This is a really cute/fun splash pad for toddlers, kids & dogs! It's easy to set up (just roll it out and attach a hose). It uses the water pressure to inflate and then sprinkle upwards. We couldn't get it to sprinkle like it shows in the photo on the listing, but perhaps if you have more intense water pressure it would? Overall, it's simple to set up and kiddos love to run through it on a hot day. My biggest complaint (and reason for knocking off a star), is because the water runs through the sides to inflate it and then out the tiny holes that create the sprinkles, it's near impossible for it to completely dry out. Which makes me nervous for potential mold growth when I store away for winter.
