I like that this is easy to set up wish it was easier to fold but its ok were leaving ours on our sun porch for the summer and when its fall we will get it folded up and put back away because doing that every time is too hard. The slide is used by my 3 year old and 6 year old along with my niece whose 9 and nephews 2 and 6. All 5 of them play on it and go down one at a time it holds them all well.
My boys (3 and 5) got this recently, and it is beyond fun! We have had little friends over and they play until their little arms and legs are so tired they cant play anymore!! Its fun watching just how much fun they are having. It is nice and big and holds quite a bit of water on the bottom platform. The only downside is the clean up time. I still havent mastered the folding of the bounce slide!!
Busted along the seam when a 52 pound child walked on it. The company did provide refund as they didnt have a replacement. Found this upsetting my kids loved this the short time we had it. Plus we are still out $99 for a blower we no longer use.
This bouncy castle is great! We bought it for our 3 year old instead of renting one for almost the same price!! The quality is great, very easy to set up. A little hard to get back in the carrying bag, we will most likely put in a Rubbermaid tub. Came with patch kit which was a nice plus
We have a 6.5 year old and a 4 year old and they both love this slide. The weight limit per child is 110lbs so if the slide holds up they will be able to use it for many years to come. We also had family over and my 2.5 year old niece was able to climb up to the slide. Young children and adults can make use of the pool area at the bottom of the slide to cool off.
As it has been a cooler-than-normal spring so weve often used it without any water hooked up. The kids still loved it using the top as sort of a play house. Both my children can be a bit wild so Ive had to ensure they follow the rules: only climb up on the center, no going down the slide head first, no jumping off the top onto the bottom step, no trying to slide down the edge of the slide, no hanging off the top of the slide, etc. We have had a few timeouts but no injuries.
Last weekend was a rare warm day and my youngest spent most of the day playing on the slide. I was worried about him getting sunburned, even with sunscreen, and was trying to bribe him with TV to come inside but he absolutely didnt want to.
Set up:
This inflates fully in less than 1.5 minutes. The plug doesnt fit in our protected outdoor outlet so we needed to use an extension cord. It took a little longer to set up the first time since the water leads had to be velcroed in place. If you are looking at the front of the unit the water is attached to a tube on the back left side. The tube you connect to the blower is slightly right of center back.
Pros:
This has been wonderful to provide a fun play structure that doesnt require building skills or take up space long term in your yard. It is also a great alternative to plastic walled wading pools which can be hard to store in the off seasons or inflatable pools which require patience or an air compressor to inflate.
Cons:
The downside is it does take a bit to dry out fully to store. It is also large and hard to refold. Most days I simply stuff it into an old calf hutch turned playhouse (it is sort of like a small plastic shed) outside. I do have a Basics 99-Gallon Resin Deck Storage Box I use for off season items in the garage and this is where it will be stored over the winter. You will also want to make sure you have an extension cord if you are using an outside outlet with any sort of cover on it as the plug is rather large.
I will be honest even knowing how much my kids like bounce houses I was still surprised by how much they have been playing with this slide. My little guy likes to climb on things and be up high so Im sure that is part of it. Im hoping this will store well without molding but even if it only last this summer we will have gotten our moneys worth with easy screen free entertainment.
Note the swim suit on my younger child is the i play. Swim Sunsuit I LOVE this swim suit as it stays on his skinny frame and it also provides protection from the sun.

Handles several kids well
Have had it for a couple weeks and it seems sturdy and great quality! Handles several large kids rough housing on it with no issues.
Sturdy, good size for ages 3-9yrs.
Sturdy, easy to set up/break down. I would say recommended age is anywhere from 3-9yrs. So far we are loving it!
Very good slide no issues
I like that this is easy to set up wish it was easier to fold but its ok were leaving ours on our sun porch for the summer and when its fall we will get it folded up and put back away because doing that every time is too hard.

Bang For The Buck!
Any standard inflatable blower for amusement type inflatables will work, the higher the power the better stability. I opted for a 1500
FUN!!

Best ever
Best summer investment ever for toddler! My 5 year old and all of her friends love it, easy to put up and take down.
Busted-refund issued

Great addition to our backyard fun!
