Giant Beach Ball Aqua Splash Soccer by Banzai

Glad I didn't pay for this! My daughter actually won this at a church party. It doesn't bounce as the picture appeares that it does, or from the description on the box! It just lays on the ground. My 11year old said its like a big ball with water coming out of it. She said it was boring but did get you a little wet. Overall...definitely not worth the money!

I bought this product and it was broken before I used it. First off, the picture on the package is misleading. It was photoshopped to make the ball 2x larger that it really is. This is NOT a giant beach ball. It is about 14 in in diameter making it about standard as far as beach balls go. This is this third product from the company that I purchased this summer and all three were defective from the first use. On all three, the sprinkler parts broke at the seams because many of the sprinkler outlets were not properly drilled so the internal pressure was too great. I would guess that all of their products are defective and would suggest to anyone who is considering purchasing one to buy something else. I would even hesitate to call Banzai a company. With a 100 percent failure rate, they are more like a collective of scam artists.

I bought this for my daughter against my better judgment. Simple laws of gravity would indicate that a giant ball filled with water is not going to bounce around "everywhere" the way the packaging claims. And, again, Mother Nature wins. The ball just sits like a lump on the ground, spraying out water while the children try to move it. Only they can't because - who'd have guessed it - a giant ball filled with water can be quite heavy. My kids' reaction? Darn!
