Please recommend your inflatable ball pit...

Thinking of getting DS one on the small side. DH is going to kill me! Chat Icon But to see DS with it is worth it.

Whenever we go to play dates that have them, he goes right for it and loves it. Friends have this style...

But it looks like it encourages throwing balls out through holes. And the dimentions say

How much are you picking up balls everywhere? Is it worth it? If if means anything, DS is pretty good with clean up time... so far. Chat Icon

This one with the slide looks pretty fun but it's almost 4'x4'.

Which do you have? Please share pic or link and why you like or do not like it. Thanks!

E loves it! It's not too big and he loves watching the balls come down the track. He has started to put them on the track now too!

Ahhh! I just was reading reviews on that one and it looks cute! Is it really not big? The only store it shows in stock for instore pick up is Lake Grove. Just passed it today on my way home from Smithaven Mall. Just did not want to stretch Nolan's great shopping tolerance! Chat Icon I'll have to think if I can get over there again this week. Ugh!

Oh wait... yours is showing a price of $49. I'm looking at this on TRU for $29. Chat Icon Is it the same?

I wouldn't be looking for a $50 ball pit. The pyramid ones are like $18. The track is cool but not $50 cool. Chat Icon That would really be a divorce topic! Chat Icon

ETA: Same kids in the photos. Uh, photoshop?! Chat Icon

I don't think it takes up that much room. I have it in a corner. If you do get it, definitely get an extra hundred balls. It doesn't come with enough. I actually have added 200 balls and it is at max capacityChat Icon

I have the first one it's called Moose Mountain ball pit ($50). Honestly, the other one looks so similar and less $, I would go with that one! Did it get good reviews?

We had one similar to the first one you pictured and my DD loves it. We did't go overboard with balls either. i think it comes with like 50. Down side is. from her crawling in and out of it, she ripped the seam and deflated it within the 1st month.

Thanks guys! I think with my late timing, I'm just going to go to my TRU and see what they have (hoping for the one with the track of course! Chat Icon )

Re: Please recommend your inflatable ball pit...

Looks like a bust anyway... making some phone calls and finding sold out of any kind of ball pit. So if I see one in my last journey tomorrow, I'll snag it. If not, I'll get it after the holidays when I can. Maybe I'll get a super sale return!

Anyone see any physically in any stores?
