is the extra slide worth the extra money

Honestly, it is. My kids are 8, 5, and 3, and they spend the majority of their time in an all-out race: climb the "wall", slide the big slide, launch themselves across the jump area, fling themselves down the small slide, race around the outside to the "wall" again. They run in circles through the thing. The big slide is absolutely worth paying the extra money for it. My kids are rough on this, and it's been set up and down almost daily for months now with no issues whatsoever.

Yes!! It makes a difference. Adds to the blow-up. Also kids have to climb up it so wears out more energy.

It is for my kid! He is a super active 3 year old boy and extra slide provides him more entertainment and opportunity to burn the energy :) Without it actually it would be a bit boring I think. They can only do so much jumping...

Dear Kendra, this is an amazing product, it worth the money... You can inflate it in 2 minutes and my kids love it, you wont regret...

the largest one you can get. i bought the small one and it is not big enough. i have a 32 ft with one slide.

I have never done a slide before so I really can't answer the question. However, this board is a bit heavier than my friend's 44 inch atom board tho. I guess if you change the wheels to wheels that you know can slide, then do so. Sorry If this doesn't help

It's nice, the one at Toys R Us is better for about the same price. My kids have had hours of fun making them.

In my opinion the additional $70 for the Gold over the Silver is worth it. Basically, what the Gold has that the Silver does not is the LCD timer, the larger work table and the charcoal bin. These are all simply convenience items but I use them all.

Carl makes interesting point about longevity of the flip. i've had the slide one for about 8 years, and never loved it bc i had to hold it up, and like others say, it sometimes flies off, crashes to the floor and cracks. i think the reason mine might be broken now could be b/c of this (or 8 years is long enough). my parents have the flip up and i like it more. if possible, i will buy the flip up. what we need is a simple retinal scan, or just a tap of my phone....

May I offer a fourth NO, not on either end. It is well made and accurate. The slide is easy to use and well made.

Yes, I ordered the slides, too. My impression is the slides were of some benefit in generating interest in the microscope, but the grandkids are much more interested in finding their own stuff to look at. Note: My input is second-hand in that it is based on feedback from my daughter who lives in GA with our grandchildren and we live in CA. The microscope and slides were a Xmas present for the oldest (8 years old), but the 6 year old is also excited about it.

Yes, it is. However, it got broke after 1st month of use(slide doesn't stop anymore)

I have a few. It's not the most heavy duty of them. The seems are not double stitched and the leather is not quite as thick as the others. I think it would take at least one good slide. I got a good deal on it ,it looks good, it's comfortable (make sure you buy one size up) and I use it on days that are above 50 degrees. If you plan on going down at 80 mph you might want something else.

If the slide is 80 or 90 series. Consult rock island or a smith + this is the safest route

The green laser does cost more. However, the green laser usually comes with the metal slide.

I bought the one for the cheaper one and it works great. I honestly think it comes down to toys and sounds. My son was just fine with his rocker with only a couple toys, he never knew the difference.

The slide is fine for what it is. It's not on drawer rollers but it doesn't stick. Afterall, it's not a $500 end table

I looked at the cheaper version and I don't see much difference except for the body model itself. This wasn't available when I bought the expensive one. Go for it. Can't go wrong. They both teach the same concept. Enjoy--the product is fun and very realistic!!

Not for the extra money required to get it. You can go to a store and compare the difference; it wasn't big enough to impress me...:)

Slide is simulated and non-functioning. It does NOT move and there is NO blowback. It is a good low-priced option with food fps, however, recently mine has had issues with the co2 leaking.
