Intex 58868EP Floating Recliner Lounge

The Intex 58868EP Floating Recliner Lounge has two sections, the main section is the chair from head to toe, and the other is the arm rests which is shaped like a "U" wrapping around the back of the chair giving it more stability. The design is good in as much as it keeps the "lounger" floating evenly above the water - in fact, you can be fully dressed and never get wet because of how well you are propped up. I found this to be not to my taste because I like having some contact with the water, otherwise why even be in a pool!

But the problem with the Inflatable Pool Toys is its lack of durability. Without any known reason, after a few usages we suddenly found the arm rests section deflated. We discovered that the seam that connects it to the main body of the chair had started to come apart. There is no way to patch it due to its design, so the whole thing had to be trashed.

Maybe we just got a defective one or something, but the big issue is that it fell apart for no reason. No one was jumping on it or being rough with it in any way. I don't see any of these holding up under the normal kid torcher test that things like this usually go through!

I installed a much larger pool and the inner tube I had wasn't going to cut it in a pool as large as my new one - so I purchased this lounger. It is being touted as a toy but I think it is the best pool lounger I have ever had. It has held up really well and shows no sign of sun fade. I spend plenty of time floating around, catching a tan and all the while a drink at my elbow. The cup holders were definitely a great idea for this lounger. For the price and the quality it is well worth it. I went from store to store looking at less impressive loungers and settled on this one. Thanks Intex.....I love your products.

Intex 58851EP Waterslide

Not wanting to install a permanent slide, I bought this Inflatable Pool Slide for the kids. They LOVE it! They play on it non stop, sliding down into the shallow end, walk out and do it over and over. It keeps them thoroughly entertained in the pool.

The water sprayers that keeps the slide wet are a great addition as you just hook a hose up to the slide and it sprays onto the slide. Very cool.

Buy this slide knowing you will only use it for maybe 1 season, if that. It started losing air from almost the 1st day we used it. We have to blow it back up every single time we use it. Forget feeling comfortable that you get a patch kit, even if you can find the leak, the patch kit is useless. We've simply resigned ourselves to knowing this is a "disposable" product good for one summer and will have to buy a new one each year. The kids enjoy it enough that for that reason alone I am willing to invest $100 every year for the amount of fun they have on it. Much more than that and they'd have to find something else to do in the pool!

We have had our slide for three years. We set it up off of our dock at the lake. Big kids (adults) and little kids go down the slide. The visiting lake children love to come over. We do not use the hose attachment. The end 'catch' flap has ripped off, and one of the support tubes has a hole, but it still is a lot of fun. We bought it for my daughter for her third birthday. I plan to buy another one when this one no longer will hold air. It is heavy and hard to store. You do need an air compressor to blow it up. Provides many hours of fun.

I ordered Intex 58851EP Waterslide, but have not had any luck with this one. I noticed some defects when inflating it, but didn't think anything about it. Now, less than a year later, it is tearing and will be placed in the dump.

Intex Recreation Swim Center Family

There were so mixed reviews I was not sure if this Intex Inflatable Pool would be a good purchase or not. It arrived yesterday and I inflated it with an electric compressor, it took about 40 min. This morning at 5 a.m. I started filling it with water and it took until 6:30 a.m. to fill to the line. I have a smaller size hose so that accounts for it taking longer. I am happy with the quality of the pool it feels like it will hold up, not flimsy. It does have a drain in the bottom.

I called a local pool store and they told me to add 1/8 to 1/4 cup chlorine bleach daily to keep the pool sanitary that I can use it about 5 days then drain and refill. I am glad to hear this, I know standing water that humans have been in breeds bacteria if not treated.

The pool looks really cool too the way they did the clear and the bright green inside. I am using it as an adult to do exercise in. It is deep enough to do leg kicks and move around. I have been sick for 7weeks so this is a good way to ease back into exercise and getting my strength back. It is also just plain fun.

I feel if Intex Recreation Swim Center Family  asts one summer I got my moneys worth. I would recommend this to anyone who wants to cool off.
