STEARNS Infant Hydroprene: Safe & Comfortable Life Jacket for Babies Review

Comfortable fit, grandson loves boating, let's put them on without fuss. Love that it zips at the back, I've seen the ones that zip at the front and heard they are uncomfortable.

This baby lifejacket suits us perfectly! It fit my 12-pound, 12-week-old baby perfectly (with adjustable straps and room to grow) and surprisingly he didn't seem to mind being buckled in. We only used it for swimming and not (yet) for boating.

Great product! Worked great for my 8 month old. The only downside is that it is very difficult to get the child to hold still when trying to catch all the straps. It's also very difficult to hold a child while trying to put the vest around your neck and then cling to it. Although the vest is of very good quality. I will say if my baby is fine, it needs a little patience to dress.

We bought this life jacket for our one week old son. I went through the reviews to find one that I thought would suit him. This one is perfect. It arrives much easier than I expected and suits him well. He didn't like it, but it happens. It seems reliable enough to be sure, but hasn't squashed it. Now he weighs about 9 pounds. It didn't press in the neck, but fit perfectly. Definitely recommend!

Bought a Stearns Infant Hydroprene Vest for my grandson. He is 6 months old, weighs 17 kg. We use a life jacket if we take it on the boat. The fit is good and the material is comfortable. He doesn't seem to mind wearing it and even falls asleep in it. We put him in the water with his vest on and he's holding his head. Great safety vest for toddlers on boats and in the water.

I thought it was too small for my 18 month old but it fits well. At first he didn't like it, but he got used to it pretty quickly. The grip strap is a great feature and flips it on your back. The only problem is that he can somehow turn around, which is a struggle for him and I think eventually he will give up. The design allows you to float upright and practice swimming. A bonus feature is that the front cushion prevents him from getting into the pool when facing away from the pool. In…

I was very nervous about the boating season and a life jacket that was in good working order. My daughter is ISR trained but it was still necessary to have her life jacket checked to ensure her safety in the event of an accident. I was afraid the jacket would sink her face into the water (like many life jackets with a valve on the head). As you can see in the video, this jacket naturally rolls down the back! The price is great too! I don't think a life jacket is comfortable, but this one…

I thought I was in real trouble when my little boy tried this on for the first time, he went nuts! but when we actually used it a few weeks later, he put it on, got in the water and stayed for a while. it seemed comfortable because he didn't mind taking it off and putting it back on a few times. All the adjustment straps were easy to figure out, it's a far cry from the life jackets we used as kids! I especially liked the zipper on the back which not only keeps it secure but also gives me a…

**Update** a full year later and I still love this life jacket. It still fits very well at 31 inches and 25 pounds. She can't take it as well as she did last summer. But you know. being a toddler is hard lol. I will definitely keep this life jacket for my newborn son. The quality of this PFD is excellent. **Original Review** I would buy this life jacket again! I bought this for my 10 month old baby who is 24 inches tall and weighs 18 pounds. It was difficult to find a children's life jacket in…
