Water Blob Inflatable Water Slides - Sun Squad™: Water Toy for Kids Aged 5-12

This is the biggest waste of money. It takes over an hour to fill with water, easily gets holes, and heaven forbid you have to move it. It weighs so much with the water in it that you have to drain it then refill it. And you can’t fill the base with air, only water.

I would give this 0 stars if I could. We were swindled by the 70% off in store discount for a quick end of summer activity. It’s ridiculously hard to fill up. I sat there for 45 minutes holding it in place (because I

Yes, it does suck that it does not come with the hose connector to fill up the mat and you have to hold it in place for 10ish minutes (give or take) to fill it up BUT I found out that it’s much faster and easier to fill it up by putting the hose in the hole at the bottom of the mat where you drain the water! It’s a bigger hole. GAME CHANGER!! Or if it really bothers you, just buy a quick detachable connector for a few bucks. It does take a while to drain but I feel like all splash mats take some work to drain and dry anyway. It’s worth it for the fun. And it’s super cute! Other than that, this mat does its job and it’s so fun for the kids! It’s great that my kids can jump and slide on it. It’s a hit with my 8, 6, and 2 year old twins. I would say I got it on sale and it’s worth it for the sale price, not the full price, haha.

Great slip ‘n slide. The kids loved the water bubble and reduced the impact on their ribs. Lots of fun! They used it every day for a week. Even before breakfast was ready they’d be sliding on it.

Run away, do not purchase!! After about 45 min of me trying to fill, I gave up. Looking at it, looks like it did nothing. Tying to move it with how little water was in it, Impossible! Good luck trying to get the water out. This item is a huge joke!!

Whoever designed this should lose their job and never design a toy again. A single use of this thing wouldve told anyone with a functioning brain that it is literal garbage. It takes about 100 gallons of water to fill and weighs 500 lbs when it does. The hose doesn't connect cleanly to either port. Literal garbage, should be illegal to sell.

This is something we use almost daily and us adults and the children love it! Sure, it takes time to fill up, and sure, it uses a lot of water. But what do people expect with something this size that requires running water for the sprinkler? Don’t fill it up entirely and it still works wonderful. Remember, negative people are far more likely to review than positive people. None of these problems are a big deal.

I have mixed feelings on this one. My kids (6 & 11) do like it a lot. We have a small yard and they use it kind of like a slip and slide. BUT it’s a pain to fill and empty. You have to just accept that you will get soaked trying to fill it. There is no way to hold the hose in place, so you have to hold it the whole time you’re filling it… Which takes at least 30 minutes. Emptying it also took me a long time and I had to kind of jump on it and push the water out. I’m pretty sure I didn’t even get it all out. Because we have it on grass, I can’t leave it inflated for more than a few days. It is super heavy when it’s full and it can’t be moved from place to place in order to prevent the grass from getting messed up under it. Given those limitations, it is a fun toy, but there may be easier options. I got it on a 50% off sale. I am glad I didn’t pay full price.

Impossible to move with all the water in it. You have to drain the water out every time. Cute idea but in reality not great.

The kids had so much fun! It wasn't too bad to fill up once I realized there was a hole on the bottom too, also getting my hose to stick was a little challenging at first but after I just checked on it every 20/30 min until filled the sprinkler didn't work great with my hose but enough that the kids still had a blast sliding and jumping all over, even more so then the blow up slide we have. Other parents were asking where to get it.

Terrible to setup and disassemble

i don’t know why everyone is complaining about how long it takes to fill. not everything needs to be done in a rush. it’s worth the wait, and it’s awesome for Mom time tanning or the kids to lay on and get sprinkled. sometimes the fun just takes a little more time to set up and that’s OK!

This has kept our neighborhood entertained all summer! It works great for toddlers and big kids!

Would not purchase. Wish I could get a refund.

We buy one every summer and my kids get so much play out of it. Yes, you do need a thinner attachment to your hose to fill it up. But once it's filled as long as you don't have to move it you don't have to fill it again. They play in the sprinklers and then sometimes put blankets on it for a soft water bed hang out. Love it!

This thing requires the most unhinged amount of water, it's so unnecessary. I would return it if I could. If you do buy it, don't bother filling with water it takes forever and uses so much water.

The plug ripped off while filling up

Awful water blob. Have to stand there and hold water hose nozzle to fill entire blob. This needed to be designed with a hose adapter. This is a waste of water time and MONEY!

Neighborhood kids had a blast. But I bought in-store and didn’t look at reviews. If I had, I would have known that you have to fill the whole base with water- a ton of it. And worse… the valve is more for a dang air mattress pump, not a standard hose (or any hose). The sprinkler feature works with a hose. But to fill the “blob” you have to sit there for an hour or more and manually hold the hose in place. Really bad design guys. I wish I could get my money back, just because there’s no way I’m gonna sit here and fill it with that much water, carefully guiding it, every time.

Yes, you have to hold the hose to fill it up. I sat in a chair and played on my phone with one hand and held it with the other, took about 30 minutes to fill. I bought it for my 3.5 year old son and his cousins (ages 3-9). The 9 year old weighs about 170 pounds and it held him just fine. They had a BLAST on this thing. They played on it for hours and were back out the next morning to play on it. It’s a total PITA to fill but once it’s filled it’s done and it’s a huge hit with all the kids. Totally worth it, people just dont want to take time fill it so they’re giving it low reviews which is unfair because this product is awesome.
