🏊 SwimSchool AZV18861ML-Parent: New & Improved Swim Trainer Vest - Flex-Form Design, Padded Shoulders & Adjustable Safety Strap, Easy On & Off - Medium/Large, Up to 50 lbs., Pink/Aqua- 2021 Edition Review

I had high hopes for this as my 45 lb 6 year old needed a little more confidence in the pool. The strap between the legs is designed to keep the vest from riding up, but this strap just digs in between the legs, even with a pad pushing the strap up, rendering itself completely useless. Even with that strap tightened and everything in place, the vest pulled up and rubbed my daughter's chin to the point where it was red and wet after an hour in the pool. She now refuses to wear it as it was not…

I read the reviews and ignored those who said it rubbed their baby hoping it wouldn't do to my baby as it is small. Well I was wrong! After about 2 hours she was unhappy and complained. She even gave up swimming because I wouldn't let her take off her life jacket. The day we entered our apartment I saw 6 different scratches on it from where the life jacket had rubbed it to the point of blood. I didn't force her to wear it for the rest of our holiday, but the damage was done. She was unhappy…

I bought this (for my 32lb/39in 3 year old) along with the competing brand Speedo. They are both very similar. The school life jacket: - was slightly thicker than the Speedo - had a padded strap between the legs. speedometer not. - Was slightly higher than the speedometer. The padding was higher on the shoulders than on the Speedo. - Material similar to Speedo. In the end I chose the Speedo version. because that SwimSchool vest was too high around her face, it was also a bit larger (which might

I referred some of my friends to this jacket because this jacket is awesome! This jacket requires virtually no training. My grandson put it on and started swimming. Now you can't leave him alone for even a second, but he canine paddling all over the pool and he loves it! It was quite amazing to see him actually swim effortlessly! Now we can't get him out of the pool! I have a stretch on the sides for growth so it will be good to swim in the pool or on a boat all summer. And the floating neck…

We bought this for our 35lb 2 year old who is learning to swim. So far we've used a floating arm for puddle jumping and preferred it to puddle jumping because it can actually use its arms in a proper swimming motion. We bought a size up to meet the weight recommendations and while it's not snug, it's a secure fit and has plenty of room to grow. The leg strap also prevents it from getting in his face. I would absolutely recommend this. It does exactly what it's supposed to do, which is to keep…

We have a very tall, broad shouldered child of almost three years old and we needed a better lifebuoy for him. Our main goal was safety, of course, but confit came second! Pros: This vest has good stretch. It's flexible yet strong enough to be secure. Bright colors which I consider an important security feature. It's light enough for our very active child to run and play. Safety is always important, but what's the point of spending time on or near water when your child is uncomfortable in an…

My 1.5 year old is a little fish and loves to swim. We ordered him sweaters, which I really like, but my son started refusing to wear them. I was looking for something that still offered buoyancy support but also a little more freedom in the hands, which seemed to interest him. This vest isn't as thick as a regular life jacket so still gives him plenty of freedom on his stomach and back to turn around and swim easily but also allows his face to go underwater which I'm all for, like him it needs

We bought this for our daughter earlier this summer. She is 37 inches tall and weighs 32 pounds. I went for the larger size because she was just at her weight limit and I wanted her to be able to wear it again next year. Before the pandemic, she took classes at the YMCA and didn't use a life jacket. In the pool with lifeguards (and she and I) we don't use them either. But during this strange summer, which it was, we were lucky to know someone who welcomed us into my private pool. But without…
