From giant Wieners to mythical creatures ... we have all the fun inflatable toys to play with this summer.

Check out this list of inflatable floatation rafts ... for adults ... and make a splash at a pool near you.

GoFloats Wiener Dog Party Tube Inflatable Raft has all the pun-tastic fun already built in ... so get ready to be the life of the party!

The hot dog float is 4 feet wide and 27 inches tall and is rated at 500+ pounds.

"It really is THAT big. This thing is huge," noted one five star review. "Its more of an oval than a circle, which is par for the course with dachshunds, and I can practically lay down in it long ways. My body doesnt slide out of it, and it's surprisingly hard to knock someone out of it. It's got a dual type inflate/deflate spot with a large deflating hole and a small inflating hole with a plug so that when air isn't going into it, the hole closes. SUPER nice. Way better than the cheap tubes that just have a little flap thing."

"This is also made out super sturdy material, it actually feels like the side of our pool rather than a tube so I doubt it would be popped or punctured easily," they added. "We were so impressed, we went back and bought the unicorn and turtle to go with it."

This Inflatable Flamingo Pool Float w/ Lights is the ideal centerpiece for a pool party ... day or night.

Coming in at a robust 42"L x 42"W this flamingo will be the perfect lounger ... or if we're being honest ... the ideal prop for your social media bikini photo shoot.

"Wow! Absolutely gorgeous and sets off the pool and our backyard Oasis. It lights up at night and it's really cool and it's great quality, highly recommend to everyone," one five star review on Amazon gushed.

Move over Ariel ... we have a new mermaid in town! HeySplash Inflatable Pool Lounger Float is the perfect inflatable to realize your mermaid dreams!

Coming in at a whopping 70.9"L x 46.7"W ... this beast, ahem, elegant floating raft is sure to be a hit this summer.

"This floaty was the star of my Barbie themed birthday party," noted one five star Amazon review. "It’s nice and big, and most importantly, easy to inflate! Use an electric air pump and it will be ready in a couple of mins!"

Cruise into summer on your own FUNBOY Giant Inflatable Luxury Private Jet Airplane Pool Float.

Are you ready for your job to be Beach? Well, this FUNBOY Inflatable Malibu Barbie Surfboard will have you looking Ken-ough in no time!

Surf's up!

You'll be the opposite of a dark cloud with this FUNBOY Giant Rainbow Cloud Pool Float at your next pool party.

Coming in at a whopping 72"L x 48"W this thing will have your floating on cloud nine in no time!

"There are two compartments to inflate - one for the main raft and another for a rainbow," one five star Amazon review explained. "My small, cordless pump inflated the entire thing in just over 10 minutes, and that includes the time to lay it out, find the valves, and dig out the right connection for my pump; it is incredibly easy to inflate. It does need a larger nozzle to inflate; the narrow tubes will not connect. It's large enough for an adult to lay out (or two if they are cozy), and it floats well. The rainbow does provide a little shade, and it also works well for me to drape my towel for shade."

We're not clowning around ... this Giant Balloon Animal Pool Float looks like one helluva good time.

Measuring in at 58"L x 55"W this hot dog is sure to provide hours of good fun.

Take a load off with this Triumpeek Inflatable Llama Pool Float and get your (emperor's) groove on ... ahem, any Disney fans?

This Andean replica comes in at 63"L x 43"W and looks like a fun ride.

"I bought this for the grandkids to use over the summer in our pool. They got an early start and love the llama! It is something a bit different, which I like," gushed one grooving grandparent.

Enjoy your own raft and stay hydrated with this Giant Boat Pool Float with Cooler!

Measuring in at a significant 98.5"L x 47.25"W this thing will surely be able to carry all your beverages and at least one matey!

"Hey guys this is a great buy! The boat is sturdy and comfortable and it looks cool floating in my pool! Buy it!" wrote one satisfied Amazon customer.

Find out for yourself, once and for all, if Rose really could have fit Jack on that floating door with this Original Titanic Movie Pool Float.

This easy cook on-the-go Blackstone 1814 Stainless Steel Propane Flat Top Griddle has proven to be a favorite for both avid and casual grillers.

One verified Amazon purchaser noted in their 5 star review: "So, I bought this grill last year for camping. After using it this long I can truly say its been the best choice I could have made. I love it. If you season it well before using, this grill will give you the best results. It has actually took the place of our old gas grill at home as well. Its easy to clean and it's well made."

While another wrote: "I love this appliance - it cooks everything perfectly and is so easy to use and clean up afterwards as there's not a lot of splatter when the lid is down. It's built to go to tail-gater parties or picnics with the family or any other outting that involves people and food. It's only 17" square but it holds a lot of food so don't worry about extra people showing up when they smell what you are cooking!!"

This BBQ Grill Utensils Set for Camping/Backyard basically has all your grilling essentials included ... sans actual grill and fuel (oh and the meat).

One satisfied customer wrote: "Lots of accessories! For $35, plus any discounts, it is worth the money for anyone getting or gifting their first (matching) accessory set."

While another 5 star reviewer noted: "I was skeptical of this product due to the low price, but it far exceed my expectations."

This Grill Basket, Barbecue BBQ Grilling Basket set really ups your game with not only the grill basket but a basting brush, grilling gloves, and even a portable case for a BBQ away from home.

One five star reviewer gushed: "We have used this for salmon, and veggies! It worked perfectly. The basket stayed closed while turning and is easy to wash. The pouch it comes in makes it easy to store when not in use! I would highly recommend!"

This one's a heavyweight ... you'll have mouth watering burgers this summer thanks to the Cuisinart Smashed Burger Press, Cast Iron ... coming in at 6.5" and a whopping full 16 oz making it the perfect tool for a backyard barbecue.

"Great value for the money!" wrote one 5 star review. "Has a bit of weight to it which is perfect for smash burgers! Ball up the meat, throw it on the griddle, place a piece of parchment paper over it and smash away. I like to press and hold it for a 10 count. Would definitely buy it again!"

This Wireless Meat Thermometer is a must if you want healthy and delicious food.

As one five star reviewer put it: "The temperature accuracy of this thermometer is top-notch. It never fails to pick the correct temperature, allowing me to cook my dishes to perfection every time. The reliable readings that it provides give me the confidence that I’m on the right track with my cooking. I also appreciate the speed at which this thermometer operates. It quickly displays the temperature, saving me valuable time in the kitchen and ensuring that I can keep track of my cooking progress efficiently. The value for the money that this thermometer offers is unmatched. Considering the quality and performance it delivers, the price is reasonable, and well worth investment."

This Carhartt Men's Firm Duck Apron tells hungry eaters you're serious about grilling.

One satisfied meat-chopper wrote: "Work in a butcher shop, I own two of them, very durable material, at first a is a little stiff but I am sure after a few washes it will be a little more [pliable], I think is designed for a carpenter because of the many packets."

While another couldn't help but roast their boyfriend (and not the meat) when they wrote: "Boyfriend constantly got oils spattered on his clothes while cooking and now that doesn’t happen (when he wears it)."

No trips to the ER this summer while wearing these Kingsford Extreme Heat BBQ Grill Gloves.

As one five star reviewer wrote: "These Kingford Grilling gloves are nice for BBQ grilling. I purchased a pair of gloves on sale for $15. It feels like you have big gloves on, but still have good dexterity. First, I tried them on an open fire over the kitchen stove for a few seconds and I did not feel any heat. Then we tried them on our Weber grill and they worked great. I used them to move the charcoal around after pouring out the charcoal. It started to feel it warm after about 10-15 seconds of moving around the charcoal. I use them to take off the steel grill when the charcoals at full blast, did not feel much heat either. I used them to flip the stainless steel skewers with no problems. So they give plenty of heat protection when working around the grill."

But we don't suggest you do any of the above and tempt fate ... better to just use tongs like a normal person while wearing the gloves.

This KINGSFORD Heavy Duty Deluxe Charcoal Chimney Starter will save you valuable time starting your grill.

"As an avid backyard barbecuer, I've tried my fair share of charcoal chimney starters, and I can confidently say that the KINGSFORD Heavy Duty Deluxe Charcoal Chimney Starter is a game-changer in the world of grilling. From its durable construction to its efficient performance, this chimney starter has earned a permanent spot in my barbecue arsenal," wrote one satisfied griller.

While another said: "I followed the instructions and it worked like a charm. Quick and easy to use. No fanning of flame no little pieces of burning paper flying around."

If you're serious about brisket, or really just barbecue, you gotta have butcher paper ... this Pink Butcher Paper Roll more than does the job.

"It has truly elevated my smoking game to new heights," gushed one barbecue enthusiast. "This food-grade peach wrapping paper offers exceptional quality and versatility, making it a must-have for barbecue enthusiasts and pitmasters alike."

While another simply said: "Wrap briskets well. doesn't tear easily".
