Description of 👶 Stohlquist Infant PFD Life Jacket: Coast Guard Approved Vest - 8-30 lbs, Support Collar, Grab Handle, Fully Adjustable with Quick Release Buckle - Ideal for Toddlers!

FEEL COMFORTABLE IN THE WATER - Made of soft foam for maximum comfort, this child personal floatation device comes with a convenient grab collar for easy retrieval. The head support collar offers the security for them to play and be happy in the water. BUCKLE UP - The single quick release front buckle provides added security and even has an adjustable crotch strap to fit any size. You'll notice the durability of this infant life vest from the box stitched buckle attachment that'll have you using this for years to come. FEEL THE MOVEMENT - Life vests can be irritating for children. That's why we've made sure to design this infant PFD with full arm mobility so you can enjoy watching them play and swim. SAFETY FIRST - Floating in a calm, “face-up” position is not something that comes naturally to children. Before going boating, teach your child how to float safely in a pool or shallow water where the child cannot touch bottom. BORN IN THE WATER - Stohlquist products are the result of a lifetime of hands-on paddling and entrepreneurial spirit of founder Jim Stohlquist. Each model we offer follows the lineage of 40+ years of product innovation and refinement to provide our customers with the best WaterWare available today.

Four Stars: Boating

fit great and serve their purpose. BUT remember that this is a flotation device, not a rescue device! This is suitable for coastal swimming and boating where quick recovery is expected. Not suitable for the pool as this turns the baby face down.

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Some little things

Baby/Child Safety Lifejacket

Will definitely keep baby afloat! We tested it with our 5 month old baby. He couldn't roll onto his stomach and that kept him on his back with his head completely above the water. Seems very safe for the baby. He weighs about 15 pounds for reference only.

Pros
  • Very good value for money
Cons
  • Safety

Do not buy! Don't turn over baby!

Son does not rotate as advertised. Luckily we took the ISR so my son would know how to roll onto his back, but rolling over wasn't easy. If he had an accident and passed out, he would drown because this jacket puts him face down in the water.

Pros
  • Weight
Cons
  • You could choose a newer model

Bulky for small children

I am very happy with this product but wish they would offer smaller sizes like 8-15lbs and 16-30lbs. My daughter is now 13 pounds so this life jacket swallows her up. It does get the job done though and with the back panel design it feels way cooler than others I've looked at. And I understand that when she grows up, she will sit much better. In general I am satisfied.

Pros
  • Great price
Cons
  • Protection

Your child will drown

I read all the reviews before buying a life jacket. While someone wrote that this life jacket will not turn your baby over, DO NOT BUY IT. I agreed with most of the reviews on how great it was. I had a grandson at the lake at the weekend, who was the first to fall face-down in the water - and there he lay. This life jacket did NOT turn him over and if we hadn't been watching him he would have died. While it is neck friendly and looks good, it does NOT work as intended. I hope you will heed this

Pros
  • One year trial period
Cons
  • Communication with seller

A bit expensive but worth it

We have a 5 month old baby and relatives have a sailing boat. We were planning a 4 day sailboat trip and I was going insane thinking that a child's life can't be killed by a jack. After reading several blogs and reviews about children's life jackets, we decided to give this one a try, which is designed for children weighing between 8 and 30 pounds. One of the most important things is that it turns most babies around. We obviously haven't tried this feature, but it's very easy to use, cute…

Pros
  • Impressive
Cons
  • Almost everything is fine

Very Safe Baby Life Jacket

Bought this for my 3 month old daughter for an upcoming trip to the lake. She fits in comfortably without worrying about it slipping off. It can be easily adjusted so that it grows with you for several years. Haven't used it in the water yet but she didn't seem to care for the 15 or so minutes it was with her. It's uncomfortable to carry her in (with any life jacket I think) but I check if I can pick her up by the shoulder or the handle (in case of danger) without choking her and it worked…

Pros
  • Absolutely Amazing!
Cons
  • Reliability

2 year old doesn't mind

After being pulled over my head by my 2 year old daughter. (HOORAY! wait), we got this thing delivered the next day. She is petite, 24 months old and this piece fits her perfectly. Since that day a few months ago she wears this thing when we play in the pool and it doesn't bother her at all. Remember that 90% of your game takes place in the 8 inch water depth on the pool sunbed and doesn't actually "swim". She can go down the first step, which is deep in her stomach, and still walk. She even…

Pros
  • Permanent test results
Cons
  • So so
