Just returned from 4 days on the water at Lake Havasu and my kids loved it, plus some random kids joined in the fun too. Easily kept my entire family of 5 afloat. Keeps the kiddos entertained all day! Sam's Club comes thru again, not exactly cheap but great deal when compared to the flaoting pad competition.

We purchased his water pad after researching several much more expensive models. We decided to give this one a try due to the fact that it was much cheaper. We were very surprised at the quality, size, and overall look of this water pad. We have three boys who always have friends around and it has held up very well over the past month with lots of rough and tumble play. We couldn't be happier with this purchase!!

The most water fun 'bang for your bucks' is a water pad like this. Kids and adults can swim, stand, jump off, or cool off without touching the lake bottom. The D double sided grommet is very strong and the bungee with carabiner clip attachment is well made. Rolls up easy with securing Velcro straps and is lighter than it would seem to carry (even easier with 2 people). Overall, an excellent item.

Honestly we have used it every weekend its holds up pretty well. You can see a few nail marks from the kids climbing on and digging their nails in, but its holding up. No issues with the ring connector at all. Its pretty strong. We tie it to the boat and the kids hop on and off all day.

Have used this new toy for 2 summer weekends. The kids love it! I am concerned about the quality, however. After just 2 weekend of use, there are already holes and tears in the surface from normal wear. I liked the less expensive price of this floating pad, however, I am wondering if I should have paid a bit more for better quality.

Awesome! This thing is just awesome! We bought it for our kids, but actually my husband and I love it more. Great for lounging, playing, jumping, and even floating off the side. It rolls up nicely, unravels even easier. Definitely recommend as a boring essential and you can't beat the price.

This is just as advertised. We have done the larger, much more expensive pads and this one is equal in quality. For the price you can't beat it. It is styrofoam though, all these comments from people that are shocked that foam scratches easily are almost comical. It is not a steel, not scratchable floating mat. Kids absolutely love it!

I was really hoping this would be better than it is. Our first day using it a chunk of the pad came out- mind you we didn't allow life jackets or sharp objects and we were out in the middle of the lake. I think it was from my daughter's fingernails which are not even long. When you poll it back up it leaves indentations in the mat so now we have to add something to protect it before folding it up.

It is great - sturdy, large, etc. BUT our only complaint is that it does not have the holes at all four corners to tie it off from both ends. It only has an attachment at one end. That would probably work for most people, but we liked to be able to anchor it from both ends, so that it didn't slide around in the water toward the dock. Other than that, it is great!

We bought this for our weekend at the lake. The kids absolutely loved it! When the kids tired of playing, the ladies took it out and floated near the beach. Unfortunately... the attached anchor does not work when towed behind the jet ski, LOL! Guessing it's purpose was to keep us from floating away, haha!
