It’s a relatively simple invention. A stress ball is a squeezable, round object typically made from a type of rubber that you can keep at your desk or in your laptop bag. For some users, squeezing stress balls helps relieve everyday frustrations or temporarily redirect their focus. The MB Wolverine representative said the company recently identified a small batch with an "isolated quality issue" that made it prone to leaks and spills. Eight former and current employees in Target stores in Wisconsin, Arizona, Pennsylvania, Florida, New Jersey, California, the DC Metro Area, and Maryland, as well as one employee in a New Jersey Walmart store said the toy has popped, leaked, or burst in their stores.

Cassandra, a current employee in a New Jersey Walmart, said that it is not uncommon for the toy to burst in her store. She said the toy burst on her hands two weeks ago and that last week, it leaked on three different people, including a young girl. Some stress relief balls build in scents to add to the experience. You might prefer instead to light an aromatherapy candle or drop some oils in a warmer in conjunction with using your stress relief.

Some stress balls are sold in sets, and it’s important to look at the way they are structured. You’ll find sets that offer multiple resistances to let you work your way up as your grip strengthens. This can also be a way to switch between resistances depending on your stress relief ball.

The material might not be safe if your pet should happen to chew on it.

Occasionally, you’ll need to clean your stress relief ball. Typically, you can use soap and water, but some manufacturers advise you to use only water. You likely won’t be able to slip it into the dishwasher due to the extreme temperature conditions involved. Durability can be an issue in something you use so aggressively. Look for a stress ball made from quality materials. Some even add a coating designed to keep protect the surface over years of use. Do stress balls work? The answer is, it depends. Some studies show that stress balls reduce anxiety and stress, while others contradict those findings. In the end, the answer is that it varies from person to person. For some people, stress balls can provide much-needed relief, while others won’t see any benefit whatsoever. The spokesperson said that the company recently discovered an "isolated quality issue" related to a small batch of the balls that was manufactured with a thinner outer wall, which made the toys prone to breaks and leaks.
