Intex Pool Volleyball Game Set 56508NP

This is a brilliant buy to take on your hols. It comes in a sturdy box approx 25.5cm X 23.5 cm and weighs in at approx 1200g so easy to fit into a case. We used it every single day of our hols for water volleyball tournaments. I managed to blow it up without the aid of a pump and tie the netting on within about 15 mins. It is well worth taking the time to get the weighting right for the pool you are going to use it in as even without the slightest breeze, just the circulation of the water, will make it drift. It would not be suitable for using in the sea! But once you've got that right you're away. We took ours out of the pool at night and we were able to just plop the whole thing back in the pool when we wanted to play with it.It is quite long and I would recommend that you consider the size of pool you want to use it in as it measures in at just over 2m plus obviously you need 'playing' space too. It is sturdy and we used it as a short tennis net once out of the pool on grass without any punctures.Once you have inflated it you will think that there is absolutely no way you will get it back it the box! But you will! Two of us deflated it in about 30 mins, with some squashing and squeezing and rolled it up to go back into the box, no problem.All in all I would say that, I know you can buy all manner of inflatable items once you've arrived at your destination, but this is definitely one to make remove in your case for.

Arrived boxed and fitted well in the suitcase, easy to inflate by mouth and was up and in the pool within minutes. It comes with weight bags for tying to the sides and putting stones in to keep the net in place as you play, unfortunately the pool had a slight slope and the water level also meant that the weight bags didn't sit on the pool floor. However due to 4 of us jumping around and playing i do wonder if the weight bags would've worked with so much movement in the water, we actually had another friend holding the inflatable during the game. Comes with a couple of puncture repair stickers.Was difficult to fit back in the original box and we actually left it at our friends place for others to use. Would buy again if going elsewhere as it really got everyone active and having fun.

fun but hard to blow up! probably best with a foot pump (not something you take in your luggage)

This is fantastic for my son and absolutely huge for the price, my pool.is 7 ft wide and 13ft in length and it was still to big to sit on the water definitely recommend for large pools. Lots of summer fun

Would be 5 stars however it turned up without a net which we didn't realise until we got on holiday. Fortunately we had to improvise

Hours and hours of fun on family holiday for kids (big and small). Survived a week long thrashing.

Great buy. Lots of fun and it worked well.

Bought this to take on on holiday with us to our rented villa which had a private pool and it was well worth making room in the luggage for (doesn't actually take up that much space). Using a foot pump (not provided) the kids got it blown up in no time. The fiddly bit came in attaching the net and then working out what to do with the anchors (2 bags attached to strings that you fill with rocks to weigh each end of the net down in the pool). They didn't work that well IN the pool so we ended up having one on the side of the pool and the other end of the net attached by string to a chair on the other side. Apart from that it was well used throughout the holiday and provided hours of entertainment. We did pick up a puncture when manoeuvring it around (our fault) but the patch provided in the kit did a good job of fixing it. Well recommended at the price and we expect to use it for many years to come.
