Slow rising squishy
Slow rising squishies are the oldest and still the best selling kind. They are made of soft PU foam with a painted surface. When you squeeze one the dent stays for a few seconds and then the shape slowly fills out again. A round one is what plenty of people simply call a squishy stress ball.
Shapes run from toast and croissants to fruit and animals. Small ones fit in a pocket. The big ones live on our jumbo page. Because foam is light, a few slow risers barely add weight to a parcel, which makes them easy to mix with butter or crunchy squishies.
Fresh foam can smell a bit when it comes out of the bag. Leave it somewhere airy for a day or two and the smell usually fades. Keep foam squishies out of direct sun and off the radiator so the paint and the foam stay nice.
How long does a slow rising squishy take to rise?
A few seconds, depending on the foam and the size. Big squishies usually take a little longer than small ones.
Why does my new squishy smell?
New foam often has a smell from production. Let it air out for one or two days somewhere with fresh air. It doesn't need to go in the washing machine for that.
Is a squishy a stress ball?
Many people use the two words for the same thing. A slow rising squishy is a soft foam toy for squeezing and kneading. It is a toy and not a medical product.
