I bought this for birthday parties for my kids. I've now used it 4 times, and its a big hit. I did a bunch of research, and for the price, I don't think this one can be beat. It seems very well made, with thick material. It inflates very quickly (i.e. just a minute or two), and packs up relatively easily. Very heavy, which is fine. Its also big, which is great. Friends have a bounce house they bought at a membership store....doesn't come close to this one in terms of size and quality.
