It sounds like you have a defective unit. Consider making a case for such a claim with Amazon.com if that's where you purchased the unit.

Bike tire patches didn't work for us. We wound up using bits of pack cloth stuck on with PVC plumbing cement. The repairs were stronger than the rest of the raft. We also found the easiest way for us to find leaks is with a garden sprayer loaded with soapy water (obviously done outdoors) and look for the bubbles. Even slow leaks showed up easily this way.

I suggest removing the plug and reinstalling the plug. We haven't had any issues with leaking.

Mine leaked a little at first. Check rubber seals inside the screw on piece.I love this pool, one of the best purchases I've made to date. Look up inflatable intex hot tub. That's an even better buy!

You have to have a hose with a removable tip. Otherwise you'll have to tape it on there. I did that a few times but it is annoying to do. Some options are the Nogoom, Nammor, and certain Khalil Mamoon hoses.

I ran into the same problem. I ended up using washcloths where the foam touches the door frame. Easy fix. I haven't seen any foam replacements online.

Bogart, try mixing a little soap and water in a spray bottle. Use cold water and liquid soap and don't make bubbles.Inflate the boat and get someone nice and fat (in my case I would just sit on it myself) and spray the soapy water on all the seams. You should be able to detect the leak. Don't forget to flip it over and check the bottoms.Hope that helps.

Your hose might be faulty, go to your local warehouse store and buy a pool vacuum hose...that's what I did (after 4 months though not 2 weeks) and it seems to work great!

Hi C23, how did u finally resolve this issue, or did U?I see others suggested the foam inside was likely impeding the flow into the reservoir. I see 1 person took it out, added oil, then put it back in - a good idea as I think its needed to prevent oil from outflowing too fast... Hope u found a solution!

Make sure you have all the air out of it when you screw the top on. I find that helps keep it from leaking.

Mine leaks too, no matter what I do and it's brand new. It doesn't leak at the hose, but between the plastic connectors.

Let it drain completely and gofom there.if not most hobby lobbys can help. I have since upgraded to the outdoor models and am having a blast. Thanks amazon

Look in the center of the spray adjustment wheel. There should be a screw. Try tightening it and that may stop your problems with it leaking.

Adjust the position of the hose weight per the instructions. That should fix it.

I just got one and it leaked out the hole in the back. I found the problem to be the way the tank was molded. The ribs in the tank shrink more during the molding process, so the area where the round rubber seal hits the tank isn't flat, hence the leak. I bought some epoxy for plastic and put it in the grooves where the seal hits. That seems to have stopped the leak even with a full tank of water. The epoxy cost about $6 at hardware. After the epoxy started to harden, I scraped off excess and the sanded with fine sandpaper to make smooth. It took 1/2 hr to do but worth the effort. I hope this helps someone that is frustrated with the unit.

Sounds like the hose isn't securely fastened into the slot. Make sure you turn it, and it sort of 'clicks' into place. Otherwise, I would guess a defective product?
