We initially saw these life vests when visiting a water park. My 4 year old tried on the vest and loved it - even better she kept it on without any prodding. The outside covering of the vest is slick and dries quickly - it doesn't get soiled or stinky like other vests. The material is fairly pliable and my daughter says it is comfortable - she keeps it on for extended periods (2+ hours) without complaint. The buckles are pretty easy to fasten and seem reasonably sturdy and pinchless. My daughter is 37 lbs and 42 inches and the x-small fits her very well - although we have the straps pulled in almost the max amount. Overall we really like this product and would definitely buy it again.

This is absolutely the best life jacket ever! My 4 year old can wear it for hours (literally- I can't get her out of the water!) without ever even asking to take it off. We've tried a few other jackets but she will only leave them on for 15-30 minutes tops. And it works extremely well. I highly recommend it.

We used these life jackets last summer and have bought more for this coming summer for our 4 kids ages 8,6,5 and 3. There is a different size that fits perfectly for all the ages. No sore marks on their sides from the straps, even after hours in not only the pool but also getting thrown around by waves at the beach, which was a big problem with almost all of the other jackets we've had in the past. They hold up great, we're only buying more because my son has outgrown last years. I recomend them to all friends and family.

These Super Soft swim vests are truly awesome. I'd tried other swim vests that were all supposedly very good, but I never felt truly comfortable with my young children in any of them. My kids STILL sort of sank while wearing them.

We first saw the Super Soft vests at a water park, and I was very impressed with them. My kids--who did not know how to swim at the time--were able to stay afloat in the water effortlessly. They were much more comfortable in the water, wearing these vests, because they just made it seem like you were floating naturally--without the aid of a vest. The vests, while made of a very soft foam, might be a little stiff when brand new, but with use, they definitely soften up. They fit the body well, and each size is adjustable with straps, so you can get the fit perfect. And these vests did their job so well, that after almost 2 years of using them in the water, my kids have become so comfortable in water, that they were actually able to learn to swim WITHOUT them this summer.

I like this vest so well, that I have even bought them for my husband and myself. They are great in Lazy Rivers--no need for an inner tube; just put this vest on, and you will float. And they're also perfect for wave pools--especially if you're not a super strong swimmer.

Personally, I don't think you could go wrong with a Super Soft.

This vest is wonderfull, it gave my three year old freedom in the pool. The product is very comfortable, keeps his head way above the water.The only drow back is the strap between his legs shifts to far to one side and rubs his leg. He does not complain about pain but it looks uncomfortable.

I was always a nervous wreck when my kids were in the pool. Now that we have this jacket for my 3-year old I can rest easier. He can move freely and I think it's given him confidence as he happily puts it on and jumps right into the pool! We also like that it comes in so many colors.

Our young granddaughter,(33 lbs) was hesitant to wear any type of swim aid until our trip to Hershey Park where it was mandatory that she wear a vest just like this one in order to get into the wave pool. She LOVED it and right then I decided to purchase one. The vest is very soft and doesn't ride up like many I've seen. She is very confident and is trying new things and it has made us feel more relaxed around the pool as well.

This is an excellent life Jacket. My son has been using for about 2 years and he feels so safe in it. He just loves his yellow coat. He has never tipped forward getting a mouthfull of water.

For the actual swim vest I would actually give it 5 stars but I ordered two from a company on Amazon and one came with a defective buckle, so I had to send it back (paying shipping) and wait for the new one to come. The store was good about trading it for a non-defective one, but it would have been nicer if they had checked it before sending it out. My two girls ages 6 and 8 love these lifejackets, they've gone through several sizes. The x-small and small both have a strap that goes between their legs to add as an extra safety precaution. The medium and on up don't have the extra strap. We have a boat and go on the lake with these lifejackets and believe me, I've tried all the cheap ones and they're not worth it. I do also like some neoprene material lifejackets as well, so for me, it's between these or a neoprene type lifejacket but these are so nice because they repel the water completely so your child doesn't get cold.

I now have 3 of these for all three children. Our 2 year old does great and does not mind to wear it. Have had two for over 1 year and still look great, soft and no signs of wear. strongly recommend for any child.
First experience was in Orlando, FL at the Nickelodeon Hotel and this was the only device allowed and provided by the hotel. Our four and two year old loved them and bought some for our personal use in our own pool
