            Maybe the kids on the box are just really, really small for their age

                  It's just another example of the evil you can do with photoshop.

                    I went to Walmart with my 8 year old and my 3 year old and they talked me into buying this piece of *%#* for them and when I set it up both my kids looked at it then at me like as to say "Hey Dad what did you do ?" I just shook my head and set up the old sprinkler. Kids really get the shaft these days and man it really stinks.

                      I'm sorry but if I buy that piece of crap i'd be back in that store getting my money back after I finish ripping them a new one

                        Yeah, I'd go back an raise hell. Even if they didn't want to take it back. Lame.

                          We own that POS. All the reviews are true. It's fine for one or two small kids to use as a wading pool. I knew the box picture had to be misleading. It was a clearance purchase that will be going in the trash in another couple weeks when the weather turns cool.

                              If you look at the picture comparisons closely, I don't think the boxed photo is photoshopped.

                              I think the model used on the box is a totally different and larger pool then what's being sold.

                              Look at the back of the slide.
                              Also, compare the side's depth with the overall size of the pool.

                              The picture on the box is clearly not the same pool as the one being sold.
