Swimline Giant Inflatable Giant Habitat Castle Pool Float Series for Kids and Adults Size Fits Up to 4 People | Floating Kingdom Raft Lounger Ice Cube Tiki Bar Pirate Ship for Pools Lakes Beach

I bought this pirate island for when my grandkids come over and they love it! They play for hours on it! They are ages 4, 6 and 7. It seems to be well made and is easy to assemble. So happy I bought it. Would buy again!

On the good side, this would be cool for kids and as shown in their photos it is big enough for a few kids. Our son is five, and I’m thinking two in the center plus another two or three around tree outside and a few in the water.On the bad side, I can’t tell you how many for sure because we got this for a start of summer party. My husband inflated it, we went about throwing away all the boxes since we had bought a bunch of new stuff, and getting all the food/drinks ready, to find this. I’d say it was a half hour after we inflated that we found it like this - so kids never got to try it. The air valve is elsewhere (where it’s still inflated) so we know it’s a leak/ tear, but haven’t found it. No one had been in the pool so must have been this way. (Second photo is a few minutes after, so you see why we couldn’t just ignore the tilt!)For the price, I’d have returned as defective, but don’t have the box. Soooo if you do buy, plan to have it in advance or test before the kids see and get disappointed, and KEEP THE BOX for a week to be sure! Hope this helps someone - and will update if I hear from the seller!Update: have never heard from seller, so reducing to 1 star. Would have expected some customer service, but none yet. Will update review if they ever make it right! But so far, no response….

This was great fun with our 4.5 year old grand-children in our pool (always under close supervision). Make sure they can swim under the "island" to get into or out of the hole in the middle. There were no holes or other issues with this. Assemble the "fort" part to the "island"part with the "fort" only partially inflated, then finish filling the "fort". The door doubles as the plank, and the shields double as window shutters.Inflated with my 60gal compressor with no problems, stored under a patio out of direct sunlight, and "banned" anyone from over 60 lbs from getting on any floating components. It can probably take more than this, but I suspect that sooner or later a seam will fail under use from heavier "pirates".

This was a gift for my sons 5th birthday also perfect for his pirate pool party !! Is pretty big we have a 20 foot above ground Intex pool so their was still plenty of room if you have a smaller pool the size might be a concern for you took a while to inflate since very large recommend filing the bottom first and the top half way so it is easier to clip into the bottom after a full day of play with 15 kids the pirate island was still standing and pretty full as well would recommend the makers to make the whole in the middle a little bigger all the kids where fine in and out the float my concern goes for a kid getting stuck with floaties in the whole or a older child maybe a little chubbier to get stuck also while the kids are climbing on the island some times it leans witch is a little nerve wrecking if it is close to the edge of the pool had kids 3-13 on the float with no problems wouldn’t allow more then 3 10 years and older in at the same time and could fit about 4 or 5 little kids on it at once the ledge is also big enough for the kids to sit and stand on just like the picture seems put together very well wish the door of the pirate island/ ship was also able to clip on in some way since the string does come undone a lot and isn’t long enough to double tie also can’t really knot it because then it takes awhile to get off witch was also hard for the kids cute concept with the windows also being shields ! A little bonus of the float. Being so big is at the end of the Night all the floats fit right in the pirate ship and makes the pool a quick easy clean up !!

I've had two of these. The kids love it but I think the pirate theme encourages rougher play. They both ended up splitting at the seams. Too bad its not that well made!

What a great time we had until it popped at the seam.Was used a few times and it popped.

I feel like it is human nature to want to know the bad. I took a chance on buying this because the reviews weren’t stellar. I am glad I did. It had been outside for almost a month. Endured my youngest sons Black Panther claws which worries me he has been told no sharp things near blow ups since and a few storms blowing it against the stone waterfall and rocks. It’s still standing. I also bought a blow up slide which lasted one day. I thought it was going to be the other way around. I am recommending this to my friends with little ones. It’s actually very well made and my kids love it. Just remember to buy a electric pump this thing it big!!!

We only got 3 swims out of this float! I was super careful with it and didn’t even let my kids be rough with it. The problem is that it is only broken into 2 air compartments, the top is the fort and only has one air compartment and the bottom is a big circle and only has one air compartment. It makes it impossible to find any air leaks. The top could have easily been broken into 4-6 compartments and the bottom could have been broken into 3. This is made super cheap for how much it costs.
