Review on 🏴 Little Tikes Pirate Anchors Away by Scot Hughes

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great table but the drain plug is terrible.

This water table is great. I read the reviews and bought a fire pit cover that fits just right but works great (https://www.amazon.com/Classic-Accessories-58992-EC-Terrazzo-Cover/dp/B00BBAP274/ref=pd_bxgy_21_img_2?ie= UTF8&psc =1&refRID=ETA3WMW2D7HHNKP3MQJV) I had several issues with the product - one leg did not have the correct plastic last. The extra plastic was still attached and the space had to be lined up perfectly so it could be inserted and screwed onto the table. There's nothing that a hammer and flathead screwdriver can't take down with a few hits. After I got up and took the first step, putting the legs back in place and then screwing them to the table, I found that if the screws weren't attached that way, they would come out the sides of the Bootes would come out where children could get hurt. The annoying thing is that you have to use six inch screws with no screw holes to align them. If you're wrong (if you put it diagonally), the screw will go through the plastic of the boat. It's not where the water is held, so it doesn't leak, it just looks like shit with a little hole in it. Problem #2: The drain plug sucks. After refilling water my husband thought I was crazy when I told him to take our almost two year old outside to play with the table which was now dry. He found the fork wouldn't hold up when the mat got wet outside and we figured out the problem. My son has been playing with it but I was disappointed that I put this table together for my son's birthday and the part that was supposed to work didn't work. I turned it over and it holds water but the plug is half in/half out and opposite to the directions or vice versa so it actually holds water. I see someone else has a fork at the hardware store so I'll try that method or get in touch with Little Tikes shortly. Until then, I refuse to touch the fork.

Pros
  • Outdoor fun pirate ship water table with rotating elements
Cons
  • You could choose a newer model
