Stumbled upon this beauty at my local Kmart (Parkmore) another 3 left. Really good price, been looking at ones upward of $200 as of late. The quality and build of this is very good for the price. Great for Summer coming around the corner.
(First post on Ozbargain :))
why is that funny?
Is it made of out stuff that will not rust?
I know someone who bought one of these. Top ripped off in the wind and the frame rusted out in about 12 months. Nice for a one off event but dont expect it to last too long.
is it cheap because it won't stand upright ?
No noticeable lean on a solid floor. I'd imagine this thing would be quite solid once mounted into grass.
these things are usually marketed as "temporary" ie your supposed to put them up and take them down each time you use them and not leave them out in the weather… one my mate got got wrecked in not time, but couldnt do anything about it because they are not supposed to be permenent structures.
yeah… definitely don't tie your kids to them on windy days…
What wisc said. I was happy with mine until a windy day flat-out snapped several of the metal columns. :(
Got the same or a very similar one from BigW b4, collapsed (metal bended!) on a windy days after 4 months of use.
Cyclone Yasi: was no-one left untouched?
too soon?
it is selling on this price for about one year already in my local kmart
Same here - this price for at least the past 3 months at my local
Just been to parkmore Kmart but unfortunately bit bigger for my backyard.They still have few in stock but seems to be normal $69 price as displayed on shelve.
Great price, any stores in NSW that might have some left?
haha, that's actually a pretty good deal.
I'd snap that up!
