Fun while it lasted 2010-07-16 |
| By Mom to Kate |
| We got this water fall as a gift for my kids 2&4. They had fun with it while it last, but that wasn't long. The ball filled with water, and won't work any more. |
A Piece of JUNK! 2010-07-14 |
| By C. James (DMV) |
| Don't waste your money, its not even worth it, dosent even work. Once the water is in the ball it is very hard to drain the water. Kids didn't care for it at all, they rather play in the standard old school sprinkler that you use to water your grass with. |
Disappointed... 2010-07-07 |
| By Shorty (Owings Mills, MD USA) |
This was purchased for us as a gift for my son's birthday and we couldn't wait to use it. I used a plug-in air pump to fill it with air which worked very well. We tried it out this afternoon and my son, his friend and I taking turns running past it which felt wonderful in this 100 degree weather. But, as the others have noted, it began to fill with water within 10 minutes of use and we turned off the hose. We tried to let the water out and realized that it is in the air compartment and it only slowly leaks out. In fact, once we disconnected the hose the ball started to roll away from the weight of the water that had filled the inside and we had to chase it into my neighbors yard.
I got on here to check the other reviews to see if we were the only ones with this problem, and I am disapointed to see so many others. I wanted to contact Little Tykes to complain and see what they would do, but now after reading the other reviews... I will probably complain to them anyways, but it is ashame that I don't think there will be anything they will do for us. Please don't buy this sprinkler since it looks like a blast, but really disappointed us all. And I guess I will be using scissors to puncture it to let the air and water out so we can toss this in the trash before it grows mold. |
Wish I read the reviews before I bought 2010-07-07 |

| My son loved this sprinkler, and considering some of the other reviews here, our's lasted longer than most. The 1st 2 days were fine, on the 3rd day it started filling up with water but the sprinklers still worked. On the 4th day the sprinklers stopped working so the only thing it did was fill up with water. Good idea but it needs to be way more durable to work. |
Do not waste your money on this! 2010-07-06 |
| By GC (Richmond, VA USA) |
My 4 children received this ball as a gift. They were very excited to try it out. The first issue was blowing it up. The hand pump I had was taking forever, so I switched to a motorized air pump that plugged into my car and it took a good 15 minutes to blow this thing up.
We then eagerly brought it outside to attach to the hose and realized that it was missing the connector piece that allows the hose and ball to attach. We checked to make sure it had not fallen off and was not in the packaging. It was not.
We immediately contacted Little Tikes for a replacement part. They told us that the whole ball needed to be replaced as that was not a part available. However, they required the purchase receipt for the sprinkler in order for them to replace it. I explained that it was a gift and we didn't have the receipt, but would be happy to send in the box with preprinted gift card attached and the obviously unused ball. No luck. They have refused to replace the defective item, which I find completely unethical. Not only would I not buy this, I would not buy any additional Little Tikes items. |
