GREAT GREAT GREAT
I got this toy as a gift and it was so much fun and now my brother cant say I cant swim AND I TRY NOT TO TEASE HIM ABOUT IT BUT THIS TOY IS FUN AND FAIRLY CHEAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

awesome
my kid is 9 years old and he LOVES this cruiser. my older kids actually get in the pool and play with it too. they are 16 and 19. it is safe and all around just a great item. its inexpensive too! ---probably one of the kids most favorite toys!!

I WAS TRICKED
I purchased this after reading the reviews and the age limits and I am angry. When it came age stated on the box was a much younger age limit and a maximum weight of 80 pounds that was stated no where. Picture of a young child was on cover of box looked like a baby gift for a 12 year old. It was for a birthday present and had to be given, but I was not told the truth in the description by Amazon.I feel I was stolen from.Item cute as can be though. ... Read more

Thinking about it
I`m looking for a toy that will be both good inside and out. I know this is for outside but if you have the space and want a cool place to chill out, this might be it! I haven't purchsed this toy but it looks like a lot of fun! The only reson I rated this toy 3 stars for durability is because of other reviews. I know I said I don't have it yet but I could'nt write this review without giving it stars. So don't decide if you will buy this toy because of me.

Disappointing
I agree with the other disappointed review. The rainbow didn't curve, the dolphins didn't stand up, and the pool kept deflating (obviously a hole in it). Too much work for a nice sunny day when I just want to go out and play with my toddler, not work while my toddler plays. I'm going back to a standard plastic pool after this experience.

Spring & Summer Fun
This kiddie pool is fantastic for my active 15-month old daughter. She gets excited seeing the dolphins and loves walking under the rainbow.The bright colors get her attention very quickly. ... Read more

Pain in the a$$
don't waste your money here. this pool is a bear to setup and will most likely cost you as much in lost water as the pool itself. Very aggravating to get setup and requires constant maintenance. When they say level ground, they mean perfectly level. UNfortunately, this is not a good solution and the old adage "you get what you pay for" is accurate once again. Customer Service is almost non-existent and if you want proof look up intex-corp on the better business bureau site.

Soo fuun!
I just love this pool, me and my budies swim around in it all the time and its so good to have a poolparty in it! My parents likes to swim in it too and that is so good beacouse when we swim around in that pool the hole family is togheter and that wasent often before but now it is!

Great Pool, but not that easy to fold up
I give this pool 5 stars! It is not easy to fold up at all! It does not deter me from using it. You blow up a small ring & it fills up fast. There is a plug underneath for draining, but it works better if you prop something under the pool next to the hole for more efficiant draining... otherwise it drains very slow.

dimentions
I just saw this pool in a catalog - same exact for $40.00 - the dimentions are 60 inches round by 1 foot deep.I decided to come to this site to see if Toys R Us had it any cheaper - and it's 1/2 the price I will be purchasing it right now!

dimensions?

great toy for over 4
My son go the big bubbler from the easter bunny and we have used it just about everyday since. He loves the huge bubbles, its really a lot of fun. It is to long for a 3 year old to use alone. My son is 3 1/2 and he can pull the wand out from the holder by himself, its just to long and akward. I hold the case though and he can easily put the wand in and pull it out for the huge bubbles. I would buy it again!

IF YOUR CHILD LOVES BUBBLES...THEN THIS IS A "MUST"!
I have two boys 4yrs. and 7yrs. old...And this easter...They got this item in their baskets. I MUST SAY IT IS THE COOLEST TOY! And of course being new...I had to see "just how it worked" before turning it over to them...

Well it was hard to give over. I was having such a blast with the large bubbles that it makes.

My 4 yr. old needs NO assistance in using this item. Though the area that holds the bubbles doesn't stand...And he is sort of small to hold it and enjoy the full effect of the bubble/sword maker. That I just tucked that part on a lawn chair. And they both were outside for over an hour! I was so thrilled when they found something else to do. For it left the bubbler open for mom to have her fun!

My 4 yr. old also went in a circle and made a unique bubble that looked like a donut! I wish I had my camera out for that momment. So...next time we have them out...Camera will be waiting a SWEET momment to capture.

Editorial Review

Little kids (and their dogs) will love cooling off in this63-square-inch wading pool. Parents will appreciate the fact that it comeswith a detachable, inflatable roof that acts as a sun shade. Holding 102gallons of water, the pool has a blue interior, a red band around the rim, andwhite exterior walls decorated with colorful fish. The pool and roof canbe inflated using a small mouth valve or a larger valve designed forfoot pumps. The roof is attached with Velcro at the corners of the pooland its top is about 4 feet from the pool bottom. Made of heavy-dutyplastic, the pool should last for a long time, but a patch piece isincluded for emergency repairs. --Richard Farr ... Read more

Bought it as a big ball pit!
My two year old son loves to play in ball pits, the problem is that all the real ball pits on the market allow for the balls to spill out (I'm sure to avoid lawsuits) after the first layer of balls, so he could never really "swim" in them like at those big parks or Chuck E. Cheese's. So I picked this one up and used it as a ball pit. It's perfect because it's close to the ground so he can run and jump inside, and it's a great size. Not too big, not too small. It's takes about 600-700 balls to fill up and it takes the usual "ruff-housing" that is associated with ball pits. The best part is that it came with a diffrent pattern that from the picture, not fish on the side but balls, so it turned out great.

punctured in one day
We received this pool as a present for our 1 year old.She had so much fun with it.She was able to get in and out of the pool on her own (she figured out you could hold on to the corners while swinging your feet in).She loved the inflatable sides- she would hang over them and splash in the water.However, this pool lasted only one afternoon before it got a hole in the lower chamber.I tried patching it twice but the pool was deflated the next day.As for the sun shade, our daughter thought it was a game pulling it off the velcro.It was not sturdy at all.I am going out tomorrow to buy a hard plastic pool!

Sun shade pool
When I purchased this pool I thought it would be great to keep the sun off the kids. I blew up the 2 pieces with a electric pump and the canopy would not stay full of air and it was too heavy to stay up. They only have velcro to hold it in place. I ended up throwing the canopy away because it was a waste of time. The pool itself was awesome. It held up to a typhoon when it was full of water. ... Read more

My Son loves it!
I bought this toy for my son and he loves it! We have been playing with it the past 2 days because the weather has finally been so nice out! The bubbles float over our house and when they pop vapor comes out.Truly AMAZING!!He has become the hit of neighborhood boys.

Best Bubble gun ever!! BUY IT!!!!
Me and my cousin loves this thing. But the only thing we hate is when we have to dip it into the cap. It comes with vapor fluid and bubble liquid. I like when the smoke comes out of the bubbles
i think its realy cool. Whoever likes bubbles BUY IT!!! ... Read more

DISAPPOINTING AFTER A FEW USES!
This toy is great at first, after a few uses it stopped working,I cleaned the inside and the battery compartment out of all solution and it still did not work.I did not overfill just stopped working.Good for a cheap thrill that is about all:O)

Great! --- if it wouldn't croak so quickly ...
This bubble machine's life is VERY limited. We had one for a few weeks and got another for a birthday present just in time as the first one croaked. Now 2 weeks later the new one is dead. I will keep returning it to get it replaced throughout the summer because the idea is fantastic and the kids LOVE it (the dogs too). I guess you get what you pay for. $12 for a couple weeks of entertainment is pretty good.

Fun while they (yes, we've been through 3) lasted
Great fun to begin with, tons and tons of bubbles.

Unfortunately we haven't had one live more than a week or so - we don't overfill it, we clean it with each use, we store it indoors, we replace the batteries to verify that isn't the issue, etc.

They simply aren't durable. ... Read more

One of WHAM-O's longest, craziest Slip 'n' Slides, the Super Geyser lets kids cool down whilesliding along 22 feet of rugged vinyl into a large, inflatable splash pool. Tricked out with a colorful tikitheme, the Super G has a blowup slide bar near the top (to make sure kids slide out straight) and a wild tikitunnel with geyser jets that soak kids as they zip by. Once you've hooked up your hose, hundreds of waterjets keep the sliding surface slick. A set of safe, plastic stakes keep the slide from slipping. --Paul Hughes ... Read more

PLEASE READ THIS IF YOU GOT HURT USING THIS TOY!
If you got hurt using this toy you are using it wrong. When you are approaching the start of the slide, you are supposed to bend down with your knees then ONCE YOU ARE LOW, you can push of with your legs onto the slide. (...) Your not supposed to jump really high like you think your some kind of bird! You have to GET LOW first. Anyway, I did not buy this toy I bought the originol slip n' slide with no tunnel. It is a very good toy, IF..., you use it right....

Worked for us
I have read many complaints on this toy, but for us it worked as advertised. We even set it up on a hill and had no durability problems. I don't think it has enough life expectancy to become a family heirloom, but if you realize it's a sheet of plastic, you won't be set up for disappointment. My only complaint is that it uses water as an anchor in the supports for the arches. Because the arches are not transparent it isn't clear when there is enough water in the supports, making it easy to overfill. Overall a good toy, buy it.

Lotsa fun
My grandson and his friends loved it at the party for his ninth birthday!A year from now, it will be worn out and thrown out and probably very uncool anyway, but it was perfect for him at this age.Boys should be encouraged and allowed to be boys, and I think this did the trick! ... Read more

Tooting in the Tub
My 6 and 9 year old boys both love this toy. They usually take showers now because they're big boys but the first day we had the flutes they both spent about 2 hours in the tub. The song book pages are laminated so they won't fall apart if they fall in the water. I even heard my husband trying them out, so they were a big hit in the house. I'm going to get the water drums for them for Christmas. ... Read more

Kids love it
We aren't ready for a regular pool so we got this for our girls.They love it.They have to be reminded not to hang on the sides but loved how deep it is because they can move around but also swim underwater. The only suggestion I have is fill the air ring and let it sit overnight before filling.We had a hole.We didn't know it until the next morning when we had filled it with the water.We were not about to go through the expense of refilling it, that's alot of water!So we just pumped on a daily basis to keep it up until it really started going down at the end of the summer.We couldn't find the leak which was frustrating.However we purchased the extended warranty so weren't worried.When we returned it we were actually still under manufacturers warranty and the company was great.We sent the required pieces back and recieved the new pool in no time.You have to love company support like that.
I really recommend this for those who can't afford or desire a regular pool.

What about holes???
I'm surprised that no one else has had a problem with holes!It's a little hard to locate a hole in the top of a swimming pool.If you try to put it under water, all of the water comes out.You could walk around with a spray bottle, but that's like finding a needle in a haystack!I spent $100.00 on one of these pools and had to throw it away at the end of the summer.Also, no one has mentioned anything about rain.Several times our pool would fill up so high that ALL of the water would overflow onto the ground.This wouldn't happen with a metal pool.It seems like these "Easy Pool Sets" are taking over all of the stores, and it's almost impossible to find a metal pool, unless you want to spend $1,000.00 or more!

Fuuun!!!
Oh, i love this pool, it`s sooo big. You just got to buy it!!! ... Read more

Editorial Review

Meant to simulate the fun activities found at water theme parks, the Splash Balls Sprinkler is way wackier than an ordinary sprinkler system. When the hot weather arrives, this crazy-looking sprinkler easily attaches to the end of any garden hose. Turn the water on and the sprinkler’s "arms" start wiggling around and spraying water from the foam balls on their ends. Eight colorful and wildly flailing hoses on the sprinkler’s head further soak anyone in the immediate area. The sprinkler stands over 3 feet tall and comes with a ground stake that keeps it sturdily planted in a grassy backyard. The balls and hoses are also securely attached for safety. --Cristina Vaamonde ... Read more

Kids loved it, hard to keep in ground
I bought this toy for an outside party for my son. The kids loved it! The only problem we had was keeping it in the ground once the grass got soaked. I would buy it again.

Great Sprinkler, Great Price!
This is a great sprinkler overall.I operate a home daycare and the kids love running through the water on hot afternoons.And, I can control how crazy the water comes out by changing the water pressure in the hose.

My only problem with the sprinkler has been getting it to stay upright.I can't get the plastic spikes on the bottom into my lawn.I've tried standing it up in a bucket of gravel but that's not working well either!So make sure you have a 'soft' area to stick the spikes in.

Great sprinkler for getting soaked!!
My daughter is 16 months old and absolutely loves this sprinkler.I bought it for my nephew's birthday and all the kids had a blast.

My only problem is that the foam tears easily, but does not affect the sprinkler at all.You just have to make sure the kids don't tug at the arms.

A great value for the price!! ... Read more

Picture is not real
The picture on the box was edited to make the pool look larger then what it is.DO NOT buy this product it is big enough for 1 child, not the 4-5 you see on th box

Popped twice!
We purchased this pool because it is cute and had unique features like a slide AND water spray....HOWEVER the slide popped within the first 10 minutes of use. The patch didn't work.We bought another one hoping we'd have better luck and the same thing happened.DO NOT BUY this item!They need to come out with a "natural" looking plastic pool and slide combo.

Not Durable
We got this for our 18 month old little girl.She loved it, but sadly she only got to use it one time.The very day we inflated it, we noticed a leak...got to looking and there was a tear on one side.We patched it and then found another tear.It did not last even one day. ... Read more

My nephews love these!
I bought these for my nephews and they totally love them!

My sister says they won't go in the bath without them. They tap on the drums and then tap on the tub, wall, and spout to get all kinds of cool sounds and rhythms going. They also use them to dump water on their head to rinse shampoo and as a view scope to see the bottom of the tub through the bubble bath.

Good clean fun. Highly recommended.

You may as well throw your money into the nearest trash can
My kids couldnt wait until I put this together for them to play with it. After 10 minutes with it they were both crying because it wouldn't blow bubbles, and they could hardly push it. Despite my husbands and my best efforts we couldnt get this thing to work. I give up, it is going in the garbage.

a piece of junk
Do not by this mower.It doesn't blow any bubbles, and is difficult to push.My three-year old was very disappointed and so was I.I checked the directions and we were doing everything correctly...directions are simple....We'll be returning it promptly for a refund.

disappointed in quality
we bought this pool for our 3 kids (6, 4, 2 years). The pool comes with lots of activities. The slide was what attracted my kids to this particular pool. Unfortunately, after a few uses the slide teared at the seams. I needed to tape up the slide, but I'm sure we won't get the season out of this pool. My kids still have a blast in the pool. It is really hard to empty the water. The one drain plug isn't enough. I usually have to scoop water out and then tip it upside down.

Great Pool
We got this for my 1 year old daughters birthday party last year! It is just GREAT! I would say we had atleast 20 kids in and out of the pool going down the slide, etc... and it has held up wonderfully! We have taken it out again this year and it is still nt great shape, it is a pain to deflat and inflate but luckily we have a garage we can store it in and leave it half inflated! But I highly recommend this pool my daughter loves it!! A++++++++

Nice Pool
I got this for my four year old last year.It's very cute and he enjoyed it.However, there are several parts and pieces to inflate and deflate. If you don't have some kind of electric pump don't even consider this pool. Honestly deflating the stuff took more time though.
So, as far as enjoyability, the kinds love this pool.We used it for my son's birthday party and several kids played fine in and around it.But, you as a parent are not going to enjoy the time it takes to put it up and down (if you're not going to just leave it inflated in your backyard all summer).
I have this pool to use once and a while, and I have a little purple plastic one for quick everyday use. ... Read more

What child doesn't associate summer with carefree afternoons spent in the yard running through the sprinkler? This cute plastic cat, dog and mouse sprinkler is easily connected to any garden hose (not included) and features functions that will grow along with your child.Young tots can push the mouse down for a stationary sprinkler with a gentle water spray; while older children can move the mouse to the "up" position and watch the dog chase the cat, shooting water in all directions for lots of spraying, splashing fun.--Deb Oroszlan ...

Where's the air?
This is a great pool if love buying it over and over again. We've had fun buying it 4 times in 2 summers. Our latest only lasted about 2 months and these definately will not make it from season to season. Too bad. My kids love it so much they have purchased 2 pools with their own money because I refused to continue to buy a product with such poor durability. I give it a thumbs down.

grandmommy
I loved the pool. It was big enough for me to get in with my grandson who is only four. I didn't completely fill the pool so there wasn't too much water for his size--and I was in too. There was enough room and water for him to use a little swim ring to float around and plenty of room to play.

However, there should be a sign on the pool box that reads THIS POOL MUST BE INFLATED WITH AN ELECTRIC PUMP!!!!! I tried everything to get air in. I tried for hours! I made two trips to the hardware store carrying the pool box with me. I bought a bicycle pump and then went back and bought an attachment. Nothing worked. I had to go to WalMart--out of the way from where I live--and buy an electric pump. I wanted it inflated and ready when he came to visit and I wasn't expecting not to be able to use a bicycle pump or ME to blow it up. I didn't have it ready for him and that was disappointing. If I KNEW what to expect, then I could have planned better.

One thing I did which was good was to buy a piece of carpet pad the size of the pool to put underneath. Since I had the pool in my driveway, this was a great thing.
