Great toy that all my children love5
Bought for my five year old who was obsessed with rockets at the time. This toy has proved an absolute winner through the summer with every child visiting the house being shown the rocket and then playing with it with much laughter and fascination. Still working after the summer!

Sky's the Limit5
Well we have just tried ours out and it is awesome!

Easy to set up and use, but do be careful as if you try to set it up when very windy it could have an aborted mission (fall from its launch pad).

You really do need someone to hold the rocket when you are pumping it up (just so that it doesn't fall over).

I must admit we were all surprised at how big it was when assembled, big.

Great fun for kids and adults and a novel plaything for any party.

Just watch out for being the one that has to hold onto the rocket for 'lift off' though as you could get a light splash, but that is half the fun.

It goes high and far, not to be used in confined spaces. One big think to remember though is that when you take it somewhere to use you do need water to use it.

Awsome or Awful?2
The way this product was presented to me was totally unacceptable.

1. The water sealing washer at the base of the rocket was misshapen and too small, so water and air were escaping while trying to pump in air.
2. The same plastic fitting that holds the above washer was damaged at the nozzle end and was preventing the rocket from snapping into it's launching socket.
3. The shraeder valve securing nut had not been tightened which effected the brass seating for the rocket seal.

The above faults were found after many attempts to launch the rocket and really disappointing my grandchildren.The maximum altitude we achieved was about 2metres.
As this product is fairly cheap and very heavy it wasnt worth the cost of returning.

I have recently stripped the assembly comletely and remade some of the sealing components.It hasn,t yet been tested but I am more hopeful!
