My experience with Ants On A Melon has been very positive overall, first with a user-friendly website where I ordered my products, then with a great service when I wanted to modify my order and finally with the products themselves, quality made, efficient and a pleasure to use.

First impressions
The package arrived today 2026-03-27, everything that should be there is in the shipment. So far I have unpacked and tried everything. Communication with the store was excellent. As for light painting, I am at the beginning. I will research everything and learn. I made a small mistake and that is that I did not read properly what is in the kit. The Pro Kit only contains short rods that model the light and one longer clear one. I will have to order longer tubes that model the light and another longer clear one in time. I am satisfied and can recommend the store.

Thank you so much, Martin!
We’re really glad everything arrived smoothly and that you’re off to a great start with light painting.
Appreciate your note about the kit as well. As you explore more, adding longer tubes will definitely open up even more possibilities.
Thanks again for the recommendation, and enjoy the learning process 🙂

Thanks for the great review! We're really happy to hear you're enjoying the RGB Critter BT, especially the different lighting modes and the app control.
Just to clarify for anyone reading, the extra charges some customers see are import duties or VAT charged by the destination country rather than American taxes from us. Unfortunately those are outside our control.
We really appreciate you taking the time to share your experience and hope your RGB Critter BT continues to bring you lots of fun!
They have been absolutely amazing
They have been absolutely amazing. They have a warranty for their product that they actually uphold to! They have great customer service. They’re fast! Reliable, and the product that they have to offer is top of the line! Whether you’re light painting and taking amazing photos! To flowing (like I do) with it and their fiber optic attachment. Which comes in regular and sparkle fibers!

I will give Ants on a Melon 5 stars
I will give Ants on a Melon 5 stars! The customer service has been exceptional and very quick to respond to my enquiries. The only negative was that the free shipping with UPS, my shipment got lost. However the team at Ants on a Melon were great to resend my order on the express service. I will highly recommend spending the extra money going with the express option and not rely on free shipping. Better yet, I would personally pay even more for shipping if they used DHL or Fedex. A glance at UPS rating is 1 out of 5 over thousands of ratings.

Hi Heinrich,
Thank you so much for the 5 stars and for sharing your experience. I am really glad to hear you were happy with our customer service and that your replacement order arrived safely.
I am very sorry again that your original shipment was lost with UPS. We know how frustrating that is and we appreciate your patience while we sorted it out. Your feedback about shipping options is very helpful. We definitely recommend the express option for time-sensitive orders, and we are also actively reviewing other carriers like DHL and FedEx to improve reliability for our customers.
Thank you again for your support and for taking the time to leave such a thoughtful review. It really means a lot.

I have been buying gear from AOAM for…
I have been buying gear from AOAM for years. So, when they came out with the new Critter through a Kickstarter campaign, I signed on. It took quite awhile for the Critters to actually come to market as there were issues with supplies and such, but Joel kept his investors informed throughout the process. When we finally got the product, Critter 2.0, it was heads-and-tails better than the first version. At first it was a little mind-boggling to figure it out, but an update and a manual made using it sooooo much better. Plus, they have continued to add innovative tools to their site, including adapters that play well with other light painting manufacturer's tools. That, and stellar responsiveness, what more can you ask for?

Andrea, thank you so much for taking the time to share this. It has been quite a journey from the original Critter to the BT version, and hearing that the improvements have made such a difference for you means a lot. I remember how long that Kickstarter stretch felt, and I truly appreciated everyone’s patience and support while we worked through supply issues and refined the design.
We are always working to make things easier to use, more versatile, and more fun, so it makes me really happy to hear that the updates, manuals, and new tools have helped. And thank you for noticing the adapters too. Building bridges between different light painting systems is something I love doing.
I’m grateful you’ve been with us for years, and I’m always here if you need anything or have ideas for future tools.

These whips are sturdy and reliable!
I absolutely love the whips from Ants On a Melon. This is my third fiber head in a different size and fiber count and I am just obsessed with the length and different shapes i can create with this whip.

Converted from glofx forever.
Shipping was super fast. Quality is top notch. I've had my glofx whips for years, did a little research and decided to buy an AOAM whip. Love it. Still figuring out the app, I do wish it was a little more user friendly. I can't seem to program a custom rainbow. Probably user error. It also has a hard time connecting at times, it will say connection error even though it's connected. But even the preset settings are gorgeous. The 7ft head is amazing for body wrap which is mostly my flow style. I had both of my whips out at our last event and hands down the AOAM was more vibrant, flowed better and got so many remarks. I saw on videos its possible to toggle off the power button, still trying to figure that out as well. Overall, quality and function are top notch.

Hi Amber,
I’m really sorry to hear that your experience with our shipping wasn’t helpful or clear — I completely understand how frustrating it can be when tracking doesn’t update for so long.
Your order was shipped using our free UPS Mail Innovations service, which is a low-cost option that typically takes 2–4 weeks for delivery. Tracking often pauses while packages are in bulk transit, especially before leaving the U.S. or while clearing customs. I can assure you your order is still on the way, and we’ve been keeping an eye on the tracking from our end as well.
We truly appreciate your patience and feedback — it helps us improve communication around this free shipping method for our international customers.
Best regards,
Indigo

2 "broken" critters , back to life!!
New Battery doors and battery troubleshooting helped my whips very much! Email and responses were timely. I originally emailed with concern and worry, and I was met with kindness and helpful information. I am more than satisfied with the AOM staff and their problem-solving skills considering I misnamed two items. Will be purchasing end caps to ensure critter safety! Thought I had the newest critter and realized I have the 1.0 and 2.0 , but will be keeping the type c charger for the next Critter I purchase. Am sad that the app is not compatible with my iPhone 11, but you get the same features if you are educated on how to program via buttons! The critter guides are downloadable and easy to navigate. Thank you again y'all!

So many color settings!
I'm obsessed!!! This whip is such a huge upgrade from the previous one I had. Being able to change and fully customize the colors on the app is amazing! Their customer service was also so responsive when I was trying to decide which fiber style to buy. 10/10 would recommend this to anyone who likes lights.
