Europe’s largest playground’s best investment ever

Europe’s largest playground Linnaeushof offers over 350 playsets and attractions. In their strenuous search for a unique and new playset, Linnaeushof eventually stumbled upon the Yalp Sona Interactive dance and play arch. Initially, Linnaeushof felt a little uncertain about the price, and they wondered what the investment would yield. Soon enough, however, these uncertainties turned out to be completely unfounded. As you’ll read below, the park has become extremely enthusiastic about the Sona, and even states it to be their best investment ever.

Cok Milatz, manager at Linnaeushof, reveals: “Back in 2009 we visited a playground in Rotterdam, where the Sona had just been installed. Aunt Lenie, a volunteer there, was doubtful and revealed that she was a bit skeptical towards the Sona and that she would have to see how the Sona would prove itself to be valuable. With ‘Aunt Lenie’s’ opinion in mind, we postponed the purchase. But after six months, ‘Aunt Lenie’ gave us a call herself and sounded delighted! She told us the Sona had turned out to be an enormous success. It even turned out to be their most used playset. We didn’t know it at the time, but our experiences would soon match theirs. At that point, we decided to purchase the Sona, and we have never looked back.”

 

“The Sona has honestly been our best investment yet, and I think every recreation facility should consider buying one.”

What’s so great about the Sona?

Cok continues: “This is all just my opinion as an entrepreneur. But the fact that the Sona has been our best investment yet is based on the following: Firstly, it an eye-catcher. Which makes everyone curious about what it could be. Secondly, the Sona is occupied for almost the entire year here. The statistics confirm this; in the past month, the Sona has been used for more than 171 hours – which equals almost six consecutive hours a day. What’s also great is that the Sona barely needs maintenance and is built to withstand any possible vandalism. The technical performance of the Sona has proven to be 100% flawless. And last but not least: New games come out all of the time, which keeps it fresh, this is very important for us because this means the play value remains over time.”
