See more 36:T4d9,As the hot summer had passed by the time we received the item, so this review is based on design, initial sense of quality, but not at this stage on actual practical use.So far - so good. Bestway are a well renowned manufacturer of all thinsg swimming pool, or cheaper outside paddling pools. More recently they are manufacturing slides, and manys a youtube video attesting to the fun that can be had. This item is a little diferent. COnsider a very large rubber picnic blanket that you fill with water to create a squishy rubber mat. Then add a hose pipe and have water squirt up to you as you jump on and off - a fun mat for sure. The design is excellent as - if you have one, the kids are going to love you. My concern would always be about longevity, and i take a pragmatic view of these types of product - if they last a summer, we got our moneys worth. As i look at the seams, the thickness of vinyl, I am sure that this will last a summer, quality looks good, however one accident and the thing will deflate, looking less happy than it should, enter the repair patch - you can shore it up to live another day - So on balance, ad in the absence of "really" trying it out, I would recommend. For £40 i think this looks like good value.41:T13eb,
