Sure! Here's a general Amazon review for a boat tube. If you have a specific model or brand in mind, I can This boat tube has been a total hit with my family and friends! It inflates quickly, hooks up easily, and is super sturdy even at higher speeds. We’ve had a blast using it over the summer — it handles turns, bumps, and waves like a champ. The material feels thick and durable, and the handles are well-placed and comfortable to grip (even for the kids). We’ve had multiple riders on it with no problem, and it still looks almost brand new after several weekends on the water. If you're looking for a fun, high-quality tube for the lake or river, this one’s definitely worth it. Highly recommend!

Kids love this!!!!! It’s safe, supportive and fun. It looks like it will last for years. We got one because the neighbors have them. Prefect choice on the lake.

We have had this towable for three years and The Super Mabel was a great purchase! It has been very durable and the kids have figured out multiple ways to use it for fun. From just an air mattress to relax and grab some sun to being a fun place to play and rough-house, it has been a great addition to our dock. Then, of course there is the excitement of towing it behind the boat. It is a tough toy and up for hours of laughter and screams of delight. It is a big towable (easily carries three) and because it is tough, it is also a bit on the heavy side. That is the only “negative” I can come up with.

We loved this tube! Our grandkids from age 2 to 13 plus their parents enjoyed tubing behind the boat on it and later, tying it to the dock and having a fun float to jump on and off of. Parents enjoyed lounging on it as well.

I purchased this product in May of 2021. I know that sounds like a long time ago but the first year we had it the bladder deformed and we could not sit on it. This was, in fact replaced as would be expected. The following year, 2022, when we took it out of storage, all of the grip handles showed significant signs of deterioration. Then when taking it out of storage in 2023, it was clear that the deterioration should not be occurring at the rate it had been (see picture). I contacted Airhead and this is the response. "Usually for leaving it for like even 10 minutes in the sun could be the issue of this, you ha to take it out once you don’t want to use it or don’t leave it in the water for to long when its not used, those are our principal recommendations". The syntax and spelling leads me to believe this is not a response from a US citizen. Airhead did offer a small discount on a future purchase. In any case, I could not believe a response that a product meant to be used outdoors for long periods of time should not be out more than 10 minutes. At any rate it has continued to get worse. Now this year, the back will not inflate properly. I have given up! All in all, this has been a terrible product. I do not recommend it.

Don't submarine it! That's what happens if people lean forward when you take off and it tries to go underwater.... Will make tremendous stress on the seams! Also 4 small children ok but no More than 3 adults "even though there's room for 4" or you will rip the stitching and only get one season. I've had to return mine twice for ripped seams! Treat it nice and it will last. Lots of fun! Super hard to flip so can get lots of air without Wipeouts! Two adults is fine, 3 is pushing it unless they are light. As long as you are skilled at pulling you can push the limits... no sudden jerks from slack in the rope or you will whiplash and/or tear the mable. These bigger rafts have tremendous weight and so slack rope jerks are not recommended. Be careful about putting two big people on the edges and a little guy in the middle, the middle guy might get squahed or elbowed in the head or eye!... but two big people on the ends does tend to make it more stable. Another caution is "pay attention" when pulling folks out of the water and make sure they don't lean forward so as to submarine the mable. That will exponentially increase the pull and you will rip the seams. One more safeguard, if you want it to last for years, don't store it in the sun..... short periods are ok but don't leave it on the dock all summer or the handles will rot off......prolonged exposure to sun is hard even on ski ropes! Otherwise, its great fun to be out there with others at the same time either relaxing on a river cruise or ripping up the waves... you can get some good air off other boats if your timing and speed is correct! After owning two of these I"m contemplating another brand..... I've noticed the item weight on this is only 20 lbs. When compared with RAVE Sports 02645 #EPIC 3-Rider the item weight is a whopping 37 lbs! In my book that tells you a lot about quality, thickness, strength of all parts concerned, especially since both are 3 person riders. The RAVE Sports 02645 #EPIC 3-Rider indicates a rider weight rating of 510 lbs.... The super mabel is rated the same... interesting....
