Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about the Trovely HoverBall Pro.

The Product

What exactly is this?

An indoor hover soccer ball. A quiet internal fan lifts the ball onto a thin cushion of air, so it glides across the floor like it's on an air-hockey table. A soft foam bumper rings the edge, LED lights glow as it moves, and it comes with 2 goals so you can set up a full match. It's screen-free, house-safe indoor play for the whole family.

What's in the box?

1 LED hover soccer ball with its foam bumper, 2 goal nets, and a USB charging cable. Everything you need for a match right out of the box.

Does it work on carpet?

It's at its best on hard floors — hardwood, tile, laminate, vinyl plank, and concrete, where it glides the full length of the room. It also works on low-pile carpet, just a little slower. Thick or shaggy rugs are a no — the air cushion needs a flat, hard surface. The good news: almost every home has a kitchen, hallway, or basement that's perfect for it.

Who is it for?

Kids ages 3 and up, with a sweet spot around 4–10 — and the adults always end up joining in. It's built for parents who want their kids off screens, rainy-day and winter boredom, apartments with no yard, and family game nights. It's also a go-to birthday and Christmas gift.

Playing With It

Does it really hover?

Yes — one light tap sends it gliding across the room. The internal fan lifts it onto a cushion of air so it drifts almost frictionless on a hard floor. The usual one-star complaint on cheap clones is a weak motor that barely lifts the ball; Trovely is tuned to glide smoothly. Check the videos above — real footage, no edits.

Will it break my walls or furniture?

No. Because it glides along the floor instead of flying, there's nothing airborne to hit a lamp, window, or TV. The soft foam bumper around the edge means it bounces off walls and baseboards without leaving a mark. Quiet enough for apartments, too — no angry downstairs neighbors.

How long does the battery last?

About [[EDIT — X minutes]] of continuous play on a full charge, which takes around [[EDIT — Y minutes]] to top up. It's USB rechargeable — charge it like a phone, no AA batteries to buy. Gift tip: charge it the night before so it's ready the moment it's unwrapped.

How do I set it up?

Charge the ball, assemble the 2 goals, flip the switch, and play. Most families are up and running within a few minutes.

Safety & Care

Is it safe for kids and pets?

Yes — it's built for indoor family play. The soft foam bumper is gentle on walls, furniture, toes, and paws, and kids can even kick it barefoot. Since it stays on the floor instead of flying, there's nothing airborne to hurt anyone. One habit: as with any fan-powered toy, keep long hair tied back and clear of the underside during play. Supervise young kids and pets.

What age is it recommended for?

Ages 3 and up, with adult supervision for the youngest. The sweet spot is roughly 4–10, but it's genuinely fun for the whole family.

Will it hold up, or break in a week?

It's built to survive daily play and wall-bumps — which is exactly where the flimsy versions fall apart. If anything goes wrong inside your guarantee window, we'll make it right. We're not going to make you argue for it.

How do I clean and store it?

Wipe the foam bumper with a dry or lightly damp cloth — don't submerge it, since there's a motor and battery inside. The goals break down flat for easy storage, and the ball tucks into a basket or on a shelf between games.

Shipping & Returns

How long does shipping take?

Orders are processed within 1–2 business days and typically delivered within 5–7 business days across the US, with free standard shipping. Ordering as a gift? Give yourself a few days' buffer before birthdays and the holidays.

What is your return policy?

60-day money-back guarantee. If it doesn't wow the kids, email us within 60 days for a full refund. Most people buying one of these have been burned by a cheap version before, so we're not going to make you argue for it.

Mine arrived damaged, or a piece is missing.

Email support@trovely.com with a photo and we'll send a replacement — no return needed, no argument. If the ball or a goal is genuinely damaged or missing, we replace it fast so nobody's stuck with a half-working set.

Can I track my order?

Yes — you'll get a tracking number by email as soon as your order ships. If it hasn't arrived within a few business days of that email, contact support@trovely.com and we'll chase it for you.
