Customer Reviews

It's OK. There are others that are better for less.
The Cyclone is OK. You should know that I purchased a Shark at Toy'R'Us for[..]and it is superior. It shoots farther. The Cyclone's capacity is more, but more is relative. The Shark has good capacity and it shoots a good 30 feet plus. The Cyclone shoots 25 plus.

Poor design and poor quality
Nearly everything about this water gun was disappointing for me. First, the description of it being pressurized misled me. I was assuming it would require several pumps to build up pressure like a super soaker. However, this gun releases water anytime you use the pump. I could have figured that out since the pictures don't show a trigger, but a better description would have helped too. Also, the "turbo" factor is a wasteful design. The plastic, spiral, water-bottle like, insert in the middle of the gun doesn't even fill with water, which seriously detracts from the gun's capacity. The only part of it that fills with wateris a little tube that runs around the outside of the plastic resevoir to create the "turbo" factor which is a gimick. It does shoot water a good distance with good force. The biggest complaint from me is the constant leaking from all areas of the gun. Not only does it leak from the cap if you put it down, but it also drips out of the front of the barrel. After about 10 pumps it began leaking constantly from the seam that runs down the entire bottom of the gun. It is not a quality product. If I were just using it in a pool where it didn't matter if it leaked, it would be different. However, not being able to leave a water gun filled with water because it leaks everywhere is silly. It leaks constantly. That wasn't even after hard use. I tested it by firing it several times into the bathtub and it began leaking. Waste of money. On the plus size, it is huge and heavy. So if you need a blunt object to fight off wild dogs and while getting leaked on, this is your water gun.

Fun toy
It feels safe to use and fun to play with. The water tank has great capacity. My daughter has fun with it.
