The only thing this float is lacking is coastguard approval. We live on a lake and go out on the boat a lot - so we have to use a different life jacket, but as soon as we stop to swim, this is the float that comes out for my little. It has been in chlorine and salt water pools, the lake and the ocean. It holds up great! Baby seems very comfortable and happy and it really blocks Sun. I hope there’s one is to use next summer!I have tried SO many floats. Both my kids are on the smaller size. I have a 15 month who is 18# so she is under the weight limit for most floaties and then I have a 4 month old. I love this float because I can use it for both and they both seem to love it! My daughter who is the older one has been super picky and has hated most things I have got her because she wants to swim like the big people and this gives her that sense of being able to do that. She just floated and kicked around for hours. Both of them seem to love being on their bellies and I love that they can be a little independent even with me being right there.I can safely take my four month old into the ocean. This float has helped us to enjoy our beautiful island home with our baby!I love this! My grand baby loves it. It is safe and is exactly what I hoped for!!My daughter fits perfect in this float. It's well worth the money. It is non inflatable, which saves the parents from having to blow it up all the time. Very sturdy. Make sure you have the extra float for there knee area, as it does help with them not flipping over. I love that where you clip them in, there's a cover that clips over the button, so they can't accidentally open it. She didn't use the canopy yet, but it will be perfect when it's really sunny out. The matetial on the outside is very soft. The inside is protected by water proof covering as well. This float eases your worries of your child not being safe in the water. Don't hesitate to buy one for the summer, you won't regret it !Our baby loves this float. It's comfortable, safe and well made. Only thing I found wrong, which isn't really anything big or important. The plastic cover over the belt release button keeps falling off. We snap it right back on but occasionally we have to fish it out of our big pool which can be a bit of a nuisance. Other that it's a great product.Just buy it! Best thing I purchased for my baby this summer. My baby boy is 5 months and can swim around the pool with his older brothers ?I feel like it’s worth a review for this float. The quality is fantastic, we have a 3mo old who loves just floating around and this is such a sturdy one too. There was only one review when I bought this one, but it’s the real deal. I had a hard time finding a legit site for the mambobaby floats but Amazon never fails.No me gusto que no incluya la sombra ni la cola. Se supone que si debería incluirla. Ni siquiera puedo o te erras por separado. Muy caro para sólo ser un flotadorI bought this for my grandson.My daughter says it's the best thing. She can put baby in it and have no worries as she also has a five year oldI was hesitant on the price but it’s worth every pennyMy baby adores it from first second. Highly recommended !Gift
