Great rocket - Here's a few tips5
Watch Video Here: http://www.amazon.com/review/RKWD8W7SLWO7T Great toy, once you learn its picky points. Most of what previous reviewers state about following the directions is correct. After close attention to details, we still couldn't get this rocket to fire the first few tries, and then finally success!!! The rocket is trigger happy. We had to launch it within a second or two of pumping it up. And the trigger had to be squeezed hard and fast by an adult. If we waited too long it wouldn't go, BUT ... all we had to do was pump on it some more and then launch it within a second or two to get it to launch. You don't have to empty everything and start over, just pump it a few more times and launch it quick. Worked every time after following this rule. The kids love it!

Frustrating Because it Doesn't Always Work2
I was impressed when putting it together because the material is decent quality (my only gripe is that the plastic ground stakes should be metal because plastic doesn't easily go into soil around here). But when we got it out in an open field to launch it, the rocket only launched 4 out of our 10 tries. It takes 140 pumps each launch and so if it doesn't go up you have to empty the pressure and pump it up again which is a 5-10 min process. Imagine doing this numerous times after failed launches with 7-8 yr old kids all standing around anticipating a launch. A number of things have to be perfect for it to launch including it standing perfectly level (there's a level included), just the right pressure (not too much or too little), fully inflated and the seams of the rocket can't line up in a certain place. Even after checking all of these multiple times we couldn't get it to launch most of the time. When it did go up it went very high and the kids were impressed. I might understand these problems if it were $19.95 but for $50 I would expect it to be more reliable. It's either over-engineered (too many safety features prevent it from launching) or the material needs to be upgraded.

Awesome!5
I wish I had this when I was a kid. My nephews (12, 9 and 7) LOVED this! Even my husband couldn't get enough. It took everyone a few practice tries before we got the hang of it, but once we did... boy oh boy... did we have a blast!
