SUMMARY
The
Misty Kingdom is one of the coolest bounce houses around! It's a Bounce House,
Slide, Water Park and Ball pit all in one. This inflatable play palace
can be used wet or dry, and offers everything kiddies love - including
250 play balls for the ultimate ball pit!
Whether it's hot or cold, the Misty Kingdom has
what kids love. In summer, hook up the hose to the included sprayers
and Misty is a Water Slide, Splash Pool and Bounce House. If the
weather cools down, throw in the 250 included play balls, and kids can
bounce, slide and play in the ball pit too! Either side can be used as
a ball pit.
Each Blast Zone inflatable includes the
inflatable unit, a UL approved blower a carrying case, stakes for the
blower and stakes for the bouncer. The inflatable unit rolls up to
about the size of a medium to large sleeping bag (depending on
bouncer). To set up the bouncer, just unroll it, hook the inflation
tube to the blower, turn on the blower and stake it down. The blower
runs continuously while kids play, and
air escapes through the seams and fabric.
INDIVIDUAL CATEGORY RATINGS
EASE OF USE
Misty Kingdom is incredibly easy to
use - if you can get it the spot where you want to
bounce! To inflate simply unroll, hook up the
blower - a simple velcro strap or tie-down know - and in
seconds your kids will be bouncing the day away.
The only issue we had here is weight. Rolled up,
Misty Kingdom is heavy - and unless you consider
yourself pretty strong, you'll either need a friend to
help you carry or maybe a dolly of some sort.
DURABILITY
We were pleasantly surprised with
the level of durability provided by Misty Kingdom.
We set up and broke down this bounce house several times
over our testing period - and believe us when we say our
kids didn't exactly go easy on it - and Misty Kingdom
passed the test. A little difficult to keep clean
- but after all - it is a bounce house!
VISUAL APPEAL
5 Stars all the way! Misty
Kingdom is bright, colorful, eye-catching and looks like
it as much fun as it is!
FUNCTIONALITY
Here again - we could only give
Misty Kingdom the highest rating! With all of its
different opportunities for play, we were more than
pleased to see this fun house do exactly the things it
advertises! It's a great bouncer, a great ball
pit, and a great water park - all in one!
COST EFFICIENCY
Here's where Misty Kingdom takes a
little bit of a hit. It's expensive. The
upside is this - if you were to buy your kids a lower
end bounce house at your local toy store - it would fall
apart after a use or two. Misty Kingdom is
commercial grade quality - and is basically just a
little bit smaller version of the houses you rent for
parties (that cost an arm and a leg). So...for a
little more in the wallet - skip the rental and order
your own - and unlike the flimsy models at your toy
store - this will last. With that said - we still
know it is expensive - so it gets just average marks
from us.
ORIGINALITY
We love all of the functionality
Misty Kingdom has to offer. Bounce house, water
slide, ball pit in one - those three ideas may not be
independently original - but put them together and
you've got an awesome opportunity for fun!
OVERALL RATING
The only reason we couldn't give
Misty Kingdom 5 stars is truly because of the price.
It is a little too restrictive to fall into our "you
better get this for your kid" category. But
that's it! Otherwise - we love this combo
bounce house and we just know your kids will too!
We are talking about endless hours of entertainment!
Hey, maybe that price isn't too high after all!
