Oodles of Noodles Deluxe Foam Pool Noodles, 6 Pack, 48 in
Dense, certified foam noodles at a low price that wear faster in strong sun.
We bought SLOOSH Foam Pool Noodles, Multicolor, 6 Pack, 48 inch. It's no longer documented anywhere, so this page reviews the closest well-covered match. It is a 6 pack of 48 inch foam noodles from a known noodle maker with a product page and editorial coverage.
The short version
- Families and kids age 5 and up playing in the pool
- Pool parties and camps that need several noodles
- Crafters and DIY projects that need foam tubes
- The noodles will sit in direct sun all season
- Adults need a thick noodle for floating or water exercise
- You want a swim aid for a weak swimmer; the maker says it is not a lifesaving device
What owners like
- Dense foam that holds its shape better than bargain noodles
- Light and easy to carry, toss and store
- Useful beyond the pool for crafts and padding
Common complaints
- Plain foam is not UV resistant and degrades in the sun
- Thin diameter gives less support for adults than jumbo noodles
- Less durable than vinyl dipped noodles

What it does
A pack of six dense, hollow core foam pool noodles about 48 inches long; reviewed here in place of the SLOOSH multicolor 6 pack 48 inch noodles it resembles.
- Foam the maker says is denser and stiffer than standard noodles
- Hollow core keeps them light and easy to bend
- Maker says they are made in North America with no harmful chemicals
- Also used for crafts, DIY padding and boat bumpers
- Sold in several color packs
A solid pick for families and pool parties that want plain foam noodles from a maker that publishes its toy safety certification. The trade-off is that bare foam is not UV resistant, so these wear faster in the sun than vinyl coated noodles, and the slim 2.5 inch size floats less than jumbo styles.
