CROSSNET H2O Volleyball Pool Game - Four Square Net - Quick Assemble & Portable - Perfect Pool Toys for All Families W/Accessories

I bought this nearly 3 years ago. We play at our local community center pool twice a week and have used at our home pool. It has held up very well, we have so much fun. Easy to assemble and transport. Love it!

This was a gift for my 5 year old nephew. While he can’t stand in our pool he sits on a floatie and plays. Assembly was super simple, took about 15 minutes with 2 people. Easy to put together and take down (partially). We are in Chicago, too windy to leave floating in the pool plus our solar cover. Ball is super light, kids could hit it and didn’t hurt them. Also used the net with inflatiable balls to give a different element. Net is large, we have a 12x24 pool so had to turn it slightly on an angle to fit. Provided lots of hours of fun. The tied weights are a smart idea so it doesn’t float away during the game. Only possible improvement would be interlocking pieces (think like a Walker where you can adjust the heights). Sometimes with the movement and waves the pieces become unconnected. All in all easy to put together, light, doesn’t take up too much room, fun for all ages. Highly recommend.

Assembly didn't take long - though if (like me) you don't have a nice wide open space next to your pool in which to put it together, you'll probably need at least one more pair of hands to help.Once the structure is in place, CrossNet is a lot of fun. It kept my 11-yr-old (who is often bored quickly) and two of his friends occupied for a few hours. It helped that they were already familiar with the concept of the game due to having played something like it at school.While I appreciate the folding arms which support the nets (and I suspect they are superior to the first edition made from pvc pipes and pool noodles), I do wish it were possible to at least partially fold the bulky structure for storage without completely dissembling it. However, there is no shortcut to make it smaller for storage - so I completely disassembled it, and stored in my garage for next time.Pro- CrossNet H2O is easier than volleyball for kids.- The net is not very tall, making it easier for kids (or smaller adults) who struggle with a traditional volleyball net suspended above the water.- The net sits on the surface of the water, so there is no room for the ball to go underneath.Con- Included anchor weights, when on the bottom of a pool, do not effectively hold the structure in place.- Instead, I set the weights out of the water on three sides of the pool and hooked a bungee cord to the fourth and a wall outside the pool. It wasn't a perfect solution, but it was good enough; I will keep working to find better ways to secure it.- I received only three of what should have been four carabiners; fortunately, that was not a problem since I didn't use the fourth anchor weight.Other- Measure before you buy, if you have a small pool.- Long term durability seems a little questionable, but so far so good. We'll see how long the inflatable parts last.

Game shows great promise until you put it together and put it in the pool.1: the pieces come off easily, it does not have anything to hold it together nor snap in together at the joints or elbow sections. this goes for all the pieces. it collapses during game play easily and you spend more time fixing it than playing. its just not worth it.2: the included sandbags arent heavy enough to hold the net in place. it moves continously defeating the purpose of the anchor sand weights.3: the ball shows great grip, however it tears at the seam from hitting. poorly made.overall the product could be great if it had been tested before it was produced.overall, great design concept with poor implementation execution.it is not worth the amount charged as it has more of a non functional prototype that needs to return to re-design.

Product sets up fairly easy but you should setup in the water. Product legs are a bit flimsy and once the net is installed tend to bend. So picking up you need to support all the legs or they really bend and twist. We also had some small metal washer type pieces fall off so be careful if your pool has a vinyl liner. Overall fun but worry about long term use.

Good product my kids love it

It’s easy to assemble, the size and style of the game is a great idea. We’ve had our pool for 10years so I know what is going to hold up and what is not. I would buy this for $50 but it’s not worth anything more than that. The worst part is the “floats” are just blow up cheep plastic that I doubt will last the summer. They should use a high quality foam, not dollar store plastic. We wanted to love this and it’s a perfect size for our pool but it’s not worth the price tag.

Bought this after seeing some people playing it over the weekend at the lake.Here are my thoughts after buying it.1. Box comes packaged really well and is also easy to put back in when done.2. I was worried about the durability but after setting it completely up and using it, it’s very durable even with someone spiking the ball over it and hitting it.3. It dries quickly which helps when we are ready to go.4. People will constantly ask what it is and where to buy it. Probably the most annoying part of owning this (sarcasm to the highest degree!Overall, it’s a cool addition to the pool and even at the lake near the shore. I’m looking forward to using it more over the summer!
