Inflatable water slide

I am looking to get one for my kids. Any suggestions on which one? I was looking at the alligator one bc it holds a total of 500 lbs, and the other ones seem to hold 150 lbs. But of course the alligator one is more expenseive and not sure if its as fun. I hate overthinking this stuff!

if it's meant just for kids to use, then the 150lb should be fine ...

I agree, we have a couple of Banzais that probably hold that and the kids have fun with them. It's difficult to get them dried out completely after using, so I imagine the larger ones are an even bigger pain.

Inflatable water slide

We had a Banzai --something-- Falls, one of our best summer toy purchases!!! My kids ranged up to 9 at the time and used it everyday.

We the biggest one we could swing $ wise bc my kids are dare devil. DH, friends, neighbors and I all went on it.

Ours lasted 3 summers. Would probably have lasted longer if we totally dried it and put it away every night. We were very diligent about drying it out completely and storing carefully over the winter,

We have one of the ones Little Tikes makes. I figured if it was a company based in the US, if something was faulty with it, they would be better at a refund/solution. It has lasted 2 seasons so far.

It is the biggest PITA to get it dry though! Chat Icon

I'm surprised about the positive Banzai reviews. I'm always afraid to buy one bc of horrible Amazon reviews.

We have two, no issues. I made sure I bought them from places with liberal return policies just in case. Kohl's and Walmart. My kids are not maniacs on them either, so that is probably why we haven't had issues
