The Best Inflatable Pools with Water Slides
Our favorite water-based bounce houses and inflatable slides.
What's more fun than a regular bounce house? Playing around in a bounce house that is also splash pool.
Kids everywhere love spending hot days in the water—and they enjoy a good water slide, too. If there's something like a water cannon or a basketball hoop, that's all the better!
Of course, it's not just about the bells and whistles that come with the set. It's about how resilient and long-lasting the whole setup is. You'll want something dependable for your family, something that will serve you for years to come. (That's especially true in our current times, where going out to a public splash park, inflatable play center or common swimming pool is simply not an option in many places.)
As a kid, I loved playing in sprinklers and going to swimming pools. I didn't have an at-home inflatable set up, as it simply was not practical for where I lived. However, in another universe, I would have had hours of fun with any of the slides I'm about to show you. I hope your kids can have fun with them as they learn and grow!
Naturally, there are a plethora of inflatable pools on the market. How can you know which one is the best inflatable pool slide for you? Look no further! We've compiled the list for you.
Also, whatever you do, don't forget to clean your bounce house. Cleaning a bounce house is an absolute must to prevent the spread of germs.
The Best Inflatable Pools with Water Slides
Now that you've seen the basic list, I'm going to detail why each slide made it as one of our top picks. I have considered the objective facts of the matter, scoured reviews, and even considered any parental input. Ideally, the result is a helpful and insightful guide.
So, come on - let's jump right in!
PicassoTiles Water Slide Park
The PicassoTiles Water Park is a kid-tested, parent-approved slash pool that's as fun as it is colorful. The manufacturer uses heavy-duty fabric to ensure durability. Not only that, but the material doesn't have any toxic compounds, which means your kids can splash safe!
The Water Park is super simple to set up and take down. That means your kids won't have to wait long to play with the water cannon or the climbing wall! Heck, kids have fun with this bouncy house even when there's no water in it! Overall, you can't go wrong with the PicassoTiles Water Park.
WHY IT'S #1 Kids and parents love it, and it's not hard to see why. It has enough features to keep kids engaged while not offering so many as to be excessive. Moreover, parents can rest assured that each part of the slide bouncer, from the air blower to the fabric, meets rigorous safety standards.
The good: Pretty much everything about this inflatable pool is good. Parents rave about how easy it is to set up this water park. The price point is fantastic, too, especially considering how many entertaining and sound features it has. Your whole family is bound to love this one. Plus, it's a good bounce house for toddlers.
The bad: I don't have many negative things to say about this slide. It has a weight limit of 200 lbs and a child limit of three, so it may not be ideal for larger families. Apart from that, it's a reliable toy that will keep children engaged for hours.
WELLFUNTIME Inflatable Water Slide with Splash Pool
If you want something a bit fancier than my first pick, try this one on for size. The WELLFUNTIME Inflatable Water Slide with Splash Pool has almost everything. We're talking about a climbing wall, a bucket, and multiple sprayers. This inflatable water park doesn't have a basketball hoop—but it does come with an inflatable basketball, along with a volleyball and a soccer ball!
WHY IT'S #2 This slide includes an array of different features that will keep your kids occupied for hours. Not only is it a fun and exciting option for a pool, but it offers plenty of physical activities to keep your little ones active and healthy.
The good Setting up this splash pool is a breeze; you can fill it with a garden hose. It's also got all sorts of fun pool toys, including floating balls and water guns. There's no end to the kinds of fun physical activity your children can get up to with this kiddie pool.
The bad This model's the priciest on this list. It's definitely worth the cost if it's what you're looking for, but not everybody's looking for the full nine yards. If you're willing to go with something more simplistic, try another one of the water slides here.
Sunny & Fun Deluxe Inflatable Water Slide Park
Sunny & Fun's Deluxe Inflatable Water Slide Park is simplistic yet comprehensive in its design. With two slides, two sprayers, a water cannon, and a climbing wall, this inflatable water park gives kids plenty of fun without leaving you with a million different pieces of which to keep track.
WHY IT'S #3 This pick is the first one on this list to feature curved slide designs. It's quite similar to the PicassoTiles Water Park apart from that, albeit a bit bigger. The nylon fabric is dependable, and it's got an appealing primary color scheme.
The good Assembly is quick and easy, only requiring the included air pump and a garden hose. It can also handle several kids at once, which makes it great for larger families. Really, with its weight limit of 350 lbs, this slide can accommodate the young at heart, too.
The bad While this inflatable water park is a solid choice, you know what would bump it up a spot? PVC. The nylon might be durable on its own, but nylon-PVC blends tend to be even more durable.
Banzai Huge Kids Pool with Built-In Sprinkler Wave and Basketball Hoop
Want to shoot some hoops? As you might expect, you can do just that with the Banzai Huge Kids Pool. This one's got the whole package as far as features go: a basketball hoop (and inflatable basketball), a climbing wall, a sprinkler, a wave functionality, and—of course—a slide.
WHY IT'S #4 Banzai is a trustworthy name in the world of inflatables. When you invest in the Banzai Huge Kids Pool with Built-In Sprinkler Wave and Basketball Hoop, you know you're investing in something worthwhile.
The good There's something for every kid here. Do you have a kid who likes throwing balls every which way? This splash pool has a ball and hoop. Does your child like playing in the sprinkler? They can do that here. Do your children love running about and climbing up whatever they can? They'll have tons of fun with the climbing wall.
Meanwhile, you'll love how convenient it is to set this inflatable water park up. It inflates super quickly, and you can use your garden hose to keep the water flowing in the pool.
The bad Not everybody has had a great experience with the fabric of this one. Whether it's the seams coming apart or the fabric tearing, some customers have reported durability issues. The slide pool does come with repair patches for smaller rips. However, if you're concerned about anything more prominent, you might want to consider another slide.
Posch Sports 4-in-1 Water Slide, Wading Pool, and Ring Toss
Everyone has to start somewhere, and this slide is an excellent place to do that. Though it is little, the Posch Sports 4-in-1 Inflatable Water Slide & Wading Pool is guaranteed to keep kids amused with its gentle slide and colorful ring toss accessories.
WHY IT'S #5 I couldn't not include this one on the list. It's not the most impressive splash pool out there, but it's great if you've got a younger family. With its basic setup, the Posch Sports 4-in-1 Inflatable Water Slide & Wading Pool is a formidable first step into the world of inflatable pools.
The good The whale design is adorable. Who can say no to something so cute? The ring-toss game is also pretty neat, and the price truly cannot be beaten. It's a nice, simple water slide for younger children.
The bad It's pretty small—easily the smallest on this list. As such, if you've got older or bigger kids, you'll want to invest in another water slide. (Of course, if you've got limited yard space, then this negative could just as quickly become a positive for you.)
Sportspower My First Inflatable Water Slide - Heavy-Duty Outdoor Slide with Water Cannon and Splash Pool
Another solid choice. Easy set up. Straight forward. Hours of fun.
Bestway Tsunami Waves Summit Inflatable Water Park Play Center
Now this is a SERIOUS pool water slide. Actually, let's just call it what it is, an inflatable water park. Your town should charge you extra on your annual tax bill because it's its own accessory building. There's a climbing wall, water basketball hoop, 2 slides, water sprayers, and more. It's made for little tikes, and possibly medium tikes too if we're being honest. You're kids will enjoy visiting bounceland on the H2OGO Tsunami Summit, especially with the kahuna sized waves.
The good: More like great, as in, this thing is pretty great.
The bad: The price.
INTEX Kool Splash Inflatable Swimming Pool Water Slide
For those of you who have a pool and don't need an inflatable bouncer, try the Intex Kool Splash Inflatable pool slides. It's a blast. Just hook up your garden hose to get the water flowing and the kids will be off to the races.
Note - these serve as a good diving board replacement. Swimline also makes one.
