Island Hopper 17' Bounce N Splash Padded Water Bouncer

I ordered this less than a week before our big BBQ at lake house - as promised when I ordered, it arrived in under a week and in time for the BBQ. No problems with the float itself - was able to inflate it via a special attachment on a Shop Vac and easily launch into lake. (The float is quite heavy when in the box, but when inflated can be easily lifted and moved by 3 people.) As noted in other reviews, the ladder that comes with the float can be difficult for people who are on the heavier side. We will probably purchase an alternative ladder next summer. The float was a big hit with my BBQ guests. We are still trying to figure out how to effectively anchor it - we tried two cinder blocks (on two separate ropes) but the current and wind still moved the float. Next year, we will try establishing a permanent mooring at the bottom of our lake. We are also still trying to figure out the best way to store it through the winter to ensure it is not damaged by temperature and humidity changes (unheated boathouse) or rodents. Overall, though, we really like the float and feel it was a good purchase for a reasonable price!

Not so much of a trampoline but rather a bouncer

Not durable poor quality poorly made and the d rings ripped off of the float in a small thunderstorm 2 weeks after we put it in the water. Not made to uphold in even the slightest storm weather.

We bought this to use at our lakehouse and so far, it's fantastic! We did some planning in advance on anchoring and inflating, and wish that there had been more information on anchoring, etc. in the product directions. Ultimately, we opted to anchor at two points, opposite sides of the bouncer using four cinder blocks, two at each point, which were chained together, and tethered using a nylon rope, threaded through a pool noodle (for floatation) with a carabiner to attach to the bouncer. We have some pretty strong winds on our lake and this thing hasn't budged. We originally tried to inflate with a DeWalt 20v inflator, and it was very slow. After the battery ran out, we used a plug-in inflator and it worked great! The rope ladder that comes with the bouncer is okay, but there's definitely a learning curve and a good bit of upper body/core strength required. I just placed an order for the metal ladder to make climbing on a bit easier.

not what expected. too heavy to take in and out but too light to leave out for storms. came with cut in trampoline and had to return

The help and service we received from the manufacturer was amazing! Finally blown up all the way the grandkids are having a blastGreat product and service.Thank you

Kids are getting this for Christmas! Wish the box had a picture on it because we can't set it up as it's too large;) excited to get it on the lake this spring!

I have had two of these but not the manufacturer’s fault. This tramp will,go airborne at 35mph and I did not have its anchored well. They are relatively durable and easy to inflate. Be sure you have a good anchoring system or you will do damage as I did. Note this is not like a trampoline. It bounces a little but you are not going to soar into the air and turn flips.
