Intuitive for babies!
so, my baby has been in the water (outside of the womb) since 6 weeks old. We started with the Swimava (which I HIGHLY recommend, BTW) at 6 weeks old and around 7 months old, my baby (who is the 99%tile for all measures) was starting to out grow it, so I was looking for a new option.I found this and thought it was worth a shot. Reading some of the other reviews some people complained about it being difficult to to blow up, so I was a little worried, but I followed the directions and didn't have an issue at all.One thing I found surprising was that there was no strap between their legs! My first thought was "well, how does it keep them from slipping INTO the water?" well the way that this works, they actually lay on the white inside and their arms come up over around the top, it would be pretty difficult for them to slip through. That being said, obviously no parent would EVER be further away than fingers reach distance from their babies while around any kind of water.So, I strapped baby in and we hit the water. Baby loved it! Started kicking and moving freely in the water from the moment he got in! Its so much fun to see baby feeling comfortable and having fun in the water!Why only 4 stars? The back buckles, while perfectly functional, I feel like it could be designed a bit better. Make it easier to buckle in and out with a squirmy baby. But definitely not a deal breaker :)Bonus: the package comes with suggestions for how to use it to encourage swimming. I haven't tried it yet but I can tell we will get a lot of use out of this this summer!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great swim trainer, a better choice then just a float.
Reviewed in the United States on January 31, 2017
We love this swim trainer! Much better than other floats that keep your kid upright, and not in proper swim position. We have used this all summer on the lake and pool (from when he was 3 months). and it has been great. It deflates and packs up small so we even brought it on vacation!'

Our guy is skinny, so in the beginning, I was a little worried because it didn't seem that the waist part got tight enough around him. But if their arms are over and in the right place (we gauge that his chin needs to be just beyond the green frog) it works great. You would need to be in the water in arms readh of your baby with this product. (As with all floats). We highly recommend it to all our friends!
