5.0 out of 5 stars Great for beginning swimmers who just need a little help staying afloat, August 30, 2010

I bought this back float for my 3-year-old son (it was the same kind that was used in his swimming lessons he took at our neighborhood pool). It's great for him because, unlike arm floats, he is able to practice paddling his arms in a style that is closer to a real swim stroke. Also it helps him stay afloat, but he is able to submerge himself a little to practice puttting his face and body underwater. I think it offers the perfect balance of asissted buyouancy for beginning swimmers who are trying to do more than just stay afloat, but still need a little extra support.

I got these bubbles for my daughters because they are the same type they use at the YMCA for their swim lessons. There are 4 pieces of foam on the bubbles so you can take one off at a time as they get used to swimming. Safer than using arm floaties too!

1.0 out of 5 stars Foam Broke!, June 30, 2009

This review is from: Adjustable Back Float for Swim Instruction (Misc.)

I was very excited about this bubble because the pads could come off as my child progressed in swimming. Unfortunately, we've only had this item for three weeks and had only been worn about 6 times when the first piece of foam fell off. The pieces broke off where the strap is in the back and it fell off. We ended up attaching that piece to the back and it hung on, but then the new front piece broke off, too. So all in all, two pieces have completely come apart. My child has only been swimming, jumping off the side, and jumping off of a small diving board which are typical things I feel a bubble should be able to withstand. I'm following the original advice I received and going to our local YMCA to purchase one instead.
