Linda S: It's for our grandson's birthday in May. It seemed larger than some of the other water tables and looked to have more items on it to enjoy. It has a cute theme as well. Very nice looking.Apr 27, 2013
Chris S: My wife found it online and thought the kids would like it. She showed it to the kids along with 1 or 2 other items and this was the one they thought would be the most fun.Apr 22, 2013
Since I installed this table more than a year ago, I don't recall all the details. However, I did not have particular problems with installation following the directions. Be careful, plastic can strip easily if screwing too fast or too roughly. Good luck!May 13, 2013
KarolaW:Make sure you are not attempting to put the washer on the outside of the table. Oce we moved ours to the inside - the yellow screw was plenty long.May 21, 2013
A shopper asked:I can't figure out how to attach the water pump to that other piece. The screws are not long enough to attach those two pieces?Apr 21, 2013

KarolaW asked:Has anyone found a work around to make the slide and diving board less frustrating? My diving board just falls off, it's a pain to keep putting it back. However the slide doesn't even come close to fitting. It is slightly crooked and the peg underneath the slide, that should fit into the hole provided is way too short. The entire slide is at least 1/2" above the support it is suppose to rest on. Consequently the peg doesn't even come close to the hole.
Pouring water over the tree also does not make the waterwheels move. The water doesn't come close to hitting the right spots. And the octopus is suppose to do what? Is this table only suppose to have an inch of water? Any more than that and the octopus is swimming. Can't expect a toddler to make it spin if it doesn't even stay put where it belongs.
I don't believe exchanging the item is the solution. These appear to be design flaws that will not be rectified by asking for a replacement. Anyone come up with some home fixes?
thanks in advance for any comments, KarolaWMay 21, 2013
