Every now and then we soak it in a bleach water solution and it is has been fine. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-replaced-your-water-table#post-2754008 Fri, 30 Jun 2017 14:13:07 +0000 Ajsmommy 2754008@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@HappyBaker: omg.. this is a great hack!!! totally stealing! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-replaced-your-water-table#post-2754004 Fri, 30 Jun 2017 13:45:38 +0000 Alba4 2754004@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ours is pretty gross, but we haven't replaced it yet. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-replaced-your-water-table#post-2753998 Fri, 30 Jun 2017 13:30:32 +0000 Ajsmommy 2753998@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We are on our second one. I left it outside for two winters and this past winter it cracked. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-replaced-your-water-table#post-2753986 Fri, 30 Jun 2017 13:12:40 +0000 nana87 2753986@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@HappyBaker: omg! I've looked for a cover before with no luck so this is brilliant! Ours is on our balcony of our apt up 20 stories and gets so so gross, but there's nowhere to store it inside. Luckily lo1 likes to help clean it! We usually just use wet paper towels and dish soap. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-replaced-your-water-table#post-2753864 Fri, 30 Jun 2017 09:42:50 +0000 travellingbee 2753864@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@HappyBaker: Whoa! awesome idea! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-replaced-your-water-table#post-2753851 Fri, 30 Jun 2017 09:24:30 +0000 HappyBaker 2753851@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have a cover for ours so it isn't very dirty, and we empty it if we know we won't be playing with it for a while. Pro tip - a round fire pit cover with elastic edges fits perfectly over a water table! We have this one that was $10 -<br /> <a href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00BBAP274/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&#038;psc=1" rel="nofollow">https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00BBAP274/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&#038;psc=1</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-replaced-your-water-table#post-2753850 Fri, 30 Jun 2017 09:19:34 +0000 Mommy Finger 2753850@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We power washed ours and it's definitely not good as new but it's clean enough for what we use it for. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-replaced-your-water-table#post-2753849 Fri, 30 Jun 2017 09:09:03 +0000 snowjewelz 2753849@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Kept it in the shed over the winter and it's a little gross but I scrubbed it with baking soda/vinegar. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-replaced-your-water-table#post-2753826 Fri, 30 Jun 2017 08:29:11 +0000 Smurfette 2753826@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I told DH last weekend, we need to throw it away. It is nasty, LO1 never plays with it. I will ask someone to get it for LO2's bday and then save till next summer. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-replaced-your-water-table#post-2753823 Fri, 30 Jun 2017 08:26:49 +0000 Mamaof2 2753823@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We never did - we power washed it each summer and it looked brand new! (We also kept it inside during the winter) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-replaced-your-water-table#post-2753738 Thu, 29 Jun 2017 22:52:23 +0000 autumnlove 2753738@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We are on our second water table. We left the first one outside for 2 years before it started cracking. We put the newer one in the garage after every use so it still looks new! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-replaced-your-water-table#post-2753727 Thu, 29 Jun 2017 22:25:03 +0000 travellingbee 2753727@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our table is pretty funky but I hadn't thought about replacing until my friend said they are on their third. Now I'm like, Hmmm... maybe we need a new one... Do you have an older one or do you replace those outdoor toys? </p>
