"We bought this slide last summer for our twin sons' birthday. I was hesitant because of the bad reviews but after checking the prices to rent one, decided to give it a try. It made it through the party with 10 kids climbing all over it having a blast. We used it several more times with no problems and then stored it for the winter. We pulled it out this year and it blew right up. We just took it to a friends house for the 4th of July and had 15 kids ranging from 5 to 13 years old again climbing all on it. To be honest they were being very rough on it so I didn't expect it to make it through the day. Six hours later we took it down and it was still in tact. All the parents were very impressed with it and were asking where we got it. I've never taken the time to review an item before, but decided to make the effort as I think this was well worth the price we paid. Yes it's expensive, but compared to renting one for four hours for $250, if you get more than one use out of it for a party it has already paid for itself."

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

"we bought this product last summer. at the time, we were buying for a party instead of renting a bounce house, same money and if we used it even one more time, we save! we had at least 30 kids on the slide and we had to watch them so that all 30 were not trying to go down at once. Some common sense on the part of the adults and we had a great time! Our slide has entertained and entertained! WE LOVE IT!!!! Key to long life is to pack it away properly. You absolutely must make sure it is dried out before putting it away. Think about camping equipment...if you pack away a wet tent, it will mold and deteriorate. We love it and will be using ours again next summer...3 summers worth of waterslide, the whole neighborhood loves it! We have had kids as old as 14, weighing as much as 200 pounds....some adults have used it, but we would not recommend that too often...they tended to go off the end!"

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
