Side by Side Comparison of: BLOSSOMZ vs Little Tikes

Great slide!!!!! We have it indoors for my 4 yr old daughter. She loves it!!! Therefore so do I!!! It's cute, sturdy...what's not to like? Really awesome indoor activity!! Also bigger than other indoor/outdoor slides!

Love this slide. My granddaughter has had this now for a few years through the rain and wind and it has held up. She still plays on it and she is 4 yrs old. She now slides into her little pool! Great buy....definitely recommend!

Very sturdy and pretty darn tall! It's way more impressive than the little slide for very small toddlers we bought. Our daughter is 37" tall two year old and just loves this! I was worried it wouldn't be fun enough or big enough! It's perfect! We have it downstairs and it doesn't take up too much room. Really great!

Great slide! I wanted something bigger/taller than the typical indoor slide. It's great quality and my daughter loves it!!! Would highly recommend to any parents, it's lots of bang for your buck!!!

The slide is very well made, virtually no assembly required. Not only does my daughter get enjoyment from the slide but so do all of her stuffed animals and other toys she allows to use it! LOL! The ease of moving the slide in and out of the house, depending on weather, guarantees she will always have something fun to do!

My 2 1/2 year old loves this! It's so easy to fold up. She plays on it nonstop and it really is great for indoors and out doors.

Provided you have 2 people, assembly is quick but difficult. Inserting the metal rod connecting the slide to the ladder requires one person to push the plastic parts tightly together and another person to cap both ends of the rod.Other than that, this slide is fantastic! I love that it folds for storage! Five stars!

My 2 yr old had a blast today with his new slide. The other slide I bought him was way to small and his friends could fit either ( American Plastic Toys ) . This one was easy to put together and everyone enjoyed it. He can actually grow into it! Wish I would have bought this one the first go round!

(2-4-2016) To Little Tikes Corp & Customers: My wonderful 2 1/2year old LOVES SLIDES, we spent majority of last summer; I'm talking about 6-8hour days, 3-4 days a week; at the best community park here in SE Fort Wayne Indiana. My Nycelina would spend about 10% of her valuable time weating and snacking, 5% resting her little body by my side (including poddy breaks), and 85% of her time on the multiple variety of slides available...once she discovered playground slides it was all over with ... Indoors, she would place pillows or use her mattress to slang from the couch to the floor... And she would do her best sliding down on her makeshift slide... Since Christmas I have been searching for a toddler slide that could be indoors or outdoors...from step 2 to alpine ridge, American plastic as well as YOURS TRULY: Little Tikes. I knew adventually I would "bite the bullet" and pay the outrageous price of 50$-200$ on a slide for my Nycelina. However I was not expecting to do it so soon! When I saw my daughter sliding her cinnioman toast crunch cereal pieces down slides on the back of the box ...I knew the time to purchase was now. However, $100.00 or more is hard for anyone in the lower middle class, single motherville, to spend on a single slide, I mean the 9-5 job barely covers bills..so buying a luxury is "priceless" to us....WITH THAT SAID!!!! FELLOW PURCHASERS...THIS SLIDE IS WORTH EVERY DIME SPENT AND THEN SOME! The plastic is durable and so far has been able to endure the wrath of an energetic toddler PLUS her three ROUGH HOUSING BOY COUSINS! The slide itself was not difficult to put together once I read the directions (and had a man to help me; little me couldn't hack it)...and I truly believe if my daughter could sleep on it she would! Non stop fun for my daughter, her stuffed animals and her cousins..OKAY I ADMIT IT, MYSELF INCLUDED.. (Product weigh limit is 75lbs; I am a little less than 120lbs)... I had to make sure it was safe, other involved energetic mommies will understand ;)... The SLIDES SLOPE is wonderful for an indoor/outdoor piece .... My daughter is 32 inches in length and I would not suggest paying for a smaller slide for a toddlers first slide in general... TODDLERS GROW SO FAST..SO WHY SPEND AROUND $60+tax/shipping for a FIRST TODDLER SLIDE YOU WILL PROBABLY HAVE TO REPLACE IN A YEAR DUE TO YOUR CHILD OUTGROWING IT? That was my first thought when I looked at the smaller version of the slide ... Now that it's all said and done with, I am glad I rationalize this in my mind and bought what I consider to be the wiser choice of the toddler slides now that is all said and done with...... She would not have as much fun sliding down a slide that was less than a foot to the ground once she sat on it... The bigger slide offers my daughter so much more joy and thrills not to mention the slide offers my toddler room to grow and still enjoy the slide for months and months to come .... COMPLETELY WORTH THE EXTRA 30-40$...Little Tikes was the brand that I went with because of the durable plastic that their product is made of. And most of all, the fact that it is not an Overwhelming Big and Bulky product for the indoors!.... It actually fits quite nice in our small/moderate home without looking tacky. I RECOMMEND THIS PRODUCT FOR CUSTOMERS WITH 1-3 YOUNGER CHILDREN... Please Note that between my sister and myself, we buy multiple brands and multiple toys for our children to have at home and at the grandparents homes...combine us and you have an entire toys r us for our total of 4 children...ages 2, 2 1/2, 4, and 6.. One girl (my baby) and her three boys!! Both genders LOVE THIS SLIDE AND HAVE HOURS AND HOURS OF FUN... BOTH SUPERVISED AND MODERATE SUPERVISION (not hovering)....This toddler slide has Wide Steps and Easy Grip Plastic to stop themselves from going to fast if they wish as well as the ability to be climbing up the steps to the platform to sit on with ease...This Specific Little Tikes Product Absolutely Exceeded My Expectations.... LASTLY TO AMAZON.COM, Thank you so much for FREE SHIPPING, FAST SERVICES AND DELIVERY!! Your company is always wonderful though :)

Assembly by myself was fairly easy, except for one aggravating step, which was getting the ladder to fit snug in the base. Once assembled, the slide is very sturdy.Most important Pros:--The steps are easy for a toddler to climb, thanks to the built-in handrail/extended sides. My son has never fallen while climbing up, even though he's always in a rush to get back up those steps.--Perfect size for a 2-3 year old. Big enough to feel adventurous, yet small enough to feel comfortable that even if he did misstep and fall off, he wouldn't be too bad off when landing.Cons:--????, no cons I can think of, which is a rarity for me...--However, I will note as a WARNING to others, that yesterday when leaning down to pick up a football that rolled under the slide, I noticed a wasp's nest tucked up underneath the 2nd step from the top, by where the arm hooks to the steps (picture included). It's a perfect place for the wasps, but thankfully an easy place to spray. My 2-year old had been playing on the slide minutes earlier, thankfully temps were just cool enough to keep the wasps lethargic.(That's the reason I am posting this review. Hopefully someone will read this and check and find a nest under their steps, and if it prevents one toddler from being stung, then it was worth my time!!)

I have a 3yr old who is tall for his age and I got this because it is more sturdy and will last longer then the other ones. It is the perfect height and I love that I can store it in my son's closet (we live in a condo so no grass). Yes it is bit big to store there, but I would rather have a big slide that works and is fun then a tiny one that doesn't. Great product! Very pleased! No problems with it at all! Definitely worth the money.

This slide is pretty great. I have one on my deck that I bought used and one in the house for rainy days! We sometimes put a wading pool with pit balls in it at the bottom, for added excitement. THe slide is easy to fold and move around once assembled and easy to clean. It's made of plastic so wont be devastating if your little one knocks their head, arms or legs on it. I like this lively green and blue color combo. Just a note, the slide that I have outside has some stuff inside the slide portion and had collected water in it. I don't know if that's because of the way it was stored before I purchased it, but I would suggest that if keeping it outdoors, keep it upright, don't fold it and leave it outside for water to get in.

My Kids absolutely love this slide! I had a little problem with assembling it. It would have helped if the instruction were clear for ppl like me lol.

Kids are loving it. It's a big slide for ages 2-5. Easily assembled and just fold to store. I did have to use a little sandpaper to buff out some sharp edges along the plastic seams. After some playtime with the kids, I realized that this slide should have a few adjustments... Bigger lips! By that I mean, the sides of the slide should probably be a bit taller (as I noticed when my daughter fell off the side). And the handrails should have more recessed curvature for little hands to have better grip. Side note: you can add small strips of grip tape (used on boats and skateboards) to the steps. I prefer Step2 play equipment over many other brands.

its OK.

Granddaughter loves it. Good exercise, up and down and up and down. She even rolled head first once, did not hurt her.

We bought this for our daughter (2.5) to use in the house, because she had outgrown her infant climbing structure with a tiny slide. At first I was a little bit nervous about the way she stood straight up at the top and then had to crouch down to get into sliding position, but she gained confidence quickly, and so did I. This slide is pretty fast, which she loves. It's nice that it folds flat, but it does take some force to get it into/out of the locked position. A rubber mallet is helpful. I think we'll take it outside this summer and let her slide into her inflatable pool and then maybe slide into the leaves in the fall. I think she will enjoy it for a few years!

Bought it for our granddaughter for Christmas. She was only one year old, but we could place her at the top and hold her while she slide down. Now she is about 15 months, and she can climb the ladder and mostly seat herself and slide down. I see she will get better with time. We went with the larger size so she could use it longer, and she's the active sort.The men put it together, and only had trouble getting the bottom of the ladder into the plastic base. They had to really slam it several times, and I thought they were going to break it. It seems fine though...but wow!

Was a challenge to assemble, needs someone heavy step on first step with both feet for a while while other person works on getting the ladder in base. Otherwise so wonderful to have.

We ordered this slide for an active toddler. While somewhat pricier than other plastic slides in stores, it was worth the extra cost as we were looking for something that could grow with our child, beyond the toddler years. Many of the slides we looked at were too small or would be outgrown quickly. The extra height is worth it! The slide itself is a little narrower than anticipated however the outer ridges are appreciated for a younger child. The slide gives you an opening to add water to weigh it down but is fairly sturdy without. While there wasn't too much required for assembly beyond snapping the the large pieces together, it did take the weight of two adults to get the stairs clipped in to the base. Once that was done, however, the rest of the assembly took about 5 minutes. All in all, this slide is a purchase our whole family is happy about.

I love this slide and so does my 2 year old daughter. The size is true to picture. It's nice that it's collapsible but as amazing of a feature as I expected. I thought I'd be putting it up and down a lot more than I do in actuality. Even all the way collapsed it's super bulky, definitely takes up more space than expected, but at the same time, a lot of slides don't collapse so you're getting a nice feature. Additionally, the platform for the steps is a LOT wider than shown. I thought the little green stabilizers sticking out from the bottom of the ladder were about as wide as the slide part or a litle wider. In fact they're about 2 times as wide as the slide piece, I'm guessing close to 3 feet wide. So the ladder side takes up quite a bit of real estate.The little lock between the ladder and the slide probably is a good feature, but randomly I'll walk by and mine is popped out. Not sure if it majorly affects the safety. Based on the design I don't see how it's popping out, but it is. 30 seconds is all it takes to fix it.Also, be careful when building. You have to thread a metal pipe through the ladder and slide part and then you put this little red cap things and hammer with a special tool to "squeeze" the pieces together for a permanent togetherness. I accidentally got one of bracket pieces pushed too far in and now the protective red cover doesn't stay on. Not a huge deal, but it's definitely a little less safe with the exposed metal pipe.

The kids are very happy with the slide. Pitty that I am old and fat to use that nice slide

The slide is good except for the fact that the base did not connect too well.

Huge gash (cut) right in the middle of the slide. Also, was SUPER difficult to put the two green pieces together. needed two people for sure!

I bought this slide after reading reviews as it is listed as the #1 slide for preschoolers and toddlers. I was not very happy with the way slide looked when we took it out of the box. It was scratched up from barely fitting in the box it was in, wasn't in the original box not sure why?? Also, some of the molding along the edges of the slide in particular the top of the handles were really sharp. I sanded the rough edges before I let my little guy play on the slide and I'm putting foam tiles under it as it isn't the most stable slide around. Won't let my little one play on it without supervision. It's not fun to put together either if any of the moldings are off even just a little bit it's really a struggle to get the different parts into place. The kids love the slide, I just think it could be a lot better.

There are inconsistencies in the thickness of the plastic from one side of the slide to the other. One side seemed very flexible. Also the mold lines are very sharp and can probably cut bare feet. You'll probably need to clean these up yourself because the manufacturer can't be bothered.Overall I think it was worth purchasing, but I'm not impressed with it.

Came in a huge box, while trying to attach stairs to base is a problem as others also said. Directions is to slam it on the floor, tried to slam it on floor many times, it did not work. Ultimately the key is to heat base a little, I used a heat gun but you can use a hair dryer. Heated a little not for long or u will melt plastic. With one slam on the floor it went right in!

The slide is great but assembly was a nightmare so I took away 1 star! For something with 4 pieces, I don't really understand why it has to be so difficult. This is not a 1 person job because the holes do not align easily at all. I was so frustrated with this thing I almost sent it back after trying to get the holes aligned for an hour. Luckily for my kids, I called a friend over to help hold it together so I could put it together. Even so, it took a few tries and we are not incompetent people. My 3 and 5 year olds love the slide though so I guess it was worth it.

This item was very poorly constructed. The holes for the connecting pole to go through were not lined up properly and we had to cut them larger to get the product assembled. I do not recommend this product

Like many other reviews this was nearly impossible to put togerher because of a defect. After two adults trying for an hour we brought in grandpa. He cut an additional hole in the base to get the stairs to fit and finally got it to work. Now it's fantastic. It seems hit or miss if you get a regular or defective one. Amazons options are basically exchange or refund. Trying to take it apart to get back in the box would have been awful. So basically if you buy this do it with enough time to send it back if there is something wrong. Otherwise it's a nice tall slide. It's not slick so the kids don't go down super quick like the smaller slides. But my two year old still likes it.

1st off I returned it for the following reasons. The base would not stay on it. There was no written instructions only pictures that was a little confusing. I am a 59 year old female who can read and write so they should have had written instructions to go along with the illustrations. They claim it to be a large slide for ages 2 - 8 years old. Well my grand child is 2 1/2 and weights 30 pounds, she just barely fit into this slide. The slide is too narrow. Now as far as the height of the slide it is dangerous only because there isn't enough support on the ladders edge. The child could easierly fall over. If you buy don't throw away your box. You will need it later for returning it. Good Luck!

Kinda small. Step 2 slide is a lot bigger and better built. This slide was very hard to assemble. You definitely need two people to assemble it.

We purchased this for our grandkids for Easter. But when we went to put it together it was missing pieces ... so that meant NO Easter gift from us. Very disappointing!! Not sure what we are going to do now with this huge box that was not in good shape to begin with and now we are stuck with this huge slide that we can't even use because of missing pieces.

I received the ladder and slide but I have to hardware to put the product together - the middle piece was not in package either - I can't use it as it is and I am having a problem finding out how to get back with you to get it corrected as I want the slide for my grandson. I would like for someone to respond to me and let me know if the hardware is coming in a separate box.

I was very excited to get this slide as a birthday gift for my 5 year old niece. She is super energetic and loves to climb on things (such as exercise machines), and I also loved the pink color. I was so disappointed when it arrived to find that it was too small for her. While she could have fit on it, it would not have been comfortable and I did not feel right about giving it to her as a birthday gift. She is petite, too. Difficulties abound in working with the seller on returning it. Disappointing and bad experience.

Came in with missing pieces

DO NOT BUY! I thought I'd be able to put this together (purchased for Christmas) but have not. I may have a flawed item. I am a single mom and have no male that I would allow in my house to attempt to put this together so I just wasted hard earned money. NEVER AGAIN, LITTLE TIKES, NEVER AGAIN!

Terrible shipping...the slide came without the joining parts so it was impossible to use it!!

Son-In-Law was putting together last night...Christmas Eve and found we are missing a part. Not a happy Grandma!!!!

really disappointed i got a used, unclean slide and with only 3 pieces so i couldn't even put it together, i guess for the price i payed you get a incomplete one and dirty.

unfortunately i got my slide with missing parts which was getting the ladder to fit snug in the base. the kids could not play because it useless.
