Volcanic Valley Paddling Pool

Description

I’ve had this Volcanic Valley paddling pool for a few years now — only used once, and honestly, it’s still in great shape. My kids absolutely loved it, especially when we’d have a bit of a splash day in the backyard. The soft slide, splash pool, and cooling sprayer are a hit, and the ring toss and ball games keep little ones busy for ages.

It’s super easy to set up — just a quick inflate with any standard hose, and the 2-in-1 valve makes it super convenient. Takes about 4 minutes to fill and 4 minutes to inflate, which is not bad at all. I’ve kept it in good care, so it’s still sturdy and safe.

It comes with a repair kit, which is handy if it ever gets a little worn. I didn’t include the air pump — that’s something you’d need to buy separately.

Dimensions are L203 x W178 x D118cm (about 6.6ft long), so it fits nicely in a backyard or play area. Just make sure to deflate it, clean it properly, and store it in a dry place — no going below 52F or above 125F. It’s a self-assembly model, so no fancy tools needed.

Recommended for kids aged 2 and up, though younger ones can play with a bit of supervision. I’ve used it mostly with my 2-year-old, and it’s been a real hit.

I’m moving to Chippenham, Wiltshire, and it’s just sitting in the shed, ready to go. It’s not the most expensive thing, but it’s a solid piece of fun — and with a little care, it’ll last for years. Price is £27, but I’m not putting that in the title — just the facts.
