Yep, Amazon sells giant water slides to turn your backyard into a splash park
Summertime's all about fun in the sun. And the ultimate expression of that? A water slide. Get ready for some squeals and giggles, folks, because you can now have a veritable water park delivered right to your backyard! Yep, Amazon is packed right now with heavy-duty nylon inflatable water slides of every shape and style from Sunny & Fun. Your inner child will be just as excited as your actual child. Here's a sampling of what's in store for you once the temps rise.
Sunny & Fun Inflatable Single Ring Water Slide
Sunny & Fun Ultra Climber Inflatable Water Slide Park
Sunny & Fun Slide ‘N Spray Inflatable Water Slide Park
Sunny & Fun Four-Corner Inflatable Water Slide Park
Big and little kids alike will delight in this affordable pick, which features a climbing wall that stretches up to the slide. Best part: It blows up in 10 minutes with the included air pump. Max. weight: 280 lbs.
"Not just for toddlers!" wrote a five-star fan. "I bought this for my 9-year-old for her birthday and she has been using it all summer with her friends having a blast! I added a tarp and foam cushions under the pool part because our backyard has a lot of rocks and sticks, and it has helped so far to prevent tears. ... Definitely recommend!"
Double slides and triple sprays equals endless fun with this very popular backyard attraction. The greatest thing about climbing the wall on this one is it's okay to fall ... you'll just slip right down into the wonderful 13-foot-wide splash pool! Weeee! Max. weight: 350 lbs.
One happy shopper shared: "Takes a beating! This slide ended being better than expected. Between our kids and the neighbors, age 5–13, all boys, this slide took a beating right out of the box. There were multiple times when five or six boys, mostly older boys, were on the slide simultaneously, playing some crazy game where they are running up and down the slides or the center portion, basically being as rough as possible, and this slide just kept on going. ... The water features on it are good, and the pool, while small, is actually perfect for a slide like this: Kids have a blast sliding down in all sorts of crazy positions, and they don’t go underwater but still make a decent splash."
Cue the squeals! A real bargain considering its outsize dimensions (17' x 12.4'), this number features a mounted water gun that points right at the slide and a secret tunnel to hide in below. And there's plenty of room for goofing around in the splash pool. Max. weight: 350 lbs.
"Great purchase, keeps kids entertained for hours," wrote a pleased reviewer. "We have had this slide for a month now and are still in love! I’m so impressed with how easy it is to inflate, up in seconds. It has withstood a lot of kids on it. On an average day we have our three [kids[ ages 9, 7 and 4 on it but have also pulled it out for lots of cousins, which had 13 years down to 2 on it. So far it’s held up to everything."
At 17' x 12' and with a wide slide, a mini pool and fun things to do at every turn (hey, that's a basketball hoop!), this one's a real crowd pleaser. Be sure to pick up some sunscreen and prepare for all-day play every day. Max. weight: 230 lbs.
"Must-buy for parents of young children," wrote a thrilled five-star reviewer. "Best purchase I’ve made for my 4-year-old son. Water park is much bigger than expected. Was super easy to set up and take down ... with 2 drains for easy clean up. It is extremely durable! ... My local inflatable company rents out this exact water park for $250 a day!! Crazy! Might as well buy it. ... Full-day entertainment for my 4-year-old. He wakes up every morning wanting to go right back out there and play on it! Couldn’t be more pleased."
