 great fun February 25, 2010

This is a very nice slide for above ground pools. This is our third one. The first one got a hole in it and intex replaced it at no charge. The second one got a hole in it somewhere and we couldn't find it, so I called intex and they said they don't replace inflatables. so we just threw it away and bought a new one from Amazon. We figured if it costs us under [...] a year it will be worth it for my grandkids and the daycare kids I have in my home. They would be disappointed if I could not find another one...
Great fun! August 5, 2009

I'm pretty cynical about inflatables; they are so prone to developing problems, and that leads to broken hearts. My grandchildren however, are growing so fast that I am challenged every year to find a pool toy they can enjoy. This was the best I have ever had. Although it is pretty large for my small backyard, it was a riot to watch them. It is all soft, even a small child could use it with supervision.

I HAD BOUGHT THIS SLIDE FOR MY CHILD. THE FIRST TIME WE USED IT THERE WAS ONLY 4 CHILDREN YEARS 6 TO 8. THE SLIDE SECTION BEGAN TO LEAK AIR I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO FIND ANY LEAKS. THIS SECTION JUST WILL NOT HOLD THE AIR.
 fun but not durable July 3, 2009

I have bought a new one of these each year for my kids and by the end of the season the seams have come apart. For the fun, it was worth it, but now they are near 100lbs and the slide has lasted only a few weeks (and this is on top of me adding water proof duct tape to add extra strength). I am not sure whether they are not making it as well, but it is just not worth the hassle and cost to keep replacing it, unless they started selling them in 6-packs. So while it is fun, I can no longer recommend the slide, especially now it seems they have raised the price quite alot.
I would give it zero stars if I could June 26, 2009

I bought the slide in April. The first day it was fine, and my kids (40 and 65 lbs.) had fun on it. The next time we came outside, the slide had deflated slightly. We continued to use the slide sparingly.
Recently, I decided to find the leak and to patch it. I used soapy water in a squirt bottle to locate the leak on the upper left hand portion of the slide. The seam had separated with the tear/hole being about 1/4" in length. Being on the seam (and towards the top of the slide), the hole is nearly impossible to patch. I had resigned myself to blowing up the slide whenever the kids wanted to use it.
However, the last time my kids were using the slide, the water stopped coming out of one of the sprinkler fittings at the top. When I moved the slide later, I found that it had a lot of water inside the slide. I tried to air the slide up again, only to have air now leaking out of the water hose connector. The slide is now worthless (about 60 days after purchase and approximately 5 times being used.)
I contacted Intex and was told that there is "zero warranty from Day 1." Wow! What a crock. Intex, you will never get one more red cent out of me or my family. Don't waste your money on this piece of garbage.
