A day on a giant pool float is an amazing way to spend your lazy Sundays.

Watermelon is an ideal summer fruit, and this float will definitely have you wishing you had the refreshing and juicy food with you while lounging. The float has a diameter of 60 inches, giving you the freedom to comfortably move around without instantly falling in. This [giant pool accessory](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bote-hangout-15) is perfect for soaking up sun rays, and is also extremely comfortable!

Although the giant pool float is large, it's very easy to inflate. Considering the product looks like a delicious [watermelon](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/watermelon-glow-dew), there's a chance you'll become slightly peckish after blowing it up. Just make sure you don't attempt to eat the inflatable!
