Love it!
I have literally bought several HUNDREDS of toys but this is one of my top 5 summer toys for my kids. I wasn't able to take it out last summer due to it raining every single day 😒 but this year, it looks like we actually may have a summer and the kids were elated that they were able to play with it once again.Pros: Provides many hours of fun. Keeps kids entertained and out of my hair. My 8 year old still loves to play with it so you can get plenty of use out of it. Heck even I like to play around with the taps! 😆 Good quality product. Cleverly designed. Keeps kids off the tablet and gets them thinking about how things work. Fantastic summer toy that can be played by just one kid or shared with a few.Cons: Bit of an arse to put together but when set up it will stay up. Leaks water at the bottom for some reason. Taps are too tough for my 4 year old to turn on / off. Can only use in on warm days as kids inevitably get soaking wet. Bulky so storing it in my house is a bit of an issue in the colder months.Would I recommend it? Definitely! It's made summer so much more fun in my house! My kids absolutely love it and I get a lovely break!

Keeps them busy for ages!
We bought this for our 4 year old autistic son for an Easter present. He adores playing with water at nursery and given the current good weather it worked out nicely. Amazon delivered the package next day but the box was open which we wernt to happy about. Luckily everything was included. It took about 30 Min to assemble even with the instructions. My son adores it and so far it has lasted 2 hours of non stop playing. I don't honestly think it's worth the full rrp and it looks nothing like the advert on the TV! but we paid £45 and we were happy to pay that for how much pleasure it's bought him. It's quite sturdy and has enough space to fit about 3 young children around it. As others have mentioned the tubes are kinked in arrival and do need some improvement by little tykes really. I would happily purchase it again though as we struggle with paddling pools for space and saftey issues. Plus you have to find somewhere for them to live over the winter. I think if your starting out and have young children (2 years plus) it would be great as it's sturdy enough for them to toddle around without the fear of it falling on them!

Reliable sandpit for hours of delightful messy play
As a childminder, I purchased this item as sand-play is arguably one of the top 5 'musts' for fun, learning and development in early years. Initially I thought 'oh no, more plastic!' but after borrowing a friend's Little Tikes bouncy castle recently, I knew their products are tough and well made/designed. I have not been disappointed with this one. The pit holds plenty of sand, and this week legs have been buried, giving the authentic beach experience. There was enough comfortable space for a 5 and a 3 year old, and when the 1 yr old toddler joined there was a still a cosy - not cramped - feel about the play going on. Seats on the edge are a good idea, and serve the intended purpose. Yes, lid is a touch light and design could go a bit further to include clips of some description, but windy weather simply means that something will be put on top in the general tidying up process. HOWEVER, the best feature for me is that this sandpit allows water can practically be added into the mix! Sand and water go together like bread and butter - they are meant for each other. On our patio, water has been added to make rivers, moats, tides going in and tides going out, rock pools, mud pies and body covering. In no way could I imagine this going on with other sandpits on the Amazon list that only have an internal groundsheet or wood that needs to be treated annually (sorry, don't have time for that!). OK, water has to be drained away manually with cups and small containers, but hey - even I got carried away watching the sand and water making rivers and mini-lakes as I worked out how to fill each container-full with water... Very relaxing! Damp sand can then be dried off by leaving the lid off during the day (not the night due to cats etc). I have recommended this sandpit to parents I work with, and I recommend it to Amazon purchasers. Great value for money.

Great fun!
Was skeptical as the reviews were mixed, but it’s a great water table, I have a 2 year old and an 8 month old and they both love it and I know it’ll get a lot of use in the future!

Fantastic
The sandbox is great. It is large. Three or four children can easily fit in while playing. The sandbox is made of very good material. The product is identical to the one on the amazon website.
