It was very tough getting them back but in and it took awhile, but finally got the job done.If i remember there is hollow spot where I could stick my thumb and push the plug in.

i didn't have that problem at all !!!the only suggestion i have is to make sure the plugs are pushed all the way in !!!good luck.

I had the same problem and have not found a good solution yet. I even tried using a knife to narrow the 3.5 mm plug with no luck. This is a big drawback to the Maxboost. Please let me know if you find a good solution.

I have tried three different brands, really frustrated. I wound up just feeding in those tubs and getting new ones for water. sorry not to be of more help. I siliconed around plugs, tried plumbers tape too but neither held

I have not had this problem. It is firm, but when you squeeze the side "clips" tightly, it comes out fine on mine. I would make sure that both the plug & socket are clean, and then perhaps try a very light coat of lubricant that is safe for plastics (silicone or similar) on the exterior of the plug only, on the sides where it contacts the socket. That should help. You could try to contact WORX and see what they recommend. And if little adjustments that you try don't work, then it is obviously defective and should be replaced- it was meant to come in and out without major effort.

I had the same issue and it took a while to figure it out. Since we use it rarely we don't recall how we finally did it. If I recall correctly, the pump mechanism really does not let the air out. I think we took the mechanism off the mattress. You'll have to experiment with it.

The back of the unit has a 3 prong plug that goes into the top plug of the outlet. There is a long screw in the center that goes into the screw hole that the outlet cover plate normally goes to. Then, there is a plastic prong that fits into the bottom part of the prong plug to help stabilize it. I'll try to attach a picture to the images at the side of the product on the Amazon site

Yes. If plugs are properly closed, the pool stays inflated. This summer will be my second summer using this pool and never has it deflated on us. We typically have around 2-4 kids playing inside at once.

My husband figured it out. You insert the bigger plug in first and once it is in insert the smaller one. Then push till you hear a click.It took him all of 10 seconds to put the tail on.Hope this helps.

These are NEARLY impossible to inflate. But if you pinch the valves on one side, either with VERY strong fingers or pliers, you can make enough of a slit to blow air in. And it will stay inflated. NOT easily done, though! It's a "Confidence-building system" designed to build confidence for anyone strong and patient enough to inflate iT!

You just blow into it and replace plug. Do not fully inflate the pillow as therein lies it's magic

So sorry, I bought this plug because I have a floor outlet and needed something that laid flat and the plugs could go into the sides so that they didn't stick up from the outlet. However I did check it and it would have to be plugged into the top outlet.

Make sure you remove the plug that came with the deflated ball. Then, the pump should have 2 valves on it - one of them should easily fit into the ball and fit over the tube so you can pump it up. After pumping, remove the valve and replace the plug back into the ball.

Had the same problem.Also the socket would not hold the plug while pulling it out of deep well.JUNK.

make sure all seals are tight and the hose is connected properly to pump and fill tip. worse comes to worse use a bike pump or air mattress pump. be careful with the last idea. have some one hold a yard stick next to bosu while inflating and when good height have pin ready to go in as you pull hose

You should have a plug with it; all three of the ones I bought had plugs. No wonder it won't hold air! I just used a hand air pump.

I experienced the same issue, to solve it, first; I squeezed the tab with a pair of pliers, (flexing it a bit to loosen it up), then, while inserting the plug, I angled the tab into the hole on the frame (as much as possible anyways), then once its was all lined up, I just gave it a good sack down on my work bench and voila! Success! Although it seemed like it was hard and maybe even a bit brittle, I really doubt it will break.

You have to press down in the white area of the inflating tube. This can be done using the cap. Just the cap tab inside and push down.
