Slide Reviews

this toy rocks I GOT IT FOR MY BIRTHDAY AND I PLAYED WITH IT RIGHT AWAY ITS AMAZING IF YOU HAVE MONEY I WOULD SAY BY THIS TOY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My twin girls got this slide when they were one. They learned very quickly how to get up the steps, get their feet in front of them, and slide down!! It is a little narrow, so getting their feet in front of them at that age was a little hard at first because they couldn't balance well. They learned fast and wanted to do it over and over again. This slide doesn't take up a lot of space, plus it folds, so it is great if space is limited. Ours is in the bakyard, and it is easy to clean and very durable. My girls love it, it helps with balance, and it is a classic fun toy! My girls are now almost 3, and they don't slide as much, but they still really love it (especially when the sprinkler makes it wet and they go FAST!)

I am a mother who is planning to move within the next month and I had plans on buying this toy once I moved to put in my backyard. I then received a coupon in the mail so I figured why not get it now. BEST MOVE I COULD HAVE MADE. This slide is so convenient, it folds right up and can be played with indoor and out. I had planned to hide it from my 2 year old, but she saw it. She literally sat next to it for hours waiting for it to be put together. I finally waited for her to go to bed before my mother and I put it together, which also was very easy to do, and she was so excited when she saw it the next morning. Needless to say the slide is still up in my mothers living room, and my daughter spends hours with it EVERYDAY. Not only does she enjoy it, but it really gives me peace of mind while she plays. LITTLE TIKES, YOU'VE DONE IT AGAIN.

We use this toy as an indoor toy for my two year old. She loves to climb and slide on this. We started with the little slide and graduated to this big slide. Though it takes up alot of space inside, it is easy to fold up when we have company coming over or we just need the room. Great toy...........for either indoor or outdoor play.

I like the product for its durability, but thought the kids (age 1 & 2 1/2) would play with it more. I think it is a little overpriced for what you get.

I just got this climber/slide! My 17 month old went nuts over it! It's perfect for my little girl to do her favorite thing (climb) and she figured out how to sit and slide with no problems. It fits great in her playroom and feels very sturdy. I am very pleased with this purchase. My favorite things about it are all the giggles, squeals and smiles! Yay Little Tikes!

I bought this slide when my son was 14 months old. He loves it. We keep it inside since it is so cold and wet outside right now. It doesn't take up *too* much room in spare bedroom. He loves climbing up and down the steps. He is learning the steps of how to slide (1st sit down, then get one foot in front, then the other, then scooch forward). Just as the product name implies, he loves hiding under it and surprising me and playing peekaboo around the corners. It was a snap to put together maybe 15 minutes tops - if a piece is fitting too snuggly follow the directions and put a little soap on it to help it snap into place. I think son will enjoy this product for some time!

we bought this pool for our 3 kids (6, 4, 2 years). The pool comes with lots of activities. The slide was what attracted my kids to this particular pool. Unfortunately, after a few uses the slide teared at the seams. I needed to tape up the slide, but I'm sure we won't get the season out of this pool. My kids still have a blast in the pool. It is really hard to empty the water. The one drain plug isn't enough. I usually have to scoop water out and then tip it upside down.

We got this for my 1 year old daughters birthday party last year! It is just GREAT! I would say we had atleast 20 kids in and out of the pool going down the slide, etc... and it has held up wonderfully! We have taken it out again this year and it is still nt great shape, it is a pain to deflat and inflate but luckily we have a garage we can store it in and leave it half inflated! But I highly recommend this pool my daughter loves it!! A++++++++

I got this for my four year old last year. It's very cute and he enjoyed it. However, there are several parts and pieces to inflate and deflate. If you don't have some kind of electric pump don't even consider this pool. Honestly deflating the stuff took more time though.
So, as far as enjoyability, the kinds love this pool. We used it for my son's birthday party and several kids played fine in and around it. But, you as a parent are not going to enjoy the time it takes to put it up and down (if you're not going to just leave it inflated in your backyard all summer).
I have this pool to use once and a while, and I have a little purple plastic one for quick everyday use.

I saw this item on amazon.com and thought that it would be a great "in-between". I called the locale Toys R Us and had them place one on hold. When I walked in I located the pool and to my surprise, it was smaller than depicted, much smaller. I have a 2 going on 3 year old. It would be knee/mid calf on her. I truly feel that most of the images that are posted with amazon.com are VERY deceiving. I truly hope that the appropriate people see this, since I feel that 90% of the pool images are incorrect. That as a customer makes me quite unhappy.

My wife and I were looking for a pool for our 2 year old son and found this one on the Toy's R Us website. This is a great pool! Best of all I don't have to blow it up! Some of the nice features are that it is a non-inflatable pool, has a built in little slide, has a little village for playing with small cars while staying cool, and has a built in fountain feature that keeps things cool. I purchased a 6' foot hose remanant from the local hardware store, it came with it's own little valve. Just hook this up to the fountain feature underneath the pool and turn it on and "voila" instant little fountain. Again if you are looking for a fun pool for the summer you cannot beat the price and durability of this one!

Just bought this pool today and am very pleased with the quality, durability and fun features it has. It is made of heavy plastic, not quite as heavy as the little tikes toys, but seems very durable and light enough for moms to lift it and move it around. It has a little slide molded in the pool and a little step to sit on. It also has a cup holder and a little place for kids to pour water and watch it flow around a maze. The price is right too!! It is half the price of pools it's size and shape. A great addition to summertime play.

This is one of the best toys I have ever played with. It is WAY worth the price! Any kid would love it!

I HAVE ACTUALLY HAD THREE BONZAI FALLS, MY CHILDREN LOVE THEM BUT THEY DO NOT HOLD UP WHATS SO EVER.THE ONLY REASON I HAVE PURCHASED SO MANY IS I HAVE RETURNED THEM SEEING THE CHILDREN SO UPSET' I HAVE ALARGE SWIMMING POOL BUT THE BOYS STILL LOVE THE SLIDE. I WISH THAT THE QUALITY COULD BE MORE DURABLE.

The slide was great for about 30 minutes. The water hose seam ruptured, tried to patch and was unable to do so. We went into another county to buy this for our grandchildren because it looked like a great toy that would be fun. 300.00 is a high price but we thought if it was as fun and durable as advertised the price would be worth it. Our 6 grandchildren had high hopes of alot of fun and were very disappointed when it started to fall apart.

My daughter is a little climber and this suits her wonderfully. It is not too imposing so she doesn't want to try and not to babyish for her not to want to play on it.

The rock wall, to me, is better than traditional steps. I don't have to worry that her foot would slip and she will fall, catching her leg in the slats.

I'm glad I purchased this instead of the traditional slide.

I was a bit skeptical to purchase this Climb and slide set after reading the reviews, but decided to give it a try. We got it for my daughters 1st birthday so I was a bit ify to whether or not she'd be able to master the climbing part. It took her a whole 2 days! She's barely walking and can climb it like a champ. She loves this. It didnt take long at all to put together either, however, when putting it together, part of the plastic decking cracked a little bit. I called the little tikes phone # and they sent me a new part in 2 days!!! Overall, I am extremely satisfied with this and would recommend it. It also helps that if something is wrong, the Little Tikes customer service is very friendly and will help you out.

This castle was bought for my son xmas 2003, when he was just 15 months. Since he was already doomed to be a climber this was in instant hit.

I disagree strongly with a lot of remarks re the toy not having steps but the juts as we found all the children who we have to visit, until they can master this stage then they are not steady enough to be climbing this toy without help from an adult - and no way should they be left alone until they can climb this themselves should they not have adult supervision.

Overal its a great toy inside .. but I found once we have placed this outside in the summer its suddenly not being used.

I have to point out the reason we did move this outside was my little monkey of a son found this was moveable and he was dragging it to shelves etc which normally would have being totally unreachable to him without the help from his caste !!!!!

this is a great toy. its verry fun and a greate way to cool down on a hot day.

I bought this for my 6 yr old and his 9 yr old brother; we're surrounded by people w/ pools so I thought I better get something out there they can call their own. They love it - inventing games and racing....Haven't had any problems yet w/ wear and tear - should be set up on a bit of a downward slant so the end gets filled w/ water for a good splashing finale! I'd recommend it (...) Enjoy

My 5 and 7 year olds loved this slide. The center tube shoots sprays of water as high as their waists and the pools at the end really work. This slide stays wet and very slippery. My only complaint is it does not withstand much abuse which is inevitable when friends arrive (and they do when this slide is out). We have had to patch the underside of the center tube using pool patches, but as soon as we do another section of the seam will blow out. We have taken to reinforcing the seams with duct tape and that seems to do the job. I would advise anyone buying this product to just start out by reinforcing the seams on the underside with duct tape before letting the kids on the slide and then it should hold up well. But for $15 you can not beat the fun of this slide even if it is just for a few weeks. If you have a lot of kids at your house I would recommend buying a second one as a back up.

My kids love this toy, but it takes a while to blow up.
It gets dirt on it too.The big tunnel won't stay in its spot.
The slide ripped and the splash pool got a hole in it.
The splash pool doesn't hold much water when it's on a hill.
The bucket doesn't dump very well.
So,my kids made up new games on it.

{warning:Don't put the splash pool on a hill or the water will all go to the side thats on the hill}

This slide is great fun but we have already been through two in so many weeks because of tears and holes. The first one broke on the first day we bought it with a large hole in the feeder tube that sprays the slide, making it unusable. I returned it the next day and the second one lasted less than a week before it too tore in three different places. Don't buy it unless your money is disposable and you can live with it's short life span.

i am turning 12 soon and im looking 4 a good gift 4 my slumber party,i wanted the 'banzai falls' but it was almost 300.00 dollars :( so i looked at the slip 'n slides.i really liked the 'slip 'n slide super gyser' but it had mostly bad reviews and i mean BAD.so i looked at this slip 'n slide and it looks like a lot of fun.i wanted 2 get something that will hold up a bunch of 12 year olds :) i am DEFINATLEY going 2 get this 4 my slumber party!!!!

I have 3 kids under 5. We've had this toy for 4 years, and they don't even bat an eye at it. We've tried everything to draw attention to this item, but it is either too advanced for even an alphabet-loving 5-year old, or it is boring. I thought it was fun, but my kids don't agree.

I loved this puzzle the minute I went on to this site and found it. It is high in teaching kids dexterity, hand-eye coordination, working with phonics, matching pictures to their background, and learning the alphabet. I love it because there are no pieces to get lost. It will be enough to challenge my 3 year old and as she grows with it; it will be enjoyable to do it. She loves puzzles but I was never able to bring them into the car because the pieces are never attached. This one is different and will definitely be going on vacations, grandma's, and to the doctor's office. I also like the fact that it is 2 different puzzles. They can flip to the other side and they still have to figure the puzzle out. This puzzle is a class act all the way. Makes a great gift!

Design genius. The puzzle is a sensory delight: scooting the litttle wooden pieces (can be more fun than cars) teaches decision making (the child must move the violin to get the whale in the right place, etc.). It is more amusing and challenging than the memorization that occurs after the second time through conventional jigsaw puzzles. It will be passed down through generations of kids, with no irritating cartoon character, no marketing cat plastered on it. Who wouldn't love a complex puzzle you can pick up in one stroke? Irresistable to adults and kids.
