Noise, bounce & indoor suitability
Foam construction is designed to soften impact, but we do not have a comparable independent sound measurement for this model. Floor vibration can still carry to another room or apartment. A seller’s “silent” description is not proof that neighbors cannot hear it.
Rebound changes with the ball and surface. Start with controlled stationary dribbles on a clear, dry, stable floor. Inspect the ball and stop if the surface feels slippery or the foam is damaged. Check the manufacturer’s care guidance before cleaning.

Questions before ordering
Is this a replacement for a game ball?
Treat it as a companion for indoor handling. The construction and rebound differ from an inflated basketball. Continue some practice with your game ball on a suitable court.
