I was on the fence for a while about buying an inflatable water slide for my two kids- 5 and almost 3. My only regret is not doing it sooner. We’ve entertained 8 kids for hours non-stop with this thing. It’s made well and I’m hopeful we’ll get years of use out of it. I chose this particular slide because the actual slide part, while pretty high, has nice tall sides to keep kids safe. I also like that it has a water cannon and a large “pool” area. Highly recommend and would buy again!
