Bestway Hydro Force Detachable Summer Slide Inflatable Activity Island with Cup Holders and Heavy Duty Handles for Easy Transport

We purchased this float, more like a mini pontoon, for a family day at the lake. It was amazing and we all had so much fun relaxing and playing on it. It was so sturdy that we didn’t feel like we had to baby it. It took about 15 minutes to inflate with a power inflator we purchased at Home Depot. I would suggest getting a good quality inflator as it’s a huge raft.There were no downsides to this purchase. I would suggest that they do away with the cheap cooler/lunch bag that they include in the purchase. We tossed ours in the trash halfway thru the day. It doesn’t keep water in or out and it didn’t keep anything cold.Two suggestions:1. Power inflator is a must. We got battery operated one from the power tool section at Home Depot. No way we would want to use a foot pump for that thing!2. Purchase a big/deep tote or a heavy duty bag to store it and carry it around. It’s 56 pounds and doesn’t fit back in the box. We got a tote so it wouldn’t get damaged.

Bought this for the family lake house in Minn so the family could have a destination to swim to off the dock. Inflating this took some time due to all the different air zones, but once inflated it kept the air quite well. Understanding that it was made with the typical floatie type vinyl/plastic I didn’t really think it would hold up, but it did. We would bring it on shore at night due to wind and waves but there was a night that we forgot and a major storm came through. Thinking that this floatie island sunk to the bottom or was ripped up and was hanging on someone else’s dock, we headed out in the morn to retrieve what was left. Surprisingly, the floatie was only 10’ away from where we anchored it, totally fine and still inflated with the canopy still attached on one side. Checked it out and nothing was torn or broken.Impressed!Great place to hang out with adults and kids alike, and for those who tend to burn easily, can get out from the sun via under the canopy.For the money, it’s definitely worth it. Recommend.

Creo que debería traer un forro para guardarlo lueho, fuera de eso muy bien de todo

The media could not be loaded. This thing is robust…we thought for sure that it was a goner when that water started to maul it, but even flying 10 feet in the air with a waterfall pummeling it, the handles stayed strong and it stayed inflated the rest of our trip. Also withstood 12 grown adults jumping and manhandling it for Lake Powell Olympics. Definitely would recommend as a great group “floatie”Only con is that the canopy portion is a little flimsy…it couldn’t handle the waterfall. But that’s fair, neither could I.

This thing is the best ever! I don’t care what anyone says! Sturdy material. We took it on the lower salt in arizona for tubing and it was so much fun for the family! There was another one with 8 people on it passing us too! Lol You definitely need at least two people to get it in the water after you inflate it. I highly recommend getting the intex brand pump.. we tried the one suggested for it on Amazon (some off brand thing) but it doesn’t pump as well and didn’t push out enough to fill it all the way.. i also highly recommend getting a storage cart with wheels.. it’s a heavy beast! We got a 40 gallon from Lowe’s for $40 and it was well worth it and fits perfect! This doesn’t come with an anchor so if you plan on going to a lake and or ocean get one! Buy some paddles too! They come in handy!

I bought this $200 product back in April just in case it was sold out for the summer. I opened it up on memorial day the same day I opened up my pool. I inflated it on a smooth grass surface. I Did everything perfectly correct. About 2 1/2 hours later it was deflated. (The main base that is the main structure was totally deflated) NOTE: it was not even used yet. It was literally just placed on my grass. I contacted the company they told me what to do. And I followed their instructions to a T. I found a pinhole leak near the seam, using a soapy solution as they advised to use.I used the patch that came with the product and inflated it once again. About 2 1/2 hours later once again, totally deflated, and their patch did not hold whatsoever. I contacted the company and let them know that their patch did not hold. And they said because it was over their 30 day warranty. I was not covered at all. I’m all for a 30 day warranty. But if you’re sending me an item ( their patch) to fix your product in case there’s a default on it and it doesn’t work, then how in the world is that my fault?? The patch that you literally sent me to fix your product was faulty. And that’s my fault?Warranty or not. You literally sent me an item that was intended to fix your product in case there was a default to it. And that product ( the patch) that was intended to fix a leak did not fix your facility product. So now I’m out over $200. Not ethical at all. Buy at your own risk

We bought this for a weekend on the lake with 5 adults and 5 kids. It’s was PERFECT. The canopy was a life saver for littles needing out of the sun. Cooler was perfect size for drinks and snacks. Can easily be carried with 2-3 adults once inflated. We used a portable air pump and had it filled up and ready to go in about 20 minutes! Very sturdy vinyl material. Easy to deflate.

So far product is good. We will use it once a year.
