## Questions & Answers

**Q: does it walk down stairs**
A: No, it does not. It seems to be quite a bit smaller in diameter than the old ones and there was not enough ength to carry it forward. Unless your stair treads are very narrow, you won't be able to get it to walk down.

**Q: how many coils does this slinky has?**
A: I counted 77 coils. Each is 2.5 inch in diameter.  When compressed it is 2.25 inches long. Not long enough to perform as the original slinky

**Q: Why is a 2 pack $56.37?**
A: Yes, I was charged 49.99 for shipping!
5.85 for 2 , said the description..
I am fighting this, for sure

**Q: does it work on (thickly) carpeted stairs?**
A: Yes, as long as the stairs are short enough. Its likely that the carpet won't be the issue as much as the length of your stairs.
