Mattel Barbie Mermaid Falls Playset Take a tropical adventure in this beautiful water garden. Mermaid dolls can sit in the swinging seashell chair and enjoy a flower shower. Or, slide down the water slide by a luxurious waterfall with water-powered spinning flowers, right into the girl’s bathtub! Includes a miniature mermaid doll, a seashell spout for water play, and suction cups to affix to a bath wall. Also fits any 11.5″ Barbie doll (not included).
Customer Review: POOR QUALITY – Mattel Should be Ashamed
Like many of the reviews this waterslide is cute, but very poor quality. We didn’t get through even one bath with it working. The swing is held on by loose plastic clips that fall off (rubber bands I added did a better job), the slide is held up by magic (in our case I resorted to hot glue), and finally when ready to apply to the wall 2 of the 3 suction cups were useless (I haven’t found a solution to this one). Seriously, Mattel should be ashamed. Simple design flaws ruined this one!
Customer Review: Endless Bath time fun for the kids!
I have read the other reviews and had to leave a review, as my daughter received this for her 4 year birthday about 3 months ago. I have to say I wasn’t too excited to see another toy in the bathtub, as it is getting overcrowded with them in there. However, this toy is the best by far we have ever had in the bath! First, it uses a set of 3 large suction cups to stick to the wall. Suction cups will ONLY stick to smooth glazed tile….which we have the standard white 4×4 tiles in our bath – so this sticks well. Literally it has been up there since I put it on 3 months ago, and has not come down. If you have pretty porous actual stone like tiles- no this will not stick. No suction cups will stick to rough porous tile, so to the other reviewer- it is probably your tile- as you said it stuck to the bathtub. Now lets get to the fun! My 4 year old & 6 year old boy both like this toy ( my son doesn’t want to admit it), but it has 2 pumps that pump water from the little reservoirs and spray down….and they actually work surprisingly well. I have never had much luck with the pump toys in the tub – but this one actually has a nice little spray. The slide is cute too- but the kids really love the sprays and pumps. I recommend getting one of the Barbie Mermaid Dolls as well. we have one- and doesn’t’ get water stuck in her- so no mold;)
Since we got this toy – my daughter wants to pay an additional 20 minutes in the tub…which is my time to relax;) Overall – surprisingly FUN toy!
