This review is from: Aqua Leisure Aqua Leisure Swim School Foam Arm Bands (Toy)

I bought these for my 4 1/2 year old because he doesn't like to wear the water rings anymore and I thought they would help him learn to swim on his own. I pulled them out of the package to try them on him when we got home and they were HUGE. They fit on my arm comfortably. I am 5 '3 125 lbs and my arms are not that big around, I don't even think these would fit my 11 yr old brother. There is no way he will be able to wear these when he is six which is the max age limit for them. If your child is obese then they will probably fit! If they only had 3 panels and not 4 they might fit him. I am so disguted!!

We got these for our 4.5 yr old twins. They were too big for their arms and not bouyant enough to support either 40lb boy.
Positively Dangerous!

I bought these for my 3 year old son, and they are absolutely useless. Yes, they are way too big, but I was able to secure them tightly around my sons arms, only to discover that they do not keep him afloat AT ALL. I do not live in the US currently, therefore I'm not able to attempt returning them to the store I purchased them from so I called the company (Aqua Leisure) directly to see what my options were, for returning the product, only to find out that this product according to their description (read by a customer service rep) is not meant to be a 'flotation device'at all. It's a device to 'help your child learn to swim'. The adult is suppose to support the child while they are learning to swim. I told the Rep this makes no sense at all. What exactly is the product doing if I have to fully support my child while he is wearing these, and can't let him go, because he won't float? They said they would be able to replace them if there was a defect. Seriously, isn't the design defective?
