Very comfortable

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The material is the soft spongy exercise mat feel. Very soft on the body and lightweight. Comfortable to wear and easy to put on the straps. Bright yellow so easy to spot as well.

Basic

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a standard basic life vest. The texture on the outside is a bit sticky, but if storing it on a boat you don’t have to worry about it drying out before putting it away. It does easily rip if you have longer nails, but I’m not sure that changes its efficacy. Something I noticed is that it says it shouldn’t be used if you’re water skiing, etc as you can read on the close up print inside the life vest. Kind of seems like a waste of a purchase if you can’t use this as a safety device while doing water sports too. Also, I would have liked the weight requirements of the vest to be on the outside of it so that it could be easily identified if on the water with a bunch of different people—Might not be as cute, but worth it for a quick safety check. If you need a super basic life vest, this works. But if you’re using a boat daily and want a better quality, I would not recommend instead.

Good vest

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This life vest is sturdy and durable. The Fit is a bit big for my daughter, but she can grow into it. It is overall comfortable and safe. The design of the best is your typical life vest design.

Incorrect Order Received – Still Awaiting Resolution

I did not receive what I ordered. It seems like my order may have been picked, packed, and shipped without properly verifying the contents, as I received the complete opposite of what I originally requested. This has caused a significant inconvenience, especially since I needed the item in a timely manner. I contacted Target regarding the issue, but since this order was fulfilled by a third-party seller, I was informed that they are unable to directly resolve it. It has now been two weeks, and I am still waiting for a correction.

Defective product on shoulders multiple orders

Tears in seams at shoulders and rough bubbles at seams on shoulders. If child was turning head from side to side rough points at shoulders would scratch their chin or neck. This is second one I ordered. Both extra small, both were defective. Mad because needed this for a vacation and had to return both.

So dissapointed

I first ordered a youth medium, it was too big. Then I ordered a youth small and was sent a child small. One is way too big one is way too small. So dissapointed. Both jackets had blisters on the shoulders

Defective item

When this vest arrived it had visible defects in the material that coats the life vest. Instead of being smooth along the edge that is closest to the neck, it was jagged and sharp. Unfortunately, it had to be returned. Disappointing as we were excited to try this style with our little one. I didn’t want to order another one and have the same thing happen so I went with a different brand and style.

Seems ok

First one I got was defective. See photos. Vinyl wasn't on smooth and covering everything so water could get in and weigh it down. I got a 2nd one and am returning the first. 2md was much better.

Saftey Vest

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received the super soft kids small life jacket and I'm so excited to use it with my 5-year-old this summer! The fit is great - it adjusts easily and securely to my child's small frame, providing a snug and comfortable fit. The material is incredibly soft and flexible, which is perfect for little ones who may not be used to wearing a life jacket. I can't wait to take my child out on the boat with this life vest. I feel confident it will keep them safe and secure while we're out on the water. The bright colors and fun design make it look stylish too. This is a high-quality, well-made life jacket.

Must have

We live on a lake and our boys wear these everyday for hours. They are comfortable and dry very quickly as opposed to cloth covered life jackets. They will tear at the top but we had ours for over a year before we noticed much wear and they were used everyday. We purchase these in bigger sizes everytime our boys outgrow them

Worth it for toddlers

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These life jackets are essential and are strongly advised— These life vests are life savers in addition to being quite comfortable, deserving of five or more stars. The girls can explore by moving their arms and legs to "swim" while feeling safe and independent thanks to the vest's just-right amount of support. I am so grateful to have found these and cannot express enough how lovely they are. After using them for nearly a month, my girls gradually eased themselves off of them (thanks to the confidence they received from wearing them) and are now able to swim alone.
