This seemed like an awesome idea. My two boys, 1 1/2 and 3, played with it for only 15 minutes or so and that was it. They make it look like there's so much to do, but really it's just spraying water on a bunch of colored plastic.

I swear they use the tiniest children they can find for the photos for these things. Don't be fooled. This splash pool is small. The slide was way too small to be used. Even my 1 1/2 year old was bored with that after a couple goes. If I was holding him at the top, like the mom holding her daughter in this picture, his feet would nearly touch the end of the slide. And no, he's not particularly tall. My 3 year old is very tall and he had no fun with this thing whatsoever.

My kids received it as a gift from grandma. Thankfully she said she spent only twenty on it, not the eighty they're selling it for here. At best my boys were simply too old for it (grandma has a habit of buying for "babies"). But regardless, I was unimpressed. Not worth the purchase or the 1000s of gallons of water it'll use up. It was hard to justify all the wasted water when the 3 year old would rather throw the whale slide into the real pool and the 1 1/2 year old was content in sitting in a nearby puddle on the concrete.
