Description
xThe Brite Star 3.5ft Blue Hippo is a self-inflating indoor/outdoor airblown inflatable holiday decoration with a UL-listed 30" lead wire transformer for quick setup and storage.
Perfect for seasonal displays, porch accents, or as a playful yard focal point, this 3.5-foot Blue Hippo from Brite Star inflates on its own and packs down flat when not in use. Built by a family-run company that has produced lighting and décor since 1932, the inflatable is rated for indoor and outdoor use and comes with a UL-listed transformer and a 30" lead wire for safe, plug-and-play operation.
How quickly does the Blue Hippo set up?
Setup is designed to be fast and straightforward: place the deflated hippo, plug in the transformer, and the internal fan inflates the figure within minutes. The lightweight design and included transformer eliminate the need for tools or air pumps.
- Self-inflating: no separate pump required
- Ready in minutes for instant display
- 30" UL-listed lead wire for safe connection
Can I use this inflatable outdoors year-round?
The Blue Hippo is rated for indoor and outdoor use, making it suitable for patios, lawns, and covered entryways. While it withstands typical seasonal outdoor conditions, storing the inflatable during extreme weather will prolong its life.

What size and accessories are included?
