It does not stand on its own and its hard to fill.

I ordered one for my sons 3rd birthday and I believe I received a faulty one. 4 of us (adults) tried to figure it out and none of us could get it to spray the water out or stay inflated. I returned it with no problem and received my refund.

Does not hold air very well to stand up. Definitely not worth $40.

No stars if I could. Got about 10mins then it falls back.

It was better than expected. The kids loved it. Easy assembly within minutes. Also great for party decoration.
