This item started to split on the seam on the bottom side after the second use. Was able to repair it with a patch, but would not purchase this item again.

The first time I used this tube, it got a small hole on the seam. I was able to fix it. The second time I used the tube, it split a crack about two inches long. Because of the cold, the material became brittle, causing the crack. The temperature was about 10 F, not an unreasonable temperature for sledding, I would think. This tube stinks. Enron stock is worth more than this thing.

I don't know what everone is talking about in the rest of these reviews but these tubes are great!!! I am 165lbs and the weight rating on these tubes is only 120lbs. I've gone over jumps, took running starts and landed on the tube, etc. I've pretty much put this thing through the ringer. Still no leaks and extremely fast. Next year I'll buy the adult size tube. Uncle Bob's tubes are the way to go!!!!!!!!

I read the reviews that told me these snow tubes don't last, but I tried anyway. It's true, they don't last long. I have three boys 10 and under who put them to the test. One sprung a leak, unable to sustain rougher sledding. If you have a child who is not rough (jumping on after running for speed) this tube might work. I don't recommend it for active kids.

This toy is inexpencive and fun. It has handles that you can grip easily, unlike the hard plastic sides on other sleds. It goes superfast and is really fun. My five year old brother and I (I'm 12) Love to play with it. My best friend (Shes's 12) does too. It just goes to show that this is perfect for a variety of ages.

I have four kids that have these, and they range from ages 4 to 12. They have used these all summer in the pool and in the snow. They have taken on tons of abuse from jumping on them, hitting trees and such. We have never had a hole in one or any problems for that matter. The kids love them. The adults have used them in the pool also. Ours are inflated all year long. Great Item!!
