Banzai Roaring Rapids Water Park

Great Family Fun!!!

We have had this slide for about a week now and it is so much fun. My husband and two children ages 11 and 5 have been playing on it every day. It is definitely big enough for adults too. There are two regular slides and one tunnel type slide that leads to the pool. Each slide has a sprayer above it so not only do you get wet on your way down, but it creates a nice puddle of water at the end for a big splash. We love this toy. Having siad that however, there are a couple of downsides. First it is heavy so you will need more than one person to set it up and roll it up when you are ready to put it away. Second, the pool deflates also when you turn the blower off, so you always have to refill it before playing, although I have found it takes only about 20 minutes with the water hose. Other than those two things, this slide is fantastic. I purchsed it when Amazon was selling it for $499. Immediately after my purchase Amazon listed it from Target for $699 and now it is selling for $999. I don't think, even though this is a great slide, that I would pay that much money for it. Look for a better bargain, and if you can find it then I would say definitely go for it.

Summertime Fun!

I had been searching for a waterslide for a while and read all the reviews I could find. This one seemed like it would be the most fun for the entire family and our friends. I saw it on-line at Walmart for 750 and at Target for 700 - but eventually I found it on Amazon for $499 + 85 for shipping. I was originally only going to spend about $400 - but this slide looked so cool we decided to go for it. Well we used it for the first time yesterday with 5 kids ranging in age from 2-5 yrs old all the kids over the age of 2 had no problem with any of the slides and with 3 slides available there was no pushing or fighting. The younger kids were a little more timid but still had a really good time going down the smaller slide and playing in the various wading pools. The slides are also big enough for adults and since it was in the 90's yesterday I had a blast going down all the slides right along side the kids. Overall we are very pleased with this product and it will also be a great addition to the birthday party we will have at the house this summer. Highly reccomend if you like to spend summer time fun at home.

the hit of the neighborhood...great for younger kids & older kids...a little heavy to move and impossible fit back into storage bag...but an overall excellent toy that provides lots of family fun...

VERY FUN!!!!

My husband and I debated on buying one of these inflatable slides for our children for the summer to save on gas money to take them elsewhere for water fun. It was a great decision. The kids just love this slide. They play on it for hours and never ever get tired of it... I was amazed. I also enjoy playing with the children. This slide is very durable as it holds me and my children and my sister and her children. This was an investment that we are sure will last. If you are looking for some great summer fun in your backyard go for it. We did buy a tarp to go under it so that there wouldnt be so much mud in the yard but the water just goes into the yard anyhow. There were some mud puddles after we were done... only downfall...

We Love It!

A few family members and us all chipped in and bought this slide for all the kids in our huge extended family. It turned out to be a great buy. All of the kids love it(and even some of the adults). They have had tons of fun this summer. We would definately recommend this product. One more thing I should include, we did have a problem the first time we used the slide. It seemed to start to disinflate after a couple hours of use. We called Toy Quest as stated on the product, they quickly redirected us to Amazon. Amazon was quick to help. They offered to send us a new one and pay for us to send the used one back. We received the new slide about a week later and followed the instructions on how to send the other one back. We resumed to our summer fun in no time. I have to say Amazon provided us with great customer care! We have had no problems since.
