Can you do water in both sides? The reviews have me a bit confused about leaks, drain, and plugs.

Yes, you can, but there is only a drain plug on the 'water side'. What I do is drain the side with the plug and then just tip it to empty the rest. With water in both sides, you could just tip the whole thing sideways to empty, but the weight would put a strain on the legs that may cause them to give way if you aren't careful. When the side with the drain is emptied first, it is light enough to tip easily without straining the legs. I don't know what poster is talking about with respect to drilling your own holes, we didn't encounter any such issue with ours. For the price, it is in my opinion the best deal on a water/sand table out there. The quality is great, the umbrella is much larger than I expected so it provides great shade, and my grandkids love it!

Yes, in fact that's mostly how we use it because sand is expensive and gets wasted. YOu just need to read the other reviews about assembly, for some reason the company didn't put the holes in the right places and you have to drill your own holes but NOT go all the way through or you create the leaky holes yourself. I think some people get impatient and angry and just start hacking at it! lol But my husband, knowing the problem from reading other reviews, took his time and used his brain and it works just fine.

yes you can do water on both sides our granddaughter loves it has it for over a year now. We don't do sand she just plays in the water. Fills a water can and waters plants so cute.

One side is for water and the other is for sand. Only one side has a drain plug. My son likes to scoop the water to the other side and likewise the sand. So, yes you can do water on both sides, it won't leak out. Some say it leaks thru the holes for the legs, but that's not the case for ours. Hope this helps!

Yes. Sometimes they leak a little but I do put water in both sides and the children love it.

We've never had a problem with leaking, but there is no drain on the sand side so you'd have to dump the water over the side to empty it

The instructions say you can use either side...the plastic side seems unsafe.

Yes. It would mean the drain would be on the opposite side of the tray. We did ours on the left side.

It really does not matter. You can hook one end to the outlet and the other end to shower head. Just make sure you tighten both so no leakes,

I don't think the water will leak if it's on its side however the water flow may be hindered causing it not to pump correctly.

I guess you could do that, but depending how much water is in it could make it tricky, especially considering the corners where it folds. Just simpler and less chance of making a mess by using the plug.

It's pretty well designed for that. On the side of the unit (left side as you are looking at the front of it), there is a small cut out in the cover. On the inside, across fom this cut out, there is a standard 'garden' hose male thread. Just put a garden hose through the hole, screw it on, and your water is drained off to where you have the other end.

No, there is only a reservoir on one side, so you can easily flip it over to use the other side.

Ha ha....we were actually going to suggest that, but didnt know how to phrase it. Good for you using your noggin....sometimes a bubble of air can form in the plumbing and it is hard to get it out. Guess we will have to add "sucking" to our technical must do list! But that is often all it takes in cases where water is not being disbursed. Sometimes things get disconnected or air bubbles form during the rough ride across the ocean. Glad to see it worked out for you...its a good little machine for the money.

I recommend mounting the handle in the front and not to the left or right side. When mounted in the middle and your hands are wet, water from your hands drip in the sink and not on your counter top. Plus the faucet looks sleeker since the handle is not sticking out from the side.

Yes,You have to do one of the followingCap the hot inlet side so cold water will not leak out.OrInstall a TEE & feed both inlets with cold water

When I received the one I ordered it was not askew. Prior to installing it, I would suggest setting it on a surface where the main body is level and locking the rear access panel. Is there any gaps? If so, I would want to do an exchange. It could leak in rainy weather.

No. I purchased a drainage stopper from Amazon for one side. The second side is fitted with a garbage disposal.

do you have the drain piece installed properly? it should pop in and seal on both sides.

The soaker hose will only water a few inches on each side. Get two hoses and a Y connector.

Mike yes you can have the water come from the left or the right side of the tee and the valve part can set in several ways as to have it going strait through or have water going strait through + tee hope this helps

Both sides are the same, so it can be oriented either direction. Just be aware the motor and electrical connection is opposite the drain side.
