On our way!
about 7 years ago – Sun, Jan 06, 2019 at 03:20:53 PM

Well alright,

Lots going on and it's time we shared:

So we have made lots of tweaks to the design to bring it to final form. We are doing this with you in mind, the idea is to make the Candy Cane more durable, comfortable and lighter with the end goal of making it also smaller to carry as it blows up to full size.

We think We're pretty much there. See below a few images from IRL Liran and Idan flying with the latest design. it showcases the one-piece design which now puts the inner liner as part of the shell making the Candy Cane one solid piece.

And note here the seamless stitching and fabric up close:

We also put together this nifty little bag to carry the Candy Cane in it. You will get one of these with your order:

So what's next:

Well, we are on schedule with production in place and we really do think that a february delivery is in the cards for all. We know that this is a pretty lofty goal but we think its in grasp. So the next few months are going to be pretty intensive as far as production goes. We'll be working hard to get everything done, QC in place and the amazing Candy Cane pillows to your front doors as soon as humanly possible. 

In the meantime we are here for you for any questions or concerns. Oh and happy new year!!!

Best wishes from us

Hurray :) and surveys
over 7 years ago – Tue, Dec 04, 2018 at 12:21:31 AM

Hi guys,

We're so excited to be able to bring you, your Candy Cane travel pillow and we are working a million miles a second to get them to you as amazing as you expect them to be and in the time we allotted ourselves. We are a beehive of activity to say the least :)

But before we get into whats happening on our end , we wanted to let you know that surveys will be out in the next 2 days so that we can get all your information early so we can plan our shipping profiles. This will also give you the option of adding anything you like from our Nisnas Industries shop to your order that you will be able to get nice and early as holiday gifts if you like, feel free to get excited about our gear here . 

Once the surveys are out we will send you your add-ons right away regardless of the timeline for delivery of the Candy Cane travel pillow. 

So look out for a survey from our partners at Bakcerkit within the next 2 days.

So what have we been up to with production you ask?

So we are now in the middle of a process to source materials that will make the Candy Cane considerably lighter and more durable. We are taking our time to get the materials perfect so that the seal and the feel of the pillow will remain perfect while the weight drops along with the dimensions. This means that the Candy Cane will be even more compact and easy to use than it currently is.

We will have images and sketches once we make a final decision on this as this is a labor intensive process, we want to show it off once we have the details on place. Expect this in our next update.

This means that the timeline stays as it is and we plan on finalising the shape in the coming days and moving on to pre-production. We will have lots to share as far as images and video once we are in that phase.

In the meantime this is a great time to field any questions you might have, we are here for you so please use the comment here to ask anything and we will gladly answer as we go through the process.

Alright, thanks for being a part of this :)

Showing off pre-production designs
over 7 years ago – Fri, Nov 09, 2018 at 07:31:20 AM

Hi guys,

So we're getting into the home stretch. It's an exciting time for us. It's exciting because as kickstarter veterans we know that getting into production while the campaign is live is vital for success so we have already begun production with pre-production samples gearing up for production. 

We wanted to take the time to show off some look-and-feel of the pre-production pieces with some nice finish and texture to show off. 

With that in mind we want to invite you to our next live session to show it off, we'll have this session on Tuesday with a complete Q&A session to cover everything from shipping to texture to methods of inflation.

An invite to the live session will be sent out on sunday.

Hi guys,

We just wanted to reach-out and let you guys know that we just rocketed past 1000 backers :). 

This is a huge deal for us and a great vote of confidence in our campaign. We wanted to take this opportunity to say thank you to all of our backers and to use the opportunity to answer any questions you guys might have. 

We know lots of you have questions on the Candy Cane: materials, production methods, warranty, ways to use it, tips for cleaning and more.

We wanted to invite you share your questions and thoughts here in the update and in the comments so that we can have a collaborative conversation on this. 

We're always happy to be an open and transparent resource for our backers.

So moving forward we have lots more in the works for you guys in the project. We will have 4 more live sessions to discuss different features of the Candy Cane, production methods, challenges of scaling up and lots more.

Stay tuned for this and more :)

And again, thank you all for being a part of this project, we are blown away by your support.

A live discussion on durability, and new reward levels for best value
over 7 years ago – Sun, Oct 21, 2018 at 01:22:05 PM

Hi guys,

Thanks for being a part of Candy Cane. We would'nt be here without you and it means a lot to us to have your ongoing support. 

See below a link to the live session we just had about durability, 

https://live.kickstarter.com/yossi-and-max/live/durability-testing-and-washability

it gives a pretty good run-through of the ways in which we address the issues of testing and of product durability. The candy Cane is nothing if not sturdy, super puncture resistant and washable. Again, checkout the link to see us walk you through the various aspects of the Candy Cane features as they pertain to longevity and durability.

Also, we have some amazing news on reward tiers:

We believe very strongly that you should have the absolute best service and best shipping with your chosen reward so we have gone to great lengths to provide optimised and expert level shipping for EVERYONE regardless of your pledge levels. We now have updated pledge levels for all you guys so feel free to use those if you like. 

How did we do this? In reality it's you guys who did this, now that we are close to 1000 backers deep we were able to approach our shipping chain and get pro-rates on the absolute best shipping for everyone. With this we are able to pass on the savings to you our backers. 

We want you all to know that we listen constantly to you, our community and for those of you who have been with us for several projects, you know that we do whatever we can to make sure that we listen and make changes as needed with you in mind. This goes towards our bags, tumblers, and now our travel pillow. So checkout the new rewards if you like, no pressure, we have more than three weeks till the end of the campaign so grab em whenever you like. They are not going anywhere :)

Alright, as always, if you have any questions or comments, we are here for you.

One note on comments, we know there is a tendency to be quick and sometimes negative on comments, try and keep em productive and positive, we promise as always to be attentive and respectful in return.

Cheers
