Bestway Hydro Force Tropical Breeze Raft

This is the talk of the town when it's out there. Get it... especially if you're prone to burning in the sun (as I am). This is an all day affair on the water and everyone loves it.

Bought this for the family lake house in Minn so the family could have a destination to swim to off the dock. Inflating this took some time due to all the different air zones, but once inflated it kept the air quite well. Understanding that it was made with the typical floatie type vinyl/plastic I didn’t really think it would hold up, but it did. We would bring it on shore at night due to wind and waves but there was a night that we forgot and a major storm came through. Thinking that this floatie island sunk to the bottom or was ripped up and was hanging on someone else’s dock, we headed out in the morn to retrieve what was left. Surprisingly, the floatie was only 10’ away from where we anchored it, totally fine and still inflated with the canopy still attached on one side. Checked it out and nothing was torn or broken. Impressed! Great place to hang out with adults and kids alike, and for those who tend to burn easily, can get out from the sun via under the canopy. For the money, it’s definitely worth it. Recommend.

Purchased this for the pond. We wanted something to float on and jump off. I like that this also has a slide. Inflating is quick and easy.

amazing product

Few things to consider, it’s only $200, it’s heavy, and it’s pandoras box, once it’s out it’s not going back in. It’s a float, so not indestructible, we bought it thinking we’d get one, maybe two uses out of it. We’re up to three with no holes so fingers crossed it keeps this trend up🤞🏽. The soft cooler that come with the raft is good for garbage, that’s about it, but the shade topper is surprisingly solid. Cooler insert fits a small yeti or a large playmate. Raft can fit 20+ large adults, tested and done, but recommend for comfort and longevity of the float keep it to 10 or less. Also…… yes it’s a huge chick magnet, but don’t blame me or be surprised if you find yourself with a raft full of dudes, because Saturday is for the bois and the bois loved the raft.
