ONeill Wetsuits Child Reactor USCG Life Vest

fits great on my 3 year old

Perfect! Fits great (with extra room to grow) on my 42# daughter! Soft and flexible so wont hurt/poke/etc. once we get in the water! Packed and ready for the lake!

Our child is on the top end of this size at 45 pounds, but I was worried about getting the next size up for 50-90 pounds. This one fit perfect, and was worth it as we ski/boat/swim in the lake. He did wear it once without a rash guard and said it rubbed under his arms, but no problems at all with the rash guard. It is pretty sleek relatively speaking so he doesnt mind wearing it at all!

We used this for our 4 year old when we went swimming in a lake. The depth was 25 ft and his vest was absolutely amazing!!! I felt that he was very safe in this vest. He even jumped off the side of the boat and slid down a slide nonstop for days and only developed a slight rash behind his ears where the vest was rubbing (my daughter had a different material vest-cheaper- and it rubbed her raw doing the same activity). The material is high quality and totally worth the extra money for comfort and piece of mind.

Worked great for my 3 year old twin boys. They hate wearing life vests, but they kept these on the whole time. The fabric was very soft and comfortable. Definitely worth spending a little extra for this! I highly recommend these life vests.

My son isnt a strong swimmer yet, so we need life vests for simple swimming in town pools and state beaches. (all flotation/swim assistant gear needs to be US Coast Guard approved). This was very comfortable and gave him more range of motion in his arms while swimming. Unlike the classic boxy nylon life vests, this one didnt seem to leave a red mark of irritated skin under his armpits, which is always an added bonus.

This seems to be a well-made life vest. I have a tall and lean 8yo that hates getting her face wet, which means we’ve been putting off swimming lessons for our own sanity. Now, faced with a beach vacation, I wanted something that would be comfortable and that I could trust to keep her safe in the ocean (under supervision, of course). This is highly durable neoprene material—a $20 lifejacket from Target or Walmart, this is not. I like the addition of the handle on the top and the strap between the legs. I wish that there was a neoprene sleeve on that strap as I imagine that may rub the skin and make it sore. I might order something that will work on my own. I got it on sale for roughly $60 and that seems like an absolute steal. I will update after it’s been worn consistently.

Really good material perfect body fit my boys love it.

Very comfortable

My son loves it.
