasonable, the shipping was quick, and they were as otherwise described.

Good product except the first order I only got two of them but they did rectify the problem and sent me four new ones. Thanks for taking care of the problem. I bought them to use as safety whistles and seems like they should do the job.

The whistles arrived and they make a very strong, shrill whistle sound. Normally I am not a fan of loud, shrill noises - but I make an exception for coach/referee type whistles. And there are many possible uses. Soccer coach/referee. Basketball coach/referee. Football coach/referee. Crossing guard practice. To ward off aggressive strangers. Even creating mild disturbances in public places. Maybe you have another, completely original idea in mind.These whistles have certainly satiated my desire for a product that metal coaching whistles are designed to accommodate.

They came on time, customer service is excellent. And the whistles work great for us. We use them to get attention from groups of dogs that often have a difficult time focusing. Great product and great service.

Really nice whistles.... I gave the pack as a gift to my grandson, who works as a soccer referee mostly for middle school games in the Tucson area. The whistles have a professional look, and are REALLY LOUD!!!
