5.0 out of 5 stars This is not a Toy... June 21, 2009

I don't know why Amazon catagorizes this lounger as a toy for this review, but it's nothing like the cheap $[...] flat floats that you find in discount stores like [...]. I've had mine for a few weeks and absolutely love it! Very comfortable and the cup holders are a real plus, fill two tumblers and float out to the middle of the pool without needing to go inside for a refill so soon. The handles also are a help when bringing it out of the water. There has been one negative which I must mention. So far I've had to add a bit of air twice to keep it as firm as I like it. I just like having it fully inflated each time that I use it (several times a week), so I am a little fussy, probably more so than most people. By far its the best float that I've used.
Update 10/16/2009-After a full season of using this float, I can say that it loses very little air if the plug is quite secure after inflating.

4.0 out of 5 stars Pretty good pool float June 15, 2008

I used this float all summer last year. It held up well and it's holding air well this year too. When fully inflated, it keeps you truly up and out of the water, so it was really nice to use when the water in the pool hadn't yet warmed up to my preferred temperature. This also means that when it's hot, you're not going to be cooled off as much as if you used a mesh-type float. And, since it's vinyl, you will stick to the surface, especially if it's hot. Very comfortable, though, and great to float around with a cool drink and read!

3.0 out of 5 stars Good design but not durable in use May 10, 2011

By G. Carter

Durability: 2.0 out of 5 stars    Fun: 4.0 out of 5 stars   

We bought two of the Intex floating lounge chairs for our pool a few months ago. They are comfortable, generously proportioned and extremely stable. The dual cup holders are convenient, but a bit small for a drink can with a cozy... a drink can alone fits fine. I love the handles, too. My wife and I tied our chairs together with a bungee cord so we could float and talk and talk and talk....
My only complaint is that the colors faded quite rapidly, and they both failed after about four months of exposure to pool chemicals and the south Florida sun. The main part of both chairs are fine, but the arms separated from the chair body at the two attachment points (directly under the handles), causing the arms to deflate. I just finished cutting the arms off, so what we have now are somewhat unstable, but still usable, floats.
The Intex floating lounge chair might work fine in a place where the sun is not so direct, or where it is removed from the water and put in the shade when not in use.

Great buy. Big, comfortable and tough. My grandson floated down a section of the Guadalupe River through some rapids and over lots of rough rocks. The float made it like a champ. I would recomment anyone buy this.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not So Durable November 3, 2011

By Yeager47

The lounge chair has two sections, the main section is the chair from head to toe, and the other is the arm rests which is shaped like a "U" wrapping around the back of the chair giving it more stability. The design is good in as much as it keeps the "lounger" floating evenly above the water - in fact, you can be fully dressed and never get wet because of how well you are propped up. I found this to be not to my taste because I like having some contact with the water, otherwise why even be in a pool!

But the problem with the chair is its lack of durability. Without any known reason, after a few usages we suddenly found the arm rests section deflated. We discovered that the seam that connects it to the main body of the chair had started to come apart. There is no way to patch it due to its design, so the whole thing had to be trashed.

Maybe we just got a defective one or something, but the big issue is that it fell apart for no reason. No one was jumping on it or being rough with it in any way. I don't see any of these holding up under the normal kid torcher test that things like this usually go through!

Pay a little more for better quality.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not the same Intex product from 2011 May 5, 2013

By Renee F. Slater

Amazon Verified Purchase

We purchased two of these back in 2011 . We loved the original version , which was much bigger , and kept you completely out of the water . In addition the older model did not recline , your head stayed fairly upright so you could read a book etc . So , how disappointed we were when we realized the Intex 2012-13 version has been completely changed . Instead of 2 chambers for air there are three , the width of the lounge is 1/3 less , the arms have a wide space in between lounge and arms which means unless you are truly interested in gettin totally wet , well you get the picture . My head goes all the way back , ths lounge is for tanning only .
What bothers e is that the picture and description describe the older much bigger version.

I installed a much larger pool and the inner tube I had wasn't going to cut it in a pool as large as my new one - so I purchased this lounger. It is being touted as a toy but I think it is the best pool lounger I have ever had. It has held up really well and shows no sign of sun fade. I spend plenty of time floating around, catching a tan and all the while a drink at my elbow. The cup holders were definitely a great idea for this lounger. For the price and the quality it is well worth it. I went from store to store looking at less impressive loungers and settled on this one. Thanks Intex.....I love your products.
