Water Sports ItzaPump Water Balloon Pump Filling Station, Color May Vary

I am a middle school teacher and had to plan an activity for a team day. It was June in CT and hot as heck, so I decided to buy a Water Balloon Launcher and have students shoot them to their team mates who were equipped with hula hoops to try to 'catch' the water balloons. I had no idea how I would fill 100s of water balloons, so I researched and found this. I was skeptical, but it was super easy to use and very helpful. Each bottle filled 15 - 20 balloons. It was easiest to pump and fill if you leave a couple inches at the top - do not fill it with water the entire way. I purchased two and one busted after a few fills. I believe the pump part came apart inside the shaft and there was no way for me to fix it. When pumping, pump it five inches or so - be careful to not pull it completely up or you risk knocking those parts off.I am giving this five stars despite the one that busted on me. It was super easy to use and made my life so much easier - I wish I had one of these growing up! My middle school students used it with ease, as well.

Best toy of the summer! All of the kids want to play with this pump and it has kept my 6 year old entertained for hours on end. This is the perfect item to teach younger kids how to fill water balloons. The only downside is that the filling of the water balloons is a little slow, so probably not a great item to build up a water balloon arsenal on the fly. You fill this jug with water, give it a few pumps and press the trigger to release a fairly strong streamed water. It's like an old fashioned seltzer bottle and has quickly become the water gun of choice at my house! The nozzle can also be adjusted for mist or stream so I also use it to entertain my water obsessed dog, shoo the cats out of the kitchen, mist my orchids and cool off the kids. It's awesome and so much fun even without water balloons!

We spent hours of fun with this! There are lots of good quality colorful balloons in it. You can either fill the water in the container and use it as a water balloon pump, OR you can simply pump it without water to blow water-less balloons as well! It was a big hit. My 4-year-old boy can even put the air in the balloon with this easy pump. I wish it could also tie the balloon, and this will get a million stars! But it's still great! I prefer this so much more than the self-tie water balloons that you connect to the water hose. Even though it was tempting and I purchased it, the self tie balloons leaked within minutes so it was such a waste! Get this one and it will go a long time! Oh, another tip! You can also use fill it with water and use this as a water gun! How fun!!

My kids (9 and 6) pooled their money together to get what they (we) thought would be a cool, quick water balloon filling gadget. Unfortunately, it's nothing of the sort. First, the included water balloons slide right off the end of the nozzle. We learned this the hard way, as a couple flew right off as we attempted to fill them, drenching the counter around the kitchen sink and the three of us surrounding it. Fortunately we had some better balloons on hand and we were able to fill several of them using the pump.Using the ItzaPump takes longer than using a hose spigot with a water balloon filling attachment. One full ItzaPump jug only filled about 8-10 balloons - which, for anyone who knows their stuff about water balloon fights, is nowhere near enough ammo. The description indicated that the pump comes with a balloon tying tool - not so. There was nothing of the sort, which is discouraging because kids often have a tough time tying water balloons. I was hoping that this gadget would take me out of the water balloon filling equation but unfortunately that's not the case. I still have to tie each balloon so I may as well fill them too.I don't expect this item to get a lot of use. It will be relegated to the garage where it may get pulled out every once in a while. Very disappointed with what seemed like a nifty idea.

Very fun for the kids of all ages

Would of gave 5 stars but your images are a bit misleading to make some people assume you're sell a 4 pump combo which is what I thought I was really getting. However the one ballon pump I got works great.

Just wanted to say that as far as I can tell it does not include the tying tool as is described in details and on picture. I haven't looked inside bottle, but it doesn't look as if it is anywhere included, which would have been nice. I DO read descriptions unlike most people. So Amazon, or vendor, if it isn't included, please fix the description!

This is the best machine for the price but it does not come with the knot tying device any longer. I called Stream Machine and they said they would send me once since they have "extras from last year." If you want to be sure to get the knot tying device, purchase another water balloon filler. It will be more expensive but will save you a step.
