In this video I tierlist over 30 different fidget toys to figure out which ones are good and which ones are bad. There's so many fidget toys out there of questionable quality, so hopefully this helps you choose which ones you want!

You have no idea how validated i feel to know that someone else has a problem with rubber things leaving a smell on their hands. I love having things to do with my hands but that’s my biggest turnoff for most squeeze toys
I have the same problem but for metal things, i just hate the smell so bad. i usually dont even eat with metal cutlery but with wooden chopsticks instead.
why do you think they do that? I have a stress ball like that and a weird smell has never been an issue for me
Yeah some metal toys and most rubber stress balls leave a weird smell. I wonder if there is a way to clean them or something
I have a stressball that doesn't have a smell, but I have a set of little tiny goobers that smell if i poke them too much :/

Someone give me an explanation of glaggleland lore for clarification purposes
@@iamwoke322 roughly speaking, glaggleland is a theme park based around 🙂 these guys, with something sinister lurking underneath the surface. Overall it's nothing super serious, it's mostly for the memes, but people make shit up about glaggleland massacres and dangerous glaggles. It's all pretty loosely connected fan content and the lore is whatever you want it to be

Yeah, fidgets can be hit or miss but I do like the little slugs! I love them so much! they're just silly little critters 😁
The slugs remind me of slinkies (the original fidget toy)
i like the noise of them
If you like them but are looking for a silent version, I've found the smaller keychain ones to be mostly quiet.
I realized that pongon is actually a comfort KZheadr to me! The way they speak actually makes me pay attention. I pay attention if the topic is interesting or the person speaking has a nice voice and pongon actually ha both of those! :3

One thing to say: SAME
One thing to say: SAME AS THE OTHER REPLY WHO YOU SEE IS MADE BY imburrnin4495
I do not know for the life of me what it's called, but there's this sensory toy that's like a set of five or six mobius strips woven together like a bracelet, and it feels so unbelievably satisfying to put it on your wrist and let gravity run it down your arm. Not very portable and a bit obnoxious that you need to visibly move your body to use it, but the tactile stimulation makes up for it.
oh i think i know what ur talking abt! i have no idea what they’re called either but they’re so fucking satisfying, they break pretty easily from my experience though
Toroflux
ah thats a toroflux
Kinda rings a bell
I own one, very fun to use :)
at 14:52 and 16:09 ("it's broken and i cannot fix it"), i actually do own this and you can try to *actually* fix it (tangles usually have connectors), but it's really hard to do it considering the fact that it's literally a tangle but covered with some rubber thing that you can take it off if you don't need those same thing appeals to other tangles if you accidentally break it (except if the connectors are broken stuck on the other)
6:06 Fidget toy designers: he is nearly dead but... We can enhance him with fidget toys!
There’s actually a better version of the popit toys with plastic frames instead of being all rubber. My mom got two of them for me one year for my birthday and they were SO much better than the rubber ones. They aren’t flimsy in the slightest, and the pops are much more satisfying.
I will try those out if I do another video!
@@PolygonDonut you also gotta try out nee-doh. its like a stress ball but?? doesnt hurt to squish? and it doesnt feel all weird and tacky like most squishy stress balls and they also make a goofy ass cat version 😸

Im like way above the age for baby sensory videos yet I watch them more than my BABY cousin
lol wat
"Ow My FiNgEr" *puts bandage on* "HeHeHeHeH"
Fidget toys are all about maximizing my efficiency and *not* distracting me, so the ones that do nothing but give your hand something to do are the best ones imo. Like the infinity cube and the chain links 17:35 I have the chain links fidget, have used it regularly for like ten years and it is genuinely my favorite fidget toy of all time. You basically just flip them over and spin them and you can pull the rubber rings in the center over the little cylinders. I also like to hold one link and then shake the other. It’s pretty satisfying at least in my opinion. That’s why fidget toys all come down to personal preference
this video made me realize how much my neurodivergent silliness adores this channel. like the way polygon donut talks is so nice and safe (im misophonic so i have trouble watching some videos due go the way some people speak), the editing is really fun and keeps my attention, and the pacing always keeps me interested :3
Thank you for enjoying the videoss :D
Same I love how he talks 😊
the gods have spoken
wtf
Stress balls are extremely variable. I have one I got at an autism event and it's so perfect - small enough to fit in pockets, firm enough to be satisfying but not enough to cramp my hands, and covered in soft fabric so there's no rubber scent! It's my favorite fidget by far. You really do need to go out and squeeze a ton of different balls before you can find one that works.
That last sentence had me for a second-
I love how goofy and funny the sensory slug looks,because it's just a squirmy little goober.
12:04 that's a force 4d cube. Force cubes are Rubik's cubes with one color only and it's done with a 4d Rubik's cube, which is based from the computer program, it looks like that because a 4D cube cannot be done physically. I suggest getting one with different colors because you would actually have something to do
These are the best videos to watch when it's 8:38 am and you had a sleepless night, and are ready to freaking die in bed but you can't due to your bad life choices of staying awake in past nights while in bed.
extremely underrated comment
YAES
Word of warning: if you get a tangle, I have had mine for over a year, but it is made of individual piece, which do come together, the problem is is that recently one of the clips my pieces used to clip onto the thing broke off, and it is irreplaceable, just keep in mind that if you use it to much some pieces may break
Also tangle fuzzies can have the fuzz fall off I had one and after a month it was pretty beat up
yep, my sister had like 8 and after years is down to 2 Frankenstein ones lol Good thing is you can mix n match pieces & they are fairly affordable
My favorite fidget is a clay fidget chip I got on Etsy a few years ago. It doesn’t have any moving parts or anything fancy, but it does have a few different textures I enjoy (unglazed ceramic with a raised wood-grain texture on the front, smooth glazed ceramic on the back, and ridged glazed ceramic around the sides). It is especially useful for me to prevent skin picking
Oh no you got click baited by the happy balls😞 21:56
Glaggles*
I agree with this tier list, but honetly, Idk about the stress balls being in the bottom tier, It's another case like the magnet fidgets, if you got them in the right material, they can be REALLY satisfying to use :)
If I do a sequel I will try out some better quality ones!!!
@@PolygonDonut Thank you mister cat man :)

@@PolygonDonut try the slow squish ones, they are much better! i have one on my desk at work and i love it

I am a very introverted person and am usually very quiet and not at all conversational. What people don't ever realize is that my inner monologue sounds exactly like your videos, lol. If they only knew.... They haven't really made a fidget that I love, but I do have a miniature version of the tangle (it's ok, meh), and I have a simple dimple popit that is also miniature (why do I have this again?). Thanks for the satisfying reviews, dude.

My favorite “fidget toy” (kinda stretching the definition here but still) is slime. I’m really tired of people saying “it’s not a trend anymore! Slime is dead!” Because why would I like something just because it’s a trend? It’s just fun to squish and pop, and the stickiness doesn’t really bother me. Some types of slime, like ones with instant snow in them aren’t sticky at all, either. Though my favorite textures are probably butter slime, thick slime, and jelly slime. If anyone out there is thinking of trying slime as a fidget toy just to relieve stress or have something to do with your hands, I recommend Slime Obsidian, Slime OG, or Dope Slime (Dope Slime especially because they have an option to order a smaller container, which costs less, if you don’t want too much.) Just don’t get storebought stuff because it’s a really mixed bag. The handmade stuff from smaller businesses is always gonna be better quality, even though it is more expensive. Some things to look out for are fragrances, if you’re sensitive to them, and the texture you chose. Slime Obsidian, for example, lists different textures on whether they’re beginner friendly, which just means whether or not people who haven’t played with slime before are likely to get it all over their hands because it’s a little sticky lol. I’d recommend a butter slime because they’re not very sticky, and they’re super smooth and soft. Anyways sorry for the tangent, I just think more people should know that slime isn’t just a 2016 trend for 12 year olds. It’s actually a really fun, stress relief toy, like putty. If you’re like me and something in your brain tells you you need to always be touching or messing with something, slime is great!
Omg why do I write an essay every time a comment on KZhead videos 😭
I’m here to simplify your text! IMO! The best fidget toy by far is slime, even though people say it’s a dead trend which doesn’t make sense. They are just so satisfying to listen to and use! I don’t care that they are sticky because many types of slime aren’t sticky! Seriously, if you are looking for a good fidget then I’d recommend Dope Slime
@@chickennuggetpawyou don’t need to add all these reasons when talking about something. Unless you are in a debate you should only stick with one thing and go into detail on that
I use Play-doh 🗿 Especially when I am studying oral subjects for exams. I guess it's similar to slime?

Personally, sound actually makes the fidget toy better because more of my senses are being entertained.
My favorite part is where you find out there’s glaggles 8:18 6:43 yes
The "Stress" balls are more for people who have problems with moving their hands like arthritis and people with problems like that squeeze them so they can move a bit their hands more and not making the problem worse
I usually stand on smile face stress balls and see how much they're squished afterwards
@@cat_the_real me too
22:07 how the glaggle massacre started
As an autistic child, I like having fidgets that I can fidget with while doing work. I also like having small, squishy and waterproof thingys that I can sometimes chew on. And I have this idea that if I get a playbutton, I'd get a custom one with fidgets gluedbon on it lol
1:51 end of sponsor
My favorite stim tools often end up being things that aren’t made to be stim tools. I have dermatillomania (which is compulsive skin picking) and I’ve found a silicone brush is amazing at redirecting the urge to pick. Chewlery is also amazing!!
can i just have AT LEAST 1 hour of polygon donut beatboxing? 6:43
I WANT IT TO
14:58 WURM!!
7:36 i own one of these. mines black and red. and i also own a Shashibo cube, same pattern as the one you got.
A pop toy I'd recommend can be found at dollar tree. I don't remember what it's called. There's only two big different colored bubbles, one on each end of a plastic frame with a small hole in between. They're very satisfying to prime and pop. And once you get your fingers into the groove of punching them in, rotating and flipping the toy around to poke em back out; gets real addicting. 😊
I think that's called a simple dimple.
@@the_goofiest_whajje Looking at it, it does look real similar. Maybe it's an updated version, since the one I got is over a year old. The keychain is new, but it looks a bit smaller and is missing the hole in the middle that lets it be a lower budget spinner.

absolutely love that you put the second cube (?) at the top cuz I have the exact type just in different colours and it’s my favourite fidget ever
no way watching further in I have the metal cards thingy too and I also love it so much
The gold tangle you have is actually a redo of an older line called Totally Textured from the mid-2010s, it had smaller bumps, a good weight and nicer quality. Mine is shiny purple! :D

this is really helpful, I'm so sick and tired of spending money on fidget toys that are unsatisfying simply due to me not knowing what to look for...
Fidget spinners are a classic, but the feel is the important part. Too metallic or too plasticky is awful.
since this reply I've actually found a couple that work for me! the fidgit pad is really nice for every day use, especially for conversations, but I also found the NeeDoh Nice Cube for when I want to stretch and pull. if Polygon Donut wants to give stress balls another go I'd recommend that; it's the least smelly stress ball I've tried.
"the fidget cube morphed in to this fidget pad thing" my brain: me got dat
2:45 I like fidget spinners. I like their portability and how they spin. But yes, be careful with the quality that you buy, if it’s cheap plastic the spin is kinda horrible. 11:25 “THE AUTSIM FINAL BOSS!” got me a lot! As an autistic person, I actually really want one of these! It seems so good to carry with me, and I like to carry my fidgets with me everywhere. But I hate the door stopper thing, their just too loud. But I’m happy you can take it on and off, that’s a win in my book! 12:15 I love infinity cubes! Their the best, and I have quite a few. But I’m unhappy about your ranking, but I understand. Not every fidget is for someone.
If I had a nickel for every time one of my favorite KZheadrs ranked fidget toys, I’d have two nickels, which is not a lot but it’s crazy that it’s happens twice.
