Best Kites of 2025

"I purchased these kites for my kids for Memorial Day weekend at the beach. Assembly was a breeze, and the size and quality surpassed my expectations. The bright colors stood out beautifully in the sky, and the kids were entertained for hours. They’re an incredible bargain compared to other kites I've bought before. My only minor issue is having to disassemble them after use, but it’s really not a big deal. Totally worth every penny!"

"I’m 73 years old, and I bought these kites for my granddaughters. I tested the red one today, and it was easy to fly and well-balanced. I really enjoyed flying it; the vibrant colors and streamers looked fantastic in the breeze, and it really caught air beautifully. What an improvement over the kites I had as a child. Thank you! Doug L."

"We bought these kites for fun at the beach. High quality and they performed well even with strong winds. The balance is fantastic, and they look gorgeous flapping in the air. Birds of cloth!"

"I was amazed at how well-made this kite is! It flies extremely well and looks striking in the sky. I bought it for my nephew, and I was completely blown away by the quality, especially since I usually buy cheap plastic kites. It’s absolutely worth the price!"

"These kites are a huge hit! They are sturdy, colorful, and my 5-year-old loves flying them on windy days. They are easy to fly and have proven to be quite durable. Definitely worth the reasonable price!"

"I originally thought this kite deserved a 5-star rating. It was easy to put together and fly, but after a strong gust, the center rod fell out. Thankfully, my toddler found it, but the ends were sharp fiberglass and caused some minor splinters. I wish there was a protective covering on the rod ends."

“I found these kites to be very well made. The materials are strong, and the construction is easy, allowing them to fly high and be easy to handle.”

“We had a blast flying these kites after our board meeting! They were easy to put together and flew high and well for a while.”

“I got these kites as an Easter Egg hunt prize, and the winner loved it!”

"These kites are awesome! My kids flew them all summer, and they still look brand new and work so well. They're easy to control and provide great exercise!"

"I bought this set of 3 kites as Easter gifts for my grandkids, ages 2, 6, and 11. They were easy to set up and took only 2-5 minutes each. We had a great day flying them, and it's now September, and all three are still sky-worthy!"

"We purchased these kites for our Florida beach vacation. They were fun, beautiful, and easy to use. I did encounter a minor issue with one kite being a bit torn, but it still held up well. Overall, a good purchase!"

"I just bought this 4-pack of kites and I'm really impressed! The kites are super colorful and seem really sturdy, which is great because they handle the wind really well. Putting them together was a breeze, and flying them was so much fun—my whole family enjoyed it. There's a nice variety in the designs, so everyone gets something they like. For the price, this set is fantastic. Highly recommend if you're looking for some outdoor fun!"

"These kites were perfect for my family and me. We have fun at the park flying these kites. They are easy to setup and to put away. We've flown them several times now, and they're still in good condition."

"The squid kite was by far the easiest to setup and get aloft and keep it in the air. Beginners will love this one. The dragon and snake kites were ok, but they tend to loop and crash. The ray kite was the worst. I had issues with the frame; every time I tried to get it airborne, it would loop and crash, loosening the already crappy frame. For the money, it's not bad, just replace that ray kite with something better."

“My little brother opened the kite with so much excitement, and he flew it high while teaching our cousin how to do the same. The string is a bit thin, but as long as you’re careful, the kite is strong and gives off a wonderful vibe.”

“I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of this kite compared to others I've seen in stores. While it's not as good as the Nylon kites I remember from my childhood, it's definitely one of the best basic kites available for kids.”

“My 2.5-year-old is absolutely in love with this kite! It's bright, fun, and holds up well in our windy area. Just a heads-up, you might get the string tangled if you're not careful when reeling it back in.”

"These kites are incredible! They're well made, easy to use, and look fantastic. I love that they come ready to go right out of the box, which is ideal since kids often don't want to wait. I would definitely buy them again!"

"I ordered the rocket ship kite and took it with me on vacation to the beach. It was easy to pack and provided hours of fun!"

"My grandson, who is just 2 years old, absolutely loves this kite. He had no problems flying it at all. I would highly recommend it!"

"I purchased this kite as a gift for my niece, and she absolutely loves it!"

"My granddaughter had hours of fun flying this kite at the beach. It was easy to get up in the air and flew effortlessly with just a little wind. I highly recommend it and would definitely buy again."

"While the kite looked great, I found coaxing it into flight quite challenging. Despite the good breeze, it didn't soar like others. I had hoped my seven-year-old would enjoy it, but it seemed unflyable for her."

"I found these kites to be so fun and easy to use! We took them to the beach in Gulf Shores, AL, and they soared effortlessly in the sky! The design resembles an octopus, and they worked brilliantly with the wind. Highly recommend for beginners!"

"My kids had a blast with these kites! They rolled out of the bag, hooked onto the string, and took off easily. The colors were vibrant, and the material felt high quality. Everyone from ages 3 to 60 had a great time. I will definitely buy more!"

"I was pleasantly surprised by these kites. We took them to the Outer Banks of NC and they were a breeze to set up! Just clip the string and let them fly! They held up well in the high winds, and I loved how they stored neatly in the provided bag. What a delightful experience!"

"I had the kite for a month, and I couldn't be happier! These kites are fantastic for family outings—easy to assemble and perfect for beginners. The vibrant rainbow colors make them fun for kids. What impressed me most was how well they fly even in low wind conditions. My 3-year-old had a blast running around the beach, and the setup was hassle-free. Highly recommend for fun, family-friendly outdoor activity!"

"I bought these for a birthday party and they flew great! However, I found that the string isn't tied to the handle, so I had to unwind it before letting it out, or else I would lose my kite. Still, the kites were a hit overall!"

"These kites looked great with lovely, bright colors. Unfortunately, after flying them with my daughters at the beach, they became so tangled that I had to throw them away. The strings weren't very sturdy, and my partner spent nearly two hours trying to untangle them. We did enjoy flying them while they lasted, but I wouldn't buy again."
