Does anyone know of a good indoor inflatable bouncer for preschoolers/older? (Bonus if toddlers can play in it too.)

It needs to be small when inflated (shove a coffee table out of the way and play in the living room size), compact when uninflated (for easy storage) and set up and take down easily. Anyone know one? I'm thinking this might be fun for the boys on boring days.

ETA - does anyone have this one? The price sure is nice http://www.littletikes.com/toys/carnival-castle-playcenter.aspx?Ne=1&N=26+117&Ns=Sales+Price%7c0&Nsi=5

My friend had that one (or very similar) and it's very small. I'd say only one child, probably a toddler can fit in it.

We have this one: http://www.amazon.com/85-76-Jump-o-Lene-Castle-Bouncer/dp/B000096R6U/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&s=toys-and-games&qid=1219699850&sr=1-2

and DS loves it. I can't remember though how long it took to inflate. We have it up permanently in the basement. We call it a ball pit rather than a bounce house since although it is like a bounce house, it's not as bouncy--IYKWIM?

Ugh. We had this one but it is pretty big. I think 7' round if I remember correctly. DS1 LOVES jumping so we got him this for Xmas. Inflated it the night before and it lasted 28 minutes before popping a whole. No kidding--I looked at the clock since I was so annoyed. We found it and fixed it but over the next few months we got probably four more holes. It was all in the yellow wall part. It is really tall too. I'd look for a different one.
