Stearns Kids Life Vest, USCG

Wonderful product that is Coast Guard Approved. My 5 year old grandson likes is because it fits better than the first 4 I got him. He is required by law (all young ppl) to wear a CG Approved flotation device while on the boat. I agree with Safety. This one is cut so he has alot more mobility and does not overheat him. Best Product for the Price - Quality Product. Tom

Comfortable for a 2 and 5 year old. They don’t mind wearing them in the boat or in the water at all. Good product, works well.

This was great. Fit well and easy to adjust

The weight range for this vest is 30-50 pounds. It is a U.S.Coast Guard approved Class III (recreational) flotation device with an "intended use" stated as a "ski vest". It has three straps placed where you want them with very substantial plastic snap buckles that don't easily lend themselves to being opened by the child. The quality of construction is as good as the Stohlquist Youth vest that is virtually identical, except this vest is made in the U.S. by The Coleman Company. You get a good, basic life vest, appropriate for a child within the stated weight range for about twenty bucks, which is a bargain. The vest has no pockets or other bells and whistles. What I particularly like about this vest is the adjustable crotch strap that keeps the child from falling out the bottom if the vest is being worn too loosely and the child puts his/her arms straight up and possibly slips out. You don't have to use the crotch strap, but it's there and can be easily stowed at the back of the vest if you don't want it. Maybe you need a crotch strap for a "ski vest," but it' also going to make the child-occupant happier for ordinary floating around because they'll float higher in the water and the vest won't ride up in front of their face. Anyone who has bobbed around in a PFD a long time knows you have to keep pulling it down to keep it from riding up in the water. This crotch strap solves that problem. I wish it were an option on adult PFDs where the waist strap has to be adjusted very tight to achieve the same result.

Very nice life jacket although I purchased the wrong size. Quality material

I bought this for my 2-year-old and it seems to fit her well enough. She is on the smaller end of the fitting recommendation so it does seem a bit big on her, but not too big. The entire vest feels durable, especially the buckles. I appreciate the bright coloring of the vest and the verticle buckle that goes between their legs for added security. My little one was able to move around in the vest just fine.

Perfect. Helped boost confidence in kid swimming in the pool.

This fit perfectly for my 6 year old! He felt secure and I felt good about him being safe in the pool.
