5.0 out of 5 stars
Better than goggles, November 8, 2001
By A Customer
= Durability:5.0 out of 5 stars = Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars = Educational:5.0 out of 5 stars
Highly recommended. I bought these for my 5 year old son who was afraid of getting his eyes wet and going under water. They cost a little bit more than the regular goggles, but well worth it. They don't fog up, water never gets in them like regular goggles. The strap is so easy to adjust. I love them! He can put them on himself with not problem and they are very durable. Towards the mid summer he got the confidence to swim under water with them on and by the end of the summer was going under with out them.

4.0 out of 5 stars
May not fit toddlers or young children, May 9, 2011
I am giving these four stars because aside from one issue, they are very well designed. I like the wider visibility these have - it's easier for kids to get used to than the limited visibility of separate goggles. The mechanisms for adjusting the straps work extremely well and the whole goggle frame is quite flexible, which should make it comfortable to wear.
However, the one issue I have with them is the way they're cut around the nose. The only way they will seal is if the child has a high bridge to their nose - which most toddlers and many young children do not. When I put them on my 3 year old, there was a large gap between her nose and the gasket, no matter how tight the goggle strap was. They also did not seal on a 4 and 5 year old that I tried them on. Interestingly, they do fit me quite well, and if I hadn't ordered the pink ones I would wear them - I'm a guy and slightly embarrassed to wear bright pink swim goggles.
So they will probably work well for older children or those with a high bridge, but I would not recommend them if your child has a low bridge/dipped nose.

2.0 out of 5 stars
Started leaking after a few weeks, August 13, 2009
This review is from: Aqua Sphere Seal Kid Swim Goggle (Sports)
I purchased two of these goggles for my swimming toddlers after reading the rave reviews about fit. For the first couple of weeks they were great and I was a big fan. I rinsed them after every use and stored them in the original packaging. However, after about 2-3 weeks of use both of them started leaking and I can't seem to figure out why - other than the gasket has already lost its shape and cannot form a complete seal anymore. Very disappointing. Both of my kids ask to use their old individual eye goggles (that they hated before) after about 15 minutes of having to empty water out of these Aqua Spheres each time they go under. Wouldn't recommend for 3 or 4 year olds.
