This is probably the best summer purchase we've made so far! My 4-year old son LOVES it! He'll be on it for hours and hours and he has a great time playing with his friends. It takes me about 10 minutes to set everything up and probably about the same amount of time to bring it down (before I let it sit in the sun to dry). The only change I'd ask is that the cord to be longer. The instructions say not to use an extension cord so we haven't but we'd like to set up the water slide around different locations as to not kill the grass in one area since we use it so often. Other than that, it's been a great summer toy for our son and we'd definitely buy another one in the future in a heartbeat!
