When we got a glimpse of sun last year I went running to get this from ELC and love the fact, if positioned correctly, the leaf on top offers shade on hotter days. When the weather cooled I used it as a play pen putting toys in and then bought the balls and turned it into a ball pool. It definately got its use then when winter came it got stored away (still blown up). I fully expected to be buying a new one this year but 12 months on and I pulled it out of the basement and its still almost fully blown up and as good as new! Now my daughter is walking she loves getting in and out and playing with the water or balls in it.

I only have a small patio area and this is big enough for her to enjoy but not so big it dominates my whole garden meaning I still have room to sit down. I am unsure what the three inflatable rings are supposed to be for and nor is my daughter but I am sure we will find a use. Other then that a lovely durable product that is an excellent multi tasker.
