Original Giant Inflatable Pool Float Floatie Ride-On

I bought this swan for a house boating trip with ten of my friends on majestic Lake Shasta. The first time I blew it up I could tell it was going to be the best purchase I have ever made. It is made from a sturdy material, and it is HUGE. Two of us were on it at once and it was totally comfortable. I got a great tan thanks to the swan's buoyancy and size and obviously it is really cool. Everyone took their turn on the swan, and despite two chilly nights it never had to be inflated again. People were jumping on it, we had a dog on it at one point and it really held up. But it was not to last. On the third and final day, we obviously had to finish our surplus of booze, and things got a little crazy. We decided to start going down the second story slide and trying to land on top of the swan. It was epic. A few of us missed. Then my fiancé landed it and the swan took it like a champ! Not a hole in sight. What finally killed it was another guy in our group diving feet first off the slide onto the middle of the swan after an aggressive approach. The swan exploded in a blaze of glory, but the diver was held up by the trusty buoyancy of the wings. So, if you are looking at the other reviews wondering if this is just a piece of crap, I'd say the answer is no. For $30, a swan that can survive the abuse of my group for a long, drunken weekend is an absolute steal. I'm not sure what these other reviewers have been doing to it, but I bought this fully expecting it to not last one day with our crew! BRAVO!!

I ordered three of these at christmas time and forgot about them... yesterday was hot and the kids wanted to go in the pool so we pulled them out and blew them up (with a compressor, dont attempt to do it with your mouth)... they are AWESOME!!!! everyone who came over started laughing so hard immediately! They are very good quality, nice and sturdy and VERY big and roomy... very comfortable for a not so skinny adult even 2 adults at the same time, super awesome for kids, lots of room to stretch out and nap... they were also fantastic for playing around on. My younger brother kept swimming underneath and flipping us over but we had such a blast playing on these. I would definitely recommend these for anyone looking to add a fun element to pool time. Just to add, they were very very stable, wont flip easily on their own. The only downside to these (and this wasnt the swans fault at all) was that my brothers dog went into full hunter mode and decided he had to eat the swans no matter what! He grabbed one by the beak, but it didnt rip, which was very cool. We ended up putting the swans on top of the awning until the dog could be taken home (and they looked awesome up there!! so freaking funny!!) Im sitting here watching the three swans float serenly around my pool, they look fantastic. This morning my hubby said "we should order 4 more just so we will have 7 swans a swimming" ... ahahahahaha have a fabulous summer!! I also recommend you get more than one because noone will want to get off and let someone else have a turn! Awesome product, very well made and strong!

Update: swan didn’t last for more than two weeks before getting a big hole . Came exactly as expected. Love it!

Awesome float! Everyone loved - survived long weekend at the lake with lots of kids jumping/playing

Inflating this swan was a pain! I have an electric pump for inflatables, but the openings in the swan were really tight and I had a difficult time inserting the pump extension into those openings. Once it was inflated, I was surprised at how big it was. The kids had a blast playing on the swan, but after day 2, one of the wings started deflating due to a tear between the body and wing. Then the other wing started losing air. The kids naturally grabbed on to the wings when trying to climb from the side, or stretched the wings out wide from the body of the swan when sliding off the swan into the pool. Now the swan has lost both of its wings, and is basically a raft with a head and tail. The kids still love playing on it though. I would recommend this if you don't mind the thing losing its wings.

This swan is a great addition to our pool. The slightest breeze makes it sail across the pool. We used our portable car tire compressor to fill with the cone shaped adaptor piece, and there are a few compartments so it takes a little patience, but it's well worth it and the kids love it. We've had it in the pool a month now and it's as full as day 1. It solved a huge problem for us too - we had several stubborn ducks that kept landing in our pool and bringing their friends and making a mess - nothing we did could get rid of them. Enter giant sailing swan. We've been free of the pesky ducks and no more green pool! Highly recommend.

This thing is huge! My daughter and friends love to take it to the beach and ride the waves. It's durable enough for entry in a pool...something where you can climb on it from the stairs or a ladder. We live near the beach an have had two of these. Each one had the wing tear from the body because of the stress it takes when trying to mount it in the water. We have to take it past the shore break, or obviously we'd never leave the beach as the waves push forward... so when we are in the water, the float is at our chest level and kids, as well as adults need to jump up and then over to get their torso on, then use the wings or the neck, or where ever to get a handhold and pull the rest of the body on. A little easier to deflate than inflate, but with an air compressor it inflates somewhat quickly, but I'd recommend having two sets of hands for the job. The handles on each side of the neck are a great idea and are useful! We get many looks and a lot of laughs. We've since purchased a third one, and this one have had people climb on at the tide line, then have another person give them a walk out where they can float freely from being washed ashore, versus trying to mount it while in the water. Perfect for the pool, but a little difficult at the beach. Still have a blast with it though!

This is a super cute dragon. And it's purple, not blue. But so Cuuuute! The hard part is inflating it. It is meant to be done by old-fashioned lung power. We have power inflators, so we used the small nozzle on that, but the wings, body, head and tail each have their own inflation nozzles, so it takes quite a while to inflate this guy. It probably took us about 10 minutes (whereas huge inflatable beds take about 2?) I suppose that's good if you plan for things to get punctured. You can still use this as a raft after the head, wings and tail have been punctured... The really bummer part is deflating this guy. You can't just pop open the plugs and let the air leak out. It won't. You have to pinch the nozzles to get the air out. Again, good if you have kids that just can't leave them closed. But bad if you're trying to pack him up. Even with our power pump and deflator, you have to lay on him, and with the small nozzles (and so many of them!) it takes at least 1/2 hour to get the air out of him. Big Bummer!! The dragon is adorable but too much trouble to inflate/deflate. I really doubt we'll use him again. But he's CUUUTE!

Très gros. Confortable.

Very big perfect for a day in the pool or at the beach! This product has a very nice vibrant colour and was exactly like the picture. It’s a very sturdy material and I have no worries of it ripping or breaking! The shipping came 3 days early!! Though since it’s so big it’s a little hard to inflate but that’s all ok.i LOVE this product and would very much recommend!

He is always the hit of the pool. Durable too we have had him out a couple of times with grown men jumping on him and he still floats

On the first use, the inflatable did not hold air. Could not find a hole anywhere - assuming the seams were not adequate to keep air contained.

Awesome!
