Does this bounce house need to be set up on grass? We want to use it on concrete, and thus won't be able to use any stakes.

We had ours on the back deck last year and it worked great. The weight of the water in the pool helped hold it down and we tethered the back to a post on the porch. Our son loves it so much. It's a great buy.

You can use on the concrete as long you have a tarp underneath the bounce house. You can use fatigue mat or interlocking squares under neath it as well for good padding so the kids do not get hurt. You can tie the bounce house to anything heavy so it will not move around.

I think it would need grass because when they come down the slide they hit the bottom pretty fast when it's wet. Concrete might rip the material faster or hurt their bottoms when they land at bottom of slide. The whole Bounce moves a bit when they are in there jumping. With water in the base we didn't need to stake it down.

I would say it definitely needs to be placed on concrete (not turf or dirt), and I think once put together it would be difficult to take apart. I love the flooring- I use it in a section in my garage to make a nice transition into finished space, but I don't think it would come apart easily once put together.

Yes it does run on grass. I put mine through intense stress tests and it's held up. It's a horrible toy, don't get me wrong but we figured out how to have fun with it. One kids handles the steering and another kid sort of "bowls" the cycle like a bowling ball towards the ramp. We probably have 50 hours on this thing and I've only seen 3 back flips. The biggest problem is the steering and balance. To turn around from one direction back to you, you will an entire culdesac. No driveway is wide enough.Bottom line...If you are completely OK with destroying this thing, it can be fun. If you are worried about hurting this or the ramp, then this isn't for you. I suggest a 4 wheeler dude instead. Yes it does run on grass. I put mine through intense stress tests and it's held up.

We use ours outside and it with stands the force of a college player rebounding, I would suggest putting bricks or weights. Our grass is dense enough.

It can go on the grass, probably won't be as stable without the floor kit. Also very difficult to put together yourself

you do not need to stake it down, only if it is windy and for you on a driveway you can put sand bags on the legs if needed for wind. i have looked up other screens and i am glad i picked this one.............hope this helped you.

As long as the gound is level you could put it on grass. You would need to put down plastic or root guard to make sure grass doesn't grow through though.

I would put a tarp under it setting it up in grass or on concrete. Not sure where u are putting it just make sure area is clear of anything that can puncture it.

Not recommended for concrete. The friction will wear holes in the material and its very safe because if you fall you could seriously injure yourself. Recommend grass only. Hope this helps.

We used it in our grass area but never left it outside. There is tarp like material on the bottom that is durable, but you could always put down a real tarp to help protect the material. It is not as durable as a real tent but for kid play on a soft area like grass it was fine for us.

It's powered by your child , so grass should be really easy and gravel would work as your child got stronger. It's a great toy all my children loved it!

We used this on the grass and it was perfect. Since we had to secure/anchor it with stakes (we purchased additional larger stakes), to use it on cement I think you'd have to find a substitute for this process.

We use ours in the garage... stakes aren't necessary. We've used it outside without the stakes as well.

I have mine on grass without staking. It might want to slide on concrete when empty winding up a long run of hose. If that is the case you would just have to place your hand on the top and put medium pressure to hold in place until it has enough hose (weight) was in it to not slide - maybe 25 foot of a 75 foot hose. The unit is the best one I have had. Enought to buy a second one.

It can be set up on concrete but your are risking ripping it if it is played on roughly. I have had a couple of tips in my but they were easily repaired with nylon fishing line.

I have not had to stake it in the ground. The water weighs it down pretty well. It would be best to place this on grass because the kids do hit the ground as they come off of the slide so the grass is a softer landing. Concrete may hurt them. And the lagoon may get holes in it from rubbing on the concrete. So, I would only suggest grass.

I have it in my garage it moves a tiny bit once in a while and hasn't been an issue that I thought would need to be sand bagged. It comes with strips of fabric attached to the corners so you can stake it to the ground if outside. Or maybe tie it to sand bags. If it were outside I would think it should be staked down. I will also use a tarp under it when we use it outside so the ground doesn't get it dirty or puncture. If on a tarp it would move around more. I hope this helps. If you have more questions please ask. We love it so far. I defiantly recommend it.
