Great Family Fun!!! | | Review Date: June 12, 2007 | | Reviewer: nvvmb, | | 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! | | Review Date: June 9, 2007 | | Reviewer: K. Andrade, Southwick, MA | | 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. |
banzai falls slide | | Review Date: June 26, 2007 | | Reviewer: Maria Andres Beyl, | | 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!!!! | | Review Date: June 18, 2008 | | Reviewer: Crystal R. Vega, Ruckersville, VA | | 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! | | Review Date: August 5, 2008 | | Reviewer: Abel Armendariz, El Paso, TX | | 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. |
great fun | | Review Date: August 11, 2008 | | Reviewer: Rick Gradwohl, | | I purchased this for my grandkids. They love it! The set up was not bad. It really does blow up in 5 minutes. The only down side is You have to keep moving it to save the grass. |
Roaring good time | | Review Date: July 14, 2009 | | Reviewer: IP Lady, Chicago burbs | | Our 9 and 6 year old have become the hit of the neighborhood...easy to set up. Putting away...not going into the storage bag they give. Overall awesome product and great fun. |
Kids love it | | Review Date: July 17, 2009 | | Reviewer: C. Cooper, NJ | I bought this for my oldest sons 5th birthday party and the kids love it! We had 10-12 5 year olds playing on it for 3-4 hours and they all loved it. I was a little worried about busted seams when I pulled it out of the bag to use for the second time but no problems.
The only complaint I have at this point is that the water sprays are not aligned as intended. One will spray to the left and the other to the right and off the slide. I used duct tape to redirect the water and would have to occasionally realign the tape.
Kids love it - I hope we get a full season out of it. |
Great backyard fun! | | Review Date: July 20, 2009 | | Reviewer: M. Stephens, Houston, TX | My son, friends, relatives and neighbors all love this slide! It is great fun for kids of all ages.
We have used the slide 10 times for a duration of 3-4 hours each time. We have not had any trouble with the slide.

Lots of fun! | | Review Date: September 28, 2009 | | Reviewer: Debbie T, West Palm Beach, Florida | | Bought the slide about 5 weeks ago. Have used it about 4 of the weekends. No difficulties with it yet like some reviews. Had kids on it ranging from 3 to 12. They had a blast with all 3 slides. Unable to dry entirely before putting away. Hopefully won't have too many mold problems like others have written. So far so good. Very happy with the purchase. |
Fun in the Sun | | Review Date: May 24, 2010 | | Reviewer: Lani D. Stover, Sunny Florida | | Great slide. Lots of fun! Well made and easy to set up. This is our second Banzai slide. First one was the Sidewinder Falls, which lasted 3 summers even with being stored outdoors before it finally gave out. After looking at lots and lots of inflatable water slides, we decided on this one. I'm so glad we did! The kids love it. The water sprayers really blast water. Highly recommended! |
Your kids will love it!!! | | Review Date: June 4, 2010 | | Reviewer: B. Adams, KANSAS CITY, MO, US | | I can't believe how much our kids love this inflatable. They play on it for hours and hours. Only time will tell but it seems pretty well constructed. The kids and their friends, and neighborhood kids have spent countless hours on it since we have owned it and it appears to be holding up just fine. I looked and looked for two years wanting to buy one but not sure of which one to get. I am glad I took a chance on this because it has turned out to be a very good decision. |
waterslide | | Review Date: June 23, 2008 | | Reviewer: Linda M. Veglia, | | I have 2 children ( 10 & 5 yrs. old ) & they absolutely LOVE this! It is quite heavy for 1 person to maneuver. We also had to buy a small shed to store it. The only downfall is you have to fill up the pool section every time after it deflates, otherwise, it's great exercise for the kids! |
