8Ft Giant Christmas Inflatable Train Outdoor Decorations, Kids Santa's Christmas Snowman Blow Up Yard Christmas Decoration Built-in LED Lights for Lawn Holiday Party Xmas Decor

This inflatable train is about 5 ft tall at the top of the tree and long horizontally, which makes it very stable once set up. For size reference, the taller child standing next to the tree in the photo is 5’2”. Because of its size, I expected it to take a long time to inflate, but it fully inflated in about 1 minute and 40 seconds, which was faster than expected. I use a timer so it turns on automatically in the evening. Depending on how it deflated, the blower sometimes didn’t start inflating properly when it turned back on. The inflatable already has built-in weights, but after opening the zipper and adding extra weight (a water-filled plastic bottle) near the blower, the issue was completely resolved. It seems the built-in weights alone may not always be enough to help it stand up properly. The zipper opening isn’t very large, so only small additional weights will fit. Compared to smaller inflatables I own, the blower is louder, but it’s also more powerful. It comes with six stakes and two ropes. I secured four base points directly to the ground with stakes. Be careful if your ground is very hard, as the stakes can break — one of ours did. The LED lights are brighter than I expected, and overall this is a fun, eye-catching decoration that looks great both during the day and at night.

Yes, it’s a lot bigger than I thought

This train was the worst thing ever my grandson asked for it As a prize For getting AB honor roll All year long on his report card. So I ordered it And it was put up Until Christmas. Now they pull it out he's all excited when they go to put it up it doesn't work at all. He is devastated. And that makes me devastated.
