Costway Kids Inflatable Bouncy Castle

  • This is an excellent choice if you’re looking for a large bouncy castle type water park for your garden.

  • The other benefit is its dual purpose.

  • There’s also a safety mesh wall between the slide and the climbing wall to ensure their safety and provide ventilation.
  • Inflated size:  34 x 22 x 35cm

Bestway H2OGO! Hurricane Inflatable
