This water keeps the kids occupied for hours. Very sturdy and lots of fun for a wide age group. Definitely the slide we were looking for. Many activities kept the kids attention. Only one issue. Top water sprayer put water over the back of the slide and many times sprayed the air fan. This is a concern to watch for when setting up and monitoring the kids.

We purchased this slide for my 7 year old's birthday party. He and all his friends had a great time!! My four year old loves it as well. The first time setup only took about 30 minutes. It was pretty simple and straight forward. When the kids were done, we drained the water which only takes about 2 minutes with two people. Then we left it up in the warm breeze for a few hours to dry. We found we could not roll it up to fit in the storage bag it came with, so we just roll it up and store it in our shed. The last time we used it, it had been rolled up for about 2 months and when we unrolled it, there were some mildew stains. I think that is inevitable because some water does get inside the slide from all the heavy play. GREAT slide, worth the money and would buy again!!

We went back and forth about purchasing this for our 3 kids ages 5 1/2, 7 and 8 1/2 this past summer but finally caved. We read all the reviews everwhere we could find them. They are pretty true- it is kind of a bear to set up ( the first time) and always a bear to take down but well worth the joy our kids experienced using it.
The hardest thing was the first set up because you need to attach the water hose using the velcro on the top and you either need a ladder to do that or a child around 8 that can reach it.
Once that is over you leave it velcro'd on every time so it is much easier. We also had a bit of a flood issue when it was time to pack it in. As soon as you turn of the blower the water will start pouring out so if you have a slope of any kind be prepared for the possibility of plants or mulch washing away. We worked it out by guiding the water off the grass to our driveway. to get it into the garage for storage we folded it an dmanaged to heave it onto the kids little tikes wagon we have and wheeled it in. haven't even thought of trying the storage bag. Good luck with that!
I highly recommend it but be sure to check on city policy regarding these things. Our city has strict rules regarding pools that hold 2ft or more of water - you need a permit and a fence. This didnt fall under that rule but every city is different. Watch out for cranky neighbors too- once they realize it isnt permanent hopefully they will calm down. Oh and just an fyi-
walmart also had the best price when we shopped around:)

I purchased this waterslide for my daughters (2 1/2 and 1). The slide buckles under my 2 1/2 year old daughter who only weighs 29 lbs. The green step in the pool area collapes under the pressure of the water build up and the seams are all leaking and we have only used it twice but have owned it for 2 months.
We did everything the correct way for cleaning and storing but it has not held up.
I am very disappointed.

This slide was horrible.. NOT worth the money we spent on it. We bought it in May and it lasted until August. There is a rip in the seam. It is very hard to get the water out of the pool. Its horrible.

Just picked this up today at the local walmart for $249. it is an activity for grandmas house...Kids loved it, adults loved watchiing the kids loving the big water slide. The only thing that I did not like about it is that there is no padding underneath of where the slide ends...so essentially the kids hit their bottom every time they go down the slide...But, with enough water in the "pool" there shouldn't be a problem as the water line is 6-10 inches from the ground. perfect for little bottoms, not so great for uncles. Also, packing this item back up is a nightmare. You have this huge slide system adn a teeny tiny little bag to put it back in to. I think that I will be investing in to a rubbermaid container to store it in. Easy set up, kids loved it, and for $249, if it lasts a couple of summers, it's well worth it.

My husband and I bought this for our sons 1st bday, his cousins were coming over (ages 8 and under) so we thought this would be fun for them. It was!!! They were on it for hours, most of the party actually. It took 2 minutes to inflate and we were ready to fill it up and party. Definately met our expectations and can't wait to use it again. Definately worth your $.

My kids love this slide. I do have children older than the recommended age, but since they take turns it works out fine. The weight limit is 350, so even a 10 year old can enjoy. (I'm sorry to say my husband does as well). Just make sure that the heavier individuals go one at a time and it will work perfectly fine for you. I got mine on sale and thought it was a good value for the price.

I just picked this slide up yesterday. I have an 11, 8 and 2 year old. We purchased a Banzai Double cannon waterslide earlier this summer. The kids loved it, unfortunately it ripped at the seams. Luckily we bought it at Wal-Mart and they gave us an in store credit, so we ordered this Little Tikes slide. When we opened it we were all surprised at how big it is!! The kids were so excited!! They had all the neighbors over and everyone from the 11 year old to the 2 year old had a blast. The first thing my 2 year old wanted to do today was play on the waterslide!! I will try to review again later when we have used it for a while to let you know how it holds up.

I have a 7 yr old and 4 yr old. They love this waterslide. It was easy for me to setup. My only problem is drying and storing it. We bought a small shed to store it -- but if you don't have the time to let it dry, black marks are left on it (most likely mold). If anyone has suggestions on removing those, please let me know.

This product is not good. The bouncer portion only lasts 2 months and it won't fully inflate anymore. Little tikes does not stand behind their warranty. Something breaks or twists inside the bouncer - the liner. Not worth the money.

I bought this slide for my 3 year old son and we have had it about 2 months. He (and everybody else) LOVE it. Hours of fun! Easy to put up, but a pain to take down and put away. This will raise your water bill and kill your grass, but it's worth it. We bought a 50Gal rubbermaid tote to store it in.

The kids love this slide! the only problem is waiting for it to dry when puttting it away and we haven't figured out how to make it fit back into the bag it came in. But other than that it is worth every penny to have our kids busy and not fighting for a few hours!

I bought this slide for my sons first birthday party. All the kids loved it! It sets up very quickly and is easy to roll up and store when not in use. Occasionally I take my 1 year old out and we just splash around in the pool portion while my 9 & 14 year olds slide and play with us. Great product - would definitely recommend!

This product is loads of fun for our kids and their friends. While a little pricer than other options, the tunnel is a unique added feature. Our kids love to hide in there. Very durable and easy to set up. I just need to figure out where to store it when not in use.

We bought this for my daughter's 5th birthday and it was a huge hit! The kids had a blast - we had 10 kids ranging in age from 3-10. Everyone had a great time, and the slide held up really well. The only problem with it is it's heavy and bulky and more of a pain to deflate it, put it up and get it out again. It does flood the yard a bit too when you deflate it. But all in all it's a blast.

I'm extremely happy with this waterslide. My grandsons love it and think that it is totally awesome. They spend three hours at a time playing on it and I have to pull them off of it. It's very easy to inflate and to take down.
