Okay, so I bought these cones thinking they'd just be for my kid's soccer drills... but wow, they've become the MVP of my household!

First off, the colors are *insanely* bright. Like 'can spot them from space' bright. My son uses them for skateboarding practice (they survive kickflip fails!) and my dog thinks they're chew toys - still intact after weeks of chomping.

Pro tip: They make perfect 'DOG DOOR ALERT' markers. My bulldozer-puppy used to faceplant into the locked dog door... now the orange cone warns her to brake. No more concussions!

Only gripe? They're shorter than I expected (about knee-height). But the heavyweight base keeps them upright even when my dog body-slams them. For $10? Absolute steal.

PS: If you get the purple one... it does kinda look like a tiny traffic pylon. My mailman laughed his head off when he saw it.
