This yoyo was a disappointment all around. I bought one for my nephew who recently took an interest in learning how to yoyo. Since this said it was "Auto return" I thought it would be good for him to learn on because it would automatically come back up right? Wrong! I don't know what Duncan's idea of auto return is, but this seems like any other yoyo. Only difference being that it was majorly unbalanced causing it to go up and down really crookedly. So much so that you can't even use it as a "regular" yoyo. Very frustrating.
