it's cute and the size is good, but there are a couple of problems. first off, there is no weight in the base. most inflatable have bean bags or something, but not this. there are only 4 loops total, 2 on each side, for anchoring the non-weighted base, and 2 loops, one on each side, to tie with ropes, so it is pretty unstable. it can't inflate itself without being held up, and it blows over so easily that it spends most of the time folded in half. if the arch was thicker, it might stay upright better, but without being able to properly stake/tie it down and no weight, this is really a disappointment.
