Why is it a good deal? ??

With temperatures sky-high, your family needs a way to cool off. If you can't get to the beach and don't have a pool, don't worry, a slip-and-slide can be just as fun ā€” maybe more! Score this baby while it's over 40% off and get outside this August.

Why do I need this? ??

Measuring a generous 6.8 feet wide and 16 feet long, the Jambo Premium Slip Splash and Slide is essentially like a blow-up water park for the backyard, complete with color-coded racing sections for engaging in some healthy competition. Three inflatable bodyboards help cushion the ride, while surrounding sprinkler holes keep the water pad slick (and sliders cool) to ensure the good times keep flowing.

According to the brand, the Jambo Premium Slip Splash and Slide is made of safe, durable materials that are about 45% thicker than standard lawn water slides, so it wonā€™t pop or rip mid-slip.

What reviewers say ??

More than 3,500 Amazon shoppers give it a five-star rating and say it's super fun.

Pros ??

ā€œLots of fun to use,ā€ said one reviewer, who purchased the water slide for their young grandniece and grandnephews. ā€œThe slip and slide had lots of water pressure, and they all loved it, using the boogie boards or just sliding down without them. They had a great time with this on a nice hot day. I would recommend it. The water pressure in our case seemed fine. The water sprinkled nice and high and kept the slide nice and wet. A great item for children ā€” and maybe adults too.ā€

Adds a shopper: "Great fun! Used for a birthday party. Had five kids on it constantly for about three hours from the ages of 4ā€“8 years old. They rode the rafts down it and had a complete blast!"

ā€œIā€™m so happy with this purchase!ā€ exclaimed another five-star fan. ā€œFirst thing I noticed was that itā€™s much thicker than the ones from my youth. Iā€™m so glad we got the three-lane one because all three of my kids can comfortably race and slide together."

Cons ??

While it could depend on your home's water pressure, some shoppers say the water didn't rise as high as they thought it would and just wanted more splashiness overall.

"I wish the little holes where water springs from actually would make more of an arc when the water comes out, but that probably has more to do with our own water pressure," said one satisfied shopper. "Overall, I think this was a perfect buy for these summer months!"

"We have bought this same slip and slide for our kids year after year and it never disappoints," said a longtime fan, adding, "I will say, we also buy an arch type water curtain thing to put at the start of the slide and it makes all the difference with how the water spreads over the slide. I wish there was something built in at the launch point that allowed for more water to get you going but we improvised and it works. The slide itself is great, I love how big it is and the width makes it easier with multiple kids."

"The water shower wasnā€™t as high as we thought it would be, but overall it was great for the kids," said another shopper.

Score it for a refreshing $33 right now ā€” that's a small price to pay for some serious fun in the sun.
