Banzai Water Slides May Be Smaller Than They Appear

During a hot summer day, nothing is nicer than a dip in the pool. Unfortunately, not all parents can afford pools for their children. Fortunately, there are a wide variety of affordable and fun alternatives for backyard water fun, from the trusty slip ‘n slide to the plastic wading pool. In fact, consumers have many choices in buying backyard plastic pools and water slides. This is good news for consumers, so long as pool and slide manufacturers fairly and truthfully market their wares.

Unfortunately, some companies do not do so. It appears that one such company, Banzai Water Slides, may be unfairly representing the size of its waterslides to gain an unfair advantage over its competitors. Banzai sells a variety of backyard inflatable waterslides and pools, some of which are quite large (and no doubt fun). However, it appears that Banzai misrepresents the size of some of its pools in its advertisements.  Some consumers report that at least two of its inflatable pools, the Banzai Slide ‘N Splash Whale Pool and the Banzai Wild Waves Water Park, are substantially smaller than the pictures that appear on the box and in advertisements. For example, pictures advertising the Banzai Slide ‘N Splash Whale Pool show two children on a slide that goes into a pool, where two other children lounge. In reality, the pool is too small for any normal size child, and the slide is only a few feet tall. Pictures representing the Banzai’s Wild Waves Water Park appear to be similarly deceptive.

Our team are investigating a potential consumer class action against Banzai Water Slides for its potentially deceptive representations concerning the size of its inflatable pools. If you or anyone you know has purchased a Banzai Water Slide that is smaller than depicted, please contact us to discuss your legal options.
