Blast Zone Misty Kingdom Inflatable Bouncer - Water Park with Slide by Blast Zone Review

Blast Zone Misty Kingdom Inflatable Bouncer - Water Park with Slide by Blast ZoneI got this last year for my son as his Santa gift, he was 3 at the time. Overall this is great, durable, and lots of fun for the kids. My son played on it often and also had friends over often to play on it with him. BUT it does have cons for someone in a similar situation to mine, read on...

PROS:
A blast while it lasts, very durable, plenty of room for 5-6 kids to play around.
The ball pit/pool area is very sizable and allowed me to buy an additional 200-300 balls which the kids enjoyed.

CONS:
It mentions that this can also be used as a water slide which I thought was very cool, once it warmed up we hooked it up to the hose (via a clear hose with a sprayer on the end that you strap near the top of the slide). The slide was wet but not overly slick and the bottom area would fill up with water like a pool. It was a blast until I realized the downside. Well the obvious downside here is that they have no place for the water to escape. The thing with these bouncers is that they are filled with tons of small holes to allow air to escape (thus making it not pop with air being constantly blown into it). Well as this pool fills up with water, that water then starts to leak into the inside of the castle (at least mine did). So when you deflate it and let all of the water out of the pool area you will find that there is a lot of water INSIDE (where the air goes) which you can not get out which scared me for mold reasons. If I had it to do over again, I just would not use this as a water toy.

Another downside is that it mentioned somewhere that this would be no problem for one person to take down themselves. Since I am a single father I generally don't have help around and since I used this in my grass (which has to be watered every night) I would have to take it down almost daily. Well it is HEAVY. Not overly heavy where 2 people couldn't handle it with ease, but heavy enough that I never was really able to put it into the garage or something when we were done. This resulted in me often times folding it up and leaving it on the back porch. If it sat there for a week, moisture would get inside, and you would start to see what looked like dark mold spots in the material that no matter what I have tried I am unable to get it out. I live in Arizona too so it's not like everything is wet all the time here.

So, less than a year after spending $500+ on this thing, it is no longer in use. The fear of my kids playing on something that potentially had mold concerns has led me to retire it. While it lasted it was a blast though. For a family that would be able to pack this up properly each time and not use it as a water slide it would probably be a really good fit.
