Reviews
«Lobo BagsCrash Bar Inflatables. Arrived on time. Excellent product. It claims to hold air for 6 hours, but I'd say that's incorrect. Inflated in the afternoon, used the next day, so still perfectly inflated after 24 hours. I'd say it's even better. Assembly is quick and easy. I recommend purchasing it. — R.T.
