I purchased this after a lot of looking and I am pretty happy with it. My child, almost 2, loves it. There are a couple of things I would like to mention though. When reading measurements keep in mind they are counting the slide. I imagined something a little bigger. Also, guard the back exit. My son fell through the slot on his head. It is the only hazard I have found, but it has happened more than once.

my only previous experience with these type inflatable jumpers has been the rental models used at larger parties. my son is 4 and he loves these, when he gets to use them. seeing that they were available for purchase i reviewed the products available. this is a new model just released in jan 05, and i found it in walmart at approx. that time. i decided to go with this one, which has a larger size than most of the 8 x 8 i have seen, and has the added slide. pricewise it was in the same range as the smaller ones and it was worth springing for the larger size. i moved the furniture as the woman above also wrote in her review, and it did indeed inflate quickly and the fan was not excessively loud. the material seems very durable. it does come with a carry bag, and a repair kit just in case. the weather is not clear enough to put this outside yet, but i think it is a great item that my son will be in for the bulk of the summer.. the jump area was nice and spacy, and the slide is pretty long, (6ft.) overall i would recommend this over other jumpers, esp. if you have more than one child who intends to use this, since its slightly larger than others ive seen. the brand is a well-known company who makes good quality products and this seems to be no exception.

After looking at several of the Spin Master brands and reading the reviews, I decided to try a different brand bouncer. We bought the one by Little Tikes. It was evening when we got it, so I pushed our family room furniture to the side and blew it up. Set up was a sinch, and it does inflate in under a minute. My girls (both under the age limit - one will be 3 this month, and the other is 17 months)absolutely love it! They played for 2 hours that first night, and it was the first thing they asked for the next day! My younger one needed help getting in for about the first half an hour, but mastered it and now does the whole thing by herself!
It seems very well made - I even climbed in with the kids at the begining. And unlike other reviews I have read for other brands, it is very easy to roll it back up and put it in the bag. I rolled it up and slipped it into the bag the first time with no problem! The actual jumping area was suprisingly large, and the fan is not too noisy to run in the house. I realize it is not a traditional educational toy, but good physical exercise is important, too! It works on their balance, gross motor, and coordination. All around a terrific purchase...

We bought this bouncer to use during my daughter's third birthday party. It wasn't much more expensive than the rental bouncers and well made so it worked great at the party. We just needed to limit the number of 2-6 year olds to three at a time and we tied up one opening so there was just one way in and out via the slide. Now we have a great bouncer to use at home- my 3 and 5 year old kids love it!

After reading the reviews to sinular models I was VERY confident in buying this one (the spinmaster brand reviews were not good at all). I picked this one up and had it out and up within minutes. We then took it back out for our sons third birthday party this past weekend. I was terrified that someone would get hurt. We ended up putting it in our livingroom (though it is not recommended in the manual) because the weather was bad). At one time there were 6 or 7 kids ages 3-7 in this thing. I was very nervous that it would pop or deflate but it didn't. It is by far worth every penny we put into it. It deflates and rolls back up into the back easy. I think we have it down and in the bag within 2-5 minutes. The fan is small but powerful. We thought it would be louder that it actually is. I would buy this one again.

This weekend after several days and many hours online [...]we purchased this item.It is oustandingly durable, literally blows up under a minute and while the box was too heavy (once I took the blower out I could carry it) that was the only down side. It truly fits in the carrying case - I put it in my trunk (small car) and we took it to grandparents and got it out all over again. I have a 2 yr old and a 3 yr old. 250# limit- more than Spinmaster's 200#. Over 6ftx6ft bounce(which is plenty, really!)plus 3 ft slide w/ rails--and TRUST me with litle kids you REALLY need the rails! I THOUGHT I wanted a 9x9 jump area, really you don't need it- not with this item. We had 2 kids and me jumping (right at 250#-maybe more!) and we didn't have any trouble. It was a blast! I easily folded it (faster the 2nd time around) and stuck it in the bag! Warning:the bag is big and kinda heavy- if you are a "weak" person you will have trouble. The fan is in awesome shape, nothing second hand here- brand new! I truly think the age range is a little stingy- I think the girls could jump on it well past age 6. You can change how firm or bouncy the jump area is depending on how much air you let escape out the vent. We spent a thoroughly enjoyable day jumping around.

We purchased this toy for our son's second birthday party. We live out of the country (out of the U.S.) and rentals for a bouncy-house like this cost close to $200. It truly took less than 30 seconds to inflate, about a minute (if that) to deflate, and actually fits into the carry case! We couldn't be happier with our purchase. It also survived about seven hours of constant abuse by rough-housing seven-year-olds without a scratch.

This is the best toy we've ever bought our son! Our local Toys r Us didn't have it in stock, so we found it at a [...] We used it at his 2nd birthday and all the kids had a ball (ages ranged from 2-10 years). We've set it up in the garage on rainy days and it's a great way for him to get some physical activity. It is so durable we feel it will last at least ten years. It literally inflated in 45 seconds, I timed it. Amazing. Just make sure the air vent from the motor isn't twisted or blocked. I love this thing! If I weren't 6 mos. pregnant I'd jump on it myself!

This is a quality jumper that is durable and worth the money! We were a little worried that it wouldnt go two rounds with our wild little 4 year old boy. However this toy is really proving to be a great buy. It is for outside play only but we have been using it in the house on ugly days and it is working out great. It is providing hours of fun and the only time our kid wants to get out is to have a water break. The thing inflates in less than a minute. It is so easy to put up. The only thing is that it has an opening in the back that you need to keep closed. Litte Tikes...Great toy makers!

I just love having this bouncer for parties, or just to get my kids some friends to play with. I have a 1 and 3 year old and, although they have such short attention spans, they do like this toy. But they spend the most time with it if other kids are over. Oh, and I had neighbor kids showing up here that I had never even SEEN before, as soon as I set it up out back! If you are debating, definately go with the slide, instead of just an 8X8 ft. model. It's totally worth the extra 50 bucks. The kids love the slide more than anything. And it really does slide. The whole thing about air leaking is just that this is not airtight. It's not meant to be. This way, even if you get a small hole, it will work just the same. That's why it has a continuous motor. You'll have to move some furniture around to set this large bouncer up in the house, but I think it's a best buy! So durable and you'll use it for years to come.
