I've reviewed water guns for years, and these are the 4 I'd recommend prioritizing this summer

Super Soaker Dunk-Fill 2-Pack | $14.99 at Amazon
While there are plenty of great water guns out there, this new design by Super Soaker won me over. As the name would suggest, you simply need to dunk them into a tub or bucket of water to fill them up almost instantly. No more waiting on the tap to slooooowly top up your blaster. As two are included in the box, it's an ideal pack for siblings. Plus, they're very easy to use so younger water warriors won't struggle.

Buy it if:
✅ You're buying for multiple kids
✅ You're buying for younger children
✅ You want something quick and easy

Don't buy it if:
❌ You'd rather get a classic blaster
❌ You want something with more capacity

UK price:
⭐ £16.99 £12.99 at Amazon

Super Soaker Hyrdo Frenzy | $19.99 at Amazon
This may look like a standard blaster, but it's actually one of the best all-rounders out there. It's got three firing modes; one is the usual water pistol experience (two jets firing straight forward), but sliding the barrel back lets its tubes go wild and shoot in all directions. It's wonderfully chaotic, and as I mentioned in my Super Soaker Hydro Frenzy review, good luck to anyone trying to avoid being hit.

Buy it if:
✅ You want a great all-rounder
✅ You embrace chaos
✅ Fun is at the top of the agenda

Don't buy it if:
❌ You want something smaller
❌ You'd rather get a traditional blaster

UK price:
⭐ £7.95 at Amazon

Super Soaker Twister | $29.99 at Amazon
Want to make sure you cause maximum H20 carnage? I'd recommend checking out this bad boy. Besides having a better capacity than expected (it's bigger than you'd think), it fires out a helix of water so pretty much anyone downrange is gonna get soaked. That's what impressed me most in my Super Soaker Twister review.

Buy it if:
✅ You live for carnage
✅ You're looking for a short-range blaster
✅ You want to minimize refill time

Don't buy it if:
❌ You're buying for smaller children
❌ You just want something that shoots normally

UK price:
⭐ £8.45 at Amazon

SpyraThree | $179 at Amazon
Shopping for yourself, teens, or fellow adults? Honestly, it does not get better than this. As I mentioned in my SpyraThree review, it's a water gun by way of sci-fi. With numerous eyebrow-raising features like multiple rates of fire (my personal go-to is 'Tournament' thanks to greater accuracy), a digital ammo display, the ability to self-fill, and impressive power, the SpyraThree is the ultimate water pistol.

Buy it if:
✅ You want the most powerful blaster
✅ You value accuracy
✅ You find most water pistols boring

Don't buy it if:
❌ You want to keep costs down
❌ You're buying for younger kids

UK price:
⭐ £154 £149 at Amazon
